THE COPPER MARKET.

While the demand for small lots Of
copper continued steady throughout tho
early part Of last week the closing DAYS
witnessed return of duness. The

of consumers for the raw material. Now
that these have been cared for II is be-
lleved that manufacturers will await a

and the freight rate question decision.
Prices remained unchanged All busi-
