The Metal Market.

New YORK, Friday Evening, Dec. IS.
COPPER market is thoroughly
demoralized by the happenings of the
past week, and there have been sales of
Lake copper at 11%@11Hc., and even
below this under exceptional circum-
stances. It would be impossible to
quote other brands higher than 1910
10Mc.
Mathews & Webb's, Denver, circular,
of December "a, says: Copper, like the
celebrated Humpty Dumpty, has had
a great fall, and all the kings horses
and all the kings men cannot pull cop
per up again. /" The keen and quick
witted Yankee has been completely out
generated by the methodical and slow
moving John Bull in one of the clever
est transactions that has been witnessed
for a long time A deal that was as
shrewd as the celebrated stroke of the
Standard Oil Company. London oper-
atorS purchased some 10000, 900 or To-
100000 pounds of Lake copper on a
sliding scale and also an enormous
quantity AS our readers have been ad-
vised-of Idaho and Montana Copper
Matte, but our wary Americans feared
that the best selected might be man
ipulated, and with great caution made
the basis of the transaction "Chili Bars,
whereupon our English cousins lock up
best selected at the price of ESQ and
drop Chill Bars to EAT Is, to which on
the Lake "a is added for market price,
with net result of f51 Is as the price
the Lake is now being taken an at, which
is a nice 93% profit below best selected
and leaves on the Matte bought. also on
the Chill Bar-basis, very liberal profit.
Whether and how this ingenious little
game came can be played by the cock
neys at the expense of the Americans
remains to be seen, and will be most in
teresting. At New York Lake has been
sold as low as IL cents, and other brands
are not worth over 10H to 1034. The
greatest caution, however, is being
manifested on all sides, and especially
in future transactions, for when the
giants are at play it is risky for the
dwarfs to be in the way.
