Lead has been knocked from pillar to
post, and each whack has knocked il
down a bit. At New York, demon aliza-
ton could not be more complete, and a
general opinion looks toward $3.50 @
So 25 q So as the prices respectively for
the next three months. 1t is stated that
there are $4,000 TONS of pig-lead there,
but the most careful and reliable state
ments place it at IS 900 tons. Of this
quantity, at least 1900 tons are held
by bankers for account of other parties
and under advance loans at and around
cents. and is not likely to come into
the market until a profit is shown over
and above that figure, but the balance
Is held by the owners, and may be sold
at any time. The official figures for
the week there show sales running up
close to 5000 tons, but these were
largely advertised legal sales where the
lead was bought in by the owners, and
the difference charged up to the bank
rupt firm. 1t appears that nearly 1000
tons had been bought IN England, and
ordered shipped to New York in order
to break the market and now probably
every pound of it will be re-shipped to
London. Lead opened in Salt Lake on
Monday at So 6219. Yesterday, the
figure was $3.75.

A Leading authority on the western
stock market says there is actually no
bottom tothe cattle market, and prices
are yet seeking lower level on about
everything. 1t is an extremely difficult
matter to give any very close view of
the business on any grade, for the rea-
son that at times no sale could be made
of fair lot, while again, if it caught
the fancy of the buyer, it would sell
well up to former figures for equal lots.
Prices throughout have deprecated
from 20@40 cents, dressed beef cattle
showing tue greatest decline. and choice
feeders the least. No improvement is
expected for a few weeks at least. An
other authority says: "a great many
people have the idea that after the pres
ent run of range cattle is exhausted,
very much better prices will prevail on
the native product. don't believe
much better prices will be had before
next spring anyhow, if as early as
then. 1 tell you there are oceans OF
cattle throughout this country at the
present time, and unless l miss my
guess badly there will be no improve
ment in prices on anything"

Political excitement must have pre-
vented great many transactions dur
ing the past week in the east, and yet
the volume of business has been sur
prisingly large. Outside of New York
there is a general increase in bank
clearings over last year of about y
per cent; but substantially the entire
increase of 20 per cent. at Boston may
be traced to unusual speculations in
stocks; probably the gains of 7 per
cent. at Philadelphia, and Al per cent.
at San Francisco, are mainly of the
same nature; and the speculation in
wheat and other products sWells ex-
changes at Chicago and st. Louis. Yet,
outside of these points, there is a CON
siderable and general increase in the
clearings, and, in view of large dealings
earlier in the season, this increase, even
in the heat of Presidential contest,
indicates a remarkable expansion of
trade. At New York, On the other
hand, a decrease of 10 per cent. appears.
which the difference in speculative
activity does not fully explain AS
usual, interior reports indicate very
satisfactory volume of trade, and these
accounts are so general that only few
exceptions call for mention. Less
activity IS noted at Pittsburgh, quiet
trade and slow collections at Memphis,
and slower collections at st. Paul, with
more careful scrutiny of accounts by
jobbers. At Cleveland, too, manufac-
turing is rather hesitant, and the
money market tends towards strin-
gency. Considerable liquidation ap-
pears at Atlanta, but increasing cotton
receipts give promise Of greater activity
there and at Memphis. The Treasury

Lead Still Low.

Faint symptoms of the approaching
holiday trade are reported by our larg-
est wholesale merchants; and already
do the upper stories of their buildings
contain choice and tempting displays
that will not be shown in the retail de-
partments for six weeks or so. Buyers
living at distance have ordered their
stocks, but these, of course, are small
and cut but little figure. Business,
during the week past, has been fair to
middling; the present week will doubt
less be one of stagnation, owing to the
excitement naturally consequent upon
the Presidential election and loca
politics.
AS intimated in THE HERALD few
days ago, would be the case, the three
Ogden -four mills-Advance Eagle and
Ph@nix-have pooled and formed a
combination to be hereafter known as
the Ogden Milling and Elevator Com
pany, the :object being to maintain a
uniformity of prices-which, of course,
means higher prices. So far as can be
learned, however, while having reached
an agreement as to the price -four shall
hereafter be sold, our Salt Lake millers
have formed no trust or pool. Flour
advaroed 25 cents per hundred couple
of weeks ago, and those on the inside
are not at all slow in asserting that we
look for another rise of Is cents within
few days.

under the resolution recently
adopted by the City Council,
prohibiting the canyon from be-

pose, has been generally hailed with
delight. Those Who resided for few
weeks among the sylvan shades of City
Greek last year, are already making
plans for brief sojourn there again
this season. The canyon presents a
lovely appearance at the present time
and the only thing needed to make il
one of the biggest attractions the city
affords, is to construct the road recent
