Fig iron was more active and
prices were steady. Many Of the
orders were for small lots, but they
were more numerous.
In copper there has been no i'm
provement in demand and continued
competition for small orders has led
to further price shading by second
hands and small producers. Small
lots OF electrolytic are now said to be
obtainable between 12A and 10 cents
for spot or nearby shipment and the

Oils, motors, equipments and steels

Country wide banking conditions,

board, were encouraging. but the To-
