treatment Though muled from the

lieved that Lurklns will survive the
terrible ordeal
Larkins was employed as a grader
by the Utah Copper company and had
been engaged In the grueling work for
I the new railroad at BIngham He
had been working near the tunnel
below the Yampa smelter and It was
seventyfive feet from there that he
fell down the hole on July 5
Feeble cries for help coming from
the shaft caught tho ear ol a small
boy who was passing along the track
at about 10 oclock The lad looked
around and finally found that tho
cries were coming from the hole He
hastened to Bingham and summoned
Marshal J W Grant and Deputy
Sheriff J L FBorbus who went to
the rescue with Several other men
By means timbers and ropes the
men let themselves part way down
the shaft and then dropped the end
of a rope to Larklns at the bottom

that ho had gone there to see what
It looked like that he had fallen

feet deep
Larkins is single and had been
working at Biugham about two
months
CURTAILMENTOF RED
METAL DEEMED WISE
Messrs Houston Co say Re
cent changes in the copper market
have been in the nature of more ad
vantageous opportunities for buyers
and a fairly large amount of business
was transacted In June on the basis
of concessions which holders were In
duced to make Prices fluctuated be
tween 121 l < Jf 127Sc for electrolytic
with the tone at the close easy at
12 jI1212
Productive energies at the mines
have been exceedingly effective In
keeping down market values for a pro
longed period Copper being pro
duced In excess of the worlds capa
city to consume It prices have su >
fored accordingl If it were not for
the circumstances existing in the min
ing districts In Montana Arizona and
Utah the depressed condition of the
market would soon be replaced by
strength and activity
It is a most remarkable fact that
with all the recovery In trade and
Industry during the past two years
the markets for copper both here and
in London recently have been very
close to the panic prices of lOOT The
reasons for this condition of affairs
I
are overproduction and a heay accu
mulation of the metal In first hands
Tho statistical position therefore
constitutes a serious obstacle to mal
ket betterment Until the actual situ
ation undergoes u change for the bet
ter it Is impossible to see how the
market can become fundamentally
sound and strong
I And yet with the bald and unpleas
ant truth of tho depressing situation
to contemplate there Is no justifica
tion for throwing copper away at the
present prices It Is too valuable an
article to sacrifice for a pittance of
profit To glut the market further I
however wIth u superfluous output
and which later might easily become
a source of splendid revenue Is a
policy out of harmony with tho genius
of enlightened management Let an
other natural product be treated the
way copper has been recently and
whore It will land commercially
Every market of the globe feels the
effects of an unusual oversupply and
the demonstration of tho ability to I
I flood consumers with any of the raw I
materials will act In but one way A
universal lack of confidence follows
i
such a course The uecesolty for cur
tailment In copper production Is glar
ingly apparent and unless thlsrwin
edy Is applied the stupendous mistake
of unchecked production will be felt
even more keenly than at present

gftc BRITISH CRISIS
VI HIS BRITANNIC MAJESTYS ARMY
By FREDERIC J HASKIN
LONDON July lOOf the twenty
five principal nations of the world
only three depend entirely upon vol
untary enlistment to supply their
armies These three are tho British
Empire time Chinese Empire and the
United States of America It has
been one of Britains proudest boasts
for two centuries that It always could
rely upon a sufficient number of pa
triotic volunteers to fill Its army and
that It need not enforce conscription
American thought has followed in the
British path and the entire English
speaking peoplo has been united In
considering compulsory military ser
vice incompatible with free institu
tions and democratic government
With respect to the army moro
than In any other way the republican
America and the monarchical British
always hnve been more democratic
than any other nations Monarchical
Germany republican France and pa
triotic Japan are most strict among
time sixteen nations which compel
every ablebodied man to servo a cer
tain time in the army Decadent
Spain and Portugal no others depend
entirely upon forced conscription in
which men drawn by Ipt are com
pelled to serve with the colors 1
Now comes a strong party in Eng i
land demanding that Great Britain
turn Its back on the democratic past
and Institute a system of universal j
compulsory army service The Chi
nese government Is making plans
looking in tho same direction The
United States Is to be left as the solo
exponent of the volunteer system j
The reason for tim CHange of atti
tude on the part of many English i
non is the menace or the rising Ger i
man power The fear of Germany IK
the mainspring of much revolutionary
thought In this country Until now i
there has been no reason why Great j
I
Britain should demand military ser
vice of all Its young men Volun
tary enlistment kept up the necessary
fcrce and England although govern I
ing the greatest Empire ever sub
ject to one crown hag never needed
l
a grqat army
In the Eighteenth Century when
England laid the foundations of the
present Empire It tho seven years
war with France Ihe British depend
ed upon others to do their fighting
The Gannans did It for them In Eu
rope and wero well rewarded with
substantial subsidies The American I
I coloqists aided them in America and I
added Canada to the British domin
ions In the last quarter of that cen j
tory England was unable to defeat J
her rebel colonists In America al
though she hired German soldiers to I
light for her Then the thirteen col
onies were lost and England learned
a lesson and ever since has so gov j
ornod her pnasesplons that force has
seldom been required to back up di
plomacy I
At tho dawn of Nineteenth Cen
I tummy Napoleon threatened the British i
supremacy but Englanli did compara j
tively little fighting on land Subsi I
I dies were paid to Ihe German armies
and the brain of aPitt battled for
Britain in lieu of legions Welling j
ton conducted the Peninsular cam i
paign and was captain on the glori
OUB field of Waterloo but it was Nel I
son and the navy not the Great Duke
I
that saved England t German soldiers
wero fighting for British supremacy i
then y I
I thenWith the donwfall of Napoleon and I
the lawn of tho modren age of ma
chlngrj Great Britain at once began
to realize the fruits of Its maritime
supremacy and Its splendid Isola I
lion Continental Europe Indulged
in a long series of bloody wais Ger
many was only a nanifc for a score of
Quarreling states the French imperial
Instinct died on St Helena While
tlicsq other nations were at war Eng
land was waxing rich in commerce
Only the Crimean war in whl6h Eng I
Kind did not light alone and the Indian
i
dian mutiny seriously Interrupted
eight decades of profound peace
Then came the Boor war For the
first time In Its modern history Great
Britain faced an embattled nation
alone There wore no Prussian allies
I
lies no Hessian mercenaries Tho
Boer republics were small and pov I
ertystricken and England imagined
that the war Would be brief and In I
expensive The navy could do nolh
II lug for this was a land light a cam I
jalgn in which tho British wore on I
the offensive The jnagnlfllcent pa
Iriollpm of the British peoplo at
homo and in the colnles responded
to the unexpected call and thousands I
upon thousands of volunteers donned
the kings coat and went to the South j
African war But itcost many lives II
and pioro than a billion and half dol j
lars pf treasure
I
Thc inefficiency of the British reg
ular army was proved in the Boer
war Ever since that time the Im I
perialistic party In Great Britain has
been demanding a greater army Dur
ing the pnat year under the Influence
of tho German scare this demand has
sweljpd Into a great chorus which
threatens to drown out all other
questions except those concerned with
I the navy
The territorial forces an organized
militia of a nominal strength of J510
000 and having 210000 effective men I
Is the concrete result or Oils aglta

tlon But time voluntary enlistment
principle has been preserved Intact
Tho territorials are onllsted only for
home defense and may not be used
except in the British Isles rhey
are In fact a militia organized for
the purpose repelling an invader
should the navy fall lo preserve the
inviolability of British shores The
torrllorlals may be compared to the
militia in those American states
whose national guard is rated as first
class They have a curtain amount
of regular drill work some special
Instruction and must spend several
weeks each year In maneuvers The
territorials are however much more
closely related to the regular army
than tho American militia Each ter
ritorial organization Is connected
vIth some regiment of regulars and
tho men hap the benefit of Instruc
tion from regular army officers
The Boy Scouts are another re
sult of the German scare They arc
young boys In school who volunteer
to submit to a certain amount of mil
itary discipline and training They
ccrrospond to the high school cadet
corps of American cities oxcept that
Gen BadenPowell nas appealed to
I boy nature by substituting a khaki
I uniform and a combination of wild
west and South African scout drills
for the more formal and exacting
dress and duties of a cadet
The territorial volunteers tho boy
scouts the Girl Guides and the Im
perialist agitation generally has had
the effect of awakening a patriotic
interest in the army which Britain
I Brlnl
never before has pasBCBBod Mr
Kiplings scolding Is no longer need
ed The English are frightened and
they are enthusiastic about their
army in spite of popular excitement
however the socalled Blue Water
school maintains the ascendancy and
British relies upon us navy to save
It from Invasion This implicit trust
Ir tho navy Is probably the only rea
son why compulsory r military service
has not been adopted I tho Con
servative party should again comp
Into power It Is probable that some
s > stem of universal service will be
instlluled
The British army is quite small
its regular force at home and abroad
exclusive of India amounting only to
170000 men or aboutIwlce as many
as the American standing army At
least 70000 of these men are requir
ed for garrison duty abroad The
regular establishment in India com
prises about 75000 white men Tho
native army is more than 115000
strong Including the colpnlal mill
thus the army reserves the territo >
rials and all othei orcej composed
01 while men the total strength of
the British army is CSOOQO men Malt
ing similar inclusions Germany has
more than four million soldiers and
hurts practically all of them at homo
The United Kingdorii of Great Brit
ain and Ireland ever since the Boer
war has spent from 125000000 to
150000000 a year on Us army prac
tically tho same as s spent by the
United States But India also spends
100000000 a year on the army and
other parts of the empire expend
60000000 If the entire British army
01 800000 men Burtsh and native
Indian be considered the annual
cost Is 300000000 or more than a
hundred millions a year more than
Germany spends to hialntaln Its Im
mense military establishment
Compulsory universal service and
small pay of the officers and
ofcers men en
ables Germany to maintain Its vast
ly superior army at only twothirds
of the cost of the inferior British
army I Groat Britain must fight
Germany for Its life andi empire It
behooves the Britlsi to be more
economical This aigument Is the I
greatest weapon in the hands of tin
Imperialistic military party In its at
