MARKETS

Boston-The local market was in
better shape today than II has been for
a week. There was no pressure to sell
coppers and the new orders coming in
averaged FIVE times as many to buy as
to sell. The majority Of the buying
orders today were limited under the
market so they did not cause any ma
terial advance but they will furnish
strong support to prevent any further
reaction. The New York list held
strong all day with a slight rally and
there was no attempt at liquidation by

Boston-Market conditions today
were rather non-committal Prices
fluctuated within narrow limits and
closed with only nominal change.
Were II not for the fact that several
efforts were made during the day TO
depress prices without anything more
than temporary success it might be
thought that this was only pause As
IL is il looks like more than that. Lo-
cally, many shares which were unsala-
BILE last week were almost unpur-
chasable today. This may change. II
more liquidation becomes necessary,
but at the moment prices seem bot
toned. J. Sturgis.

WOLVERINE.


The trend of the meta. market is

crime dividend rate of $40 per annum

dends only at the expense OF its sur

creditable proportions. The surplus as
of June 30. 1910. amounted TO $751;

new construction were probably the
smallest for any year since the COM
pany became producer.
For the fiscal year recently reported
upon Wolverine showed net earnings
equal To a tribe less than $50 per
share on an average selling price for
its output of 1888 cents per pound,
which is but fractionally lower than
the prevailing quotation for this COM
modify, there having been offerings OF
Lake copper this week at l2%.
In the matter OF production and
costs Wolverines record continues
most gratifying, nor will its costs in
crease with the attaining Of new
depths a fact due To its enormous
