THE COPPER MARKET.
What the New York Financial Sharps
Have to Say About 1t.

Tho copper market is stationary as tc
price. and very active-booming, in fact, az
to consumption, says the Engineering and
Mining Journal of last Saturday. The
prices obtained are, 10 cents for Lake 10,
domestic sales, and 9X@9.9Oc. for export
The foreign market has fallen off, and the
demand from that side has ceased, SO that
the higher prices quoted some wesks age
for small lots are no longer obtainable
The sales of the Lake companies have
practically covered their output to the
present time, and there are no large stocks
and the market is in an excellent condition
for an advance should the foreign market
justify it. The sales OF Orford and
Baltimore. and especially OF the former
have been very heavy during the past
month, heavier, in fact. than in any pre-
viOus month this year. On every hand
the reports assure US that consumption il
very much heavier than it ever was before
and production is falling off, except in the
lake district, and even there the increase
will be small; Tamarack producing lesf
than was expected, and the recent Allouez
strike not apparently amounting to very
duced last month much less than its aver
output, and only the Anaconda will keep
up to last years production. In Arizona
it is probable that the Queen will take a
rest while making furnace repairs, ETC., 90
that the increased consumption will leave
but very moderate amount to 60 abroad
though recent sales of Lake may give the
erroneous impression abroad that our old
rate of export is going to be renewed. The
prices at which Orfold and Baltimore are
sold are, in many cases. very low, proba'
bly, below 81 cents, except for fancy brands
and electrolytic, which command more
For foreign sales, Arizona pig would
scarcely bring more than Shc., or Baltimore
ingot more than &c.; it is. therefore, better
that the copper should 60 out in the form
of furnace material than as ingot. The re-
port quoted below from Messrs. James
Lewis & Son, that sc, 600 tons OF American
ingot, 5000 tons of which have been re-
fined from Anaconda matte at Baltimore
are offered for sale for early delivery is
highly improbable. and we have been una
BILE to confirm it. There are no large stocks
OF copper anywhere in this country. Chill
Bars are quoted f39 1Os., which is again q
little lower. B. 8. f44.
The Financial and Mining Record OF the
same date says: The demand has con
tinued almost wholly OF q retail character
and in the absence OF important :sales
values are nominal. In small way Lake
has sold at 1OS to 1Oh cents, but round
lot could not be placed at over &C
cents, although there have been no sellers
at this figure. Consumers generally have
covered their present and future wants
from the recent Calumet and Heela sale SC
that there is little or no demand. Outside
brands are nominally quoted 81 to s.
cents but it would be difficult to sell al
these prices. In London Chilli Bars have
ruled steady at f39 lis Cd.
