THE COPPER MARKET.
mig Decrease In Foreign supply
Sentiment Optimistic.

London copper cables yesterday were
of an encouraging nature, showing as
they did important decreases in both the
visible supply and amount of stocks on
hand, The British and French visible
supply, including copper ahoat to those
countries, decreased between August l6
and September / 2,479 tons, bringing it
dow 10 3i,06t tons. The significant
part Of these statistics is that they re-
cord the first drop in several months.
Stocks of copper In warehouses de-
creased $40 tons. likewise the first fall
ing off In this item for some time past.
The copper market Itself presented a
rather mixed appear rance. for while
some producers reported a fair inquiry
and some business at is cents, others
stated tEat they had not received a sin
gle demand for copper throughout the
day. There was still q little November
copper available NJ I'm cents "A pound.
Sentiment rs to the immediate future

knowledge that Europe must come into

THE STEEL MARKET.
France Reported to Have bought
10000 Tons of Blooms.

No material Change WAS reported IN
the steel market yesterday, The demand
for steel for conversion into ammuni-
ton continues the feature ard manu-
facturers state that the weakness OF
foreign exchange has not caused an
interruption OF the heavy demand for
bars. Hundreds of thousands of tons
are being sought by ammunition makers
and many mills have been forced to
withdraw from the market owing TO
their ovcrsold condition. \ continual
ton of the heavy demand for bars is
practically assured, as large ammu-
milton contracts are coming into this
country in a steady stream. Export
demand continues large. 1t is reported
that france has bought $4,000 tons
OF steel blooms here. The contract
calls for delivery up to July. 1915.
Iron prices continue firm. Valley
prices have been advanced 10 sl5 for
basic and SIC for Besseme-. Virginia
iron makers have advanced foundry
grades for delivery in the first quarter
OF next year so cents to 81.
The Iron Age says:
The main features of the steel sit
uation are the large amount OF new
war business offered. particularly in
bars and wire, and the fact that the
possible open hearth steel output OF the
remaining months OF this year IL practi-
cally all under contract. Thus the
very moderate pace at which new do
nestle business is coming in brings
no misgiv!ngs.
Some parts of the industry. par
t!cularly those merchant furnaces at
which wages were reduced IS pig iron
prices went below cost last year. are
now facing higher labor cost. \ few
wage advances have been announced.
There Is yet no actual scarcity OF labor.
but the bidding of new munition plants
for skilled labor drawn from other oper-
ations Is being felt in the iron trade.
Not only are iron and steel works
missing the thousands of men who have
come from Europe at every previous
turn of the tide here. hut they have
lost some thousands to Europe this
year.
There are signs that With each
month the war is aking "A asger part
OF the countrN's steel production. one
~ these Is the increasing reticence Of
steel makers as to war contracts. 1t
is understood. however. that 10000 tons
Of round bars was booked AT Chicago
in the past week, also hat 10000 tons
OF rounds went to Pittsburg and $4,000
tons to n Mahoning Valley plant.
There seems no end TO the barbed
wire demand from Europe. Inquiries
cover about 100 900 tons, including one
for $4,000 tons OF painted barbed wire
which has come up at Cleveland. For
eign buyers are even trying 20 get hold
of warehouse stocks. The high prices

the bullet. The breast was opened. the
