In the meanwhile, the Stan dard Oil interests am devoting themselves to the development of tho business as the copper producing and selling proposition and have gprad uulJy withdrawn the company from all complications, either political or otherwise. The policy of developing the prop erty from the inside and on busi ness principles which followed the vain attempt to hold the price of the metal at 17 cents has interfered somewhat with the operations of those who made a speculative font hall of the stock. While the com pany has not seen lit to render a report to the stockholders, the man agement has refrained from surround ing the company with rumors and reports calculated to mislead the shareholder, although others have kept tho company's affairs in the uowspupors to such an extent that public opinion is, to say the least, greatly confused.
