New York, August 1.-The sensational advance in Liverpool was attributed to the closing of that market on Saturday and Monday, leading to the evening-up of short interests there, and possibly specu- lative buying. Our market responded sharply, but the evidence of professional activity being apparent the advance was soon lost under liberal offerings which could not be absorbed. Gro. developments are without new features, excepting some private reports of insect ravages in the southwest. While the outlook continues good any permanent advance is be- lieved 10 be unlikely.

talum is reported.
stem in 1909. The prices quoted for the
metal were considerably higher than in
1908, and the production Of ore increased
from 67i short, tons. valued at $229 ,s55, to
1919 tons. valued at ssl4,S7o, This is
the largest quantity produced by any
country In one year. The figures show
60 per cent tungsten trioxide. The
United States last year produced nearly
third of the worlds total production
of tungsten ore. which was about $500
tons.
Much Nickel Refined.
Very little nickel was produced in the
United States, but a great deal was i'm
ported and as more nickel is refined
in this country than can be used here,
22.1a4 l02 pounds OF nickel as metal and
as metallic contents OF ores were brought
into the United States in 1909. The total
nickel amounted to l2,ols.7s7 pounds.
valued at s4,101 s7e. The importations of
cobalt amounted to 1882 pounds. val

Titanum Is being used with great sue
cess in making steel rails. The New
York Central line has given rails treated
with fcrrotitanium a thorough test in the
Grand Central terminal yards and now
requires that all rails made for it's lines
shall be treated with titanium alloy,
Rutie or titanium oxide, was pro-
duced in the United States last year only

Tantalum Going Out of Favor.
Molybdenum. uranium and tantalum
were little used In the United States
in 1909. and only small quantity Of
tantalum was produced a little was i'm
ported from Germany, but the use of
tungsten in incandescent lamps has
proved so satisfactory that the demand
for tantalum has probably not greatly
increased.
Although the United States uses 43 per
cent OF the worlds outpu. of tin, II is
not an important producer of that metal
Tin was produced in Alaska and South
Dakota in 1909. but not in large quan,i-
ties.
In 1909 there were imported into the
United States AZ. .662 tons Of tin. valued
at s2I.55S,546. The average price was
2S9l cents pound. Several thousand
tons OF tin are recovered from used tin
cans and other wastes.

There Is much talk of mining boom

Casual assertions that a boom is immi

Probably the boom will not materialize

A mining revival--or boom-need not

To be sure, the most sensational or our

Intense excitement bordering close on
hysteria under the influence OF which
unreasonable conditions were permitted
