OF the tunnel is in 800 feet and for
a ways we drifted on the lead hut a
twist in the lead left us off the

and honest judgment that inside Of

up that we will have no trouble what

This was the answer made by Dam

''Our smelters are running to their

Mr.. Guggenheim was asked about
the price OF lead. He was unwilling
to predict the immediate future Of

was to the interests of lead produc-
