Some Zinc Talk.

Rumor has persistently asserted o
late that there was a movement on
foot backed by the smelters, to en-
courage the development of the Ar
kansas zinc country. The following
from the Kansas City Starts the latest
guess as to the ways and means to be
employed:
"rhe Rock efellers, by the Lanyon
Zinc company, an auxiliary, have un-
dertaken to break the combine of the
zinc ore producers of the Missouri and
Kansas district, and to that end will
furnish capital to develop the north
ern Arkansas district.
1.-The smelters supplied by the Mis-
souri, and Kansas district consume
about 14,O0O tons of ore a month, val
ued at present prices at over S6OO0,0OO,
a cost that would be reduced to 3 mill
lion dollars, or even less, if the COM
bine of the ore producers was broken.
"The Standard Oil company and
the Palmer Oil company own the Lam
yon Zinc company, the great New
Jersey trust which organized some
months ago and bougAt the zinc smell
ters and natural gas fields of Robert
Lanyon d Sons in Kansas. The Lam
yOn Zinc company has a capital of five
million dollars, and in addition is
backed by the combined capital ofthe
ROckefellers and their associates, and
when it becomes evident that the ore
producers association had come to
stay the smelters trust began to cast
about for u way to defeat its purpose,
and one means adopted is to encour-
age the development of the zinc de-
posits of Northern Arkansas.
"The zinc industry of northern Ar
kansas has languished on account of
the lnaccessibility of the country and
the consequence lack of a market for
the ore. The nearest railroad is
about 100 miles from the mines which
renders transportation by that means
impractica BILE, and although at least
six surveys have been made the
roads will not be built until the peo-
plo develop more ground and put suf.
ficient ore on top to warrant the cost
of construction. This has been the
situation for many years. The only
means of transportation the people
have had is White river, but this, too
is distant from the mines from ten to
fifty miles, and is of little value to
small producers
1t is supposed that tbs smelters will
advance $50 per ton on all the ore
mined in the Arkansas district, the
remainder of the price when the ore
is delivered. In this way operations
could be carried on at once on pay
ing basis and visible supply there
fore obtained which would induce a
railroad to build line and the smell
ters would get their money back in
the reduced price to be paid of jack
which would be sure to follow the
opening of the Arkansas country.
How much truth there is in the rumOr
is mathematical problem of too
great proportions to tackle in such
weather as this

FLAMES CAUSE RUIN.
Memphis, Tenn, Suffers by a Costly
Fire - His toric HO-
tel Burned.

Memphis, Tenn, July "a fire broke
out in the establishment of the Men,
phis Paper company, at the corner of
Gayoso and Front streets, late Tuesday
afternoon, and before it was subdued
had caused the loss of one life, the fatal
injury of ex-Fire Chief Cleary and the
serious injury of Assistant Fire Chief
James Ryan, besides property loss of
about $45o,ooo. The Gayoso hotel, one
of the oldest landmarks of Memphis,
was on of the buildings totally de-
stroyed, and while the guests were all
rescued in safety some of them lost
valuable effects in the fire, which ragged
iercely for over six hours.
The Gayoso hotel was established in
1912, and has been the scene of many
historic events. It was the headquar-
ters of Gen. Grant during his brief stay
in Memphis, before the fight at Vicks-
burg. Gen. Sherman also esta blished
his headquarters there for time and
Gen. .Hurlburt narrowly escaped capture
by Forest in the same building. During
Forests siege of Hurlburt in the hotel
one of the confederate cavalry leaders
rode into the rotunda of the hotel and
shot federal officer dead. The hotel
has changed hands many times and
been threatened by fire at least half a
dozen times. the narrowest escape be-
ing during the Menken fire a few
months ago, when the Gayoso ignited
and was only saved after heroic effort
by the fire department.
