THOSE ENGLISH SILVER NOTES,

LONDON, Jan. 22.-Nothing has been pub
llshed here in regard to the report that the
Bank of England has recently been heavy
purchaser of silver bullion, and contem-
plating the issue of pound notes, redeem
able IN silver as soon as the necessary
authority could be obtained Careful in
quiries in financial circles this morning
resulted in showing that few had heard
the report, and they were incredulous as to
its accuracy. The chief financial authori-
ties expressed the opinion that the report
was wholly without foundation. In fact.
they asserted positively that the Bank of
England had made no such purchase of
bullion, and was not buying silver
now. Further than this, they de-
clared that purchases of silver were
not being made by any London
bank. With reference to the alleged in
tention Of the Bank of England to issue
pound notes, attention was drawn to the
fact that neither the Bank of England nor
any other bank could issue Lound notes
without special authority to that end by
act of parliament. 1t was considered
doubtful whether SO conservative an insti-
tuition as the Bank of England would be
making preparations for such radical de-
parture from its previous history before
definite authority had been secured. Silver
bullion is IS of a penny lower per ounce
to-day; The Bank of England rate of dis
count continues 6 per cent, as for some
time past.

English shipbuilders talk of founding
branches of their business in America,
these branches to be managed by Ameri-

the American ironclads. The idea is
merely suggested thus far, and may come
to nothing. 1t is proposed to form a
national federation of shipbuilders in order
