Judge Murphy's court room looked as

of the com pany, was first called. His at
torneys endeavoerd TO show that the play

Judge Murphy said it maue no difference
if the play were Hamlet. The play itself

legal means to have the injunction set
aside; that it was which constituted the

meantime Daily will rest in jail unless he
can procure bonds.
Last night when the play was stopped,

Judge Murphy made the actors promisa
that they would make no further attem pt
to produce the play, and they were al

NEW YORK, July 30.-Mayor Strong

today. He had Just returned to his office
after his Vacation at Richfeld Springs
and found awaiting him a delegation
bearing petition that he call Com
missioner Roosevelt off bit from his en-
forcement of the Sunday closing law.
The petition said the enforcement of the
law was causing mncE drunkenness in
tenement houses.
To the delegation Mayor Strong said
Il am sorry, but this will have to he
buried. You know our administration
was elected because Tammany had been
lax in enforcing the laws, especially the
excise law. In fact, the Lexow comm it :
tee procee dings clearly proved that the
excise law had been made, not for en-
forcement. but to bleed the saloon keep
ers. In this strict enforcement we are
working for the saloon-keepers' interest.
The re peal of the law can be brought
about only by enforcing it rigIdly. OF
course, you know. l like saloon keepers

LEAD MINING
Sources Of Production and Consumption Of
the Metal

SOuICeS Ot fTOuuCtiOn dnu Consumption OF
the Metal
WASHINGTON, July 3O.-In discussing
the lead mining industry for 1894 the
geological survey says that the. e.year was
one of exceptionally low prices. Mining
declined and it was necessary to draw on
foreign sources to supply the deficiency.
The production OF refined lead in the
United States has grown from 1900 short
tons in 1925 to 900 in 1894.
The product of 1893 was the largest on
record. amounting to 229. 600 short tons.
The lead markets of the United States are
supplied from four sources. The fist is
from domestic mining. divided between
the soft lead ores of the Mississippi valley
and the silver lead ores of the Rocky
mountains. The second source is Mexico
and British Columbia. The third is the
base bullion sent from Mexico for deliver
ing and refining in bond in this country.
and the fourth is refined foreign lead. The
interlocking sources have greatly comp.
licaled the com pilaton of lead statistics,
and made knowledge of the domestic pro-
duction difficult to obtain. The following
tables show by states the domestic prod
uct smelted Colorado. so, 600 tons; Idaho.
80. 800 tons; Utah. 23. 200 tons Montana,
$500 tons.
Other producing states are Nevada. New
Mexico. ArizoIa, California, Missouri,
Kansas. Wisconsin and Tennessee.
The total domestic production is put at
ZOO tons. The consum ption of lead is
placed ut 102. $40 tons. Prices during the
year ranged from .307 to .30211 per pound

SACRAMENTO. July 30.-Shsrif John.
son. Detective Thscker ana some other
officials who claim to know what they are
talking about, declare that jack Brady
did not make confession to the effect
that he and Browning robbed the express
train near Sheep Camp, in Yoio county,
last October.
Notwithstanding the denials, however,
the account of the robbery credited az
having been related by Brady and pub
lished in the Associateo Press news COL
umns today may be depended upon. The
facts come from d high authority and re.
liable source.
i What is to De accomplished by setting
forth that Brady did not make the con-
fession is not apparent at this time, un-
less it is to give the officers .core time in
which to search for the treasure stolen
from the train.
There is general impression that the
money secured by Brady and Browning
and by them hidden under some bushes a
short distance from the railroad track
was found and carried away by tramps.
The place where the money was burle d
was the rendezvous of tramps and the
search for the coin brought to light
blankets, rubber coats and cooking uten-
sils which had been hidden by men of
that class.

WASHINGTON, July 30.-Attorney Gen.

holds in effect that the collector may take
an appeal whenever, in his judgment, tho

as a subordinate of the secretary of the

views. If the secretary is of the opinion
that an appeal should not be taken, the
committee is bound to dismiss it. The

imported currants. The board Of gen.
eral appraisers decided they should:h be ad-
mitted free and the com mmissioner of New

case arose in San Francisco, and the col
lector took an appeal on the ground that
they were dut;able at the rate of IL cents
