Foreign Conditions
Reviewed by U. s. Department
of Commerce

European cables to the depart
nent Of commerce report caution
in Belgium. inspired by political
and exchange uncertainties, tho in
dustry Is generally active; a steady
decline in German imports; dull
ness in Scandinavia, except in
Sweden, where the outlook is good,

laxed in the last named country.
Business Is brisk in Spain, export
trade is stimulated by the falling
exchange value OF the peseta, and
Spanish trade with France, both

METAL Markell
is STILL QUIET
Reactions Show Influence of
Foreign Conditions

NEW YORK. Nov. 27.-The En-.
gineering and Mining Journal
Press in its current issue says:
The behavior Of the metal mar
kets during tho last week has been
an excellent illustration of the in
ternadonal relations OF prices Ow-
ing to the weakness displayed in
London metal circles. the sudden
rise In copper was abruptly check
ed and the slab zinc market de-
clined.
Even lead Is slightly auieter. al
tho there has been no reflection OF
this condition in prices The un-
certain political situation abroad is
mainly responsible for tho lack Of
strength in the non-ferrous metals
there.
The copper market has shown
sudden reversal Of form. After III
ing with a 10 ID cent price, ~
market made an almost headlong
plunge downward, soaring off near
~ all buying. and as soon as it
became apparent that the market
had turned definitely toward lower
prices the situation was aggra-
waited.
Sales could only be made by pres
sure from producers who were viii.
ing TO sell at daily concessions. Tho
highest price received was 10 SIS
cents delivered: the lowest OF which
Prices OF producers are by no
means demorallzed. and there is
feeling In the trade that IL the
metal is not pressed on the market
for the next two weeks prices will
again show an upward tendency.
Export business has been unsatis-
factory, foreign prices dropping
about as quickly as those in the
domestic market.

broker must sell his 100 shares at
