The Lead. Market.

The Salt Lake Chronicle says if the tariff tinkere will let lead alone the prospect for fair prices for that article the coming season is good. The Morrison bill now before Con
 gress for defeat, we trust, proposes to reduce the tax on lead 15 ger cent. This reduction, with the price of lead steady at S425 in New York, would probably enable foreign hold
 CTS of lead to flood our market. It is to be Loged that if any reductions are to be made on imported articles, lead will remain untouched. The lead interests, or in a larger sense, the lead silver industry, will suffer materially should the tax on lead be reduced. Already at present prlces of lead there are large deposits of low grade silver-lead ore which can not be handled with profit. Reduce the tax, and mines now barely pay ing will be closed. Aside from the tariff matter, the prospect of isnme- diate and permanent advance to a pay1ng point iii the price of lead is promising. Owing to various req
 sons, prominent among which is the unusual heavy fall of snow in the mountains all through the mining districts, the outcome from mine and smelter will be less for the next

OleOnlargarine Traffic.

This traffic Is in {. fair way tU be broken up. The New York Senate Committee, which has been investi- gating the business, have made such startling discoveries that strict meas ures will without doubt be enforced against 1t. It was learned from diff ferent witnesses III the case that workers in oleomaFgarine factories after 8 time became diseased Ill q frghtf.l manner; their hands and feet become sore, finger nails drop off. the hair comes out, and teeth be- come loosened and decay.

Rusting Reduction Works in
 ArIZOna.

The Quijotoa Prospector says: The question naturally arises, ''How is 1t that so many fine mills and smelters are going to ruin in a country that is constantly calling for more reduc- ton facilities? To the new arrival it seems a marvel, but it is no mystery to one who has resided f)r some years in Arlzona, and watched the manner in which the mining schemes have been gotten up. That there is any lack of mineral in this country none, we suppose, will venture to as sert. Nor that. reduction works, when erected on a sound business proposition, fail to pay we'll. Wit. ness the Clip mill in Silver district, which is paying $1,0O0 a day, the Esperanza mill at Gro Blanco, the Jessie Benton mill at Owl Heads. the Silver King mill, which has paid over million dollars in dividends, not to mention the Tombstone mills, and many others.
 Their properties are not blazoned forth every week ln the papers. They and many othors work quietly along accumulating wealth for their for tunate owners, who work them at home, not on the New York or San Francisco stock boards. Many mines also, which are seldom heard of are being prohtably worked on an econ omical plan, without an expensive cf- flee and board of mismanagers.
 Now, as to the other manner of operating. A party of eastern cap italists hear of our wonderful miner al resources and commission an ex pert to find them a good opening for their superduous cash. MT. Expert arrives here, and you will suppose, goes to work to find valuable prop erty. Oh no! that is not what he is after. He hunts up some poor devil of a prospector, whose shirt hangs out of his brooches, and who has half a dCz 9n more or less worthless loca- tions, which he would be delighted to sell for $500 Says MT. Expert: You give me bond on these prop critics for $50,000 and when the sale is made I will pay you $5,00O." Needless to say the offer Is accepted The sale is made. The miner gets his S5,00O, of which he will have per haps five dollars left in three months. the expert pockets S45,000, and a handsome fee. A company is ineor porated with we'll salaried officials and handsomely furnished office. A young nephew of one of the owners who has been clerking in a New York law office, and don't know the diff ference between a winze and wlnd- mill, is sent out as superintendent, at $500 a month. Tue first thing to be done Is to-develop the mines :? Not bit of it. To build a mill, of course. So up goes a fine twenty s.s2mp mill. Then about fortnight before it Is ready for work, they com mence to look over tsheir claims for ore, and fnd-they haIn't got aBy. Mill shuts down-if it ever started supe goes back to Gotham and tells lies about the Apaches and native silver; there is one more monument to the folly of eastern capitalists, and one more nall in Arizona's coffin.
 That this description Is exagger- ated, few who have resided i've years in Ar1zona will deny. The moral is 'see that you have a mine before you build a mill"

I%nnyorabIe Cotton neport FROM Houston.

Houston, Sept. Especial. A com-
parativc statement of receipts of new
cotton up to date Of the present year
shows a wonderful falling or from the
number received at corresponding date
of last year. On the first day of Septcm-
her, 1883, the total number of bales of
new cotton received nj this point was
1850. while the receipts of the present
wear foot up only 1903, showing Il fall
ing of of l3,s3l bales. This may be ac-
counted for, however, in the fact the
crop is nearly, ifnot quite, u month later
than last year, and Is not attributable,
rs some would suppose, lathe slfhAness
OF the crop. The outlook for the present
season, however, is not TIA, brightest for
years, and although the staple has be-
gun To arrive pretty freely, IL is evident
the crop throughout the State is short
to some extent, and that prices cannot
rule very high from the fact that pro
auctions in other States are fully up to
the average, and the falling OFF
in the Texas product will not
be sufficient to give the
market any buoyancy ST. far
as prices are concerned. The various
cotton presses of the city began last
week to buckle down in earnest to work.
The Peoples press compressed $40 bales
last Saturday and received 600 more,
which were turned out to day. The Bay
City and other presses have also been
AT work, but the precise number of bales
handled has not been aS%CertainGd.
