More Ahout silver

NEW YORK. July 11th.-The EUeniaq Post
figures out the silver situation as follows
If the present silver bill becomes law the
point where the Secretary of the Treasury
would stop buying silver bullion would be
1923. which corresponds with 81 21
grains of silver in the dollar. There is
margin of about % points of possible ad-
vance from the present prices in the case of
buying by the Treasury which would ab-
sorb the present supply of about nine
million or ten million ounces OF silver
within the next three months. It is to be
presumed, however, that even half as much
advance would draw in silver from else
where, and by increasing the supply would
hold the price in check.
