Situation in Copper

Despite the declining price tendency
of copper, it was said in the trade yes
terday that this year will be q record
one from the standpoint of consump-
ton. This was predicted earlier in the
year by John D. Ryan, and more recent
developments have proved the correct
ness of his forecast. The drop in
prices, however, has had the effect OF
bringing about falling off in produc-
ton. The figures for September show
that fourteen leading copper companies
produced 8 ,320, ,644 pounds, compared
with 100, ,672,920 pounds in August, q
decrease Of 1852 ,276 pounds, or more
than II per cent. in September a year
ago the same companies turned out
80,610,575 pounds, when the trade had
Tot yet recovered from the slump fol-
lowing the signing of the armistice.

Reading Preferred Stocks

The persistent strength Of Reading
first and second preferred in the face
OF the common stocks failure to con
tnue the advance begun few days
ago is puzzling the speculative com
munlty. In some quarters it is argued
that the action Of the two senior issues
reflects the belief that directors have
determined the dissolution decree of
the United States Supreme Court has
terminated their right to call the stocks
no Importance the conversion feature
attaching to the second preferred. as
the dissolution may have to recognize
the equal claims of all the stockho olders.
1t IS the general opinion in any event
that there is a chance of a big surprise
in the Reading case.

Passing the Buck

Wall Street was more amused than
alarmed yesterday at the charges made
by Comptroller of the Currency VIII
Jams with regard to alleged manipuia-
tion of the call money market. But
bankers and brokers were exceedingly
retlcent about commenting publicly
upon. the charges of the Comptroller.
The bankers generally were inclined to
pass the buck to the brokers, while
the brokers' thought it was up TO the
bankers to do the explaining. Officiais
of the New York Stock Exchange re-
fused to make any comment whatsoever
upon the statement of the Comptroller

In Wall Street
Still Wait FOR Rally

The rank and file Of stock market
followers arc still waiting for the much
advertised election rally. Yesterdays
price movement was = plain disap-
pointment to those who had expected
that easier money conditions would
encourage the big operators to turn
their activities to the bull side. But
there was no sign or indication that
these folks, who have played SO i'm
portant a part in recent operations,
had changed their attitude. With few
exceptions, the results Of the day
transactions were on the minus side.
Bear traders had fresh ammunition to
work with in the news of additional la
Dor unrest in London.

American Linseed

American Linsecd's plan of recapital-

been watching this situation closely,
may be made public some time this
week. In these quarters it is said that
1t should affect favorably the present
preferred stock, which is to be eX-
for first preferred. The new

issued to the new British interests that
are buying into the company.

Sugar Situation

Bankers here were without definite
knowledge yesterday Of the plans. re-
ported to be under consideration in
Washington as the result Of the con-
ference Of sugar and financial inter-
ests, for relieving the present crisis
in Cuba. Private advices received
from Havana by leading banking
house were to the effect that condi-
tions in the island republic were not
so bad as pictured. The fifty-day
moratorium has naturally dad the ef-
feet of Quieting things down, and the
bankers are confident that by Decem-
Der l, when the official ban is lifted,
naking possible a restoration of nor
NAL business activities, conditions will
have undergone marked improvement.

Heavy Withdrawals To-day

The Treasury is scheduled to with
draw s31, 100000 from its deposits in
LEGAL banks to-day. This may have a
hardening effect temporarily upon the
call money market, although the banks
are understood to be in good cash
position for the moment at least, as a
result Of the heavy maturing obliga-
tions during the last week. United
States Treasury deposits with the
Clearing House banks at the end of

Talk Lower Copper Prices

The average offering price IF copper
is now 16 cents, and even at that figure
but little actual business is being done.
Predictions were made in the trade
yesterday that the price would have
to be cut still further before buyers
will be attracted. The same psychol
ogy is working in copper as in the
markets for other commodities. The
consumer who needs metal is holding
off because he hopes to be able to buy
more chcaply later on.

E. 1t Finds Bread Short;
Warns He Will Prosecute
HPracfice is Continued

Any Richmond grocer who sells
bread baked by Ohio bakers, or any
Indiana representative of these bakers
which does not weigh up to the
amount printed on the wrapper, is
liable to criminal charges after Feb.
IS, according to announcement Mon
day, by William A. Hunt, city inspec-
tor of weights and measure.
Rumors that Ohio bakers had been
shipping bread into Richmond, marked
one pound, which upon weighing
show but II ounces, reached Hunt
last week. He Investigated, found
the rumors to be true. he said, and
Saturday conferred with the state
commissioner of weights and measures
I. r. Miller, at Indianapolis, who au-
thorized him to issue the warning.
Indiana baking laws require that
bread can only be baked in pound,
pound and a half. pound and three
quarters and all units of pound" said
Hunt. These bakers have been
shipping bread into Richmond which
was labeled one pound and weighed
but IL ounces, and their alleged "a
ounce loaves weight but 20 ounces.
"By this practice the Ohio bakers
are breaking state law by selling
a 12 ounce loaf of bread. and a Federal
law by misrepresen of products.
A heavy penalty is attached to either
offense."

Bolsheuiki Concentrate
Troops for Spring Drive

PARIS, Sunday, Feb. 16-Boslheviki
military leaders are taking advantage
of the cold clear weather to improve
their positions along the Polish battle
front, according to advices received
here.
The principal point of concentration
on the northern front is near Smo-
lensk, where a crack division arrived
recently after a months rest. In two
other districts near Gomel, in the
center of the line, and not far from
Kiev, further south-the Sovite troops
are utilizing main line railroads ex-
tending to the interior of Russia
Direct communication from Gomel.
Smolensk, and Miev is impossible, as
no railroad parallels the present Boil
sheviki front, and military authorities
who have come recently from Poland
are unable to say wheather the Reds
will remain at their concentration
points or be distributed for the early
spring drive which has been predicted
in the event of failure to open peace
negotiations with Poland.
One of the best Bolsheviki divis-
ions is reported to have arrived at
Smolensk in addition to the troops
brought from rest camps, and several
other divisions have been shifted to
that district during the last few weeks.

whitewater CHURCH
BURNS; LOSS $4,000

WHITEWATER, Ind. Feb. 16-Fire,
believed to have been caused by an
overheated furnace, completely des-
troyed the Christian church here Sun
day afternoon, with a loss estimated
at Sly ~. The fire started shortly
after noon , and owing to hieh winds,
and lack of fire fighting ipment,
the building was soon lost.
Calls for assistance were made to
nearby towns, but none of the appeals
were answered. Neighbors and mem
bers of the congregation formed a
bucket brigade, but this proved ineffic-
lent against the flames, which were
famed by high winds.
The fire was first noticed by persons
living near the chirch, who saw smoke
pouring from the windows. Efforts
were made to remove some of the fur
n1ture and books from the structure,
but the dense smoke that filled the
entire building made this impossible.
Only a few chairs from the rear Of the
building were saved
The church was built in 1875. 1t
was insured for $1,000.
