Boston, March 26-Veteran court officers: and reporters have discover ed a new class known as court fans" and these devotees of sensa- tional testimony are running neck ard neck in enthusiasm with the energetic baseball fan, and the qaiet, but eager, movie" fan. Of late they have been having their full share of "snappy" cases, talk ing in each performance of the fa- nous "Toodles" Ryan breach of promise suit, the Herrick-Waltt case, where young wife's love got mrxed up with the wrong man, the Fairfield-F Fitzpatrick tangle. Now they have all assembled to hear th' Cabot will trial.
 The "court fans" have little on the movie" fans and the baseball fans on account of no admission being charged at the court room. However, it appears they will soon have gloomy time as the list of spectacular trials will be exhausted when the Cabot case Is finished un.ess sympathetic parties start something.

excessive, the large producers will prob easy 1t is to do that, and there is no longer the tendency that there used to be to try to hog the market. On the contrary, there is better recognition of the wisdom of operating for the common welfare and therefore there is now spirit of friendliness among com petitors.
 So long as the war lasts there istgo- ing to be a very large quantity of cop per used for ammunition, but of course such a consumption is not going to maintain the copper industry of the world. The great uncertain factor at the moment is the consumption for peaceful purposes, which is still below normal, especially in the United States. When is it going to revive? This coun- try is growing rich in money out of the sale of it's products and it's labor at high prices, and sooner or later that money must be invested in increased means for transportation, in buildings
 in Improvements, ,etc all of which will require copper. The remarkable re- vival in the iron and steel industry which can hardly be due wholly to mili- tary requirements, is conceived to fore- shadow this. Yet we should not be dis appointed if a great expansion in do- mestic peaceful industry does not hap pen right away. Such expansion must be based upon the financing of bonds and securities. and although we have the means to do that the uncertainty of the times breed caution Next there are the questions of men and of plant, both of which are now occupied to a large extent with military business. The two things-war and peace-do not economically dovetail we'll together. Many months ago the view was ex- pressed in the Journal that it would be better for the prospects for increase in domestic business to have copper
 hold around 15 cents than to have 1t raised to 20 cents by military buying. We have seen strikingly how the ex- | cessive rise in spelter-far more ex- | travagant than the rise in copper
 paralyzed ordinary commercial con
 sumption. Thus a few producers prof. ited hugely. but to large extent at the
 expense of peaceful Americans not warning Europeans.
 The only possible deduction from these forecasts is that We shall proba-
 bly, see copper at a lower level than it is now before the end of this year
 although there will no doubt be rallies
 on sporadic buying movements. Yet there is nothing to be pessimistic about ISeventeen cents, or 16 cents, or even

THE PROSPECT
 FOR COPPER

The hopes for rally in copper that were recently entertained failed to be realized and the price has declind fur hter. 1t appears that the buying of ammunition in June, and earlier, was much in excess of the immediate re- quirement, and although further con- buyers are more cautious, slower to act than they were. In the meanwhile pro- duction has increased to about the limit of present refinery capacity. Domestic consumption has failed to increase ma terially. Although the producers have already contracted to deliver good deal of the copper that they expect to produce for long while ahead, even ir 1916, there remains a large supply o1 current production to be sold, and the excess of supply over demand is having the natural effect.
 Yet, the position of copper is funda- mentally sound. The stocks in the hands of refiners are not increasing to any disconcerting extent. There arc not believed to be any speculative ac- counts in the metal that have to bt liquidated. A big operation of thai sort that was conducted on the Sharr rise in copper, early in the spring, i: supposed to have been concluded before copper reached it's highest point. There has been no gossip of spectators buy, ing copper at the top and meeting witt the fate of some of the adventurers il spelter and lead. Nor has there beer any considerable volume of speculation in the shares of the copper stocks. Or the contrary, they have been conspicu ous by the neglect of them and it i! we'll known that the standard issues have hardly been selling for prices rep resenting their liquidating value on al average of 141-2 to 15 cents for cop per. Anaconda for example, has at nt time in 1915 sold so high as it did il 1914. before the war. There have there fore been no great bubbles blown il copper that must inevitably explode.
 Trying to look into the future certain factors seem reasonably clear. Tn production of Shuquicamata. Katang; and Inspiration is going to increase. I it appears, however, that the weigh of their production added to what i being piled on from other quarters 1

C., when the Persians had TOO vessels of the class considered formidable in that day and the Greeks 3S0. These vessels were mostly tri- remes, boats with three benches for the rowers, and a mast that could be rais- ed or lowered by means of stays. This mast carried square sails
 There was some chivalry in a naval fight in the good old days of Blake and Van Tromp, when sneaking submarines and barbarous torpedoes were unknown and naval commanders "courted war like a mistress"
 When the Spanish admiral Oguendo declined to come out of the shallow waters of Goodwin Sands to fight be- cause he had no powder Van Tromr said: "T have powder enough for both will give him half of mine"
 "It Is not only powder I need, but masts for my ships" replied Oguendo To which Van Tromp replied: T have plenty of masts, a whole shipload of them and you can have them if you will only come out and meet me-"
 The result justified the caution of Oguendo. for when the two fleets did meet the Spaniards were so terribly beaten by the Dutch that of 67 ships only IS reached Dunkirk in safety.-l Army and Navy Journal

There is no certainty as to the total number of the allied fleet gathered at the Dardanelle5, but whatever the number it is a mistake to say that it Is the largest number of any naval fleet ever assembled The most formidable no doubt, in tonnage, weight of metal and other clements of offense but not the largest numerically.
 At La Hougue, May 19, 1892, tho French had 76 vessels and the English and Dutch allies 56-60. Blake had 46 vessels at Dungeness November 2s Sands. October 20. 1889, had no vessels 1852, against Van Tromp's 9S, and the Dutch under Van Tromp off Goodwin to 67 in the Spanish fleet. September l, 1892, occurred what Rawson, in his Twenty Famous Battles" calls "the most conspicuous gallant fight in all anuals of naval warfare" when 53 spanish vessels were fought single handed at Flores, in the Azores, by the i1hbhbh war INcNtuBt, COID- manded by Sir Richard Grenville, who scorned to follow the other five Brit ish line of battleships of Towards fleet when they ran from what they regard ed with reason as a hopeless fight.
 The Spanish had 12O ships in the Armada they launched against England July 29, 1886. and the English scratch fleet of 179 vessels, mostly small ones no match for the formidable Armada, which evidently expected to tow the British islands home with them. At Lepanto, October T. 1871, the Spaniards had BOO sail and the Venetians 316
 If We go still further back we find at Actium, B. G. 31, 50 ships under Mark Antony and 250 under Octavius Caesar. The young Octavius won the battle by his possession of more mo- bile vessels. The pirates at Illyria had devised a light and powerful craft, long and narrow. sharp at either end, with
