Lead Supply and Demand.

New uses have been found for lead.
One of the most important is that of
constructing storage batteries for all
motor carriages run by the motor car
riage system: that each motor carriage
carries on an average of 300 pounds of
lead. The construction OF underground
conduits for the use of telegraphic,
telephone and other companies has
caused large absorption OF this metal
and will continue to do so. AS cities
and towns increase in business and
Importance the demand will increase
as it is metal for which it is not easy
to find a pr acticable substitute. Bat
while these new avenues for the con-
sumption of lead are being opened and
the absorbing power of this country
and OF the world is steadily increas-
ing, there has been but little increase
in the output OF lead products. Nor
is there likely to be much of an in
crease. Silver mines carrying lead
which were closed down on account OF
the low price OF silver are not likely to
be opened up to disturbing extent OF
the market unless there should be a
sudden rise in The value Of silver bull
icp, which Is not likely Ex.

A contemporary remarks that some
fear is felt that the world 5 production
of quicksilver will prove unequal to
the growing demand. The total supply
in 1899 was about 50, 200 TASKS from
Spain, Italy, Austria and California
This was less than for quite number
of years, with the exception of two.
The production of the cinnabar mines
of California, the only large producers
on this continent, has declined from
rs, 900 TASKS in 1893, to only %, 100 in
1899. The principal mines of Spain,
Austria and Russia are playing out.
Increased supplies OF quick liver
may come from New South Wales,
where cinnabar ore is said to be
plentiful.

The inactivity in mining matters in
this district at the present does not, in
our opinion, forecast a continued per-
iod of depression. On the contrary,
rays of hope are now visible in the
sky as number of deals are pending
which will have an important bearing
upon the future mining operations in
this section, and if consummated will
give large number of men constant
employment. 1t is always darkest be-
fore dawn, and let US hope that this
will prove the case in this instant.
