the high point of 1909 the market value
Of thirty-five copper properties has
suffered loss of $202, 1875, 900. And yet
there has been no sudden or drastic
reduction i'm the price of copper; the
statistical position of the metal has
suffered no reverses since the high
prices herewith recorded were made;
the earnings of copper mines are just
as large; there have been no divi-
dend reductions, and yet the fact
stands-that $2OO,O0O,OOO have been
wiped off the selling prices of these
shares. A realization of this situation
has resulted i'm a much more cheerful
view of the outlook than has been APP
