WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW

NEW YORK. Jan. l3-Uncertainty was the outstanding feature of the dull and wholly uninterestng week in the stock market The course 0f peace ue- gotlations as reflected in the official statements of the belligerents and the response of the entente powers to this government was the most potent factor in curtailing speculations and invest meut demand
 The result of the weeks operations suggests. however that price move ments are more responsive tO bearish pressure than to news of a favorable character. Every rumor or report ndi - eating continuance of the interna- tional strain gave rise To further de- precision. while encouraging trade ad- vices. such AS the new hlgn record o- unified orders by the Tnited States Steel corporation went by unnoticed.
 Hesitation shown by investors is gem eraily ascribed to a disposition to await definite announcement of the new Brit e ish loan To be floated in this market. Details Of the new internal loan hv that government suggested more. ai - tractive offering by our bankers.
 The domestic monetary situation offers every hope of further ease foI mercantile as well as strictly financial purposes. The first fortnight or the year finds local banks with the largest reserve In more than a year and a material reduction in loans. similar showing k made by other important centeTs of finance

Mining Correspondence Course


 An important need of the state of Arizona is a method by which some of the fifty thousand men employed in the mines of the state can obtain the necessary knowledge to enable them Co advance in their work. While there is a correspondence department in the University If Arizona. il does not en- tirely fulfill the needs. This depart ment gives work at university rating for university credit, 10 count towards a degree. whereas comparatively few of the men employed in the mines have had the opportunity to get the pre- requisite subjects preliminary to these courses. To get these pre- requisites would take so much time that they would become discouraged and fail to complete their plans.
 It is proposed to have the state bureau of mines give correspondence courses to those who are not able to attend the University, the work being given primarily for the miner and prospector. nat being designed to lead to a degree. but merely to help d man better himself in his individual posi- tiuu.
 In addition to this it is planned to conduct miners institutes in various parts of the state. where the univers- fly of Arizona and the state bureau of mines and it's opportunities will he brought directly to the people to whom it owes its support

A RucN RnraaIl

Few people realize the quantity of mail that annually passes through the office of the state bureau of mines. During the past year approximately 10000 pieces of mail were sent out. This emphasizes particularly the oh- jest of the bureau serVice-in any way, shape or manner to anyone, mine operator, miner. prospector, business man or farmer within the state"
 When il IS considered that this, along with a rock analysis department. handling 200 samples monthly. a bull letin and publicity department, pub fishing a weekly bulletin and a safety magazine monthly. is done for but 5000 annually, it is hard to conceive If what might be accomplished for the people if the bureau were supported in manner commensurate with the mines and the mining industry of the state.

Special to The Republican,


 AJO. AriZ.. Jan. l3.-With nearly nine hundred men crowding construc- tion rapidly and efficiently to comple- tion. the New Cornelia Copper com pany is well clear of the delays which attended the walkout in November, since deeply regretted by the partici- pants, and the subsequent l. W. w. interferences which fer a time made general uneasIness in the district.
 During this week the second steam shovel was put m the copper pit, where 52.0G0.000 tons of ore await extraction, assuring thirty years of straigntaway work for the men going on the job and who may wish to re- main. This tonnage represents the ore developed 10 date. To is there will doubtless be added a further ton mage as time and work go along. The third steam shovel arrived during the week and .s being prepared for work. Another locomotive was sent into the pit service
 Concerning the general advancement of construction work. the following terse reports from departments tell l very satisfactory story. Railroad tracks are complete from mIne to coarse crusher. the coarse crushing plant Is aS per cent complete. a few motors alone remaining to be set: the fine crushing plant is better than % per cent complete: II of the F leach ing tanks lined. while the twenfth will be lined within a few days: the cen tral structures ale complete and ready for steel. The l5-inch solution pumps are now being installed on these structures. The bottom is poured for the solution storage tank. The iron for the concrete is placed and pour ing will begin next week the cleo lytic tank house is more than so per cent complete. over 60 per cent of the lead anOdes have been made and q similar number of starting sheets have been finished.

CHANCELLOR GIVES
UP HIS POSITION
BETHMANN HoLLWEG RESIGNS
WHEN PRINCE INTERVIEWS IN
GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS.
Emperor William Has Postponed De-
cision as to Whether He Will Accept
ChanceIIor's Resignation.-Entire
Government May Resign.

Berne, Switzerland.-Th Vossiche
Zeitung of Berlin says the German
imperial chancellor, DIR. Won Bethmann-
Hollweg has resigned. Emperor Will
liam, the newspaper adds, has post
poned his decision whether to accept
the chancellor's resignation.
A telegram from Berlin on July 10
said that 1t was the Intervention of
the crown prince that caused the
chancellor to tender his resignation.
An official communication issued in
Berlin says Emperor William ex-
pressed the opinion that the political
and constitutional reforms demanded
by the reichstag are such that they
concern not merely himself but his
successor, in as much as they would
be permanent. For this reason the
emperor summoned the crown prince
to attend one or more crown councils,
at which final decisions regarding the
extent to which the crown and the
government win make concessions to
the reichstag will be reached.
A rumor has reached Holland that
the entire German government will
resign with Imperial Chancellor Won
Bethmann-Hollweg, the main com
mittee of the relchstag having refused
to vote war credit unless the gov
eminent declares it's policy regarding
peace and reform, which the govern
ment has declined to do. An imperial
is considered imminent.

M|CHAEL|S' POLICY

NEW GERMAN CHANCELLOR HAS

result Of the resignation Of Or, Won

The new chancellOr's first step,

Kari Helncrich, aud the releasing rep

The German pepers unite IN charne-
terization OF his energy and fhlr-mind-

predictions OF his probable policy The
papers aligned for the so-called Ger
