Opening Up Old Mines.

From The Brass World.
The great increase in the price Of
metals during the last two years has
not only been responsible for the open
ing up OF many new sources Of supply.
but has stimulated interest in old and
abandoned workings to the extent that
in numerous cases old and. half forgot
ten mines have been opened up and
have again become producers.
In this connection it is interesting TO
note that the lead mining industry OF
Derbyshire, England, decadent for al
most generation, is being revived. In
one part of this portion of England
there arc as many as four thousand
ancient mine shafts, nearly all disused,
and many Of which, in view Of the in
creased price Of lead, can be again
profitably worked. One ancient mine
which has been recently developed is
located at Carsington, in the Middle
Peak district of Derbyshire. This old
nine. which has been worked intermit-
tentiy for four hundred years, has re-
Gently been equipped with new ma.
chinery, and will again enter the ranks
Of producers. These old English lead
mines produce also barytes. fuorspar
and zinc.
In Germany the search for copper ha:
been vigorously prosecuted. In the
Bavsrisn Palatinate, near Donners-
berg, q little copper has been mined
for several years, and since the war
commenced these operations have been
greatly increased, III the course Of
which it has been discovered that cop
per was mined in this district by the
ancient Romans: Old workings have
been uncovered in which remains Of
Roman pottery have been found dating
back to the second and third centuries
after Christ. Two shafts have been
found which show that the working was
very primitive. They were from two to
three feet in diameter and from eighty
20 one hundred feet deep. The shafts
were merely sunk straight down to the
vein Of copper, which was worked as
fer as could be reached from the bot
tom of the shaft. Tunnelling /: sup
posed to have been unknown to the
Romans, or at any rate it was not prac-
tised in the case Of these old mines, as
the shafts, which are now traceable as
shallow cavities in the earth, are To-
Gated only twenty feet apart. In the
winter the shafts would FIJI with water
and were abandoned, so that each year
new shafts had to be sunk.

Caution was the dominant note OF
the short session, the stock market
soon reacting from the firm tone OF the
opening. Leading stocks were uhde'

lated issues rejecting constant press

munitions and few unclassined spe-
cialties were lower by TO 3 points,
with for Bethlehem Steel.
Among the few neutralizing features
we're the shipping issues at gains OF l

Cotton

Cotton started strongly, esrly prices
being IL to Is points higher, but they
lost just about as much subsequently
and closed virtually the same as or
Friday. The opening advance was
largely brought about by active buying
of January and March deliveries by GER
tain prominent specu alive interests
To some extent this was prompted oy
the official figures on the consumption
during September, the total OF llnt
cotton consumed being placed at 62s,zZ'
bales, against 49S,73S in September,
1915.
Demand was also stimulated in part
by strong advices regarding the South
ern spot situation. Houston, for ex-
ample, reported an active business at
the highest basis of the season, wan
dealers expecting still further ad-
vances. In some quarters the demand
was quickened by reports Of a hurrl-
cane in the Yucatan Channel, which
NAV cause loss in cotton quality if i
brings rain to the belt. 1t was notice
alb e, however, that there was little
buying by the trade interests when
have been so active recently, and this
DOSSlDlV 0bu SticAHiub W Wv "t'h NHN
increased selling pressure which soon
developed.
There was the usual weekend liqui-
dation of speculative holdings through
Wall Street houses, and the fact that
some of the more conservative firms
were taking heavy profits created the
impression that prices were regarded
AS high enough for the moment. Some
hedge selling was also in evidence Tor
the South, but this was not of any
great volume. Some sc lers were in
fuenced BY the fact that the weather
remains satisfactory practically all
over the belt, With no indications OF
frost.
Fears that there might be some un--
favorable developments in the political
or shipping situation over the week
end also caused some selling. In spite
of the lack of support from trade in
terests it was the general opinion that
the market was absorbing large lines
of cotton, with little signs OF depres-
sion. and it was especially noted that
a big demand existed for January con-
tracts around the liz cent level.
