sales for domestic account were smaller
than they were in either of the preceding
two months, and exports showed con-
siderable falling off. Though the output
of smelterS and retnerieS was probably
less, the Forthcoming statement of the
Copper Producers association is expected
to show a further increase in the visible
supply in this country in March. Euro
pean consumption. however seems to be
Increasing. During March there was
decrease of 4,53l $50 pounds in the foreign
visible supply, which may offset the
American Increase
General business activity i'll tins coun-
try has received a considerable setback,
and this is beginning to be reflected i'll Il
slightly reduced demand for copper. On
the other hand the big electric compan-
les are doing a large business and report
that there is no falling off in the volume
of new orders. The antagoniStic attitude
of congress and the various state legis-
latures toward corporations, the posSibili-
ty that the general dissatisfaction with
the recently enacted tariff law may re-
suit in another REIMBURSEMENT of the tariff
this year and the reStlesSncsS of organ
lied labor are responsible for the busi
ness reaction. Something is likely to
happen soon which will partially restore
business and financial confidence, how
ever. This would increase the buying
demand for copper and soon absorb the
existing surplus supplies. While the
not especially encouraging, | am salts

that the statistical position of the metal

THE TERM "YANIGAN."
Authorship Of Much Used Word Claim
ed by Sam Irwin.

Maybe you have wondered where the
word "yanigan' originated, and you
may also have wondered who originat-
ed it. The man who did SO is in Atlanta
with the Philadelphia Athletics. He is
Sam Irwin. manager of the Pn1ladel-
phia Yanigans.
This word has been in existence
since 1885 1t was during the season
that Mr.. Irwin named the Reserves. as
they were then called, the Yanigans.
and II came about in this way. accord
ing TO Mr.. Irwin:
II had a pitcher with the team
named Mattimore. We We're barn
storming through the New England
states at the time. On coming into the
bench after each inning he would yell
at me; oh, you Yanigan.' The name
struck me as original. and | asked
him what II meant.
Hanged If I know he said. but Ii"
kept on using it. After the game |
thought II over and it struck me as Il
pretty good name for my bunch OF
Reserves. I named hem the Yanigans
the next day when they came out to
the ball park 1t stuck from that time
on, and all the other teams have used
II ever since.
"Other persons have claimed the dis
tinction of originating that word. but
that Is how it really started"
Mr.. Irwin is over 10 years oid, but
is hale and hearty and as lively as all
the youngsters over whom ne mas
charge and with whom he is extremely
popular.
