JAPAN TO FORBID
COTTON EXPECTATION

Toxic. Dec. 27.--The Japanese gov
eminent has decided to prohibit the
expectation of cotton yarns and cotton
tissues in order to check the advance
of prices. Owing to the shortage of
supply against the ever increasing
demand, the price of raw cotton has
gone up 1877 per cent.
It is alleged that this is in part due
also to speculative dealings of cotton
yarn brokers, who have taken advan-
tage of the bouyant market and the
fast falling supply to deal in futures,
The government has decided also
to exempt from customs duty cotton
yarn and cotton tissue imported from
abroad. Several large spinners in
Osaka and elsewhere have ordered
cotton yarns from the United States
and China and many Japanese cotton
mills will augment their manufacturing
capacity with spindles and other ma
chimes imported from the United
States

GREAT EXCAVATION
TO EXTINGUISH FIRE

Jerome. Ariz. Dec 27.-The fire,
which for more than twenty years
has burned in the upper levels of the
United Verde Copper mine here, is
about to be eliminated by a drastic
process of lowering sthe entire surface
Of the property to a 4oo-foot level All
attempts TO extinguish it have failed
It is the general opinion that the
fire was started by a slip in the rock
producing sufficient friction heat TO
ignite the ores rich in sulphur. II has
burned its way through veins OF cop
per. gold and sulphur.
The process of suppressing the fire
involves the removal of 14,o00, 900
cubic yards of material The area to
be evacuated is roughly estimated at
400 by 500 feet Monster steam
shoveIs are to be employed in the
work.
It is expected that the task of re-
moving the entire top of the mine and
TO extinguish the fire, will occupy
several years.
