Lake Superior Copper.

HOUGHTON, MICH.-The news and
estimates coming from various sources re-
garding copper production, consumption and
prospects are of the most contradictory ma
ture. One set of economists maintain that
production is far ahead of demand and that
large reserves are accumulating, though it is
not pointed out just where these reserves are
stored. The other party maintains that the
visible supply Of metal is rapidly decreasing
and that a copper famine is liable to set in at
any time It is to be noted that these ex-
tremists are, as rule interested in cop
per or copper shares, speculatively, the bulls
believing copper Is scarce, while the bears
are confident that copper is soon to become
drug in the market.
While the copper situation is not altogether
clear, and there are some features of pc
culiar, not to say suspicious nature, it may
be said, in a general way, that the present
situation in the metal market is more nearly
normal than at any time for the past two
