for some unheard of reason lie fuels feels that lio lie is personally aggrieved it must call him back to the points of the discussion provoked by him in ili hii q first letter in which lie he says there is not lot 1 a ton n ry sp in iii na has noth A adita di treatment ait char cliar gep amrom C tu to 5 per io tau aldu r in ing this period answering that statement I 1 cited his bid as allow ing ICY that lie asked from 3 50 to sr isa a ton inore for treatment charges than tic lie did before iti the e passage of the mckinley McKin lcy bill and I 1 his absolute allo lute contract in which the char charges chares 0 es for reduction are arc is 10 lo per tun ton more on oil our average ore than were charged during the period immediately proceeding prece erling the passage of the mckinley law his 11 bid aid for 1000 tons per month for the year 1891 1801 was quoted only to show tile disposition of that zo gentleman as to what lie would take if lie he could what ahat I 1 specially directed INI mr Han auers attention to was tile the contract made anad by tile the bullion beck mining company 1 with him in in i which the charges were 3 ia per ton more than before the passage of the mckinley law what lie must do to recon reconcile cile this fact dutli his unsupported assertion that there lias has not been a ton of lead ore told bold in ill this market that has not halt its treatment charges lowered from 3 to 3 5 per ton toil i to bhoj that the fl figures ures of his bis contract are not true mr Ifa hanauer 6 contract com tract contradicts mr ila bauers statement mr hanauer takino taking entirely new ground now says 1 I my ly coli contention was ivas anil and is ii as to the selling price 01 ores today that is ie bogli bot I 1 unfair and untrue his contention was that there is not a ton of lead ore sold in this market that lias has not had its treatment charges 1 lowered 0 w cred fro from m ia 3 I 1 to 0 5 11 what hat his position pui tion is today or may lie tomorrow IS is a matter of neither public nor private concern for tho the very simple reason that no one can call possibly tell what furt further lier pitfalls his party zeal and anxiety for a controversy may lure him hill into the gentleman alo al o declares nor is it to the point to bring forward contracts made months ago this because lie cannot meet the figures of the contract conti ct I 1 quoted and then with an incon inconsistency sis tency almost childish clil dish lie proceeds to make deductions advantageous P to himself by quoting za tile the 11 figures 0 ures of a contract made by 1 him it 1 in february of 1891 or twelve months further fu riller back than his last la t contract coul quoted ba b in me and to IV which aich lie objects object 3 it will bs be observed that lie faithfully avoids all references to tile the reduction in frei plit lit rates tie ile quote the sale of f ores hoin the yosemite Yosei nite nine mine sinco since M may ay or of aliis year the crescent figures 0 are arc of this year and lie shows a reduction in treatment charges on oil ores of tile the utah mine that has taken place since july of this year what hat has that to do with the prices before and after the me kinley law ilow how does that help mr ila mauer I 1 said that the alie effect of the mckinley bill had a loss of to tile the bullion deck beck 11 mining ining coni company pa n I 1 mr hanauer contradicted this and averre averred tl that the charges fur for ore treatment had decreased since hince the mckinley McKi uley hill bill had gone into effect and t that hat I 1 willfully inie misstated stated the facts acts I 1 made my compares com comparison paris on of treatment charges between and 1892 mr hanauer II anam nowhere compares pre present ent prices with tho those thoc c of 1890 1690 lie ile speaks of prices in ill 1891 and in this year how do these aft hect the mckinley McKin lcy bill grant that prices are lov lower er today to day clay than in july of this yar wherein is it demonstrated thereby that the ill mckinley bill has brought n about tile alie reduction red action it would simply imply S show that prices have been both hili high and low ion u under the operation of th that at bill and not that prices loricks have not been increased under it mr dilall auer is is a man of intelligence and bu business lilcik ability and the fact that ila has failed to coo compare pare prices of ore in ill utah in 1890 1800 with those of 1892 is a 1 direct admission that lie he took it for granted L that his simple and insl unsupported ip ported statement would settie tiie the dispute but lie was mistaken 11 is and being mistaken lie lias has added neither to t the prestige it nor I 1 to 0 his reputation for intelligence by bv the gauzy method in which lie he ill in attempting to escape the folli ot of rushi rushing ig personally into a fray against an all appon opponent ent to whom lie he had given iven liis his only armor his contracts tracts s granted that anino owners do get better belter prices today for their ores than thail thuy did sonic onto month aco ago what does that signify Z nafy simply that w wlben it all tile the moinet mines rih a hey had ores to sell and the sui elters through combines fixel fixed prices to suit themselves but the mckinley bill and the low lov price of silver t together 0 geaber with the increased reduction charges charge had the effect of crippling pling air industry that is one oi of mail of our prosperity not even the savings of miggo a ton in freight 1 charges could keep keel the mine mine open tile the result was of course a scarcity of ore and the shelters smelters shelters smelters sm elters elters no lon longer er able to dictate prices suddenly discover that they can still make a profit after giving to tile miner what they have hitherto taken from froin liim him because miners had to sell at the figures offered or cloe down their properties and throw thousands of men out of work ta the ic case against c mr llan hancuch cuer still holds good when lie he wins it will he be when lie iio proves that there is not a ton of lead ore sold in this market that has not had its treatment cliar charges es lowered from 3 to 5 per ton ton and when lie proves this he will prove that his written contracts are not contracts at ill all jt it must be under understood that I 1 lid did not challenge 0 mr hanauer IIa to aty discussion lind and lie can call thank himself for the unfortunate position into which lie has thrust himself on liia his latter calculations lie lias
