THE COPPER STOCKS

BOSTON, Dec. 3-The copper market was
boiling all day. Cananea Greene. Calumet and
Arizona. Butte Coalition and North Butte were
the leaders. II was a great day for the Ryan-
Cole stocks The break in Nipissing made the
traders nervous but did not affect other stocks.
The Boston Financial News says: The big
copper companies are beginning to get some bene-
fits from the copper that has been sold at pc
pound The returns this basis are so large
that the companies in question have comfort
able feeling, and Ii produces expansion that
can have but effect the market. The
metal conditions cannot be brighter. The small
naming months of the current year IS being
fought for by the companies most in need for
their urgent demand, and new high record prices
consequently being made. There is every
reason to expect higher prices for the coming
week. Easier money and a more genuine inter
est in the copper matters are the basis for this
belief. Then. too the speculative possibilities
of the situation are being more eagerly grasped
and better understood. and when that condition
of affairs happens bound TO see some
higher nrfceS and better activity"
