It fs Liable to Remain Firm for
Some Time to Come.

Lead was very quiet throughout las
week, with a slight inclination to soften IL
price from Its previous ruling, but the
movement is looked upon as a f%uctuation
merely and not the commencement Of any
| decline, and in fact there is nowhere any
evidence Of any large stock which could
cause O decline. Says the last weekly cir
cular issued by Messrs. Mathews & Webb,
ore and bullion brokers of Denver: The
first shipments Of q possible q 1000 tons of
Richmond" to New York has caused
some timidity among buyers, but none Of
this lead can arrive there much before No.
vember or December and consequently
cannot be OF the least use for the Fall de-
mand, which is over by the middle Of No
vember, and therefore il cannot disturb
our present market. The sales OF the week
reached about 900 tons-very light dis
tribution for this time of the year-at
81 12k and 81 Is, st. Louis and
Chicago, and 81 rs New York. There
was considerable talk about lead
bringing 81 40 at St. Louis, but
il was only in very small quanti-
ties. Holders at the West found any
large sales at that figure impossible. On
the whole the lead situation still remains
very strong, and its apparent ofish furry
must soon be checked by the demand, for
the Horn Silver Company is producing
nothing. and that is a loss Of at least / 900
IONS per month. which, so far as we can
learn, 10 not being made up in any other
locality, and during nc year since 1870 has
our annual consumption been $4,000 tons
less than our production. II is therefore
logical and fair to assume that under these
circumstances the figures of 1885 will
show q shortage which must be made up
either from out Of the Richmond surplus
or by importation. The present London
price permits lead TO be laid down at New
York, duty paid, at AZ cents.
