THE METAL MARKET.
Decline in Domestic Consumption is
Cause for Decrease in Prices.

Geo. L. Walker, writing in the
Boston Commercial last week, says
Copper continues dull and the
} tone of the market is weak Lake
is nominally IA to IA IA cents, anC
electrolytic is 10 ga to Is 7-S cents Z
pound. The volume of domestic buy
ing is considerably restricted, anG
foreign consumers appear to be
refraining as far as possible from
making new purchases. The export
movement, however, continues large.
According to custom house returns
something more than 64,9OO,OO
pounds left the country the first "a
days of this month, Indicating total
exports of between 100000 and 49,,
100000 pounds in June.
Under normal conditions domestic
consumption should approximately
equal exports. But for our present
business depression consumption and
exports apparently would be exceed
ing production and imports by 10000
600 to 100000 pounds monthly 1t
is perfectly plain, therefore, that the
future course of metal prices depends
upon whether general business con-
ditions in the United States grow
better or worse.
A change in the attitude of the
government may occur any day
which will cause a general restora-
ton of investment confidence, such
as will lead to a resumption of eX-
pansion in all industrial lines. 1t
would make available the capital that
is so badly needed by the railroads for
the purchase of new equipment and
the electrification of terminals and
suburban lines.
1t should constantly be kept in mind
that the surplus stocks of ready-to-use
copper are exceedingly small. Should
anything occur to stimulate materi-
ally the consumptive demand it would
undoubtedly be followed quickly by
an advance of at least two or three
cents in the market price of the
metal. In this one factor exists the
dangerous element of chance that
threatens those large consumers
who are pursuing the policy of hand
to-mouth buying.
At IS ga to IA cents copper is rela-
lively as cheap as it was a few years
ago at II IL to II cents. Substan-
TALLY all of the commodities with
which it comes into competition are
selling considerably higher now than
formerly, and advancing wages and
fuel prices are adding constantly to
the utility value of copper. For illus
tration, with cheap labor you per-
haps can cover roof with galvanized
iron, and replace it the once or
twice that will be necessary during
the life of the building, at less ex-
pense than you could cover it with |
copper, which would be permanent.
With high priced labor, however,
copper can be used with much more |
economy, the cost of the material be-
coming a greatly reduced factor in |
he total expense account.
While it is possible that the price

Shattuck Arizona directors have de-
clared regular quarterly dividend
of so cents share, the third of this
amount to be paid this year. 1t
will make a total of Sc a share, or
100000, so far disbursed by this
company. Shattuck must now be
earning at the rate of $3.50 per
share, and it is probable that the
quarterly disbursements will be in
creased in the near future, as ar
engagements have already been made
to increase considerably the mine
output. Shatuck's ore is very high
grade and the cost of it's copper prob
ably is under, rather than over,
eight cents a pound.

increasing production and the de-
