The American delegates to the Inter- national Monetary Convention will con suit with tho President on November 10th and sail from New York on the 18th. Many bipartisan papers predict that the conference will be productive of results that will enlarge the use of silver as currency. The recent rise in silver to S7i cents was due to the actual shortage in London brought about by the India Council holding their bills. This resulted in large shipments of sil- yer from New York to London seven weeks ago. The amount aggregated 2,000, 900 ounces of bullion. No such shipment had occurred from New York to London in two years time.
