If the coming summer should lie any.
thing like last i'll its run on copper for
indnstii al purposes, the effect on prices
will be very much sharper. The sea-
son begins on u better footing altogeth-
er. Stocks on hand are far lighter
than they were year ago. The Synd-
icate's Legacy OF twenty-five thousand
tons has been worked down to three
thousand tons Of what is known rs the
"Selignann copper. The stocks ut
the mines are light, having accumulat
ell less during the winter than they
usually do. From April to Novcm-
Der, when the lakes are open, copper
can he sent down to Chicago Ivy water,
and thence to New York for about
twenty cents per 100 ib'. From Nov
ember to April, when lake navigation
is cloaed. the same copper has to lie
sent 10y rail right through TO New
York at a cost Of sixty cents per 100
ib'. Only when trade is brisk and
the mines can afford to pnv the extra
freight are the deliveries as
good in winter as in summer.
1t is good sign when, rs happened
the other day, copper has to be brought
down by rail in considerable quantities
at this season of the year. These facts
apply chiefly to Lake Superior copper.
which comes on the market refined.
In Montana owing to the scarcity of
fuel and water the smelling process is
carried only half way through, and the
product is matte of 80 or 60 per cent.
which goes to Europe for further treat
ment. 1t has not as yet been much af.
fected by the improved outlook here,
though no doubt it will have its turn in
due course. Arizona copper, by the
way, has been coming into greater
favor lately, aud it sells relatively better
han it use to do. Hietherto Lake cop
per has commanded half cent more
han Arizona, aud about cent more
han Montana, but these difference are
being levelled down.

The American Copper Marke

iiC fNiiiCiiSdh SopPCI- MuTkct.
The following is an extract from
special correspondent London III
nancial Times, under date Of March 10.
The youngest OF copper-producing
countries. the United States, has in the
past few years taken the lead of all its
Older competitors. That fact is we'll
known in the copper trade though it
may not be very easy to prove by de-
tailed statistics. Any thing like exact
statistical information about copper is
much more difficult 10 get here than in
our home market. Americans, rs rule
are fond of figuring ont trade move
ments. They profess to he able TO
reckon up every bushel Of wheat raised
in the Onion, and to be able to keep
track Of it until it disappears into tue
mouth Of the ultimate consumer.
Critics do say that the imposing. look
ing record, is to large extent. guess
work, but still il is there, and it has
powerful influence on business. 1t
might have been though that when
copper became n great national product
it woul;, have to conform to statistical
methods. The copper producers, how
ever, show no keen desire that it should
do 80. Regardless of the rapid growth
OF the industry they keep it strictly on
It's old lines, each producer minding his
own business and leaving his neighbor
to do the same. They have no counter
part of our copper brokers' circulars,
with their elaborate tables OF imports,
deliveries and visible supply. Hence
American copper is very puzz ing
factor in any calculation OF tho worlds
supply and demand.
