BOSTON Mass. December IL. 1,
Our Boston Letter.

BosToY, Mass, December 10. 1897.
The st OK market last week maintained
a good degree OF buoyancy. There was
nothing approaching boom, but prices
were strong and the market was fairly
active most OF the time. A cheerful tone
pervades the financial atmosphere and
the trading public is anxious to witness
an advance in stock market values. The
professional operator, swayed ouly by
current trade events has taken the same
view OF the situation and Is moderately
bullish; that is, as moderate as his ma
ture allows, for he generally is an en-
thusiastic fellow and exemplifies the
words OF the poet who said: True
friendship no cold moderation knows;
burns with one light. with one resent.
ment CLOVIS Hence it is not difficult ito
understand why the stock market should
continue strong, especially in view OF the
many favorable fatcors and the absence
OF any really adverse sentiments in the
situation.
Much comment has been occasioned by
the fact that the amount of American Sc.
curities held abroad has constantly
diminished during the past few years and
stress is laid on that fact IN the interests
oil the bearishIy inclined, but, as matters
look at present in the railroad world, the
Increasing dividend payments and the
frequent resumption of dividend paw
ments by companies not long ago in
solvent it begins to appear as though
the European investor was the loser and
the American security holder the gamer
in this international shifting ofsecurlties.
The amount OF interest and dividends to
be paid abroad upon American securities
this year will be much smaller than in
previous years, OF which the fortunate
American holder will get the benefit. The
European investor may not have had
much confidence in this country or it's
corporate securities during the past few
years. bnt in time will be an eager BUYER
OF stocks and bonds in Wall street, while
il is likely that much higher range
oil prices then will be in vogue.
Leading operators on the street are
looking forward to a bull market in
1898 and base their anticipations upon
the fact that commercial business is bet
ter than for long time past, that rail-
road earnings. which already are show
ing large gains, will continue to increase,
that our exports will continue to yield a
large favorable trade balance with for
eign nations. that the agricultural com
muDity IL more prosperous az a result OF
the good crops here and the crop failures
abroad, that money is cheap and that
capitalists are willing lenders at low
rates, although not as yet inclined to
make commercial and industrial ven
lures on their own account. These facts
favor bull movement In the stock
market and, aside from congress, which

appears rather pacific for various rea-
sons. there are no unfavorable factors In
prospect to mar the bright outlook for
the coming year.
The copper market last week ehowed
more signs OF life than for a month past
and gave evidence that tie apparent
weakness OF the past few weeks was OF a
speculative nature and not based upon
adverse trade conditions. Sales OF Lake
copper were made at IL cents in New
York during the week and the Calumet
and Hecla il believed to have sold be-
tween $500. 900 and 5000, 900 pounds
OF the metal. although early rumors put
the amount at 10, 900. 900 pounds, which
really would be small quantity for the
Calumet and Hecla's autumn sale and Is
sufficient eviden-e that the domestic con-
sumption OF the metal is far below the
normal amount. The Calumet and
Hecla. however. finds ready market for
it's production abroad and at no time is
al loss for customer, even II the home
market is glutted with surplus copper.
Last week, additional orders for electric
equipment were received by American
manufacturers from abroad, some being
of no small magnitude.
1t is now practically certain that no
extra dividend will be declared upon
Quincy this year. although the increased
by other Lake copper mining
companies gave promise that such a
good mine as the Quincy is supposed to
be, would at least hold up its end in the
dividend list.
The So subscriptions for the .stock of
the Baltic mine are reported to have sold
as high as 10&. Some holders have ex-
pressed willingness TO sell on the ad-
vance which does credit to their judy
nent il not to their foresight, as time
alone will demonstrated whether or not
