The geological survey, in prelim.
inary statement issued recently, esti-
mated the total production of lead in
the United States in 1902 at 268,000
short tons against 270.7O0 tons in 1901.
The lead contents of ores smelted by
the works in the various states fol-
low:
Colorado. 1888 short tons; Idaho,

New Mexico, TAI; Nevada. 1863: Ari-

ton, 1457; Oregon. Alaska, South Da-
kota, Texas, Kentucky. 2214; Kansas,

426.
The difference between this and the
estimated production represents the
foreign ores smelted in this country.
The total production of refined lead by
the desilverizers follows:
Total refined lead. 298.010 short
tons; foreign base bullion, 95,459; for

Non refined in bond, 1868 short tons
were exported, as were also exported
