WAITING TO COME IN.

Three Hundred Cars of Mexican Silver Ore For the United States.

El Paso, Tex., Aug. 28.--In the Mexican Central railroad yards in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, were more than three hundred car loads of silver lead ores, waiting for the new tariff bill to go into effect before transferring to the United States.

Many Mexican silver mines, running a high per cent. in lead, which closed down on account of the Windom ruling, will now open up again, and it is thought that another smelter will be erected here at an early date.
