COPPER WILL REMAIN
HIGH THREE TEARS
Valdez,—Many copper properties a
Iniig the west coast will be develop
ed as the result of copper going to
-0 cents per pound. Among them will
be that of W. A. Dickey, in Land
lock Bay, which will resume oper
ations at once and begin shipping
ore to the Tacoina smelter next week.
It is the opinion of conservative
mining men that the price of
copper will remain high for at least
three years, as the European stock
is practically depleted. Along the
West coast are a number of copper
propcttics on which work has been
done from $30,000 to $100,000 each,
but which wore forced to close when
the price of copper went down. Now.
hi-we'-er, there is renewed activity
nr d t non this time on there will be
a steadily increasing volume of cop
per '•hipimnts to the Tacoma smelter,
^oiiie r.f the mining men believe that
the impetus given this mineral by
tlie '.v: i will eause a smelter to be
's;r,b!is!;e<i in Alaska.

PROMISES MADE ITALY
BUT WAR IS LIKELY
Rome,_Definite acceptance of the
Italian demands on Austria was
made today in a letter, signed by both
Emperor Francis Joseph and the
Kaiser. The missive was handed to
King Victor Emmanuel by Prince
von Buelow, Germany’s special envoy
to Rome.
It promises the immediate ceding
of the Trentino to Italy nnd the rec
tification in Italy’s favor of the
frontier as far as the Isonzo River.
It also promises the ceding of two
islands on the Dalmatian coast ‘ and
full recognition of Italian predomin
ance in the Adriatic, thus establish
ing complete disinterest on the part
of Austria in Albania.
The letter further guarantees a
proclamation of autonomy for Trieste.
Prince von Buelow did not commun
icate with the foreign department,
but took the joint letter from Em
peror Francis Joseph and the Kniser
direct to the King. The letter was
directly submitted to the ministers,
who had previously been informed of
its contents, which are a mere re
petition of conversations held between
the German and Austrian ambassadors
and the Italian government.
Emperor Francis Joseph sent a
copy of the letter to the Pope whom
he informed of his complete com
pliance with the Italian demands.
The Emperor said that it was for
his sake—the Pope’s—that he was
determined t° avert war.
It is conceded however that Prince
von Buelow's efforts to delay the
war and to enlist the Pope’s cooper
ation have failed. The letter does
not alter the situation and the only
possible development is war.
The Duke of the Abruzzi, who, in
the ease of war, will titke command
of the Italian battle fleet, has arriv
ed at the Italian capital where he con
ferred with the minister of marine
and chief of the naval general staff.
The family of the German ambas
sador to the Vatican has left for
Germany, ns well as several officials
of the Austrian and German embas
sies to the Quirinal who took with
them cases filled with documents.

ASQUITH SAYS GERMANS HAS
BEEN FAITHLESS
London,—Premier Asquith, speak
ing in the Commons, says the war be
gun by Germany with a flagrant
breach of treaty, is carrying trouble1
to all the world. lie said that he
hopes that the neutral nations will
soon realize the fact.
The destruction of the Falaba and
the Lusitania, violating all the laws
of Nation**, civilized and Christian, as
they did. he said, is the natural out
growth of a war that began with the
ruthless disregard of signed treaties.
From the moment that Germany repu
diated her sacred word to Belgium
and to the countries which had joined
her in the guaranty of Belgian nu
trality, her course has been one con
stant exhibition of lack of faith.
She has accepted, he continued, the
doctrine that “the end justifies the
means,” and assumed the privileges
of being the judge as to the desired
end. No nation, belligerent Or neu
tral, has had any right that she has
attempted to respect.
