Lead vile seems encouraged over the adj
vance in the price OF lead. and through that
metal there is hope for small profits from the
ore production. The amount of iron in the ore
has more to do In the successful operations OF
many Leadvil'e mines than the price of silver.
The gold production OF the camp from a few
mines is enormous, and the estimates OF the
years output run as high as S6.OOO,OOO. The
new strike in tho Fanny Rawlings holds good
and the stuff now shipping carries two ounces

mcnt Company for a period Of thirty years.

and very little opposition materialized.
J. Edward Addicks of Delaware, however,
announced that he, too, would make q PROPOSE

every offer made, and will tomorrow hand it to
Mr.. Warwick and solicit bis immediate sp-
prevail. As Addicks uses exactly the same
words as Mr.. Dolan,. and oners nearly $1,000
90 per annum more for the lease, the perplexi.y
OF the Mayor Is apparent
No sooner was IL known that Addicks had
actually copied Dolan's ordinance. word for
word, except as to the several sums TO be paid,
than the word went out that the Bay state Gas
Company was in litigation. and such being the

Investigation shows that in December last the

paved the square left a fence around II so that
no teams could drive on the asphalt and the bi.
cyclists had it to themselves.
The square is large enough to contain a track
about 100 yards in circumference. and during

safe from teams. and no pedestrians dared 10
venture within the inclosurc.. A crowd leaned
