COPPER, TIN AND LEAD.
Belief That Worlds Demands VIII Overrun
This Years Copper Production.

Last week was notable In the home copper
market for the large demands booked from
Europe. Active buying for Europe began q
month go. but a few important buyers held
out till last week, when there was little metal
available before August. Buying for homo
account Is continuously good under the un-
precedented rate of consumption. Since
the beginning OF the year large additions to
many copper consuming plants East and
West have been completed, and the work OF
enlar ging factories Ia yet going on. Trade
in similar industries In Europe shows a nota-
BILE increase over a year ago. These facts
give ground for the belief that the worlds
output OF copper Ia far from keeping pace
with the consumption. There Is no record
OF a glut Of copper. In the two last great
business depressions that Frustrated our
steel and iron trades hard times did not reach
the copper mines. Outlets were found for all
the copper that could be mined, and while
iron ore mines were idle or laying of hands
the copper mines were adding to their forces.
The domestic copper market Ia firm at these
prices: Lake, August delivery. 1sH6iso.;
elect August shipments. lShmlsho,
Prime casting grades. thirty days. 1shd1sMc.
Prices OF other metals: Pig tin. spot. $3.50

LONDON'S DESERTED MANSIONS.
Fashionable Residence District Failing
Out OF Favor.

From the London Daily Mat.
Various reasons are assigned by those
most directly interested the house agents
for the migration of people from one of its
chief centres, Lancaster Gate. One has only
to take q stroll through that district OF stone
palaces TO see that 1t seems to have lost favor
with not a few of its former inhabitants, for
in every direction one is confronted with tho
familiar black and white sign Of the house
agent appealing for now tenants.
The number OF those vacant palatial resi-
dences Ia increasing surprisingly. and this
fact is having a depressing effect upon the
Mazda Vale and Paddin gton rates. The loss
last year TO Mazda Vale rates was no less than
E7, os7, and In Paddington G4,07l.
IL was learned from house and estate
agents that the causes of this desertion of
the large houses are various. One we'll
known agent attributed II to tho ~lnoreas-
ing popularity OF flats. to the servant diff
Guilty and to the general spirit Of economy
which had been prevalent since the end of
the war in all classes.
Regarding the first. he said that london
now possessed magnificent suites OF flats,
the rents of which ran up nearly TO El 900.
They were elegantly fitted. and required
far less domestic help than the large house.
There was no dearth of tenants for houses
renting at G1O a year: in fact. for each
house of this kind there We're a score of ap-
plicants: 1t was the fi50 to ESQ a year house
that they found on their hands.
As for the servant question, many ladies
had told him that "the more servants the
less comfort" Many large houses Ind been
almost reconstructed internally to meet the
servants. but all In vain, they would not stay
in spite Of enormously increased wages.

The domestic steel markets are rejecting
continuously good demands for raw and
-manufa cturCd steel and products there
from. Prices remain unc hanged. The only
cha ge talked about Ia the probability of an
advance In tin plate. TO cover the remarkable
increase in the price of pig tin. A year ago
tin plate was sold on the basis OF $40 for 100
pOunu COke plhle, anu pig IN HhS H'iu ~
300. per 10. Present prices of tin plate are
based on 81. 90 for 100 pound coke. and pig tin
is As. a 45c. per ID. For the grades of tin
plate most largely sold. the advance In tin is
adding from 40 to 80 cents a box to manu-
featuring cost.
For most sorts OF steel In use by makers OF
products In large part OF bar. billet. sheet.
rod and wire steel, the low prices at which
the great domestic steel corporations ha We
maintained selling lists for n long period are
aiding greatly In the expansion OF export
trade. Foreign makers of steel have made
within q year four notable advances In prices
OF raw and semi manufactured steel. while
our home makers have kept standing the
same prices that ruled when business was
comparatively dull. Recent advances In the
imposts of several foreign countries have
not affected certain American manufactures
Of steel as much as the authors Of the tariffs
anticipated, because OF the low prices at
which the makers Of these goods are getting
the finest grades OF steel from American
rnilla
