All these companies are well known
to the copper world, and have made
Clifton famous :a one of the liest and
richest districts ever discovered in
this country. Its output is now Kieater
than any other single camp of the
t'uited States, while the cost of pro
duction is less than in any other
camp in the world, hcins liarely 6c.
per Hi. The Arizona. Detroit anil
Shannon mines are making a profit on
ores averaging only 4 , copper. The
two former companies have Iicei:

lhi district have licen made in or
next to the sreat porphyry dykes niu

mine south we into the Longfellow
district, and northeast into the New
1'nsland districr. The latter company
shows at Soo feet dejith a vein 40 feet
wide, assaying S to -lr; copper. The
Clifton Copper Mines adjoin 1 he
Standard, and their property has ad
vanced in value 1,000 in live years.
The Veiled Prophet Mines lie in the
heart of this district, having the
Arizona and the Shannon on the north,
the Copper King and Standard on the
west, and on the south and east the
New England and the Clifton (now
merged as the New England & Clifton
Consolidated Copper Co.). The por
phyry dykes above referred to as car

It is a matter of record that no fail

There was ample to purchase property and establish the plant along Its original
lines, but owing to the demand for its product, it was very widely concluded to
enlarge the capacity of the mill to 1.000,000 barrels nnnuallv, thereby mntcnallv
reducing the cost per barrel. In order to accomplish this the mortgage, as above
stated, was authorized. With these additions the cost of the nlant approximates

ited, has been organized with a capita!
stock of ."ioo.ooo shares at SI par per
share, an exceedingly low capitaliza
tion for the extent' of its properties, to
immediately develop the Veiled Proph
et group. Like the Standard Co., it
will ship only its high-grade ores, aver
aging 17 copper, pending the erection
of the ."0-tm reduction plant. This
plant will produce- in :too working

The general manager, Mr. I?en M.
Crawford, first brought out the Stand
ard and Clifton Companies above re
ferred to. and has developed more suc
cessful mines than any other man in
Clifton. His faith in the future of
this company is well shown by the
fact that he serves without any com
pensation until, one year after the
company is on a dividend-paying
basis.
As working capital 2no,000 full-paid
shares have been placed in the treas
ury, and are now offered for public
subscription, at 25c. per share (par

of the directors. Make all checks,

STOCK MARKET LAPSES
FURTHER INTO DULLNESS.
SLIGHT FLURRIES IN COP
PER AND STEEL ISSUES.
Otherwise Business Is Close to
Stagnation Oriental Out
look Less Hopeful.
Now York. Feb. 2. The stock market
lapsed a further stage toward entire stag
nation to-day. Except for the factitious
activity In a feu stocks, the dealing.! were
a negative quantity so fr as they re
fieclcd any vims on conditions of prop
erties or pros-pects in the business, in
dustrial or political world. There was a
flurry in Amalgamate,! Copper in the
opening dealings on the decision by the
Montana Supreme Court, giving legal
sanction to the holding by Amalgamated
of stocks In other corporations, lint the
price of that stock only got a shade high
er than the first price, and then sagged
heavily to ll below last night. The ac
tion of the stock was attributed to profit
taking on the favorable news.
RISE IN STEW..
The rise in t'nltcd States Steel pre
ferred, on the other hand, was called due
to covering of speculative accounts on the
short side. Operators who followed the
decline last week were inclined to believe
that tiie fall had been due to the
knowledge of the coming resignation of
John D. Rockefeller, from the Hoard of
IJiieclors. Tlio shorts were therefore dis
posed to cover with the news of the resig
nation published. Some of the other iron
and steel stocks hardc led in sympathy
with United States Steel, but the move
ment was short lived. News from the
trade was meager, but the decline in gross
earnings of the Pennsylvania lines for
Dec. was counted as an unfavorable in
dication, owing to the large share of that
system In the iron and steel tratlic.
Pennsylvania's reduction in operating ex
penses for the same month w.is regarded
hopefully as a possible promise for con
servation of net earnings by retrenchment.
Uepiiits of curtailment of anthracite pro
duction, owing to poor market conditions,
were apparently ignored, as were the
rather ominous expressions brought out
in the negotiations for a wage settle
ment. In the bituminous field. The Russo-Japanese
situation was deemed rather
less hopeful for peace and this influence
was shonn In a firmer tone for grain and
a relapso in cotton.
OPERATIONS RESTRICTED.
The effect on the securities market was
largely confined to restriction operations,
pending the reception of the Russian reply
to Japan. The professional operators of
a smaller class were made abundantly
aware that thev had the market almost
exclusively to themselves, and as this
condition offers little opportunity for
profitable trading, they were very cautious
In making ventures. A Jump in the price
of United State Realty prel'-rred, was en
tirely without explanation in any news
that became known to the public. The
attack on lirooklyn Transit was renewed
and Metropolitan Street Railway reflected
anxiety over the condition of W. C. Whit
ney. Amalgamated Copper carried the
whole market with it In the lead dealings
to a level below last night, and the mar
ket closed heavy and lifeless.
Honds were dull and irregular. Total
sales, par value, J2,335,t00.
United States Bonds were unchanged on
call.

SUMMARYOFST.lOUiSMARKETS
There was a sreat deal at bullish sentiment in yesterday's local grain market. Ca
bles were generally higher r.nl shorts were still anxious to cover. Though receipts
were fairly large, the speculative offerings were small and most of the scalpers and
professional: were ranged on the buying side. The report of the Missouri State Board
of Agriculture was one of the bullish factors. It said that there had been considerable
damage both by dry freezing and by frot following thaws. The Illinois report was
of much the samo tenor. There was no 'nar news, but the strength of foreign mar
kets was looked upon as significant. Reports from Chicago did as much as anything:
else to strengthen values here. It was said that the Jlay deal there was pretty 'well
mixed and .that Armour was quietly absorbing nearly all of the offerings in the pit.
There was a good bullish tone throughout the session. The weather was generally
cold over the belt. Even a rise In temperature at this time' might be an equally bull
ish factor, as it might make the roads impassable and check the movement to market.,
Corn was a decidedly strong spot. There were many complaints about soft grain.
coming in and the Illinois weather report said that high-grade corn was scarce in that
State. There was some profit-taking toward the end of the session, but the close was
strong and higher.
May wheat opened steady anel closed ?s?n5c up.
May corn opened l-16c up and closed U"3?sc up.
May oats closed He off.
Receipts of produce were fairly large and prices of fruits and vegetables were gen
erally steady to easy.
Local securities again were active. Transit was sharply lower and United Rail
ways preferred had good support.
Yesterday's hank clearings were $10,433,712, balances 51,437,730. Discount rates wer
steady between 5 and 6 per tent.
Hpot cotton was IVic lower in the local market.

Support in the Face of Mild

Grain markets were well suported In yes
terday's market. While tho volume of
trading was not extremely larae there
was a great deal of bullish sentiment,
based partly on foreign and partly on do
mestic conditions. Cables were higher at
the opening, despite the fact that there
was no war news. Tho export inquiry
showed a slight improvement. Reports
of both tho Missouri and Illlunols State
boards were decidedly favorablo to tho
buying side. In addition to these Indica
tions there were reports that Armour
again was busy boosting the market in
Chicaso. ;
Rradstrcet's report the available sup
ply of wheat east of the Rockies for tho
past week at 1,070.000 bu. decrease and
stocks in and alioat for Europe decreased

"VnTTiorniiw eomnlnints of soft grain and

ruling lactors in corn, ine amrai Kruui
was a favorite with speculative buycis
throughout the session, though tho up
ward movement was checked near tho
close by a reportetd Increase in the avail
able supplies. The feeling at the end of
the session was strong in line with wheat.
