The Copper Market.

The New York Engineering and Mining
Journal of the 29th December gives the
following review of the copper market last
week:
The sensation of the week, which still
continues to absorb the attention of al.
most everybody in the trade, are the pend
log negotiations between the French syndi-
cate and the principal copper producers in
this country, with the object OF ersed.
ing the present contracts, under which the
producers are guaranteed a minimum price
OF Ii cents per pound for their output.
with the addition OF hall oil such differ.
ence between ID cents and the
price actually obtained from the con-
suniers, by new contracts for an
extended term, OF 10 10 II year, at a guar
anteed fixed price OF lac. per pound. This
proposition appears to have been rather
favorably received by the principal pro-
ducers, and we are informed that an ar.
rangement in accordance Herewith
mas almost been concluded. Should
these new contracts be actually
signed, 1t seems very likely that the
price OF copper will see q further adj.
vance in this country. In the open market
mere quotations show slight improvement.
as some bears have been compelled to come
out as buyers to cover their shorts, and
prices Of Lake copper quickly rose to IL. 40
Tor December and 17.35 January. In cast
ing kinds no alteration in prices is to be
reported. and the quotations remain nom.
inally at 16h, 16A.
The Lolsdon market is also quite un.
changed, prices OF G. M. B. and Chill bars
keeping ste.dy at EFT los. @f77 IL. Cd.
spot, and f78 to cts 5s for three months.

prison and there saw several OF the occu.
pants sent from Butte. Among others was
Jack Rowand who has an easy position as
~book-keeper OF the prison. Rowand told
the Judge d curious incident that occurred
there the morning that The MINER arrived
at the place with the account OF the six
prisoners breaking out OF the county Jail
here. Clayton, who is there serving out a
sentence for the murder of Maddux, hap
was tried at the May term and taken to
Deer Lodge on the 18th OF June last. Rowand
who had opened the paper, had no sooner
read out the headline han Clayton said:
Hold on before you read it and I'll tell
you. where it was exactly" He did SO and
then a ided that the work of cutting out
the piece of the side OF the cell wall was
begun by Corey, who was then confined for
the gold brick swindle and was a prisoner
in the Jail for several months. Clayton,
who had hopes OF getting off with a light
sentence, was afraid to jeopardise his
chances by the completion Of the scheme
then and threatened to reveal the plot if
work upon it was not discontinued. Con-
sequentlJ further work upon it then was
abandoned and it was concealed effectualIy
from observation. If this account be true,
the secret was impaired to those remain
ing and the work begun by Corey was COM
pleted by one OF his successors with the re.
suit known.
