of that conversation seems to have
been that Mr.. Gross went to Holly

departed homeward because he liked

NEW YORK, November 21.-The ap-
probation in the market value of cop
per metal, mining and smelling securi-
ties this year approximates $1,00o,000,-
600, including the high prices that were
feature of yesterdays sensational trad
ing in stocks.
Not since the days when H. H. Rogers
promoted the last big copper merger
has there been anything like the present
craze for copper securities. The public
has gone mad over them, but with more
| justification than exists in respect to
| many other groups of stocks that have
been leaders of the bull market.
Within the year Is copper and smelt-
ing stocks have had an average rise OF
so points. Some of the largest gains in
this industrial list are American Smelt-
ing and Refining, 116 points; 1nterna-
tional Nickel, 1877; Greene Cananea, 80;
Kennicott Copper, Sc; Federal Mining
and Smelling, IS; Anaconda Copper, ST
Cerro de PaSco, about so, and Amer
| lean Zinc, 43 points. Anaconda has
more than doubled in market value, In
| ternational Nickel has risen ITO per
cent, Calumet and Hecla 135 per cent
Greene Cananea 80 per cent. and Chile
| Copper IS per cent.
Naturally this movement has been
| based on the improvement in the copper
| situation, which, in turn, has brought
higher dividends to holders of copper
shares. Since January the stocks oi
copper metal have decreased 100,000,00C
pounds, and are now at the lowest III
years, representing less than a 10 days
supply. The scarcity has pushed up the
price of the metal cents pound, anc
some producers have been able to in
crease their dividends. Kennecott has
raised its rate from Sc to So per annum
and others are expected to follow.
Behind the movement in copper stock:
there is also the possibility of two OF
three large consultations in which sew
eral moderate-siZed producers may be
brought into the Anaconda group. Con
versations' are being held informally
and have given rise to ;extravagan'
rumors of the basis on which the shares
of the independent companies are to bs

DENIES MONEY MARKET
RATES ARE CONTROLLED

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 21.-Money
market rates are high because of the
law ot~supply and demand, not arti-
fetal control, George E. Roberts, vice
president of the National City Bank of
New York, told the National AsSocia-
tion of Finance Companies in confer
ence here yesterday. Mr.. Roberts said
that banks have been giving preference
to general business and letting the stock
market have what they had to spare of
available funds, with the result that
the market has not had enough money
to meet its demand, has been bidding
vigorously for more and thereby has
been making the high rate necessary
to attract the supply of credit wanted.
"It Is not the usual thing to have
money supplied at 5l2 to per cent
for commercial purposes" he said,
while bringing to 71s and sometimes
upon good Stock Exchange collateral.
The explanation, however, is simple
enough. The one is eligible paper,
which can be passed up, If desired, to
the Reserve Bank, and the other is
not. Furthermore, there Is the funda-
mental difference that the one class
of paper represents productive uses and
the other does not. The industries and
business of the country must be car
ried on. They are the basis at last of
even Stock Exchange values and 1t is
important that their needs shall be
supplied at reasonable prices"
Rise in stock values, he said, has re-
suited only in revaluation on paper,
benefits of which cannot compare with
the benefits to be derived from keeping
the regular business Of the country in
motion.
Mr.. Roberts declared that the Fed
eral Reserve System, sometimes blamed
for the tightness of credit, was estab-
lished to give protection and stability
to the credit situation in the interest
of all business and its member banks
would not be justified in applying for
credit for the purpose of supplying 1t
| for purposes, such as investment and
speculative, clearly outside the scope OF
the reserve act,
