Indications that Settlements VIII
be on the I" spot" Basis.
Sal. Lake Tribune, January 9th ID is
not unlikely that before the expiration Of
another week the metal market will have
settled down to q uniform figure. and
that the price, or future" which is
now arbitrarily and fsrcically fixed BY
the house Of Handy L Harmon, will be
wiped from the face Of the earth. So lar
az local smelling men are concerned, II
ia ~undeniable that all the while they have
expressed q desire to see the ore-pro-
Queer get q better figure for his metals,
and il is known that at least one OF the
shelters has made it's settlements, with
the exception Of q single day, on what is
now known as the "spot' price OF silver.
To this . number Of producers who do
not desire the mention Of their names at
| this time, showed no unwilliDgness to
testify. And perhaps there are others
| who have done the same thing, but so
| far az the smelter arrangements are con-
| cerned any and all discussion is studi-
ously avoided. 1t is agreed. however,
| that something must be done, and some
| authority agreed on that will harmonic
| the interests Of the smelter and the pro-
| Queer Of the metals, or that serious harm
must result. The prediction was made
late in the afternoon by Q prominent
mining man that in 3 few days the smeit
ers would nnounc that in future all
settlements would be on the basis OF
spot o~uotations now sent out by the
Western Union. The matter, said he,
is certainly under serious consideration
Salt Lake Tribune, Jan. 18th /: Right
| in line with the Tribune's prediction the
| local smelters have resolved to do away
with the price of silver fixed by Handy
& Harmon, the representatives of the
| reiners, and are making their settle
ments on the figure sent out by the As
| sociated Press. This was admitted yes
| terday at the offices of the Germania, at
| those of the Hsnauer and at the head
quarters Of the Mingo, each OF which
made their settlements on a basis Of 573
| cents, while the figures sent out by Han
DIV & Harmon were 5638 cents an ounce.
| The practice, so far as the local smelters
and ore buyers are concerned. will con-
| tinue and will very likely prevail through
| out the country.
