This Price Established fer b Ne
maisaer or Year.
The rule OF the American Smelling
and Refining Company providing that
the settling price for lead for each
succeeding week should be the average
Of sales for the preceding week was
abolished on the first OF this month";
and an agreement was entered into
between the Trust and the ore pro-
ducers whereby the settling price Tor
that metal is fixed at s4.00 for the re-
mainder OF the year, no matter what
the price may be on the market. The
Salt Lake Tribune gives the following
particulars Of the transaction:
In the metal market yesterday the
week opened with the settling price OF
lead at "a per hundred pounds, not
withstanding the TACT that during the
previous one on the New York ex-
change the average, that under the
rule adopted last December, was to
determine the price Of the metal dur
ing the week following. was steady at
a 25. That, under this oft-prepested
rule, voluntarily prescribed by the
American Smelling and Refining Com
pany, the pegs were not advanced and
the settling price fixed at s4.25 in con-
formity with the rule was q puzzle to
not q few, and an investigation was
begun. This developed that the old
rule had been abolished on August l.
and that il had been replaced by an
agreement between the American
Smelling and Refining Company and
the producers of Utah, whereby the
latter is to receive the balance Of the
year "a per hundred pounds, no
matter about the fluctuations in the
lead market during the period en-
braced in the agreement. The metal
may advance to IS per hundred or j,
may recede to So in the open mar
ket, but until January l next the
lead producer will receive "a for his
output.
This is the story OF the agreement
to which the producers who were in
Iterviewed reluctantly confessed, and
while Hon. T. r. Jones, district
manager for the American Smelling
and Refining Company, pleaded tina
both sides had pledged themselves tC
silence, he finally verified the news
EYES," he said, "under an agree
ment TO which practically all tbs
producers have subscribed, they ar,
TO receive 81 during the remainder o
the year for lead. Indeed, the agree
ment took effect on August /, and /
under the law Of supply and demand
There are any disappointments an,
Head should 70 below that figure. it j
q loss the American Smelling snt
Refining Company, and not the pro
Queer, must suffer. The figure wa
not agreed to until both sides ha,
consulted the record and 81 per hun
dred pounds was looked upon as
fair figure"
At all events neither side is explt-
ing over il, for there have been som
very wild fluctuations in previou
years during the period covered by tn,
J agreement. The producers general,
view it as a reasonable medium be
tween the extremes, and Manage
Jones says il remains to be seel
whether or not there Is money in /
for the smelling company. However
the man who raises lead in the Stat
knows under the agreement on jus
what he may rely for his crop the re
mainder OF 1900.

said he would not permit unseemy haste in the
trial.
There is craving for notoriety the part of
the Assistant District Attorneys in this case said
Mr.. Levy, "and that appears to be the only reason
why 1t is pushed with such unseemly vigor."
Assistant District Attorney Mcintyre entered the
courtroom and told Judge Cowng that the People
would be ready to go ahead with the trial Mon
day. Mr.. Levy again asserted that unseemy and
uncalled for haste being shown, and said
that the newspapers had practically tried the de-
fendant and that the case appeared to be already
settled Judge Cowing retorted that the newspapers
had tried one and said he would listen to Mr.
Levy Friday, If he then had any good reason to
Mr.. Mcintyre again said he wanted until Monday

day. but Judge Cowing made answer.
