NO INKLING GIVEN AS TO MA
TURE OF CHIEF EXECUTIVES
PLANS, MAY ASK FOR WAR
DECLARATION.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-President
Woodrow Wilson will go before the
joint session Of Congress Wednesday
at noon, it was announced today, and
ask for whatever action the situation
at that time may require, unless Car
rama complies In the meantime with
his demands for the immediate release
of all American prisoners and makes
a complete backdown.
Whether the President will ask for
a declaration of war, or for a resolu-
tion authorizing the use of the army
and navy in the enforcement of the de-
mands of the Safe Department, cannot
now be forecast. If the President fol
lows the precedent established by him.
self prior to the taking of Vera Cruz,
he will ask merely for resolution
empowering him TO use the army and
navy.
Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska this
afternoon told the Senate that Secre'
tary of War Baker today informed him
that the Administration had no imme'
diate intention of calling for volun'
teers; that the regular army and mill
tia forces now en- route to the scene
of trouble would be powerful enough
cooperating with the naval forces. to
do the necessary work in Mexico.
Latin-American diplomats at Wash
ington are extremely chary today, af
ter a morning call upon Secretary
Lansing, of saying anything regarding
the situation. Without exception, they
made the same reply-that the time
was unrlpe for mediation; that the
State Department was not yet in neet
of friendly offices.

BREAKS SILENCE AFTER CONSUL
TATIoN WITH LODGE AND
OTHER LEADERS; STATEMENT
ALMOST BOOK LENGTH.

Asked outside why he bolted, Parker
smiled and winkcd a. lie explained
that the committee nad refused TO ad-
NIT newspaper men; that he wanted
the reporters to hear some "confiden-
tial information" concerning Charles
E. Hughes which James r. Garfield of
Ohio and Chester Rowell of California
had ready to submit.
Asked what he thought the commit
tee would co now, Mr.. Parker said 1t
didn't much matter what action was
taken, since the rrogressives would
act and vote Independent of the in
fluence of Roosevelt, who had be-
trayed them.
Roosevelt's declaration for Hughes
has been regarded as assured ever
since his conference with Senator
Lodge at oyster Bay.
At the conclusion of the reading IL
was apparent that all prospects of an
harmonious session had gone eIimmcr.
ing. Delegates signed and motloncd
to each other during the reading and
the moment it was over MIR. Parker
vice-presidential nominee, created ex
element by rising in great dignity and
boiling the meeting. He was followed
by twelve or fifteen of his friends.

BALL GAME LOOSELY
PLAYED, POOR SPORT

While considering the ball game of
yesterday between Montello and the
local boys, one should remember the
Independent saying: always have
the proper bias for the home team"

one must say that 1t was a loosely
played game, with here and there a
brilliant, heroic performance. Judge
Taber's work on first, for instance,
and Tommy Middleton's service in the
left field-they certainly are entitled
to praise. They played well and hit
hard.
Pitcher Olsen did fairly well, in the
circumstances, walking five men.
Catcher Jones was out of form, but
young Clawson did excellent work.
Reinhart, right field, hit hard and
played a fine game throughout. Clark
had his usual pep, making a fine two
Dagger and scoring.
Hank and Casey, catcher and short
stop. respectively, did not play.
The catchers did their best, Clark
lasting 4 innings. Jones3 and Clawson
4.
Pitcher Olsen made five hits out OF
six times up.
The final score was something like
13 to IL in favor of the visitors.
The band tried to get together as
volunteers in time to practice for the
game, but lately has not been organ

BRONCO BUSTERS FEATS
CAST INTO DIM oBscURITY
BY WISCONSIN FIsHRIDER

APPLETON. Wis, June 26.-Riding
a fish and killing it is not catching it.
Such Is the decision of the State game
wardens in the case of Hiram Bever-
idge.
The water in the Fox river has been
low of late and Hiram saw six foot
sturgeon In a shallow pool below the
John Street dam. He tried to catch 1t
by the tail but failed. Then he jumped
and landed on its back. 1t was worse
than riding n bucking broncho, but he
seized a stone when the fish was
floundering in shallow water and beat
ii to death.
Hiram's knees were scraped raw
and his legs cut, but he got seventy
pounds of fish and furnished the basis
for a new legal decision TO ring dowr
the ages.

sPURNs PROGRESSIVE NoMiNA-
TloN AND CALLS UPON ALL
FOLLOWERS TO SUPPORT RE-
PUBLICAN NOMINEE.

CHICAGO, June 26.-The Iong-ex-
pected outburst of Theodore Roose-
Welt, releasing the pentuP fury of de.
feat, occurred today when the Pro.
oresslve National Committee met for
maiIy to consider Its final action
regarding a presidential nominee, and
he split the new party more complete
Iy than he did the G. o. p. four years
ago.
Roosevelts statement was delivered
by special messenger, with all the
pomp and ceremony that characterized
documents making peace or war in the
days of chivalry.
Let's have 1t and be done with it,"
was the short remark of a delegate,
whereupon the secretary began the
reading. If Colonel Roosevelt en-
pected his statement to evoke any en-
thusiasm among his former support
ers, he will be bitterly disappointed.
Roosevelt declared he had decided to
throw all of his influence to the sup.
port of Charles Evan Hughes, the Re,
publican nominee. To the end that
the breach made by himself and fol.
lowers in 1912 may be forever closed
Roosevelt called upon the Progressive
party to disband and get busy. In a
flood Of vehement rhetoric, comprising
several thousand words the Colonel
reviewed the past present and future
of the Republican party and the part
the Progressives had played in the
last campaign.

LAREDO, Tex, June 26.-Gcneral
Alfred Ricault, Carranza commander
in teh territory extending from Mata-
moras to Neuva Laredo, has been re-
moved because he refused to oppose
the American troops who crossed the
border last week. General Nafarette,
the notorious anti.American, who is
held responsible for many murders
and minor crimes, was given the com
mand. This action on the part of Car
rama means war fas far as Texas is
concerned. The Rangers are being
massed for the protection Of border

SHANNON COPPER
In Position to Take Advantage of Cur
 rent High Prices for Copper

One of the main points wherein shannon is in an exceptionally good position at the present moment is that the company sells it's copper according to the current spot prices of copper as they average up over periods of month. Spot copper has oeen quoted at premium lately as so many pro- ducers are sold ahead. In the event of runaway market, Shannon. without any copper sold ahead, would be in a position to obtain the fullest advantage.
 In view of the present tendencies evipced by the copper metal market it does not seem radical to predict that an average price of 2 cents per pound will be received for copper this month. shannon is a high cost producer. it's costs averaging probably around 12b cents pound. As the plant is only just getting back into active operations production will probably be curtailed this month somewhat, but 75OOOO pounds has been estimated asf the probable production. Assuming costs run as high as 13 cents this means earnings of approximately Sl05, 900 for February. On normal production of l,00O,0OO pounds per month this would mean. on the present price of copper. earnings of Sl40.e00. At the latter rate this is euivalent to about $56O per share per annuni

COPPER AT HIGHEST IN 40 YEARS

During the past week the price for copper rose to a higher figure than anything on record in recent history, and by recent history we mean to go back to the time of our Civil war and inc years immediately following. In July, 1864, the average price for Lake Copper at New York was 59Ac per pound, and the average for the year 1864 was 46Hc. By May, 1870, the price had fallen to 19c but in April, 1872, it was up again to 4lHc. These prices were made however, in period of deprecated currency and are not properly comparable with prices quoted subsequent to the resumption of specie payments in 1879. In 1873 the average price for copper was 29c per pound. After that it was never higher than 25c until March, 1907.
 In March, 1907, Lake copper touched 2Gc and elcctrplytic 2513c Higher fig uros are talked about and probably were realized, but they were premium prices for relatively small lots for special delivery and were not repre- sentative of the broad market How . ever, at 251hM 26c some large sales were lltttt. ltl llioSt Mtit Dlil sales, relatively speaking. On the up ward movement of 190G07, the great turnover occurred at lower levels. As the price for copper rose above 200, the ability of producers to make sales rap idly diminished. After the climax in price had been attained, the market fell away rapidly
 The situation in February, 1916 just nine years after the previous great boom in copper, is totally different. The price for copper is not only strong and rising, but also producers are still able to sell all they can deliver. What ever trouble there is at present is not inability of the producers to sell copper freely, but rather is it their inability to supply it at all.-Engineering and Mining Journal.
