COMPANIES ASSURED SIX
 MCNThS HIGHER PRICES

'.he break in copper share prices
 which terminated several weeks ago undoubtedly discounted in full an ear iy return of peace. Thus something was discounted which has not occurr- ed and which seems unlikely to occur for six months or a year to come. The prodUcing companies are assured six months m0le Of phenomenal earnings because their production has been sold six months in advance at very hish prices. on contracts which are not sub jcct to cancellation What they will receive for such portion of their pro duction for tLe closing six months Of t-is year as they have not sold already is proolematical; but as yet there is TO substantial evidence upon which to base doubt that they will receive as high prices as those for which their first six months product has been sold.

The mining industry is making wonderful advancement in all it's branches" said City Attorney l.. R. Whitney.

HEAVY PURCHASES OF SILVER BY CHINESE
 KEEP QUOTATION UP
Orient, Unable to Produce Enough Metal to Supply Demand, IS busy Placing Orders in United States.

The London quotation on silver has risen from about 32A pence in the latter part of October to 36 1i-l6 pence. which compares with SIS pence in May last, the highest point in many years, comments the Nation al City Bank of New York. The Lon don market is based upon silver 925 fine, which would make 36 pence the equivalent of 77.S cents for silver 1000 fine.
 The situation is strong, owing to small output in Mexico and the low state of supplies both in China and India. The demand for India and high prices prevailing last May started considerable movement of silver from China, and now that the Chinese ex- port season is on, the. demand is strong there.
 The Indian currency reserves are much lower now than a year ago, while the currency issues are consid- erably higher, which points to a con tinuance of government purchases.
 Advices indicate that up to the mid de of October these purchases had amounted ,to s4O,O0O,OO to $5O,OOO,OCO.
 Currency notes are used in India for remittances and larger transactions. Payments 60 the natives for labor and the crops are in the silver rupees, and the government treasury must keep itself in position to cas8 the paper money.
 Important shipments of silver have been going forward from San Francis co both to India and China.
 Present prices for silver are very remunerative to producers, and the production of the United States will doubtless show a new record for 1917.
