SHIPMENTS OF SILVER.
They Are Much Larger Since tho
Passage OF tho BIN.

New YORK, July 29--An evening
paper says; The large shipments OF
silver bullion to London in the past few
days has given rise to much comment
because it had been predicted that as
soon as the silver bill passed this coun-
try would be flooded with the silver Of
foreign countries. The actual
fact has been precisely the re-
verse. The head OF u leading
bullion brokerage house in this city
said to-day that there had been great
deal of talk relative to the causes OF the
present movement OF silver to England.
The truth of the matter is just this"
he said, every summer England de-
mands large amount of silver to be
sent to India TO pay for wheat and cot
ton. The demand usually comes in
August or September. This year IL has
come earlier, presumably owing to the
fact that after August l3 the govern.
ment will begin to buy 100000 ounces
the new silver bill. The public only
hears OF that part OF the silver which
goes abroad; furthermore, much Is
bought for shipment which is not
shipped for some weeks aiterward. Our
own house holds large amount bought
in this way to be shipped later. When
the silver bill becomes u law We shall see
countries lighting Tor silver, and the re.
suit Will be that the price Will be ad-
vanced. The silver bill may eventually
result in an increased production of
silver by working mines which have not
hitherto been profitable

fun sway Throughout the state. The
weather was favorable to late spring

The fall wheat is reported to have "a
fine, large, plump berry. As little

yield can not be given. One report from
Washington county says: "One field Of
sixty acres has been cut and threshed,

acre"
