TEXT	In writing a detailed account of the industries of New York, with some mention of those individual enterprises which have conduced so greatly to the benefit of the community, the fact must not be overlooked that no little vitality has emanated from the metal trade that appears to become more important annually. The demand for metals, and especially tin and ores, in a great city is always considerable, and as no tin mines exist in this country the raw material is of course imported from abroad, and the favorable terms under which it can be brought to this market has led to the importation of tin in large quantities. A leading representative house engaged in the importation of metals is that of Mr. Stephen S. Hopkins, which was established in 1874, and since its inception at that date has commanded a liberal patronage. Mr. Hopkins represents some of the principal European houses, and his facilities are such in being able by virtue of his large operations to buy direct and in such quantities that terms and prices are secured impossible to be obtained elsewhere. Mr. Hopkins is a popular member of the New York Metal Exchange, and has enjoyed a long experience in connection with the financial movements of that body.
