COPPER PRODUCERS' FIGURES The Frodiicera' Htntement, which was published Wrd nenUiiy of thin week, WO an good as expected, but it filled to stlmulff any buying In the metal. 'Iho -tock ot marketnble copper on hand October 1st Is the lowest amount since the imsoclithm linn been publishing the luaires. It now stands at 791. 0'.U pounds, or a eVereaso of S,:.20.9n pounds ulnce Sejitember 1st. JCxports held up remarkably well und were only !n tmiH h-H'i than th prelou! month, and or well nbove th averaite monthly exports r far thin year. During tie; month of September, there were experted 7S,flS.r.27i puiniis. This Is much more favorable wlien it in taken into consideration that thn ICuroj can stock of copper on hand and nllo.tt thereto phnwed u deereafo of 4,119 tons ft r the fortnight ending October 1st. Domestic deliveries were the weak f est tiro of the re pott, and totaled only 6fi.RSC.S97 pounds for the month of September, or a decrease of 7,0(10,000 pounds from the previous month's consum(.loii. It in n!o lower than the iicraKe Tor the past eUbt months nnd lower than the avt liiRe for the year 1912. This ha.s been Interpreted as rcflectin the slowing up in business that has been m noticeable In many lines of trade throuuhout the country. The production of 13I,-I01,:".9 for the month of Septem ber was higher than expected on account of the enforced curtailments In the Lnko Superior district and undoubted ly represents considerabb; imrert copper. It is also prob able that the r.-nnerles have, been working to the limit of tin ir capacity in an endeavor to catch up on the nnre tlned copper that accumulated during the summer month when the labor troubles hampered work. This refers par ticularly to the American Smelters refineries at III Papo and the IM.elps Dodge works in N'ew York. Notwithstanding this favoriblo stall mi nt, buyers main tained a lack of Interest the metal market, which w.n so manifest before this was published. Shading of price was again resorted to In an endeavor t mako Rales, and Fmall dealers quoted in lov as l?'i cents, while the larg er Interests are willing to book orders for December de livery at 1 ! cents. Tho large Felling asenclcs stilt maintain a firm iuked prl.-e of 167k cents, but are dolnv no business at this ll.iUie, no it Is quite likely tome con cessions will have to be made to Ptimulate interest on the part of the buyers. CRAN3Y This issue holds remarkably well in the face of the weakness In the other coppers. Its high price of $7K. li lniisl.e'1 product of the Steel companies fall ( '.urease. In I fact, according to all reports, the volume -.f new business j hr.B rdiown a Jecrrnse in many lint of the tridn. V "'hi 11 lion and pteel manufacturers are f-ndeavoilng to look" at; the situation front uu oitiml"tlc j oint of view, the fact j that new biuinens is reduced to i" minimum n not very! eiicriiirnging. It goes without saying that th:s line ' of i business must mljushd to the new eondlt:..r.s. and dur- j ing this period of readjustment, profits are bound l be I cut Into materially. J Dining the past week aearly all prices of U, finished j product lane bet n reduced, and It a nine n d further re-j tluctlons will be made in an endeavor to booh new busi ness. ' The St"el (Yrpo ration's report ir nnfilbd tonnage n. of date of October 1st showed a decrea,. , f .f 19.600 ions from the amount cs repo;i-d on the month previous as' compared with the preliminary estimates of 17.,.00o. ThU makes the ninth consecutive decrease in unfilled tonnage arid brings tho total down to .1.00.:. sr's, and compares will, the record of the eomoany on Deeemht r 191L'. of ", 9:'2.16l tons. Lackawanna Steel company reports unfilled tonnage on October 1st of :T,S,34.-, tons ega'nst 430,i;7r. on June .loth. COPPER EXPORTS Tho exports for the wee!; ending October 9th were R.763 tons, making the total mi far this month Ml-' tons. For the same period a year ago, the exports wire 10,4 1.' t ins. This Is lower than the average daily exports for the year, and in only at the rate ot about 6,l,ooo,ooo pound.-, although it may be possible that exports will be rushed the last lew days of the month, the ame as w.'.s the case dorian the past month.

Allen had prertl. ted that all coal in Michigan would be exhausted in la years, Mr. Allen declares tlu:t what he really said was. that provided the present rate of mining vre maintain ed in the fields of Saginaw and Hav counties already developed, . they would be mined -jut in fifteen years. Mr. .Mbn declines that there arc undeveloped fields so great that the otal supply in Mlchinan can hardly be estimated. It has been known for ycers that tl-ere vast Ii his of bituminous coal l-ndcr th Mi-face of certain sections of Mitnigau in what is known as '.he co;'l belt," but which for various rtasons have never been developed, but which will furnish a source of supply long after the present mine:i have been vacated.
