trees which reached New York and
Philadelphia and other extensive mar
kets come from Maine, and are handled
"No other line of business in tho world can show so large a per
centage of success as that zinc production. Ninety per cent, of
the mines in operation in the Missouri-Kansas district are paying
properties a condition that does not exist in any other mining
camp in the world.
"The output of zinc and lead in Joplin, Missouri District this
year will be greater than that of the gold' production of Alaska."

by Monroe county men. It Is a poor
acre of fir land which will not yield
C,000 trees, and allowing $10 nn acre for
stumping,' $30 nn aero for labor nnd
cartago and $50 an acre for freight tho
trees do not cost 2 cents noleco de
livered In Boston or New York. The
price of the smallest tree In tho city Is
seldom If ever below 25 cents. Ascend
ing from that sumi to a maximum of
$5 so It may be readily seen that so
long as they can find customers the
men who handle Christmas trees are in
no danger of becoming roor.
Of late years tho Monroe county men,
however, have had decreased troflts.
Many of the trees shipped by Monroe
county men go to Philadelphia and for
tho past few years the market has been
overstocked, nnd carloads of trees went
for a song.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
New York, Oct. 7. Tho stock market
was much neglected today, tho yncht raco
proving tho greatest attraction. Prices
moved narrowly except In a few Indus
trials, and tho small room traders had
the market nil to themselves. They bid
up prices after tho opening In cxiicctn
tlon of a fuvorablo bank statement.
Prices declined when tho statement ap
peared, but there was no urgent liquid
ation nnd tho bidding up of Loulsvillo to
a point over last night steadied tho mar
ket. Tho closing was rather Irregular.
Attempts to still further depress Brook
lyn Transit met with resistance nnd tho
stock gains a point net. Changes gener
ally nro very small and mixed, but the
majority nro gains. Tho bank statement
fnllcd to show tho luigo relief as a re
sult of expenditures by visitors to thn
Dewey celebration which has been much
harped on by speculators nil tho week.
Not moro than a million dollars owing
to tho drain to tho Interior and to tho
sub-treasury enn bo detected from the
bank return. Tho reduction In tho le
serve requirement by I educing loans iX
500,000 was not sullleleiit to offset the loss
in cash nnd the surplus falls to $013,200.
Today's clearing Iioufo statement shows
tho sub-treasury a debtor to that Insti
tution for $2,921,390. Coupled with tho re
ceipt of gold by today's Incoming steam-
ers, this had tho effect of counteracting
to a slight extent the unfavorable bank
statement. Totnl sales, 1S9.100 shares.
