ANACONDA COPPER
PASSES DIVIDEND
United States Smelling Cuts
Quarterly-Action Blamed
to Poor Market.

Two more importan, copper producing
companies. the Anaconda Copper Mining
Company and the United States Smelt-
ing. Refining and Mining Company. took
adverse dividend action, yesterday, the
former eliminating it's dividend due pow
and the latter cutting its quarterly dis
bursement two-thirds. In both cases
the present unsatisfactory state Of the
metal market was ascribed as the rea-
son for the directors action. This is
the first time since 1895 that Anaconda
has passed It's dividend.
In neither instance was the action OF
the board surprise to Wall Street, be-
cause It has been expected generally
that cuts of that character would be
made. That was particularly true of
Anaconda and for weeks there has been
persistent selling of the stock on the
probability of passing of the dividend.
Wall Street was not prepared, however,
for the statement issued by the Ana
conda directors after the meeting,
showing that the company had failed by
a wide margin to earn even the three
dividends It had paid during the year
and that the company's deficit for the
year after payment Of those dividends
would be more than $4.000,000.
1.-THE directors have decided" the
statement said, "that on account OF the
prevailing conditions in the metal mar
kets, no action should be taken on the
dividend. Lack Of demand for export,
low market prices and reduced output.
due to curtailed operations resulting In
Increased cost of production, are factors.
which combined, have decreased the
earning power Of the company during
the year just closing. The financial
condition of the company as of Decem-
Der 81, December results estimated. Will
be approximately as follows:
Surplus December 81, 1919. after nd
justments, &C., s6O,479,4S7: net profit
for 1920 after depreciation, interest.
losses on securities, &C., s2.5s1.s20; divi-
dends declared (three dividends at rate
of 81 a share), $6,993,750: surplus De-
cember 81. 1920. 356.077,55s. The COM
pany has, after providing for current
obligations. In cash and in finished
metals, sold but not delivered. and at
the cost of production of it's unsold
stocks, $34,61o,209. 1t has an outstand-
ing bond issue, maturing January !,
1929, of 50.000.000."
The United States Smelling. Refining
and Mining Company cut its dividend
from $3.50 share quarterly TO so cents
share The regular quarterly divi-
dend OF S71s cents on its preferred stock
was declared. All of these dividends will
be payable on January Is to stock OF
record on January s.
The company's earnings for 1920 will
be approximately s6,300.GD0 before re-
serves Of s1.400.000 for depreciation and
depletion. leaving net profits of s4.900.-
900. From that amount will be deducted
shrinkage In metal values OF inven-
tories. Reserves sufficient TO mark down

and In ores 20 present market values
will be SCI M. That reserve will not ex-
ceed $2.oooooo and will leave approxi-
