When the Guild was organized

thrown around it, artistic success
was . decision to produce no plays

arguing its lack of merit, the other

OF course, it is impossible to 60

due allowance for that. The Al

the first glow Of creative fervor has
passed, that state in which one is
disposed to furiously defend an idea,

perfectly possible to discuss the thing
effectively, without passion. 1t

The third Langner play. Susanna
and the Elders" which will have its
premiere at the National October
IA, was not dashed of overnight by
the collaborators. A satirical COM
edy dealing with communal cult life
which flcurished in q number of
areas in the United States at one
time, the play turned out to be quite
q problem for the Langners. Both
felt from the beginning that it WAS
q rich idea, full of drama and all
that. What to make Of 1t was some
thing else again.
1t could have been . straight his
torical play, . romance drama Of .
kind, . satire, q robust comedy, q
farce or whatever. Each had its
appeals. each its defects. The Lang
ners tried various approaches until
they finally found themselves with
q satirical comedy dealing with the
metamorphosis of Communism and
idealism into capitalism and prac-
ticality-with some incidental
touches Of robust biology. You know
how those thing are related. Or II

Many Misconceptions
I'm the case of zinc ore and
metal duties on which were
reduced SO and 81 per ton
in the Canadian agreement, an
official explanation was issued
by the State Department in
memorandum dated December
20, 1880. This showed nu-
merOus misconceptions and err
rOneOus interpretations of the
facts of the zinc industry, as
is plain from reading a re-
Spouse prepared by domestic
zinc producers Mr.. Como
yer introduced this response in
to the record.
I'm reaching its conclusion 1t is
evident that the State Department
failed to consult or ignored infor-
nation available from the United
States Bureau of Mines, govern
ment agency fully informed and in
position to submit an authoritative,
analysis of all pertinent
facts. Such an analysis, issued by
the Bureau of Mines in June. 1888,
made is plain that a reduction in
the duty on zinc would seriously
injure this important domestic in
dustry. A further analysis by this
same bureau on June 81, 1899. dem
onstrated conclusively the actual
injury which had resulted from the
treaty.
Zinc Twice PenaIized.
With respect to cadmium, the
duty on which was cut in half by
the Canadian agreement, the State
in an official release
at that time made the statement:
This metal is a by-product of the
copper refining industry, and con-
stitutes only a very small fraction
Of the value of that industry's
product. The fact is that practic-
ally no cadmium is produced as a
by-product of copper refining, and
that over 95 per cent of the cad
MUM output of this country is pro-
duced from the smelling and re-
filming of zinc. Yet on the basis of
such total Misrepresentation of the
facts, the zinc industry. already
severely hit by the reduced duty on
zinc itself was again penalized.

mittee that extraordinary Impair

1899 NINE
PRODUCTION
WAYUP

Accelerated operations and
better prices i'm 1880 lifted the
value of Montana metal prOduc-
tion IS percent above the year
before, according to preliminary
estimates for 1899 by the bur-
eau of mines. Output of mines
in the Butte district owned by
the Anaconda Copper Mining
Co. had an important part in
the $40, 800, 700 mineral pro-
ductiOn last year. Operations
were on a curtailed basis, but
increased demands and rising
prices resulted in near-capacdty
operations during the last quar-
ter of 1880 in Butte.
The bureaus report covers $50
lode mines and 265 placer mines in
the state. Several large dredge out
fits were at work Placer recovery
was attributed largely to more eff
cient equipment that had been in
stalled In quantity production each
of the five metals in the bureau's
summary showed gains in 1889
over 1888 AS to gold, the yield was
the greatest in a table covering the
II years starting with 1929.
Three million seven hundred thou
sand tons of dry ore were mined in
Montana last year, according TO the
bureau. The output of gold increased
mately 1877, 10000 pounds valued at
$7,115,955 in 1888 to about 225,600
ounces valued at $8,S46,000 in 1888,
or &c percent increase. Silver gained
SO percent in quantity and rs per-
cent in value, there being 8.89S,45O
ounces worth $6,040.160 last year.
Copper production was approx
mately 197,11O.000 pounds valued at
S20,499,44O, an advance of about 20
percent in value. The output was
42,600,0O0 pounds more than in
1888, virtually all of it being from
the Butte district
Lead Production Up
The states yield of lead in 1889
increased IA percent in quantity and
SO percent in value, the figures be-
ing 32,420,000 pounds and $1,621,-
900.
Zinc showed a production of g.
100000 pounds last year compared
with 17,6SS.0O in 1893 The value
in 1888 was $4,000 1t was 49,
694.1O0 in 1899.
Main production of copper, lead,
zinc, and silver was in the Butte
district, also considerable of the gold
being obtained there. Much of the
silver and gold recovery was Incl
dental to the production of other
metals. The Philipsburg area showed
renewed activity in zinc, lead and
silver. An increase in the silver
yield at Neihart was noted
Advancing prices stimulated pro-
duction. Operations during much of
1889 were at a low ebb in Butte,
but the improved market was a
stimulus later on. The average
sales price per pound of copper in
creased from $O09S in 1888 to
