RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED.

The following resolutions were
read and adopted by the San Antonio
Freight bureau, Thursday evening,
August 18th, at their meeting at the
Business Mems club.
Whereas, Mr.. Geo. III. Kalteyer, the
chairman of the board of directors Of
the San Antonio Freight bureau de-
parted this life in a distant city on
August 4, 1897, ana while we bow to
the will of the Creator, we deeply
regret that our fellow townsman and
co-worker was so suddenly cut off
from his usefulness among us. There
fore, be it resolved: That in the
death of Mr.. George II. Kalteyer,
this organization has lost a true and
valued member, the city one of its
pioneers, and society in general one
who contributed so much toward all
that was refined and elevating. To
his bereaved family we offer our sin
cere coincidence. Be it further re-
solved, that a page in our records be
set aside to his memory and that a
copy of these resolutions be given our
daily papers for publication and a
copy be sent to the family of deceas.

Denver, Col, Aug. 19.-In a letter

Omaha, of the Grant Smelter, says
regarding the continued fall in the
price Of silver:
''In my opinion the world can pro-
duce not to exceed 150,0OO,000 per an
mum at so cents per ounce. The an
nual absorption is greater than 150,-
100000 ounces, so that 80 cents should
be the bed rock price. In the immedi-
ate future. it may go below 80 cents
because smelters and others are Of
ering to sell millions of ounces at the
best prices obtainable thirty, sixty and
ninety days hence. This is done to get
rid of the present stocks with as lit
tie loss as possible. put 80 cents at
the bed rock because | believe the
world will continue to absorb the in
creasing amount of silver from year
to year and don't believe it is posi-
bic to maintain the present output at
80 cents"
