TONS OF WHEAT UNM0VED
Twelve Million Bushels Remain In
Northwest for Lack OF Carriers.

Portland Ore, Jan. 1T lgures
compiled by grain exporters show that
approximately 100000 bushels o.
1915 wheat remains in the Pacific
Northwest unmarketed, due TO the
practical impossibility OF getting
steamers or sailing vessels to carry II
TO foreign markets. About forty yes
sells would be required to move the
wheat still on hand. Only sufficient
tonnage is under charter TO move two
million bushels.
As a measure OF partial relief, large
amounts Of wheat are being sent by
rail TO New York.

THIRTY.CENT COPPER
WORLDS NEW RECORD
Single Bid, However, IS Not an
Index Of General Market.

Prices reported in the copper trade
yesterday were al times SO much at
variance as 20 cause almost complete
generalization in the market. The
cause has been the increasing demand
for the metal from both domestic and
foreign consumers. The French gov
ernment alone, II was stated, is in the
market for 10000 tons, while Russia
wants all the copper she can get.
A reported bid of go cents a pound
was brought TO the attention OF an
official Of one Of the largest selling
agencies, bnt he said that if such
high figure was quoted lt was not AN
index OF the general market This au-
thOrity declared that % cents was the
prevailing price for deliveries at early
dates, although he admitted that IN
some instances higher bids had been
accepted. The highest price ever be
fore generally quoted for copper was
IN 1906, when II went TO 26 cents a
pound.
With such an enormous current de-
msnd in the market, dealers are not
willing 70 contract for the metal for
long deliveries. For this reason It IS
admitted that prices have been practi-
cally taken from the hands OF the sell
ers and are now controlled by the
buyers, with some competitive bidding
for bookings
Exports Of copper for the week
ended yesterday were 4,540 tons, and
for the month TO date 1881 tons. For
the month of December the total was
42.426 tons, an increase Of 5,64O over
earlier figures.
The Utah Copper Company, from its
Offices here, confirmed yesterdays dis
patch from Salt Lake City that the
company had advanced the wages OF It's
men 10 TO % cents day, the advance
having gone into effect January l. The
Increase affects about $500 men and
will involve an additional expenditure
of about 100000 a year
