COPPER l2 TO l2l.2
 CTS. HERE AND LONDON

Heavy selling pressure originating from London, and increased offerings from second hands in this country, have depressed the copper market against the efforts of the "Combine" to hold it around the 13 cent level.
 Spot metal is quoted only 12A cents bid on the New York Metal Exchange. Large producers are asking 12% cents, but would be glad to get 12k. Amer ican equivalent on electro in the Lon don market figures out under 12 2>cents. The domestic position is influenced by less favorable industrial and political developments in Europe, especially in Germany.
 Exports in the first four weeks of March aggregated 22,941 tons. Gus tom House returns show that total shipments in February were 22,941 tons, including 2,19S from Pacific ports. Movement of copper into Japan will be retarded after next month, when 20 per cent ad valorem import duty on virgin metal becomes effective. Tariff on scrap copper and alloys, including ingot brass, was fix ed at to z yen per kin by the House of Peers. This arrangement operates greatly to the advantage of the British in disposing of their huge scrap brass accumulations.
 Price shading among the large metal selling agencies is likely to be- come a more important factor shortly. IN. Y. Financial Review.

thing accomplished in the way Of caring for ruant and
delinquent children nothing apparent the surface was

her full time and individual attention to the duties of the
position and not limit their services to drawing salary which
they have not earned
It was known whether there such official at
present or not as nothing in evidence that truan were
rounded up and required attend hoo but that an active con-
scenous badly needed the verdict of the gathering
It was also thought would prove much more etfl-
cne in the direction indicated than few Of the latter
could be found willing give entire time and attention to the
required duties for the meagre compensation provided
In fact it was generally agreed that woman was better
fitted by nature and by familiarity with the habits of childhood
and would perform faithfully the duties of the position and
for less compensation than and that woman should be
appointed and that without delay to all of which Womans Enter
prise agrees with the added suggestion that the public body with

EDITORIAL.

Silvas and Martinez, bandits, have been captured!
 Too much credit cannot be given Harry Saxon and the members of the posse who re- lentlcssly tracked down the con- victed murderers of MT. and Mrs. Frank J. Pearson of Ruby, Arizona. who escaped Thursday night when the automobile driven by Sheriff George J. White was wrecked, killing White instantly and injuring Deputy Sheriff Leo- nard Smith so seriously that he died later.
 The men composing the posse have been in the hills since the escape and they got their men," It was a real, Westerns style man hunt.
 The trailers endured as many hardShipS as the criminals, but this did not daunt the Western spirit and no string was loosen ed, no stone was left unturned until the escaped criminals were behind the bars of the Santa Cruz county jail.
 Trails were found and lost again. Acres of desert country were closely scrutinized until a slight lead was found and the trail was resumed again.
 Members of the posse did not sleep for several days and they ate but meagerly, inasmuch as but very little food could be carried.
 During the five day trail sev- eral hard storms were encount- cred but the brave men kept on battling the elements and finally succeeded in bringing the crim- inals to the bar of justice.
 Since the lamentable accident and escape, bands of men have been securing the entire coun- try. Citizens joined hands with officers and searching parties were dispatched in every direc- tiOn.
 Time and time again the cap- ture was doubtful but never at anytime did any member of the posse lose hope and they stuck to the trail until the men were found.
 This is the spirit of the Westi It is cOmmendable Spirit.- Herald.
