OUTLOOK FOR SILVER
MAY ADVANCE TO 81
ALL INDICATIONS POINT TO AN
ERA OF GREAT PROS
PERlTY.

Jones e. Baker, Chicago Copper
has been holding the center of the
stage SO long, and the great earnings
md future possibilities of the copper
mines have been so thoroughly ex-
plotted that the possibilities for the
great silver mines have been overlook
ed. Unless all signs fail. however sill
yer and silver producing mines will be
very much in the limelight from this
time on.
Following the various declarations
of war in Europe, the price Of silver
metal declined to the lowest point in
history and the latter part of 1914 and
all of 1915 were hard months. for sill
yer producing properties. Silver has
been at higher levels all of this year,
and is now selling at around 70 cents
with authorities in the market freely
that the price of the metal
will advance to 80 cents or 81. Should
silver reach the latter figure, such
boom In silver stocks will undoubted-

erations are no longer the determining
factor as to whether a consumer will
buy copper.
Courage Of Sentiment.
Meters who are protected over the
first half are clamoring for coverage
over the second half. There has been
a remarkable change of sentiment
among copper consumers. The opin-
ion is now more general that the flu
ture Of copper does not depend wholly
on the continuance Of the war. With
Europe buying copper a year ahead on
orders that can not be cancelled and
willing to pay the prevailing high
prices, domestic consumers have found
that the fears of a reaction, if the war
should end, are baseless
Producers Conservative.
Producers are today limiting even
transactions for the second half of
next year, to regular customers. Buy =
ers who have made practice of shop
ping around, are finding that their
penny saved IS q penny earned policy
is of no earthly advantage to them
when the market turns from a buyers
to a producers market, 1t has come
down to apportioning production. Out
put can not be increased sufficiently
to take care of the greatly enlarged
world demand. Facilities may be Gre
ated, but labor can not and there Is
the rub. Plants can not be run for
ever without repairs and when parts
for repairs can not be obtained plants
are closed. Thus Notwithstanding the
desires of producers to bring the out
put up to 225.OOO,OOO pounds month
there are factors that prevent them
from so doing.
