1t is suggested by the New York World
that the future OF the silver market may be
greatly affected by the British occupation OF
Cyprus and protectorate over Asiatic Tur-
kew. It will be desirable to have some one
coin for general use in the regions now to be
opened up In safety to the commerce of the
world, and for disbursement in payment OF
labor upon the railroad and other public
works that will be undertaken in Asia Minor,
Neither England nor any other country will
want to send gold into these newly opened
regions; the gold cannot be spared, and silver
will answer for all ordinary purposes. If,
therefore, the British government should
erect in Cyprus q mint for the coinage OF sill
yer, OH the same terms as in Bombay, open
to every owner OF silver, the rupee or other
silver coin so issued would have wide field
OF usefulness and would gradually supersede
the chaotic mass Of coinage now circulating
or boarded in Asatic Turkey. The add,
tionaI employment of silver thus furnished
would be at once relief to the civilized ma.
ffons now overburdened with silver, and q
great gain to the impoverished people among
whom it would circulate There can be LITTLE
doubt that the Anglo-Turkish treaty opens
ID to commerce what is equivalent to a new
continent. and all nations will derive some
benefit from III. But the most immediate
benefit that could accrue from that arrange
