Copper-American copper producers,
1t was said yesterday In trade circles,
would likely take hut passive part in
the early stages Of the Forthcoming
conference Of world producers to discuss
curtailment. Trade interests say that
our import tariff of cents pound

in the parley until the European pro-
ducers have had an opportunity to
survey the situation as 1t affects them
In world markets.
Dried fruits-California advices re-
port continued steadiness in principal
items, but with actual business limited.
Local markets have been quieter in the
last few days, but the lull has not thus
far affected prices, which are generally
firm.
Fuel oil-On circles report a more
active demand for fuel oil in response
to colder weather Less is heard OF
price shading, and some interests in
the trade say the market Is in posi-
ton to advance on any sustained period
Of colder weather.
Tin Observation-Disclosures are said to
be confident that the recent cut OF 80
cents a box will stimulate demand. 1t
is said that many Gamers have ex-
pressed complaint on the cost OF con-
tainers, and are likely to cover their
wants more freely on the basis OF the
lower prices for plate.
Wool goods-It is reported that mills
are preparing to bring out diversified

MARYLAND CROPS HURT
AND AIDED BY RAINS
Pastures, Fall Grains and Late Po-
tatoes Benefited, but Other
Commodities Damaged.

Heavy rains during october and No
vember have been both beneficial and
harmful to State crops. according to
Richard c. Ross, statistician for the
Maryland Crop Reporting Service. at
College Park According to Mr.. Ross
pastures. early sown Fall grains and
late potatoes in some sections have
been helped by the wet weather. but,
on the other hand, grain sowings have
also been retarded and there has been
some potato rot where harvesting has
not been completed. Late cut hays.
particularly annual legumes, have also
been damaged somewhat by the late
rains.
Late reports, Mr.. Ross states, show
that the average acreage yield Of pota-
toes and sweet potatoes, particularly the
LATTER, this year are somewhat lower
than in 1891. However, 1t is pointed
out that total production Of potatoes for
this year is only slightly under that
Of last year and only about 1000
bushels less than the average for the
period 19l9-1923. Sweet potato pro-
duction this year is only slightly under
the average, but is about 80o,000 bushels
less than in 1881.
While the harvesting OF the 1882
corn crop is only partially completed
at the present time, a preliminary esti-
mate places the yield at 15,540, ,000
bushels. or about 80 bushels to the
acre-8 bushels less than last year and
nearly bushels less than the 1o-year
average for the State. According to
Mr.. Ross, there are about 900 00C
bushels of old corn on Maryland farms
at the present time, compared with
only 10000 bushels this time last year
However. he explains that reserves were
very small last year because OF low pro-
duction In the drought year 1890.

To Yuletide Tables

Slithery Cargo.
BY the Associated Press.

| BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 21.-Two
| ice-covered barges brought 100000
pounds Of squirming Christmas deli
cacies into New York Harbor yesterday.
The submerged holds of the craft
held 10000 slithery eels from the North.
Eight husky French-Canadians had
battled gale and snow and ice-jammed
waterways to get their wiggling cargo
down here on time for the holidays.
Between now and Saturday the live
eels will find their way into thousands
of home in the East, where, boiled or
fried, they form the piece de resistance
of traditional Christmas eve fish dinners,
and are as big part Of the holiday
ritual as evergreen trees or holly
wreaths.
Escape Cold Waters.
Long before any one started counting
the number of shopping days to Christ
mas the eels in the North began their
annual wiggle into warmer waters.
Often they swim 1000 miles to get away
from freezing temperatures.
The four month job of catching and
shipping the slippery creatures is
tinged with drama. for every move must
be perfectly timed and the eelS must be
kept alive.
Beginning in September, fishermen
place nets in Canadian rivers. When
the tide goes out the captives are load
ed onto barges. Some years the fisher
men get as much as IL cents a pound.
This year the 160,000 pounds will bring
about $32 900 in the wholesale market
I,rl1 to
pay $4,000 to S64,00O for them.
The journey down from Quebec was
particularly slow and hazardous this
year, explained Joseph Bellerieve. skip

His eyebrows went up and he held
out his hand in hopeless gesture.

Christmas eels.
Such catastrophe also means dire
year for the French-Canadians who de-
pend on the profit from the eel ship

That is why the two bargeS, as they
crunched through icy waters, were rae
ing for something more than the honor
of bringing the first eels into New York.
And this year they both won.
