New York, Nov. 9.-Silver, 70s;
Copper, $9.65; Lead, $3.50.
SALT LAKE, Nov. Tt is stated that
the Rio Grande Western has effected
reduction OF nearly thousand dollars
day in expenses since the management
first commenced to retrench.
The Liberal party last night held
grand parade, the last to take place be.
fore election, which occurs to-day. The
weather here this morning is clear and
cool and the prospects for heavy vote
are good.
The Citizens committee states that
they have forccasted the result Of the
election to-day and that their majority
will be about 1000. They take 1850 of
the 1900 registered, as their portion,
leaving the Liberals about $500. They
seem to be sure Of the first, second,
third and fourth precincts and possibly
the fifth. The Liberals deny these
figures and claim that their average ma.
! jority will be 600. The polls close to-
day at Sis p. m.
The chief interest in the election in the
East to-day will center in Virginia and
Ohio. The question will be, what ma
jority Mckinley, who is looked upon as
the next Republican candidate for Presi-
dent. will get in Ohio. The dispatches
this morning put it at $4,000. It is
thought by others that it will be nearer
$1,000 than $4,000. 1t is expected that
tho Populists will carry Virginia.

SALT LAKE, Nov. S.--The result Of tn,
City election yesterday was a grea
| triumph for the Citizens Independent
ticket. 1t elected all its city officers OK
cept Treasurer and the vote for tina
Office is so close that it will take a

10 At four o'clock it looked as though Il
4 Liberals would score an almost compile

leaders. When an idea Of the exa
