The San Francisco Geary street railroad election looms as bonds of 700000 are voted to buy and operate the line publicly.

Nevada lead mining talks in New York set a anticipated price of 3 dollars and 50 cents per hundred pounds with the Coeur d Alenes tunnel described as a major engineering feat. The American Smelting and Refining Company is noted as controlling a large share of U.S. lead production and seeking further alliances with manufacturers.
