Metal markets are showing re-

Metal markets are showing re-
markable strength. The sharp
rise in lead quotations last week
came rather Unexpectedly, al
though pig lead had been advanc-
ing in Europe. The break in
the market came Tuesday, when
an increase of more than 20 cents
on the hundred pounds was made.
This much of an advance in pig
lead, which usually is staple and
varies but a few cents, put new
life in the local market. An in
crease of $3.50 per ton in one
week means much to the pro-
ducers throughout the district.
If metal remains firm at present
figures, it is certain that lead
ore prices will be still higher.
That there will be changes in
the blende market soon is inn
probable. At least it is not of
the general opinion that prices
will go higher. If it remains at
the present figure, it seems that
all will be satisfied. Mine Oper-
ators are receiving what they
believe to be a fair price for their
product and to all appearances
the smelter men are making a
good profit. With New York
spelter touching 81 and no spot
metal available for even that
price, operators believe $50 ore
is only fair to all concerned.

much of the authority of a ma

technical ability ample for the
