The copper market is quiet and without special feature. On the one hand. consumers are not buying much; on the other, producers are not press ing upon the market. Consumption in this country is very good; in Eu- rope it appears to have fallen off some- what. In some quarters it is believed that buyers, generally, will soon have worked up their stocks and that a more active market can then be looked for. We quote Lake copper at l6s; electrolytic in cakes, wirebars and in gots at 16i; in cathodes at l6; casting copper at 16sc. Engineering X Min ing Journal.

Reports received from the various
sections of New York state show
that the republicans will retain con-
troll of the lower house Of the state

a statement to the reporters. in which
