THE TIN MARKET. FIRM TONE IN LONDON LONDON, Oct. 24. An outstanding feature cf the metal market is the firmness of tin. According to one of the leading brokers, conditions making for higher prices seem to gather strength. Tiie high premiums commanded by Straits and Banku tin in the East have induced consumers to turn attention to English refined tin, causing large withdrawals from English warehouses and a diminution of the already limited quantity on warrant. Considering the daily volume of transactions on London, the available stock of standard tin is inadequate to the neds of the market, and the contango on forward tin has been replaced by “backwardation.”—A. and N.Z.C.A.
