G. D. Hurlock, c. L. Hurlock and
 J. B. Ewald of Cleveland Ohio. and
 Edmund Smith of Seattle Washing
 ton, arrived in Cordova last week
 from the Kotsina river distrct where l they have spent the past several weeks inspecting the Hurlock inter- tests mining properties, The CoDDer
 River Copper Mines of Alaska. and upon Interviewing Judge Smith, chief
 counsel for tho Hurlock interest if
 was learned that everything at both
 the lower and the upper mine camp
 IS moving along in fine shape. At the lower camp eighteen buildings and structures have been erected for the convenience of the marlagement and employees, and eight buildings and structures at the upper camp. Everythin@ is housed in permanent and satisfactory structures, the two camps making the finest, best equipp- ed, most comfortable and sanitary mining camps in the Territory. Be- tween the lower camp and the upper mine camp distance of two and nalt miles, wagon road has been constructed and is one of the finest roads in Alaska A Ford truck car -ies supplies and men between the :wo camps as required.
 At the mine We found all matters connected with the mine deyelope- | nent going along in regular fashion" aid Judge Smith "A hoist is being erected at the Mullen mine and at 10th the Mullen and Sport workings Ee found two shifts of miners dig ing into the ore, so we feel confi- ent now that 1t is only a matter of
 short time until the property will evelop into another Alaska copper line. The ores found in place so 1T and all the formations encounter d are similiar to the ore and for lations found at Kennecott and lother Lode at the same stage Of evelopement, therefore, MT. Hurlock feels very optimistic, and 5 the enterprise is financed for 1927 5, two shifts will be employed lroughout the entire winter on both le Mullen and Sport claims. The 'operties being developed are the
 ullen, Sport and Angle patented de mining claims which were ought from the Gelene Bay Mining ompany and several additional lode aims adjoining the above which ere located by MT. Hurlock. MT. larles Simenstad, the we'll known ming engineer is in charge of this ork as managing engineer.

j. Ogden Armour

Giant-like in, the twilight of the nations as the
World War ended doomed the figure Of j. Ogden
Armour
His stock yards encircled hemisphere, and the
stamp of cattle through his pens was never-endng
sound. His grain elevators were landmarks through
the prairies. All the West was his counting room.
His banks groaned with the load of his gold.
And the future seemed even brighter for him than
the past, for Europe was hungry and he possessed,
more than any other man on cath, the commodities
most needed, meat and wheat.
Today Armour lies dead in London and except
for several millions given in trust to his wife and
daughter years ago, his vast fortune has vanished
He died Tuesday, but his world came to an end
in 1921 when markets for meat and wheat collapsed,
sweeping $1Oo,OoO0OO to $15ooOoooO from his hands
in four months time
Government records tell the story in cold figures
During the war the United States food admin
istration kept the average price of hogs stabilized
around s175o per 100 pounds. In March, 1919, when
all restrictions removed speculation began and
by July, 1919, peak was reached of $2sSo BY end
of the year the price had sumped to $13 During the
first half of 1920 there was rally, the price hang
ing around SIS. BY the end of 1920 the price had
fallen to SO.
Beef sold at $1935 per 100 pounds in January,
1920 By the first week in April the price had sumped
to 1888.
Wheat sold at $2.96 bushe in May, 1920 BY
November 1921, the price had slumped to $1os Corn
sold for s1s7 bushel in May 1920 and for As cents
a bushel In October, 1921
Armour found his world crashing about him. He
was heavily interested in the Chicago Milwaukee g.
ST. Paul railroad The common stock sold for s92
in 1917 and for SLIPS in 1928 He backed the Suffer
basin irrigation project in California guaranteeing
$l8ooo.ooO worth of its bonds The project was
caught in the general agricultural slump
Edward NJ Wentworth, official of the present
Armour Co., gives the following explanation of the
crash During the the packing industry felt itself
strong enough to bear its own burdens without GOV
eminent aid Had the industry been financed by
government, as many other industries WERE Mr.
Armour would probably have been able to survive the
defation period"
Around the Chicago Board of Trade it has long
been rumored, however, that the crash was caused
primarily by Armour's grain specuations According
to this theory he used solvent packing interests in
vain attempt to save sinking ship.
The truth will probably be known until some
biographer gains to the private papers of the
Armour family.
