4 STRONG MARKET.

L"ndoners Purchasing stocks on Acoou n
 of the Signing of the Silver BILL
 LONDON, July 16.-The signing of the Silver bill by President Harrison, al- though 1t was looked upon as @ fore gone conclusion, had a very stimulating effect upon prices on the Stock Ex- change.
 Bar silver was of course the first to feel the influence of the Presidents confirmation of the silver legislation of Congress, and at once rose to Afty pence an ounce, 8 selling price it has not attained for several years.
 American securities also took on @ degree of sympathetic activity, and increased orders to buy were cabled to New York. The increase in the price of silver is by no means to be regarded as permanent, however. The practical effect of she new American Silver law has been. pretty thoroughly discounted, and the opinion is general that the present activity in silver bullion will not continue long, and that the price will gradually recede to point little If any above the figures which have ruled for the last year.
