The top base for zinc ores this
week closed at $64, or just fifty
cents below that of last week,
and shaded downward to as low
as S57 for some small lots and
second grades at the week end.
Opening strong and with every
outward condition pointing to a
stronger close, the ore producers
were caught mapping, for by
Friday afternoon, when most
settlements are closed, the market
had slowed down. This has not
diminished the optimism felt in
the local situation, as many OF
the ore producers anticipate no
further decline. The high
settlement for the week was $67.
While the base price for ores
was not so high as the previous
week all records were broken in
tonnage and value of the ore
shipped.
The wild,- runaway character
of the market of the previous week
was given a milder tone and its
further advance stopped by the
apparent agreement among the
buyers to no longer press the
market. On the other hand, ore
producers had anticipated another
advance of ST. per ton this week.
There were some heavy pur-
chases. but the car shortage has
not vet allowed the ore buyers to
get all. their purchases loaded
out. Shipments are large inspite
of the shortage of cars. The dis
ttrict has been fortunate so far IN
getting a supply of cara in view
of the fact that there is an actual
shortage of s, 900 cars at the last
report of the railroads.
There was a stiff advance IN
lead ores again, an advance that
was anticipated, too. Fhe base
price for lead ores reached sos to
500, and there were some settle
ments that almost reached $40.
