time. Particularly within the past
three weeks has this advance been
most conspicuous and the rise has
been attributed to a number of diff
ferent causes. The subject is discussed
editorially by the Engineering and
Mining Journal as follows:
During the last fortnight lead, ordi-

metals, has experienced an advance in

going promptly to cents, and specu-

the performances in spelter. Recent
events have taught that anything is
possible in the metal markets during
this time of war. With regard to the
situation in lead and the conditions
that started the advance certain things
stand out as facts, but other things
are shrouded in mystery
The lead market has been strong
for considerable time, while the
