METAL.

NEW YORK, April 3e.-There were
no noteworthy features in the local
market for metals to-day. Tin was
about the only things changed on the
list and this was a sympathetic advance
in view of the firmness in London,
where prices advanced It's Cd on spot

due to a speculative demand prompted
by predictions of bullishr monthly

was quiet at $25 65@25 IS. Copper
In London was a shade easier, spot
closing at G69 los and futures at $40.
Continued apathy prevails locally for
copper and prices were more or less
nominal on the basis of SIT 90 for
Lake Superior and 1890 for casting
and eleetrolytic. Spelter ruled quiet
but about steady, closing 81 G2l3@

LOCAL PRODUCE MARKET
TRADE QUIET EXCEPT IN THE VA
RIOUs HOLIDAY LINES.
Prices Strong and steady with Few
observation-disclosures in All Grades
of Coai-The Cereals.

Aside from trade due TO the near APP
proach of the holidays. business is very
quiet, but no more so than is usually the
case at this season of the year. But bust
ness has been so good throughout the year
that no complaint is heard. Yesterdays
milder weather caused more activity on
Commission row and strong prices were a
marked feature. Irish and sweet potatoes,
onions and cabbage are very firm at quo
tations and are tending higher. Choice APP
piles are in the luxury list and common
stock is higher, with large sales. Oranges
are rapidly taking the place of apples, and
canned goods and dried fruit are being
used to an unusually large extent for so
early in the season.. Prices are strong, al
though no higher than those which have
prevailed for some days. The produce mar
kets rule easy except on choice butter,
which is in short supply and very firm.
Receipts of eggs are increasing but not
sufficiently to affect prices. a little mild
weather, however, would improve matters
in this line. The iron and hardware houses
are fairly busy, with prices ruling steady
and strong in tone. The wheat market car
ries an easier tone. which leads to weak
ness in prices on flour. Wholesale grocers
are doing a good business in fancy grocer
les, and sugars are moving freely. Sales of
cerealine products continue heavy, as many
consumers are substituting them for pota-
toes. Cerealine products, as well as flour,
rule easier. There were but few changes in
in coal, which advances % cents a ton in
all classes.

VISITED BY OFFICIALS.
Marconi Explains System to Governor
Boyle, of New

ST. JOHNS, N. F., Dec. T.-Marconi was
visited officially at Signal hill to-day by
Governor Boyle, Premier Bond and the
Executive Council. They were shown the
wireless apparatus, which was explained
to them. No attempt was made to get sig
mails from England because of the hostility
of the Anglo-American Gable Company.
The government officials before visiting
Marconi had to consider the protest against
their going made by the superintendent Of
the Anglo-American Gable Company, who
claimed that the government should not
Identify itself with either party. The Off
Gals decided that the scientific aspect Of
the Marconi plan warranted their recognize
ing him.
There is a widespread and growing feel
ing of indignation over the Anglo-Ameri-
can Telegraph Company's attitude toward
Marconi. The view taken by the public is
that the company, seeing that only two
years of its monopoly remain, should not
prevent the colony from enjoying the bene-
fits of the new invention, especially as it
conf system.
The Anglo-American Company's position
appears to be that it is taking action to
protect its legal rights. 1t offered no OBJ
lection, II is argued, while the experiments
were applied merely to reducing the num-
Der of wrecks, saving life at sea or assist
ing navigation by making ocean signaling
possible. But when the experiments as
stunned the form of competitive CONNER
cial enterprise the company holds that il
was justified In protecting itself.
