HIDES, TALLOW, WOOL AND HOPS. HIDES AND SKINS—The circular of W. B. Sumper & Co. says: “Hides and Leather continue very quiet, and prices show a downward tendency, with but little activity in general business. Wet salted Hides have gradually declined during the past month, and prices are somewhat lower than those which we gave in our last circular. The prices, however, which we quote are relatively higher than the values obtainaie by shipments to the East. The prospects of the Leather market are not encouraging, and the tanners are not inclined o buy freely, even when liberal concessions are made in price and weight. The dry Hide market is virtually at a standstill.” Little or nothing can be done on shipments of dry_flints to the kast, and it is somewhat doubtful If ‘the prices which we quote can be sustained. The connection between the Hide and Leather market of California and that of the Iast fs very close. and prices in this market, therefore, must be governed entirety on ihe valu which are obtainable in the Kastern cities. Dry Kips are very weak and rule at lower [prices than dry Hides. Wool and Sheepskins continue very aull, and these goods are not sold unless the prices are based on low vaines. Tallow is weaker, with a decline of %m ? Deerskins are nominal, the market for this class of stock being in foreign skins. as the California_skins are neglected under the present law. The poorer grades of Deerskins are very quiet, and the thin long-haired Alaskis are sold only at very low figures. The prospects of the Hide and Leather trade are not at ail en- couraging for_ the- balance uf the year, and we can- not offer any encouragement to Hide dealersor butchers for better values for the immediate pres- est. TU is presumed, however, that there will be some activity and a more liberal market after thie close of the year. f r ? & Heavy saited steers are quotable at.7c B.1; culls and brands, 6c; medium tc; ¢ulls and brands, mouth of drift run north irom opening com- menced at point 185 feet in from mouth of south drift on ninth floor are timbering and enlarging opening and will work upward on ore streak, | which is 3 feet wide, assaying $30 to $40 per ton.
