British Anxious to Gamble But Are Sus-
pioious of Our Stocks.
NEW YORK, May 9.-The Times
London financial correspondent cables:
Along certain lines the desire to gam
BILE never was stronger with us than
now, but we do not turn your way.
Dealings in American rails are most
perfunctory and torpid. eu
Such special articles as copper and
copper mine shares also have at present
no attraction for the small spectators.
All gambling is in the hands of big peo-
pie, chiefly French and American. The
latter have bought most of the Ana
conda shares that the British public
held, and the former own most of the
Rio Tinto. Apart from these, specula-
ton in such shares is modest in dimen-
sions, and we are skeptical that power
like your Amalgamated Copper COM
pany will hold up the market, whether
for metal or shares. Every week now
sees two or three new copper mines
offered to the British public. Some of
them will get to work, and the pro-
duction in Russia, Africa, Japan, Chill,
and Australia, as we'll as in
Spain, Germany and other countries
will increase rapidly. Last years out
put of copper exceeded that of 1882 by
at least 100 per cent. The present years
output is almost sure to exceed 500, 900
tons. AT merely $3.50 per ton this means
g35, 100000 1T is doubtful if the con-
sumption will reach SOC, 900 tons Of new
copper. To maintain the present prices,
let alone any further rise in price both
in metal and copper mine shares, cap
ital and credit to the amount of $780,
900, 900 may thus have to be found in
about IL months time, and we do not
think you can find it, especially as the
Rothschilds emphatically disclaim any
share in the combination. We there
fore consider that your spectators are
coming in on top Of the market and
some go so far as to say that the Anal
ganlated Copper company was merely
formed for unloading purposes. Time
will show English manufacturers are
curtailing their demands with utmost
rigor. One large brass founder said
he had not bought a ton of virgin cop
per during the last three months and
his stockroom is full of all sorts Of
broken up old metal. Copper brokers,
therefore, hold the view that your COM
bination must smash almost at once.
Our general trade continues remarka-
bly, good but in domestic lines more
than in foreign, and we are still haunted
by fears of dearer money coming later
in the year. The present ease indeed is
attributed much more to the inflow of
American money representing the price
of the Philippines and the payment for
your bonds which we will sell as fast as
you can take them than to intrinsic
strength. Great care, therefore, is re-
quired to avert bad squeeze in au-
tumn, and this danger, likewise, your
copper monopolists seem to leave out of
account
