VIII Have to Hurry silver Purchases.

WAsHINGTOS, d. c.. July 12.-lt LOOKS
very much as IL the Treasury OF the United
States would be compelled 70 do some
active work In order 70 carry out the pro-
visions OF the Sherman law, which requires
the purchase Of 100000 ounces OF silver
every month. July is now almost nall
gone. aud still the Treasury has purchased
only fraction more than 10 per cent OF the
amount prescribed, their purchases
amounting In ounces TO TSe,OOO. The price
maid when the June purchases were com
pleted was .s220 per ounce. July Z, follow
ing .21S. 900 ounces were offered, and only
1O0. 600 ounces were taken a. 1900.
The next day ., 900 ounces offered oy tel- tel
egraph at 1920 were accepted. The lOO:OOO
ounces purchased Monday at .7l5O complete
the purchases 50 far made this month. Inc
director OF the mint to-day made counter
nroposition on 3Oj.000 ounces offered az
prices ranging from 1900 10 1850 In which
he agreed 70 take silver at .7l5O. THIS may
be accepted before the end OF the calendar
dav, n so il will not figure in the result TO-
morrow. even il this offer be accepted, the
total purchase will amount 10 a fraction
less than 25 per cent OF the total required
for the month.

The New York banks are treating

S Co. $4,000 Dances on the steamship
Augusta Victoria sailing for Europe
tomorrow. Vesslage, Colgate & Co,
sent out $4,000 ounces on the Majestic
to-day.
Regarding the silver question in the
West, the president OF a prominent
downtown bank received the following
letter to-day from the head OF leading
mercantile house in Denver which has
dealings throughout the silver States:
"In regard to silver mining in this
State, will say that we candldly believe
the present situation has been very
much exaggerated, and that as soon as
there is any prospect for obtaining a
definite price for silver great many OF
our mines will be operated on as large a
scale as formerly. This we say on the
supposition that the present price OF
silver, say seventy-fve cents per ounce,
is a reasonable price, as silver costs
very nearly this figure to produce.
THE talk aud threats INDUCED In by
few rabid slyerites is, in our opinion,
taken too seriously in the East, as par
ties who do most OF this talking have
no credit or standing az home, and we
do not see any reason why they should
be believed abroad"

AN IMPORTANT RULING BY SATOLLL
He RsvOkes the Order Issued DJ 'he
Bishop of Denver Concerning the schooi
Question.

He Revokes the Order Issued by the
Bishop of Denver Concerning the school
Question.
DENVER. Colo, July 12-An Associated
Press representative learned to-day that
Rev T. II Malone, editor Of the Colorado
Catholic, had in his possession very I'M
nortant decision of Mgr. Satolll on tue
School question When asked about the
matter Father Malone replied That IL was
true.
The facts are as follows;
ON the 2Sth Of August, 1891, Blshop
Matt issued the following order;
"Be il understood 5y all the falthIul
both of the clergy and laity, that 1or tue
fuUure no children Will be received Ior Arst
communion and confirmation VINO nave not
for at least two years previous oeen aIVeuu-
ing the parish school or some other Cstlo'
lie school, and we reserve ourselves S tne
rightto Judge whether the reasons are SUI
ficiently grave in certain cases TO allow an
exception TO this regulation"
This law has never been withdrawn oy
Rlshop MatZ. who has strenuously opposed
the school policy OF Archbishop lrelanu'
II is claimed by the opponents OF Arcu-
nishop Ireland and Archbishop Sa-
tolli that in view Of the late
letter of the Pope on the school question
the Bishop Of dl0cesel Is Tue Sole JUICY "o
to the lawfulness or unlawfulness OF Cath'
lie children attending the public schools =,
In view of this contention the letter OF
Mgr. Satolli may prove Of far-reaching I'M
mort, The import of the letter is this;
Archbishop Satolli, on learning OF tne
existence OF Bishop Matz's DEGREES, wrote
10 him strongly disappearing 1t. Blsnop
Matt replied that ne had entirely modlnea
his instructions. Therei is no public record,
however, of the law having been modlheo
or abrogated. r.,,,o
Mgr. Satoll's instructions to tatner Ma
lone are that the law which be character
izes as a harsh and injurious measure Is 10
be ignored and further that greater care
and charity are 20 be exercised IN giving
religious instructions and administering
the sacrament TO the children who DO not
attend the parochial schools.
Father Malone is empowered 70 an
pouuce the abrogation of the law laid down
bv Bishop Matz. The decision is COM
pietely in line with the contentious OF the
COLORADO Catholic, and is looked upon, here
AS a great victory for Archbishop Ireland,
whose policy Bishop Matz said ne would
see his right hand withered before he
would adopt it In the diocese Of Denver.
