Of It's restriction within professional
limits and fell into dull rut in which
little significance is attached to the
sluggish fluctuations in prices. The

made in New York that the selling

ducers had marked down the selling
price OF copper. thus conforming to
last weeks successive reductions in
the London market and at the New
reason Amalgamated copper was n
leader in the early downward move

change in conditions and there was I
disposition TO postpone the date of

was true Of advices OH the commercial
situation, and complaints were heard
from some centers OF relapse into
somewhat critical centers in trade.
The approach of the Easter holt
