MARKET CHART SAYS
SLUMP NOT ENDED

ficient Swing to Hold Its

Several weeks ago in these columns
| there was a discussion OF the probable
market trend from the Indications OF the

pendulum through several years past y

OF 1902, then back TO the market depths
OF 1905, from which came the boom prices
OF 1906, then the panic quotations OF 1907.
and the recovery TO the attitudes OF 1905.
After the latter mark was made the pea

and an imperishable fame for the genius

The above statistics are computed from
the official reports OF the respective com
panies, except in the cases OF Calumet "
Hecla, United Verde. and CRANKY. which
are estimated. They are all for the cal
endar year except Imperial and Nevada
Consolidated, which are for their hsca
years ending September so. The con-
stituent companies Of the Amalgamated
are reported separately, their output ag-
gregating 2i6.TSi.99I pounds, but the
Washoe Is not included, Its figures being
unavailable. In all cases the proceeds
of gold and silver are deducted from the
total expense before determining the cost
of copper except for the United States
Smelling company, for which the cost is
prorated among the metals produced.
The production thus reported agsre
gates 995, ,029,12l pounds out OF the total
OF 1,2S5, 500, $50 pounds produced in North
America in 1909, OF the unenumerated

from l0c TO lie, like that OF Boston Con-
solidated, and good deal including the
production OF many small mines, gong
chiefly to the custom smelling works was
undoubtedly OF a cost In excess Of II
cents.
Since the end OF 1909 there have been
some important changes in conditions.
Thus Nevada Consolidated and Utah have
increased their production: cheap copper
in both cases. Anaconda reports ma
terial economy By virtue of its consoli-
dation. On the other hand, the cost TO

Arizona has probably been increasing be-
cause of the impoverishment Of their
ores. The high cost OF the Ahmeek cop
per was, of course due TO that mine be-
ing still in the development stage.
We have many times remarked the
danger of attempting to deduce costs
from the returns for single year. Those
for 1909 are to be taken merely as in
dica,ive of general conditions Some of
the copper producing companies keep
their accounts in reliable ways. No one
will be likely to question those OF Calu-
met g. Hecla and Phelps, Dodge & Co.
The Amalgamated companies lean over
backward In determining their costs and
there need be no suspicion that they fall
to tell the whole story, Not so with some
of the others The last year having been
of relatively low price for the metal. and
following another year OF less than aver
age price, the chances are that items OF
operation have In many cases been
charged 10 capital account, rather than
vice versa. and that the costs reported for
1909 are too low rather than too high.
