NEW YORK, July 14.-Recent re-
ports from the largest consumers in
dictate that the domestic consumption
Fof refined copper during the first half
Of the year has been about 10000
600 pounds, or an average of between
20. o00, 900 and 25.000.00 pounds per
month. During the first quarter,
however, smelling was extremely light,
probably less than $4,000 600 pounds
monthly average. During the second
quarter there was some Improvement
aud during the month Of June it is
estimated that consumption was be
tween 25,000,00O and 30,00O,UvV
pOuadS.
Although the production of copper
was reduced considerably in the
Butte district in the month of June.
according to reports. it is understood
there was quite an increase in Utah,
Arizona, and other camps, so that
the total production was little less
than during the preceding mUntir,
probably between I5.000.O00 and So
G00, Zoo pounds. The total output for
the first half of the year is estimated
al about 2S5. 0OO.O0 pounds. or an av-
erage of about $4,000 geo pounds per
mCntE.
imports during the first five months
Of the year, according to government
returns, were about 100000 pounds,
hut over 5000 tons arrived in June,
making the total between $1,000, 600
and 92,00O,0O0 pounds. The May re-
turns however, were as well as some
of the previous months, not complete.
Upon the reports from custom house,
it is probable that imports have been
about 99,OO0,0O0 pounds during tle
six months. The total supply from
domestic and foreign sources thus
fnr has been about 4S0,000,00O
pounds, adding stocks of 135,00O,000
pounds carried on the first of tine
year, the available supplies were 6l9,-
100000 pounds.

Pacific ports during June. about 367,-
600 600 pounds; added to domestic
consumption of 14G0O0,000 pounds
gives a total apparent consumption
of 507 900 900 pounds. Deducting the
apparent consumption from the totaT
supply available stock in the United
States today are about 10000, 900
pounds.
Probably the most important fea-
ture of the situation is the heavy &C
cumuIatiOn Of copper in Europe. as a
large proportion of the unprecedented
exports from the United States to
Europe have been induced by the ne
cessity of financing the steadily grow
ing surplus. Stocks OF standard cop.
per in Europe are the heaviest ever
known, and as at least I5 per cent
of these stocks are electTOlytic, de
pressing effect has resulted upon
prices in the open market. Stocks o.
copper in Europe and America today
are fully 100000 600 pounds. and prcb
ably 25O,O00, 900 OF this surplus mus
be sold or resoId before it enters in
to consumption. Buying by domesti'
consumers has continued to be con
fined to small lots foe nearby re
.qufrements and sales in Europe ar
