COPPER Exports Les.

For instance. exports OF copper
from this country declined from sl.05s.-
600 pounds In January to 47,622.O
pounds in April" continues Walkers
Then an increase of 100000 pounds
in May was followed by further in
creases OF 100000 pounds In June,
and 1000. 900 pounds In July. The lat
ter month WAS the first one this year to
show an increase over the correspond
ing month OF 1917. So far In 1918 exports
have averaged about $4,000 900 pounds.
less per month than in 1917 Although
pages could be written in explanation
OF these changes they mean almost
nothing TO anybody except the mem
bers of tho copper committee, who
have the whole matter OF supplies. re-
auirements and distribution In their
hands. There has been an immense
decrease in the amount of copper con-
sumed In general building operations,
in telegraph telephone and electric
light extensions and In street railway
construction. On the other hand hydro
electric power companies probably are
taking in more copper and the amount
going into shipbuildlng must have null
tiplied hundreds of times over In the
past two years"

Opinions differ as to the immediate fu-
ture of events in the local money mar
ket the view presented by the writer Of
the Mechanics and Metals National Bank
circular representing those who feel that
there will be no expansion Of credit IA
cilities for stock market borrowers.
Evidence continues to increase that
credit conservation will be more and
more a banking duty as the autumn sea-
son advances" says the bank. For the
present the money market Is entirely
concerned with the necessity OF provid-
ing for a full subscription to the war
loan. Banks are carefully scrutinizing
requests for credit. while the marketing
of issues of capital already authorized
but not yet distributed will cease from
October until the close of the loan
campaign. Rates in the money market
are at present on a general level with
the highest figures quoted since our en-
try into the war, but II is gratifying to
record the cooperation given the banks
by borrowers in their efforts to so govern
the situation that no stringency may oc-
cur. An exceedingly difficult duty has
been placed upon the bankers of the ma
ton. and the way in which borrowers
generally have cooperated in bringing
about a real conservation of credit is
only another manifestation OF tho native
adaptability and the deep and practical
patriotism of the American people"

Texas Company.

The key TO this performance may be
found in the north central Texas oil
fields and elsewhere. The OIL Trade
Journal points out that the company
has 200,0 900 acres of land under lease in
that section. Not only have there been
favorable oil developments there in the
past month but the company has also
discovered sulphur on its leasehold III
the Texas coastal plain. Late last month
II completed a flowing we'll on its 10000
acre lease In Stephens county. that State,
which has been producing 100 barrels
daily. This Is the fourth we'll that the
company has completed there. 1t may
be stated that bonuses OF $1,000 an acre
have been paid for leases in the terri
tory referred to. So much for material
Developments. In addition there Is talk
that the company may again increase
its capitalization before the current year
Is out. and that rights to subscribe may
be worth SIS to $50. AS an index to
the company's growth It should be noted
that the original capital was 100000.
It Is now 36s,375.000. successive in
creases having been made in July. 1918 {;

slight Copper shortage.

A slight shortage OF copper exists. ac-
cording to trade authorities. and Walk
er's Weekly Copper Letter says that
while It is practically impossible to OBJ
tain definite Information az to the rela-
ton OF supply 10 demand there is every
indication that a slight. but not uncom-
Portable. shortage of metal exists. The
whole character of the business has
changed to such a. remarkable extent"
this writer says. that the available sta
tistics convey little IL any meaning Re-
fore the war 1t was possible to assume
with almost positive assuran nee of &C.
curacy that domestic consumption in
this, that or the other line was absorb
ing a given number OF million pounds

New street, Exchange place and Wall
street, which Is the centre of the market
for puts and calls. was excitedly dis
cussing yesterday the large profits that
are now shown on calls sold last week on
some of the oil stocks. This is particu-
iarly true OF those sold on Texas Com
pany. which began to make money
around IT'S. and which mature Saturday
of tins week. At one time yesterday
these calls on Texas showed profits of
about thirteen points. These stories
naturally stimulated the inquiry for calls
and the crowd of dealers in privileges
showed an increase in size. Inasmuch as
many brokers are reluctant TO purchase
