Starting with a food which at
first threatened a reduction OF
the output fully so per cent and
which really reached a IS per
cent reduction, the ore market
opened strong with predictions
of a runaway market. The very
gravity of the situation caused
all the buyers to be apprehensive
and take such measures as would
be best to hold down the market.
Two of the largest buyers gave
out the information that owing
to recent heavy purchases of ore
they would stay out of the mar
ket. This allowed the other
buyers leeway, and they then
lowered their starting price to
SIS. But the law of supply and
demand could not be abrogated
and by Thursday afternoon $751;
so was paid for ore.
This rise in the market unoer
the apparently well planned cam
paign caused those buyers who
had stayed out to begin to get
uneasy, and one OF these went
back into the market at $3.50
and had there been any tonnage
of ore to secure at all would nm
doubtedly have raised the market
to 500. The net result OF the
whole maneuver was to hold the
market down to last weeks prices,
with perhaps a shade higher av-
erage for the entire field broug mt
about by the weekend sales be.
ing practically all at $5S and
$3.50. It was a most strained
market and the buyers were able
to hold themselves together with
greater order than they have
been able to do so far this year.
