Injunction ON the Richmond Pile.
Lead has reached 81 per hundred
pounds, and the indications are that it may
advance still further, as consumer admit
that the price may reach Az cents and
they be compelled to pay it for a time at
least. The 1884 product Of lead was 1884,
897 short tons, or 1000 toms less than for
1888. The total value. at the average price
of SIS 80 per ton on the Atlantic seaboard,
would amount to $10,5 37, O42, or a decrease
in value of 81, 1855, SIT from the prices Of
the previous year. The Engineering and
Mining Journal says: "The Western
smelters are reported to be nearly all in
the deal to hold lead for a rise, and as
the Richmond 5000 tons are held under
injunction until the decision Of the Su-
preme Court, possibly some years hence,
and we are informed would further be held

Last Wednesdays circular from the Office
of Mathews 4 Webb, ore and bullion bro
kers of Denver, has the following enthusi-
astic notice: LEAD has pushed itself nobly
forward and the year of jubilee has come.
At New York the prices have worked stead
lily up to 4 cents, and are now on that
basis there, with all the large holders slow
to sell and inclined to ask even much
higher figures. The sales of the week at
the various distributing points, however,
do not foot up more than 1000 tons, say
300 at St. Louis at 81 cents, as much
more at 50 80, Chicago, and 400 at New
York at So 80 to So IS and at the close 4
cents, with Ala cents asked. Manufao-
turers are making every effort not to buy,
but the situation begins to look very
serious for them and there is every proba-
bility that they will all, and OF necessity,
be forced to come in at once. The ore
supply is short on all sides, and so much
so that even some cool heads believe that
several thousand tons of lead must be
imported this year-simply to meet actual
necessities. Good authorities declare
without hesitation that such q scarcity of
offerings of pig lead has not been expert
enced for twenty years-Dot since the
middle of the war, when the article
brought 16 cents currency per pound. The
present importation price is Az cents,
New York, and low lead again in 1885

AN OLD STORY.
A Nevadan's Experience What
Was and Is.


The following from the San Francisco
Post of last Wednesday is concerning a
former Nevadan named Shawhan, who
operated largely in stocks, especially ON
the Comstock, and who at one time rose
from the ordinary financial walks OF life
until he was worth nigh onto o cool mill
ion. He purchased a large and valuable
building site in San Francisco with the in
tention OF building thereon q home OF
magnificent pretensions for himself, wife
and family. The first and only structure
he put on the lot was a stable and carriage
house. which cost upwards OF S9O,O0O TO
build, 80 expensive and magnificent was
its general character. Plans ann specihca-
tions for the house were then drawn, but
before they were acted upon stocks
tumbled, and the market went against
Shawhan 10 the extent that he was stranded
financially, and afterwards domestic
troubles followed, Of which this item
is one of the latest results: the
suit OF Mary A. Shswhan against +.
A. Finigsn for the possession OF the Two
fifty-vsra lots on the northwest corner OF
California ond Jones streets, and the eie-
CANT stable thereon, is on trial before
Judge Reardon. The property is worth
$100, 900. Mrs. Shawhan charges that the
property was bought in 1875 from E. ID
Miller with $50, 900 OF her money, but tina
the deed was made out in his name instead
of hers. She alleges that Finigan con
spired with her husband to defraud her OF
the property. Finigan claims TO nave
bought the property in good faith and sets
up the statute of Limitation"

LABOR AND CAPITA l..
Eloquent Remarks of Hon.. #. w.
Cole, Formerly Of Eureka, at Ana
cOnda, Mon tana. ON the Fourth.

Eloquent Remarks of Hon. II. w.
Cole, Formerly OF Eureka, at Ana
cOnda, Montana. ON the Fourth.
Hon. F. W. Cole, formerly of Eureka,
delivered an Grafton at Anaconda on the
Fourth. From the eloquent address,
which is too long for entire publication,
we reproduce the following, as being Of
particular interest to this section:
The other great question flowing out OF
this condition Of affairs as we'll as from
other sources is the relation Of labor to
capital and the reciprocal duties of each.
This is q subject upon which no discussion
to any great length can be entered on this
occasion, for the simple reason that per-
haps nothing new or fresh can be said.
Besides, here again We approach what
may be called forbidden ground, and if
anything is said about the enormous en-
croschments Of capital on labor and its de-
sire to keep what il holds secure, with the
vast accumulations added year by year, the
cry of communism is raised, and If it is
suggested that a system which makes the
rich richer and the poor poorer is wrong,
the author OF such suggestion ia forthwith
proclaimed a tramp or o fiend who works
to destroy the foundations Of society.
These are the stale and worn out objec-
tons which entrenched wrong has ever in
terposed when its citadel has been at
tackled.
1t may not be amiss, however, to say a
word or two on this subject to the assem-
bly, Of persons, 80 many Of whom live by
daily labor and honest work. Capital
does, and always will. protect itself by
combination. Let labor heed this and
learn the lesson we'll. Labor can only
protect itself by following the example
by combining. A house divided against
itself cannot stand. II the friends Of
labor are divided they will be conquered.
II capital can combine to reduce wages,
there Is no law which forbids workmen
from combining to keep wages at a fair.
living rate. Do not misunderstood the
position. Nothing by violence-every-
thing within the law. No good can come
from a wrong act. but those who labor
should fortify themselves in the right, de-
mand what is just, keep within the law,
and they will be more powerful than an
army with banners.

The Comstock Pax.RoIls.

The aggregate of the June pay-rolls OF
Oomstock mining companies as!published
by the Chronicle exceeds the sum paid for
labor in May by S12, 900 or more. The
pay-rolls of the Kentuck. Overman, Alta,
Monte Christie, Chollar groupings, Wood
Vile and several smaller mines, aud those
OF the mills, will raise the excess to nearly
$50, 900, or 90 per vent more than the
aggregate for May, which was about $3.50,
600. By including the above in the pay
rolls for June they will foot up nearly
$50. 900. This is rather smore than "t
slipht increase"

A Profitable colorado Mine.

The Freeland Mining Company paid q
dividend Of 10 cents per share, or $40, 900,
on the 1st, making $4,000 paid this year.
The Freeland mine 10 located at Idaho
Springs, Colorado, and is under the su-
perintendence OF that severely-sedate ex-
Comstocker, Frank Osbiston. Mr.. John
W. Mackay went to look al this mine a few
years ago,r rather liked its looks, bought it,
and engaged Mr.. Osbiston to develop
it. This he has done very successfully, as
the net profit OF $40, 900 q month proves.

Talk.

An Ogden correspondent writing on the
7th to the Salt Lake Tribune says he over
heard a conversation between three elders
il front of the Postofice there on that day,
which ran as follows:
First Elder--It is a thousand wonders
Brother Crow did not kill a dozen of them
Second Elder-And if they had tried to
raise that flag to full mast there would
have been more than one GENTLE sent to
eternity.
Third Elder-Well, you just wait until
the Oath and we'll show them how we'll
hoist the flag to half-mast. Not only
that, we'll hoist it all dripping with mud,
and let us see them help it. / tell you,
brethren, not a Gentle will dare interfere.
While these elders no doubt expressed
the average Mormon sentiment, il is safe
to predict that the American flag will not
fly at half-mast on the day they celebrate,
They blundered with the flag once; they
have not the cour age to repeat the blunder

Death of an Unfortunate Miner.

Charles s. Schiller, formerly 3 Com
stock miner. was found dead last Wednes-
day in Spanish Canyon near Reno. From
the appearance of the body it would indi-
cate that he had been dead three or four
days. The place where he was found
showed that he had crswled about on his
hands and knees and dug with his hands
among the rocks, as though hunting for
water. He was found with his head and
the trunk of his body in water two or three
inches deep. The supposition is that he
became dersnged and wandered about
until exhausted. and relieved by death, as
no marks Of violence could be discovered
by DR.. Dawson. He was about so years of
age and dressed In a suit of tan-colored
canvass clothes. The poor old man being
a victim of ~inflammatory rheumatism, must
have suffered great pain, and it seems a
sad ending of probably q useful life. He
was buried in the potter's field at Reno on
Thursday.
