Emperor William visited recently
little Silesian town where certain mill
tary maneuvers were conducted. The
burgomaster took it upon himself to in
troduce various of the town dignitaries
to his Majesty. Fourteen of them were
standing in line, and the mayor began
as follows: "Herr Peter Paul Schmidt
his Majesty the German Emperor, King
of Prussia, MargraVe of Brandenburg,
Herr Heinrich Wilhelm Sauorkraut-
his Majesty the German Emperor, the
King of Prussia, Margrave of Branden-
berg" When the burgomaster pro-
ceeded to introduce Herr Leberwurst to

him, laughingly, with tho remark:

Lead and Silver.

In New York, lead has remained steady
throughout the week, and this has been
due, says an authority, not so much IN the
demand as to the scarcity of the metal,
which is such that consumers find it diff
cult to supply their current wants. 1t Is
quite evident that under the new regula-
tions of the treasury a large amount OF
Mexican lead has been shut out OF this
country; besides this, it is believed in the
east that western production has fallen of
somewhat, with good consumption going on
for all purposes, and the small stocks held
in New York have been gradually absorbed.
In St. Louis, the metal is very scarce,
and prices are firm and show symptoms OF
an advance.
In Chicago, the market also rules firm.
The local trade has taken lead literally,
and the demand for shipment has also been
quite large.
In Salt Lake, the metal opened at S4.75
at which figure it remained during the en-
tire week
Silver has shown q downward tendency
