Boston Stocks

BOSTON. Dec &c. F. Hutton Co.'S
wire says: Copper shares are only moderately
active. but the tone appears to be somewhat
improved. The copper producers statement,
published yesterday. has created better senti-
ment and has brought about a moderate amount
Of new buying. About the only active feature
has been United States smelling common, which
has recovered point selling at 32h. Other
departments of the market still remain dull
and neglected.
Brokers generally are giving no encourage
ment to their clients. Sold out TO the bankers
instead Of TO Raymond would exactly suit the
situation in Boston. One house that usually
carries line of 5000 Amalgamated had at
the close yesterday only 600 shares. There has
been time in recent years when the street
was as bare of stocks as now.
