Walkers Weekly Copper Letter.

Copper continues dull, but the large
PRODUCERS are holding prices firm not
withstanding the declining quota
tions of standard warrants in London
and the combined efforts OF certain
speculative interests to bring about
decentralization in the trade. There |
is very little business being done at
the moment at any price, and 1T Is
safe to say that the leading produc-
ers will make no further reduction IN
prices until the large consumers
come into the market. Prices Will
then be adjusted on basis that will
be satisfactory to both consumers
and producers.
The producers are believed to have
less than a months production OF
conner on hand. The monthly pro-
duction of refined copper in the United
States, plus imports, in round num-
bers amounts to about lOO,OOO,OOo
pounds. One producer states en-
phatically that there is now more
than $4,000, 900 pounds of immediately
available copper in the hands OF the
producers and consumers. On the
other hand, the consumers have mol
bought any copper to speak OF since
early in March, a period OF nearly
five months having since elapsed
Some of the largest consumers admir-
that their stocks of copper are al
most entirely exhausted, and tina
they will have to enter the marke
very soon.
At present the Lake producers ar
holding their copper at p cents
Phelps, Dodge & Co. and the Unite
Metal Selling company are maintain
ing their price of 21a to p cents pc
pound TOR electrolytic copper. Sma
lots of copper are reported to haV
sold as low as 20 cents, but confirms
ton of these sales seems to be lac
ing.
One of the largest manufacture
of copper wire and cables say
"We are Just recovering our brea'
after the greatest period.of activl
that we have ever experienced IN Il
trade, and which practically carrl
ms off our feet. There is falling
in new business, but the outlook
the future is very good, and we
now doing what would call norm
amount of business. This let-up
allowed US to run little longer
our supplies of copper than we
expected, but our stocks of the me
are now nearly exhausted; howev
we would like to see more sett
conditions in the market before b
ing new copper.
s.The stringency of money has,
our actual knowledge, delayed tt
porarily large consumption OF c
per in new electrical enterprises,
we find that some of our custom'
who are in actual need of a la
amounts of wire and cables,
withholding orders, believing t
there will be an immediate declin
the price of copper, and they are
sorting to makeshifts of pate
cables and wires meanwhile. III
is undoubtedly large volume OF
business awaiting more settled co
tions in the metal market"
The copper market is in sc
condition, Notwithstanding the
nostications of calamity. Produc
this year will be at least D per c
under that of last year, and cons'
ton, even with a falling OFF in a
business up to 20 per cent, will
nearly equal the available supp
copper for this year.

FIVE MEN WERE KILLED.
vcstfbule Wreck Kore Fatal Than
Tod in First Report.

Charleston, Jan. 22.-The wreck Of
the Coast Line, New York and Flori-
da vestibule train No. 8S, at Yemassee,
Monday night, proved to be one Of
the most disastrous in the history Of
this section.
The large locomotive pulling the
vestibule train, running at 40 miles
an hour. dashed into an open switch
and into the engine Of a freight train
standing on the side track. The
freight train was not over &c feet
from the entrance to the switch, and
before the crew of either train had
time to jump the engines were togeth-
er The observation car of the vesti-
bule train was telescoped and caught
fire, and almost before the passengers
realized what had happened the three
forward coaches were burning.
There was only one passenger in
the observation car and the negro
porter. The passenger was killed and
burned to a crisp; the porter saved
himself by breaking a window and
jumping from the burning car. The
two engines, the observation car, two
Pullman and several freight cars
were burned to the ground.
Five men were killed-four being
burned to a crisp under the heavy
cars.
The wreck was caused by an open
switch, due to the negligence Of
some member Of the freight crew. AS
in all wrecks the statements Of the
crew are conflicting, but all admit the
switch was left open.
The complete list fthe dead and
wounded are:

DOES NOT RECOMMEND PARDON
Judge Gary Returns to Governor An
sci Papers in the Adams Case Peti-
ton for Pardon.

Columbia, Jan. 22.-Judge Gary
has returned to the governor the pa
pers in the petition for the pardon of
r. @. Adams without his recommen-
dation. The judge reviews very brief
ly the history Of the case, which was
tried before him in Colleton in 1903.
Adams was convicted and Judge Gary
refused the motion then made for a
new trial He then imposed the death
sentece. The case since that time,
says Judge Gary, is familiar history.
He concludes: tT knew Of no reason
at that time why he should not pay
thee penalty of his act, and for that
reason imposed the sentence Of the
law upon him. Further than this I
have nothing to say.
Solicitor Davis, who prosecuted the
case, has already fled with the Gov
ernor his views strongly protesting
against any interference with the
death sentence for Adams. The case
will come before the pardon board at
the next session, Adams having been
respited by Governor Hayward in or
der for his appeal to be heard.
