BIG COPPER SALE DENIED.
European Pool Story Discredited-
Price 4gain Reduced.

The report that pool In which the largest cop
per consumers OF Europe said to be repre-
sented had purchased 1000 tons OF copper was
denied yesterday here and in London member OF
Phelps Dodge & Co. one of the largest selling
agencies OF the metal, said the rumor probably
arose from the large amount of copper sold abroad
in the last few weeks, which amounted 10 about
the tonnage mentioned in the report
lie said the value Of this copper was about Sl0.-
600 900 that the rehners IN this country would
have all they could do 10 FIJI the foreign orders
already received. He added that most Of the cop
per sent abroad had been sold direct TO consumers
and that none OF it had been purchased By any pool
syndicate.
There was another reduction of 4 cent in all
grades Of copper on the Metal Exchange yesterday
making lake 1914 cents to 13A cents. electrolytic
1914 cents 1917 cents. and castings 13 cents TO
1914 cents. No copper is being sold at these prices
however, the metal agencies still maintaining the
I5-cent rate established recently. Domestic con-
suners have not come into the market TO any ex-
tent yet and il Is not expected in copper circles
that they viii do until money conditions become
normal.
II was said in we'll informed quarters yesterday
that the Amalgamated Copper Company would pro-
duce only about 900 pounds Of copper in tho
current month This Will be the smallest output IN
a single month since the organization of the COM
pany II Is not expected that either the Amalga-
mated or any Of the other copper concerns that
have curtailed their output will make any effort
to increase their production for time to come
notwithstanding the heavy demand from abroad in
the last few weeks.
There was sharp rise in the price Of copper in
London yesterday. spot copper advancing 50 on
sales Of only 200 tons.

The British and Canadian authorities have been

The Cunningham Block RemOU-
dtof Bennett Grocery Go. into
It's NeO Quarters.
Mr.. w. j. Cunningham. who
superintended the work himself,
completed Monday the remodel
ing of the Cunningham buildin 9
at the corner of Main and Dunlap
streets, and it Is now one of the
best arranged and most credita-
Bile houses in town. The office
and dining room of the shotel
portion are now located on the
second floor, which, as is we'll
known, is being used by Mrs
Fannie Jones as a boarding house.
AS previously published, two
large store rooms have been fit
ted up on the first fl Dor Tor the
Bennett Grocery company, and
Mr. w p. Bennett, the president,
and his corps OF obliging clerk 8
are now moving the stock of
goods from the Ganson building
into the new quarters. The two
store rooms open into each other,
both at the front and toward the
rear, and the office is in the front
of the building. Everything is
conveniently arranged and the
Bennett company now has plen-
ty of space and light. Upon the
completion of the removal and
arrangement of the stock of
goods the company will have
one of the most attractive estab-
lishments in town.
