"a New Pump suctiou.

Mic o. Leermo. Vice President Of the
Gold Hill Miners Union. yesterday re-
csived letters patent for an invention which
is destined to prove Of great value to the
mining companies Of the Comstocs. Mr..
Leermo's invention consists Of an impor-
tant and valuable Improvement upon the
pump suction. The first point ia that the
suction Ia made adjustable so that it may
DO swung from one portion Of the stump to
another. thus giving more advantages to
the men engaged In sinking the shaft. The
most Important item, however. 10 an ar
rangement by which the suction may
be lowered and raised independent
Of the pump column. Practical miners
will at . glance see the great advantage Of
such q continuance. The suction Is fur
nished at proper intervals with holes, with
which TO connect IL with the main pump
column. II IL Is found necessary 10 hoist
the suction while Q blast Is being put of.
the entire arrangement may DO raised by
means Of Q cable. the weight being incon-
siderable. As depth IL gained. the suction
may be readily lowered. thus obyiaiing the
necessity Of frequently moving the pump
column. which Is extremely heavy. The
connection holes on the suction are In.
geniously closed Is they are raised, and
much delay and work Is obviAted. Mr..
Leermo Is an old Comstock miner. and his
practical experience led 10 this invention.
The NEWS IL convinced Of Its utility, q
will be glad 10 see . fair test Of Its quali-
ties made by some Of u mining compa-
niaa

Md. for she sale Of silver saiiieu.


WASHINGTON. Oct. 30.-The Secretary OF
the Treasury to-day opened the bids for
supplying 400. 900 ounces Of fino silver. In
accordance with the notice recently given
inviting proposals every Wednesday for
that purpose. Tho bidders again requested
that their proposals DO withheld from pub
location. and II Ia now understood between
them and the Secretary that their offers
will not be made public. no matter whether
their bids are accepted or not. II 10 stated
ut the Department that the Government
secured all the silver needed at prices be-
low London quotations. Most Of the bids
accepted to-day were from New York. but
one or two from the Pacific Coast being
among those below London quotations.
The amount purchased, however. was less
than 100000 ounces, u tile price paid
ranged from one and Q quarter to q and
one half cents below the London rate. but
u Il claimed that the Government has an
abundant supply for present demands. All
bids at and above the London quotations
were rejected. The bids were not opened
until 3 o'clock In the afternoon. and all Of
them were by telegraph. a. dealers will not
forward their bids until they receive the
London quotations. They say that tho
refusal 10 publish the bids defeats the es.
t~ablishment OF Q silver market In this
country. II IL Is not known what bullion
holders are willing to sell for, there can Of
course DO no market for silver. Taking
these rates As tho standard. this leaves
other purchasers Of all bullion In the same
position in which they previously Stood
that OF having to buy silver ct the London
rate. 1t 10 thought that before long the
Injunction OF secresy will be removed aud
that the United States, which produces
moro silver than all the other countries
combined. will no longer be dependent
on foreign markets for ib prices, but will.
on the other hand, buy and sell independ-
entity. II having been stated that bullion
holders were going 10 get up . combination
to keep up the price Of silver. the Mint
Bureau is preparing 10 oppose any such
attempt.
