Ne1O York Metal Market.

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-The local copper
market Is demoralized. The Metals Selling
Company reduced prices 1@1Ac to-day. The
street looks for further reduction 1t is said
that the company has been making contracts
for great deal of copper at prices even lower
than covered by to-day's reduction. Everybody
seems to be at sea regarding the future of
the market. Reports current that the reduc-
ton was made as move in the copper stock
war. were denied by parties who are on the
inside The decline evidently made to try
to get prices down to a free selling level, or
in other words to a commercial basis. The
local prices are now as follows: Lake SIS BIZ

bearsh. The cash demand was slow, receipts
were LIBERAL and clearances small. st. Louis

the early trade was Of the selling kind. May
opened unchanged to Nc up at T91sc to 79%c
but soon sold down to 79c At this price shorts
covered freely and some professionals began to
acquire lines of long wheat again. The
