Sharp Break at London
Adds to Confusion in -
Domestic Market.
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 23.—Lead
ing sellers of copper for delivery in
the United States stayed out of a
confused market today while they
watched violent gyrations In metal
prices in London.
Nominally the domestic quotation
of the red metal was 14 cents a pound,
to which It was advanced last week
on an excited wave of world buying
attributed partly to expectation of
increasing armament demand.
But the home price was more than
a cent and a half under the world
price, despite a sharp setback in Lon
don, and little metal was reported
changing hands in this market pend
ing a settlement of the uncertainty.
The export quotation changed so
rapidly, following a rise above 17
cents during yesterday’s holiday in
this country, home sellers were un
willing to quote until the atmosphere
cleared.
Meanwhile, metal shares continued
to hold the spotlight in the stock ex
change. Anaconda, Kennecott, Cerro
de Pasco and other mining stocks
opened a few cents to about <2 a share
higher, extending last week’s sharp
gains, but yielded part of the rise
later as United States Steel, Chrysler,
Du Pont and Westlnghouse fell
sharply.
A block of 40,000 shares of Park
Utah Consolidated Mines, with ex
tensive proporties in Utah, changed
hands at the opening at $7.50 a share,
up more than $1.
On the commodity exchange copper
futures spurted .30 to .72 of a cent a
pound as traders speculated on the
chance domestic sellers would follow
London with another mark-up of a
cent or so.
LONDON, February 23 OP).—The
price of copper broke the equivalent of
1 cent a pound in the metal exchange
today following yestei day's hectic riaa
of more than 2 cents to the equivalent
Of 17 cents a pound.
About 5,000 tons changed hands at
today’s figure of £65 2 shillings 6
pence a ton, equivalent to 16 cents a
pound. Conditions In the market
were quiet with the turnover about
half that of the previous session.
Tin continued its advance, closing
at the equivalent of 61 cent a pound,
compared with #0.8 cents yesterday.
