TRADE DOLLARS.
The demand for trade dollars continues In cxcess
Of the supply at San Francisco. and ta1es ARC
mado ut par, with prospect Of its being soon al a
premium. Laet Bprtng tho retail dealers Of San
Frnuclsco met IN masd- meetings and resolved not
10 take them at 90 cents on tho dollar. The trade
dollar contains 400 gratna OF silvcr while tho old
American dollar Of tho fathers contained only 41ah
grains. Tho trade dollar was manufactured 10 dis
place the Mexican dollar in the Oriental trade. lta
Increase In value IL attributed to scarcity on
rouut Of the growing demand, AMI to tho rtao III
HE price OF silver. Minister Seward writes to
Secretary Fish from China that there IL great dll
eulty In introducing tho trade dollar Into North
ern and Central China, whcrc not 600 OF the
new ao[ns have got Into circulation. In
soutbora Ch!na It has not, be says, displaced the
Mexican, OF found q market to any Crcat extent,
Rnd he doubts whether Il will ever coma into gen.
ernl use. The Mexican dollar, Introduced twenty
years ago, can DO found only ut some Of the ports
open to foreign trade. The London quotations for
silver bullion are for silver eleven-tweliths hnc
which is tho British standard; the American stand.

silver; and $50 grains Of the Dslttih standard ase
equal tot83. .88 grains OF the American standard.
The present American silver eo!nage, excepting tho
lralu dullnr, contains J85 gra!ns American stand-
ard. Adding to this, TINT tho trade dollar il not
