would upset conditions here. and he
thought that beyond the stocks of COM

Copper Outlook.

Although 1916 ends with the price of
copper somewhat under the high points
of the year authorities In the trade do
not encourage the idea, held in some
quarters where efforts are being made
to dcprcss tho metal. that consumers in
the course Of the next few months will
ne able to Ill requirements at materially
lower quotations than those now cur
rent. Wal demands for copper promise
to continue active just 20 long as the
armies are in the field, and according
to many observers there will hc no
treaty Of peace effected until 1918, But
cven without the war demand Interests
identified with the copper metal indus
try point out that the peace demand
abroad will he heavy particularly from
the Central Powers, which, 1t is UNDER
stood are now so hard put that they
are substituting in the manufacture of
certain machinery steel parts where
formerly copper was used.

CUARDSMEN ARE
ANXIOUS TO QUIT
Congressman and Senators Are Be.
slesed With Requests That
Are Useless.

Washington, June 22-Texas repre-
sentatiyes and both OF the senators
are receiving numerous requests from
former Texas militia who are now
part OF the regular army or from their
relatives asking the congressman to
secure the discharge OF these men
from the service.
In order to ascertain the rules and
regulations OF the war department in
such cases Senator Sheppard called
upon Secretary Baker for a formal
ruling and was informed that the
Judge advocate general holds the de.
partment is without authority OF law
to grant discharges where the only
ground OF discharge is the financial
or personal interest OF the enlisted
man or OF his dependent family or
relatives. Where man under age
enlisted without the knowledge OF his
parents the case win be investigated
with a view to release II the repre.
sentations are found to be correct.
When other grounds are presented the
war department will take such action
as the particular facts OF each case
may seem to warrant.
With the militia OF practically all
the States now under call to duty. the
war department is going TO be slow
about releasing the enlisted men be.
cause OF the bad example II would set
and the blow II would deal to proper
discipline. Just as the suggested
court martialing OF a number Of the
Texas National Guard was a step
taken to instill respect for the militia.
so Is the determination OF the war do.
partment not to grant wholesale dis.
charges based upon a desire TO I'm.
crease the efficiency OF the State
militia.
