PERRY'S REMOVAL IS
SHROUDED IN MYSTERY
Washington—The cause of the re
moval from ofllce of George 11. Perry,
United States marshal for the third
Alaska division, isa mystery in Wash
ington.
The action was taken upon the or
der of the president by Attorney Gen
eral Bonaparte, who is at Lenox,
Mass., where he will remain for the
nex'j i tvo weeks.
The manner of the removal was
most unusual, .for it is to take effect
"upon the appointment of his suc
cessor." In other respects the order
of removal was summary, no charges
having been presented to Marshal
Perry, so far as known here, and no
hearing having been given.
It is usual when a federal officer is
to be separated from the service, but
who is retained temporarily until his
successor can he appointed, to give
him an opportunity to resign pending
such appointment.
No appointment to succeed Marshal
Perry has been made. The continu
ance of the marshal in otfiee subse
quent to the order of removal and
pending the appointment of a suc
cessor, is somewhat inconsistent with
the assumed gravity of an offense
which led to summary action, and
this eircumstanceadds to the present
mysterj surrounding the case.
Marshal Perry has served nearly
ei^lit years. His second term would
have expired next February.— Post

The country around Copper Center

OUTPUT OF COPPER
SHOWS DECREASE
The smeltor production of copper in
the United States in 1007, according
to L. C. Oraton, of the United States
Geological Survey, was 808,996,491
poundB. From the record figures of
lOiMi this is a decrease of 48,809,191 ]
pounds, or 5.6 per cent, the largest
actual decrease ever recorded and the
largest relative decrease sinco the
American copper industry became im
portant. This is the llrst time since
1901 that the annual production has
been smaller than that of the preced
ing year, and the tlrst time since 1872
that it has been smaller than that uf
the second year preceding.
The total given above is made up of
the fine copper content of blister pro
duced and of the smelter output of
ingot and anode copper from Michi
gan. Of this quantity, approximately
10,075,018 pounds In blister were pro
duced in foreign smelters from domes
tic materials exported. In addition to
the domestic materials handled, smelt
'ers in this country turned out as blis
ter 64,1-15,648 pounds from foreign ore,
concentrates, and matte. Domestic
blister containing 42,350,963 pounds
was exported unrefined, while blister
from foreign sources containing ap
proximately 183,530,132 pounds line
copper was imported for refining in
this country.
The greatest decreases in smelter
| output are shown by the returns from
the three states that runk highest.
Montana's production, which was 294,
701,252 pounds in 1900, was but 224,
203,789 pounds in 1907, and the state
yielded first, place to its rival, Ari
zona, whoso production however,
showed a decreas of nearly 0,000,000
pounds, from 262,503,103 pounds in
linn; to 256,7/,8,437 pounds in 1907.
Michigan Htill holds thin! pl.ice, with
its production decreased from 229,696,
730 pounds in 1906 to 219,131,503
pounds in 1907. Decreased production
is also shown by the returns from
Alaska, Oregon, Washington and
North Carolina.
Many of the copper - producing
states showed substantial gain. The
output of Utah, the fourth state in
point of production, was nearly 10,000,
()0() pounds in exeess of that of 1900—
6(5.418,370 pounds in 1907 as against
50,329,119 pounds in the preceding
year. The production of California in
creased from 28,163,302 pounps in 1900
to 33,696,602 pounds in 1907; that of
Colorado from 7,427,253 pounds in 1906
to 13,998,496 pounds in 1907; that of
New Mexico from 7,099,842 pounds in
1906 to 10,140.140 pounds in 1907 and
that of Idaho from 8,678,046 pounds
ill 1SMI0 to 9,707,299 pounds in 1907.
Nevada and Vermont also showed pro
ductive gains.
Refined Copper
The production in 1907 of reflned
new copper of domestic origin was
781,271,427 pounds, a decrease of 103,
410.260 pounds, or 13.2 per cent, from
the production of 1900, Tho total out
put of refined copper (exclusive of do
mestic scrap, etc.) by domestic re
fineries in 1907 was 1,032,510,247
pounds. In addition to its production j
of refined copper 2o,129,017 pounds
were recovered during the year by the
regular copper-refining companies tf
the country from domestic scrap,
drosses, etc., and returns from practi
cally all the known refineries of sec
ondary materials indicate that 35,355,
966 pounds addit ional were turned out
by them as casting copper and in al
loys. The copper produced from sec
ondary sources in 1907 was therefore
somewhat in excess of 60,000,000
pounds, or more than 7.5 per cent, of
the year's production of rofined new
copper.
