| SAYS COPPER is IMPROVING
B. B. Thayer Attributes Lull in
Business to Investigations.

BENJAMIN B. Thayer. president OF the
Anaconda Copper Mining Company. spoke
optimistically Of the copper situation De-
fore sailing for Europe yesterday morning
on the steamer Caronia. He said there had
been a decided improvement in the copper
market during the last month and that
very heavy sales had been made. The most
satisfactory feature of the situation, MT.
Thayer said, was that purchases OF the
metal by consumers were made on rising
market.
Speaking Of the future outlook in the cop
per market, he said he thought 1t would De

The fundamental conditions throughout
the country are good and satisfactory har-
vests are expected in the West, but at pres

ness / think this is due solely TO threat

the general inactive state Of business in
the last three years has been due entirely
TO lack of confidence on the part Of the
people. AS soon as this confidence IS re-
stored general business conditons-and cop
per along with the rest-should show de-

Mr.. Thayer added, however, that he did
not think the threatened Investigations on
the part Of the government were conducive
TO restoration of confidence.
