but Hugo points to the plumbers as the great index and states that they are all busy and the business
 a lucrative one. Concerning prices of food commodities, he says that We may look ahead to some very stiff prices this year, due to immense losses through the freezing of perishables, also to the war. At the time of writ ing, January 20, all cereals had raised considerably and prices were high in all farm and dairy products. Butter was selling at soc and eggs were soc and 6oc.

up because it couldn't pay the dent. He says Breeding talks of
 going back to Nome and all the
 Alaskans are passing Seattle up. Also says that the saloonmen who have staid in business are much better satisfied than when they were selling booze. The soft drink trade is good and the ma jority claim that they are better off, first, because they do not have to pay license and second. they can stay open unlimited hours and there is an added relief in that there are no intoxicated people around. Also they claim to make more profit on the drinks served than was possible on the goods formerly handled.

GREATEST PRODUCTION
 OF ANTIM0NY ORES

more antimony were in demand, but before the close of the year 2J per cent ores were being shipped from Nevada.
 From Alaska, according to data collected by Alfred H. Brooks, about 685 tons of stibnite ore car rying 58 per cent antimony was produced in the Fairbanks dis trict. It is reported that I32 tons were shipped from Nome, but probably more was mined.
 The largest production was made from deposits near Wild Rose Spring, in the Panamint range, Cal. Other deposits were mined in California-at many places in Kern county, in the east ern end of San Benito county, and
 AIoore's flat near Grass valley.
The Nome daily nugget., 1916-03-16

In Nevada considerable quanti- ties were mined at many places,
 most of them in the northwest Iuarter of the state. Oregon,
 Washington and Idaho produced small quantities of ore, and in Arkansas a company was organ ized to work old properties west of Gilham.
 The present high prices are of course temporary. The Chinese deposits are large and are worked by very cheap labor, and deposits Ire being developed in other parts of the world, so that as soon as the war is over, and possibly be fore, prices will probably drop nearly to a level with those of IQI4.
The Nome daily nugget., 1916-03-16

The prices of antimony in 1915 were probably the highest known since the metal became a regular article of commerce. The highest prices were naturally reflected in the largest production made in the United States, and probably the same statement is true for the worlds production.
 According to preliminary fig ures collected for the United States Geological Survey by F. l., Hess, the production of antimony ores in the United States is esti- mated to have been about 5000 tons, containing about 2,ooo tons of antimony, valued at about about $325,ooo.
 The price, witch in July, 1914, had been dowA to a monthly av- craze that ranged from 5.44 to 7.II cents pound and depended on the brand, rose gradually though unsteadily, to the end of 1915, when Chinese, Japanese and American antimony were quoted at about 40 cents pound.
 Miners and smelters, apparent ly thinking that the high prices would not be held long, did not begin production as quickly as they might have done, but before the close of the year properties in Alaska, California, Idaho, Ne vada, Oregon, Utah, and Wash ington were producing. Prices for ores ranged from $I to $2.1o per unit of antimony. At first only ores carving so per cent or

HUGO BEYER WRITES
 IN NTEREST|NG LETTER

Writing to James Swartzel, the genial boniface of the Golden Gate, Hugo Beyer gives Seattle weather some severe digs and in cidentally draws a very gloomy picture of the outlook for the United States when the entente allies get to manufacturing their own war supplies, as he ayers they are preparing to do by pur- chasing machinery of every de- scription in wholesale lots.

WILSON ISSUES WARNING TO ALL BARGAINS.

WASHINGTON. D. C. Mar. 26.- In the morning papers today Presi- dent Wilson is quoted extensively as to his ideas on the Mexican sit uation. His statement is in the na- ture of warning for he says illat the talk now being engaged in on all sides c nates baseless rumors to the effect that the United States is making war on Mey,co, and he says that that is not true in any sense of the word. Continuing. he is reported as having said that the impression that this country intends to make war on the southern re public should be discredited every where General Pershing's expedi- tion is only punitive he says, it's only object being to capture the bandit Villa.
 The President further asserts that he believes sinister influences ir this country are seeking by rumors to inflame the Mexican people, in order to provoke intervention on the part of the United States. And such intervention, he thinks. would be big mistake

AKRON, Mar. 26.-Charles Bar. Der, millionaire match manufac- turer, today sent preparedness plan to the President and a num- Der of congressman, which he urges that they give consideration. The plan includes the provision that the government own all armor plate plants in the country; that the railroads of the country be compel led to give a preference to the ship ping and handling of steel and mu- nitions of war; and that the United States purchase and maintain all strategic railroads in the country, SC that guns and munitions may be transported with facility.

 MT Barber, before submitting his plan, obtained the opinions of a great number of military and naval experts, who approved his ideas.

It is admitted however, that the differences exist ing between the nations, relative to the searching of Japanese yes sells, has been made The foreign office concludes by saying that the adjustment was entirely satisfactory to the Japanese government.
 Owing to the slight breach in the relations, because of searching of these vessels, there was semi ment of resentment throughout the empire against the British and
