Failure Expected.

Pueblo, Colo, April IF. 3. F.
Rhodes, superintendent of the zinc
smelter of the American Smelling &
Refining company Of this city, said
upon being told of the failure of the
Lanyon company. that he had looked
for something of the sort among the
shelters of Kansas and Missouri. be-
cause of the fact that for the past year
they had been paying a greater price
for zinc ore. than smelter officials in
the west thought warranted by existing
circumstances.
Mr.. Rhodes did not think that the
receivership would do injury to the zinc
Industry in this state, but rather be-
heved that it would clarity the atmos-
phere, inasmuch as prices would be
more settled and the entire product of
Colorado mines would be diverted to
smelters in this section of the country
In the past large quantity of zinc
had been shipped to eastern smelters
from the Leadville district, which is
the largest reproducing camp in
Colorado.
Wide Variance in Price.
Mr.. Rhodes stated that he doubted
whether the Lanyon company controls
20 per cent of the zine output. as had
been alleged. He said that there had
been a wide variance in the price Of
zinc at St. Louis, the average for the
last ten years being 500 per hundred
pounds. but that the ore had recently
risen 70 S5-15 and then siumped to s465
At present the price is showing a rising
tendency, and the latest quotation is
S4.S5. He did not think the troubles of
the LanyOn company would have a
great effect in reducing this price. which
is for the bar metal. but thought il
would have a tendency to settle the ore
prices. because Of less cnrnnatitinn

Constantinople, April 1.-THE COM
