(ftpactel Cheat to IHInnuL
; JUddlng. Cal, March 17. Mining men
ar speculating- over the result of Judge
l ; . Morrows .decision anjointng the Moun
. tain Cppar company from running Ita
. Keewlck smelter until approved devloea
bars' been- adopted for neutralising
fumes. This decision by tha Federal
v ; court U believed to have far-reaching
effects. ' Toe Mountain company baa
' been using tha ordinary blast furnace,
with a down-take. long 'flue and high
stack for precipitation of such metal Ilea
, j , aa might be carried away in tha blast,
"V but haa not been endeavoring to. restrain
" sulphur. A. larger sulphuric x:ld plant
" has bean discussed for soma time, and
; will no doubt be constructed, but this
- - - would primarily be for sarin a , bl
' " product present' In heary percentage,
v . rather than, for neutral lain g .tha fumes.
Tha first determined action brought
against tha Mountain company wag b
the federal government to protect' the
forests neat tha plant, which were in
one of tha reserve withdrawals. This
. action' began about tha tlma that the
management wee making a prolonged
. and bitter fight against tha Western
Federation of Miners, which had de
, dared a strike at tha smelter and mines,
and was then bettered to have been In
cited by the labor leaders to further am.
. '. barraas the management..; But the tor.
ernment's complaint - was sustained tla
the lower courts, and the lata deelafoa
of Judge Morrow Is regarded as evidence
that tha courts will grant tha forest
reserva authorities Injunctions where it
- Is found that a smelter Is denuding trees
' on adjacent land. " i
. '. Tha effect Is feared. Smelters as a
" " rule are located In timbered regions, bar
cause of tha advantage of cheap fuel
for tha hot blaat and power plant Any
ore carrying a high percentage of sul
phur will emit. In tha smelting process,
fumes noxious to vegetation. If some de--vice
la not! employed for neutralising
tha poison. (Mining men are prone ta
regard tha decision Is a Warning that
tha old devloea will not moat require
ments of the courts. '
After erecting tha great stack and
flues at tha Washes smelter. Anaconda,
the company-was assured, first, thai
great Improvement had bean effected,
and that tha agricultural interest- of
the valley were Immeasurably relieved.
But since than there has been more
'complaint. In heavy days tha fumes
, freed at tba high altitude of tha top of
the stack Bottle. Tha poisonous parti.
' - cles are found not eo severe where .they
T fv fall direct on tha land, but when accu-
'. mulatlng In enow for a considerable pe-
- riod,.or concentrated in, ponds and
drainage basins, where tha moisture
quickly oxidises them, vegetation euf
'" fere.. Washoe makes an especial effort
: to- emnlnate tha - areenlc attachment
being xed .1 tha great flu for thl;
purposes and- fsetitUphurJs, eliminated
as far Is possible, j; . - -v. - " ) t -'
The- Ighf against amelUrw where they
are aituated near habitations or veae
labJ growths of ralue. Is becoming
alarming to smelter men. 'At Bingham,
c ? Utah, the determined fights of local la
tereeta threaten to precipitate serious
' trouble, and bava forced the manage
ment Into experiments that will involve
an-outlay of 5,0 ta 170,000. Tha
Olobe company, at Denver, haa Just been
aued for 1 100.000, because of Injury ta
one farm. - Tha straggle grows m'Ore
serious, and Indicates that tha mast
scientific acblevementa of metallurgist
have failed to accomplish much yet
This survey of the situation makes
' Jt more serious for the Mountain com
'.' pany. It the expensive experiments of
- other smelters are resulting in little,
and Judge MorroWa order la strictly
Interpreted, tha management will bava
