RECENT METAL DECLINES.
Comment Of Editor ingalls, In the En-
ginecrlng and Mining journal.

The recent declines IN the prices of
copper, lead and spelter, and the evident
weakness In those markets, says the
Engineering a Mining Journal, are in
dicative that the zenith OF the recent
boom was attained at the end Of 1905.
and has now been passed. The mean
OF this Is that prices had been forced TO
o level at which consumption began TO
be restricted, the Inevitable operation Of
a natural law thus coming INTO play. II
is true that there has been suspicion
OF weakness In the iron market, the
barometer of trade. but because of It's
high sentimental effect and direct In
uence on the stock market. unfavorabla
signs In the demand for iron are slow to
be admitted. We are all naturally bulls,
rather than bears, The declines in cop.
per, lead and spelter may be only slight
recessions TO a sounder basis The be-
havior Of the iron market will be the
best guide as to what may be expected
of the immediate future.
