St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1893-11-03
WITH THE

st. Paul had a great many people
within its gates yesterday from Mon
tana, scattered among the various
hotels. One of them, David Frat. of
Billings, who is a prominent banker in
that city. spoke interestingly of the
prospects for silver in his state, now
that the repeal bill has passed congress-.
He considered that before the mines
could be reopened a reduction of wages
of from $3.50 and 81 per day do w to 50
| and S1.50 would be necessitated by the
existing conditions. In common with
other visitors from silver sections, he
[ thought attention would now be turned
more than ever to gold mining.
Another Montanan thought that not
only must the wage schedule drop, but
that the price of mining machinery
must be cheapened to reduce low grade
ore with profit.
Last evening two guests of the Ryan,
Robert Lumsden, Edinburgh, Scotland,
and Santiago Lumsden, Baenos Ayres,
Brazil, left for the East. The two are
junketing over the United States, and
| spent the day in viewing the sights
