TAME MARKET; TRADING IN
 SMALL LOTS
There Are Numbers of Good Purchases, Many Stocks Will Undoubtedly Go lip Be- fore Winter Months Come.
(By Frank J. Crab

Today's copper market was a very tame affair from the very opening to the close. Trading was limited and sales reported were for small lots only. It looks as though we were getting ready for summer market, but on the other hand the outlook Is almost too good for prices to stay around these figures. This is the case more especially to dividend stocks as well as the low priced stocks that should be in the dividend class before the close of the year. North Butte and Butte Coalition should be a good purchase. while Greene Cananea and Superior & Pittsburg should be bought up at these figures. Greene Cananea will without doabt see better prices and be on divi- dend basis within one years time after they are in good working order.
 Superior & Pittsburg will not very likely issue any more stock, and from the mere fact that they are talk ing up the matter of listing the stock on the Boston Stock Exchange places more confidence than ever. ShattuCk Gnd Denn are holding their own, es- pecially Saattuck is very strong. The entire market was a tr.ne of at the close. especially the curhs.
