BRIEF NOTES Of FINANCE.

In q review of the copper market situa-
ton the National Conduit and Cable Com
pany saws that the latest copper sta
tistics are construed as favorable TO mar
ket frmness. and curtailment of output
through the strike OF employees at The
Lake mines will operate to keep unsod
stocks Of the metal at fairly low level
until production is restored To a normal
basis. Demand however. will require TO
be maintained in heavy volume 10 pre-

keeping supplies ample for legitimate re-
quircmcntS. \ slackening UP in business

American Copper at the rate Of about
40 ooo 90 pounds monthly there Will be
strong arguments for confidence i'm cap
per at reasonable prices. Production and
consumption Of copper have both grown
to mammoth proportions, and prudence
and due regard for sound conditions will
require that the law Of supply and de-
msn6 be given first place among the con-
trolling factors in the situation. Com
pairing visible supplies with demand as
these exist to-day according TO available
data the position Of copper Is seen to be
one which was naturally bound to event
uate i'm frmer market conditions than
prevailed month ago.
The Coal Trade.
The state Of the coal trade is reviewed
in THE Coal Trade Journal" OF August
%. After touching on the labor situation
and pointing out that although the output
at this time is really larger than ever be
fore. the trade is facing an extraordinary
demand. the following paragraph ap-
pears:
Anthracite will show about million
tons decrease in shipments compared with
the record breaking figures Of August,
1912, but will be above ;he TONNAGE OF Au-
gust. 1911 That tells the state of trade In
n nutshell. II is not so active as IT was
in the unusual summer OF last year. but
1t Is far above all other summer seasons.
There are indications that the difference

Of tax or no tax is in fair way TO ne
