man who had held position Of trust for
q large company doing business in Dallas

has been looked upon Us safe man, and
until now no one doubted his honesty.

Mckinley bill went into operation sill
yer ore was imported free aud lead ore
bore duty Of $50. The largest portion
OF ores smelted in this country have been
for two generations imported from Mex
iro. Mexican ores have been admitted
free until Secretary Window made de-
cision that ores. in which component
parts of the greatest value was silver,
should be classed as silver, and ores in
which lead was component part Of the
greatest value should be classed as lead.
The result of this opinion was to import
almost prohibitire ores imported from
Mexico. Smelters continued to import
ores, because the Mexicans have not yet
been able TO build smelling works, but
the final result will be to throw the
largest portion Of the smelling business
into the hands OF Mexicans Mckinley
inserted tie clause in the tariff bill, pro-
vidIug that even in ores Chased as silver
lead should partially be of one and one
half cents per pound on all lead con-
taiued in ore. The duty on lead ore
was $50 ton, but the duty on
pig lead was raised 10 two cents per
pound. An officer of II large smelling
works said 10 your reporter: ''The
present American smelling companies IN
FL Paso, Kansas City, st. LOUIS. Den
yer, Pueblo and Newark have forced the
Mexican miners 10 reduce their prices so
that smelters can make profit. These
will end, however, when the Mexicaus
get their own smelling works.
Then American smelling companies
will be forced TO raise the price of smelt-
ing and refining. This can not he done
without a trust, and the stronger con-
tidence is expressed by President Thomp-
son of the National lead trust at the sue
cess OF his mission in the West. Then
still higher prices will be added to the
cost OF lead production. and the con-
sumner will be lucky if he does not have
to pay more than six centsper pound.

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The visit of
Col. Thompson, president of the Ma
tioual lead trust, to Chicago for the
purpose of organizing a trust among
lead and silver smelling companies, has
excited comment in Wall Street. Col
Thompson disclaims any direct interest
of the lead trust in the proposed CON-
bination. He SAYS that II will entirely
benefit the lead trust by improving the
situation of all lead AMI silver interests.
1t Is an open secret that the lead
smelling companies Of the country will
have 10 take some action If they wish
10 keep their heads above water. The
policy of the Republican administration
and provisions OF the Mckinley bill
threaten 10 materially diminish, ii they
do not utterly destroy the lead smelt-
ing industry Of the coun-
try. Four-tifths OF the silver

the lead ores contain silver before the
