The receipts of cattle were fair. A good
many good cattle were on the market but
buyers were all full handed and took hold
slow. The local butchers bought only the
choicest of the offerings, which left the
bulk to be taken by shippers and specula-
tors Some extra cows sold for Christmas
beef for fancy prices. This class of stock
will be in good demand until holidays.
Reports from eastern markets showed
tendency toward lower prices and buyers
took advantage of the decline. The mar
ket declined 5a10 cents and was dull at
the close.

Lead and Silver.

Lead in New York has been dull and neg
lected, and, without any pressure of sales,
prices have gradually given way The fol-
lowing paragraph appeared in late New
York paper: ''Six lead manufacturing
companies consolidated their interests YES
terday by sinking their several individual
Identities and merging them into new
corporation, to be known as the National
Lead and Oil company, with capital of
s., 100000. All these concerns were pre-
vlously members of the National Lead trust,
and the new consolidation is "a sort of trust
within trust. This action is taken, so the
promoters say. simply for the purpose of
securing economy in production and distri-
button Of products The companies which
have consolidated with the new National
Lead and Oil company, each with repre-
sentative, and the board of trustees. are
the following, all IN this city and it's vicin-
ity: Brooklyn White Lead company, the
Lenox Smelling company, the George
White Lead company, the Ulster Lead com
pany, the Union White Lead company and
New York Lead company"
In Chicago, more business has been doing,
but at slightly lower prices.
In st. Louis, lead has been quiet, but
rather firm. The productions of pig lead
appear to be on the increase
In Salt Lake, lead opened at So. SIS. and
closed at the same figure last evening.

The American Fork Mines.

This old-time camp has scarcely been
heard from during late years, but it is said
that the present season will see great
awakening, considerable capital having
been placed at the disposal those inter
ested. New concentrating works are in
process of erection. The Independent, in a
late issue, has the following:
The Lone Pine is owned by E. H. Bolev
& Co. 1t has we'll defined vein of galena
and carbonate. There is tunnel in some
seventy-fve feet and about fifty feet of an
incline
The Old Miller is owned by r. N Baskin,
OF Salt Lake, and Rowland and Asp:nWall.
Of New York. There has been a greatdeal
of ore shipped from this claim, one ore BODY
alone yielding $3.50, 900 worth of ORE Too
much water has stopped the work, but it
will doubtless be resumed.
The Dutchman has been a constant pro-
Queer ever since 1871, though work has
been suspended awaiting the putting in of
pumps and other improvements. The
Omaha Smelling company are the owners.
The Austin mine, owned by John Tier
nan, of Salt Lake, is another good pros
pect that contains rich ore scattered
through very wide vein. There needs hut
a concentration to render this a fine paving
property.
The Queen of the West, the property of
j. McVicker, is another excellent claim
The Milkmaid, owned by T. d. Cliff.
James Chapman and H. W. Owens, has
shipped some 400 tons of ore. There are
some $50 feet of an incline shaft, and over
200 feet of drifts, all showing ore. The
owners are now running tunnel to tap the
shaft, and when this is completed shipping
will be resumed.
The Ontario, property of VIM and Chad
wick, has shipped some 100 tons of ore and
may be counted amongst the producers. 1t
is now being gotten into good shape for the
coming season.
The North Star, owned by H. w. Owens.
is another good claim.
The Silver Bell is splendid claim. Quite
quantity of ore has been shipped from
this property, and more is in sight. The
claim is owned by Mr.. Shaughnessy, of
Salt Lake

Provo Slate Mines.

Last Saturday, a lease of the Mammoth
Lode Slate mine, situated about one and
one half miles from the mouth of Slate
canon, east of Provo, was consummated
between parties in Provo and a syndicate
OF Colorado capitalists.
The mine is 1,500 feet in length by 600 in
width, consisting of some very superior
slate ore, which will be rapidly developed
by the parties leasing the nine, and slate
for roofing purposes placed on the market
at an early date. They have already con-
tracts to furnish roofing for buildings in
Provo inside of sixty days
Messrs. r. S. Hines, A. o. Smoot ir.. w
G. A. Smoot, ir., Joseph F. Thompson and
Joseph McEwan, the owners of the mine.
are to receive a royalty of 10 per cent on
all products taken from the claim, or if the
parties leasing the mine shall wish to pur-
chase it they may do so before the extra
ton Of the lease, which is drawn up for
two years, by paying for it the sum of
$40, 0O0, 900.
Work is progressing finely on the Nam
mouth Lode, and the parties leasing the
mine seem satisfied that they have secured
a good thing. The gentlemen signing the
