Metal Quotations
in Eastern Markets

Silver, per ounce NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. 1.27
Lead. per hundred ..........,.. 9.25
Copper, per hundred .........-. 1915
Zinc. per hundred 4. 49,. .... S.65
silver is steady at an increased price.
The price in London Is also steady. 1t
is thought that the price would ad-
vance materially We're 1t not for the
coin supplies coming over from the
continent. China continues to be a
buyer. with direct shipments from San
Francisco. On the whole. the condition
of silver is extremely healthy.
Lead is still quiet. Consumers seem
to be well provided for their present
current requirements and are in no
hurry to book future orders. Low
prices in London are having their effect
here and the prospect of Mexican lead
coming into this market serves as a re-
straining influence on the price.
| The firm upward tendency recently
evidenced in copper has been continued
during the last week. Demand in gem
eral continues good and Is probably in
excess of current production. Most of
the business is. of course. for domestic
delivery. 1t is believed that current
European stocks are at an absolute
minimum. AS the future of the copper
market depends almost entirely on ex-
port business, should this pick up a
further increase in price is extremely
probable. The potential foreign de-
mand is plainly evidenced and only
awaits the provision of credit facilities
Zinc is steady. A large amount OF
new business is being done in this
metal by small western operators. the
larger producers apparently not beins
attracted to any great extent by tn,
present prices.
