MERGER OF COPPER INTERESTS
Phelps Dodse 3k Co. Properties
Are te Re t a I ted la Fifty
Million-Dollar Cor-'
poratlon.
NEW YORK, Dec. 11. The representative
Iron and steel manufacturers from all over
the country gathered at the Waldorf
Astoria tonight at a dinner given by E. M
Gary, chairman of the United States steel
corporation. This Is ths second Sllnner of
Its kind, the first having occurred a year
ago. The purpose Is to bring the manu
facturers together to discuss the Interests
of the trade and to bring about a friendly
co-operation of the different Interests.
Mr. Gary, the chief speaker, said ths
gathering was to "consider a proper
method of distributing our thought and In
fluence to aid In the effort to prevent
disaster to the business Interests! of this
country."
"That some and perhaps many of ths
leading thinkers and writers have mis
Understood our action Is probable," he con
tinued. "Some at least have questioned
the propriety, If not tht legality of our
efforts and apparently others have be
lieved these efforts would be of no sub
stantial benefit, but we knew our motives
were good. We have never Intended to
antagonise the laws of the country or
rights and Interests of any one. We have
occasionally read published criticisms of
our movement on the ground that there
waa a combination or agreement, express
or tmplled, to maintain prices, to restrict
output or to divide territory. Rut the fault
lies In the unjustified assumption of fact."
Mr. Gary declared the steel manufac
turers never Intended or resorted to any
evasion and that an effort would be made
to right whatever Is wrong.
"As to the results of our efforts to co
operate," he continued, "there Is no rea
sonable doubt they have been of great
benefit. The prices have been uniform
and they have' fluctuated more or leas
from time to time. Some manufacturers
have not been as considerate of the In
terests of others as they could have
been. Perhaps all of us have been In
fluenced by motives of selfishness. But
I do not hesitate to say our movement
has prevented wide and sudden fluctua
tions and destructive competition."
New Copper Combination.
The various copper properties of Phelps
Dodge & Co., tho output of which
has been as high as 100,000,000 pounds a
year, are to be merged Into a new corpora
tion, capitalized at S.,000.000. The old
firm will go out of existence on January
L and In Its stead will be formed a stock
company to be designated at Phelps Dodge
& Co., Incorporated.
The new company will take over the
Copper Queen Consolidated Mining com
pany, the Montezuma Copper company, the
Detroit Copper Mining company of Arizona
and the Stag Canon Fuel company. The
old firm will transfer Its metal selling
business and Its good will to the new cor
poration without charge and go into liqui
dation. The majority of the stock Is now owned
by James Douglas, Cleveland R. Dodge,
Arthur Curtis Gaines, James McLean and
their families. It is proposed to list the
new stock in the New Tork and Boston
stock exchanges.

Announcements of the Theaters.
The coming of Mary Shaw in "Revela
tion" to the Boyd theater on Sundny night
promises a splendid chance to the peoplo
who enjoy a strong play well enacted. No
question exists as to Miss Shaw's position
In the world of ths stage. She Is In tho
front rank, and any play that gets her
rerlous attention Is well worth while. "Tho
Revelation," la the first of a series of
three, a trilogy dealing with the personal
equation, by Rev. Henry J. Knott, a Chi
cago minister, who has turned his attention
to literature. In Chicago tho press was
unanimous In its praise of the work of
the new author, and also in the presen
tation of the drama by Miss Shaw and her
associates. It will be offered at the Boyd
on Sunday and Monday evenings of the
coming week. '
This week's big bill of advanced vaude
ville at the Orpheum will be concluded
with this evening's performance, curtain
being raised at S:i&. Sunday, matinee a
new program, headed by Charmlon, the
world's perfect woman, will be presented.
Ben Welch, Violet Black and campany and
the Astalrea have made many friends this
week. The Astalres are Omaha young
people.
The success of "Salome" at the Burwood
theater continues unabated, the house be.
tng sold out at every performance. Rarely
la an opportunity given to see so superb a
production as Is this week's attraction. The
staging Is nothing short of gorgeous and
"Salome" could not be Improved upon. Cor
rect Is the belief of the thousands of vis
Itors to the Corn show that their trip Is
not complete without witnessing this great
dramatlo work of Oscar Wilde at least
once. There will be a matinee today.
