Silver Consumers Are BedriSh On
the MetaI--.Buyine Into the Mines
and Expecting Increase In Price

manufacturers of New England make
almost - per cent of the products
in these lines for account of North
America The consumption of re-
fined silver by these New England
factories is more than the double of
the record of ten years ago. Work
ers in the silver ware lines believe
that silver is going TO move up slowly
and steadily TO 60 cents an ounce.
The amount of sound silver mining
stocks held by men engaged in the
manufacture of silver ware is well
above $25 900. 900. based upon stock
market quotations. There are big
blocks of Cobalt stocks going into
the hands of big manufacturers in
my part Connecticut, unde clever
buying policies shaped forth by
some of our friends who have made
millions of dollars in sound copper
mines.
A great many men who do not
know anything about the rapid
growth of the silver working trades
believe that the policy of develop
ment is going ahead too fast at
Cobalt. As a matter of fact when
silver moves up few cents an ounce
higher. the most progressive mine
developers at Cobalt will wish they
had gone much further ahead In put
ting in new machinery and handling
more men than are at work under
present plans. Btu, OF course. in
the mining business. as in other lines
of business. the managers of works
are often Obliged TO work wholly in
accordance with the views of the
most conservative interests among
the shareholders. This is the rea-
son why a trade boom always did and
alwaps will find DIR railroads and
factories unprepared to take care OF
offering business in the right way TO
give consumers what they want and

President Holbrook of the Gorham
Mfg. Co., of Providence r. l., the

company when asked by a reporter
for the Boston Financial News as
to the condition of that industry,
said.
Trade is improving The pros
pect for sales during later months.
when business is always better than
in the first half of the year is very
good. Last years consumption of
refined silver by makers of solid and
silver plated wares within our own
country was about %, 900, 900 ounces
Few persons outside of the silver
working trade know what an
enormous quantity of silver is con-
sumed in fine and mechanical arts.
The minis of our own and of several
of the most populous countries of
Europe did not bup as much silver
last year as was taken by the silver
ware makers of the United States.
The low prices of silver have enabled
domestic manufacturers to greatly
extend the industry since the days
when refined silver was at s1.00 an
ounces The manufacture of solid
silver wares has increased so per
cent within a decade. Export trade
is increasing"

New York-The position of copper
metal has been materially strength
end by the recent heavy sales Tor
both foreign and domestic accounts
The transactions among the pro-
ducers of the red metal since May |
are estimated at between 120, 00O,-
900 and 125 1000. 900 pounds, of
which nearly So.000.000 pounds
were disposed of by the United Metal
Selling company. AMI the rest by
other producers Most of this cop
per has been sold for delivery in May
June and early in July. and pro-
dncers hesitate TO commit themselves
by making contracts for copper at
the current prices deliverable after
June 10
The general belief is that the mar
ket will continue TO improve from
now on and an advance in prices
would not he at all surprising. While
consumption at home is on the in
crease, still there is some hesitaney
on the part of consumers TO buy very
far ahead this being due 10 the belief
on their part thar the large stocks of
copper reported by the Copper Pro
aucers Association will operate
against any material advance in the
price of the metal It is said IN
usually well informed circles that
We're 1t not for these large stocks of
copper on hand the price of the metal
would he still at a much higher level
han il is today
Another factor which Is delaying
che return of the consumption of cop
Der TO the normal basis is the long
drawn out tariff discussion. II is not
so much what will be done with the
tariff that merchants are concerned
with as il is with the settlement OF
the entire question In many manu-
featuring lines business is being held
back until the matter is settled.
The brass manufacturers report a
large business. but are still running
somewhat below the normal capacity
Wire drawers are also more active
than for some time past.
There is a feeling in the trade that
the recent heavy sales of the metal
will be reflected in a decided improv-
ment in the statistical position of the
metal next month Deliveries during
May 10 domestic consumers will be
as large as they were in April and
March, if not larger. while the eX-
ports promise to equal those of the
preceding months shipments of cop
per SO far this month being in excess
of 1900, 900 pounds.
Purchase OF copper by domestic
consumers have been somewhat
smaller during the past week, but at
the same time inquiries are quite
numerous AMI producers quote the
market firm. In some instances they
are sold up for June and offers for
Lake copper at 13 "a AMI 1874 have
been refused for July deliveries. The
market today is quoted at IL q for
Lake and 1914 for electrolytic.

Boston Producers of Lake copper
and representatives of the largest
selling agents say that the copper
metal market is today in a stronger
position than for several months
past. There are no orders being
taken al present prices for deliveries
beyond July Lake copper is report
ed very strong for July delivery at
1875 10 131a cents and electrolytic
At l3A cents.
Producers say that the most en-
eouraging feature of the situation is
that consumers are absolutely bare
of stocks and with any marked i'm
provement in the demand prices
would he advanced. Consumers have
been and are still purchasing in a
hand 10 mouth fashion and il is tigur-
ed that if brass and wire manufactu--
rers were carrying even a normal
supply of manufactured goods AMI
raw material the surplus stocks of
copper now in the hands of the pro-
ducers would rapidly disappear.
II is pointed out that although
there have been several active per
iods in the past in the metal market.
prices later receeded after the con-
sumers had filled their immediate
wants Yet it is good opinion that
the present business situation is on a
more substantial basis than since
1906. This is the opinion of the lead
ing bankers and in substantiation of
this ii is only necessary To look at
the substantial incresase in bank
exchanges When copper and brass
manufacturers find that the demand
for their products is of a permanent
sort there is little doubt that the re-
quests for copper will make for some
what higher prices.
