CURRENCY AT A PREMIU VI.
Philadelphia Experiencing a De-
cided Stringency.

Philadelphia Experiencing a De-
cided Stringency.
PHILADELPHIA, June 29.-Six per
cent was the rate for all demand loans
here today, and, owing to the scarcity
of New York exchange, drafts on that
city commanded slight premium.
Currency was also in great demand and
in some cases small premium was
paid. The president of one of the lead
ing banks here was questioned this aft
ernoon regarding the published state
meut that Philadelphia banks were
debtors to New York banks to a large
amount, which they are unable to remit
OH account of their inability to procure
New York exchange or currency.
There is nothing to say about II" he
replied. "Our bank is not in the swim.
We don't owe New York one cert, but
there is no doubt but that the lnforma-
ton is true in the case of some of the
banks. 1t is just question of how long
the present stringency is going to con-
tinue. The trouble is that the banks
cannot get the currency. We have to-
day three large pay rolls to meet, but
we have the currency here to do it
with; but how long it will last nobody
can tell. If the people, instead of
bringing their currency here. lock it up
in tin boxes, the supply will soon run
out There is no doubt that some of the
banks have offered pretty good money
for exchange, bat think 1t is not good
policy to agitate the question in the
newspapers. 1t is only calculated to
make matters worse. | believe, though,
that things will be better after the 4th,
when the dividend and interest pay
ments put a lot OF new money into cir
culation. People will scare very fool
ishly, and the banks have to make the
best of il.

EFFECT IN INDIA.
Prices Not Expected to Be Ma
terially Altered.

LONDON, June 29.-Further inquiries
were made in the house of commons to-
day regarding the effects of the action
of the Indian government in stopping
the free coinage of silver. In response
&. E. Russell, parliamentary secretary
of the India office, said that neither the
government of India nor the Hershell
committee expected prices in India to
be materially altered under the new
currency arrangements. Rt. Hon.
George j. Goschen, who was
chancellor of the excnequer in the
last cabinet of Lord Salisbury,
asked whether the Herschell committee
and the government had been prepared
for the great fall that had already oc-
Cured in the price of silver. Would
not, he inquired, the fall modify the
views of the government and the COM
mittee? Mr.. Russell said he could not
answer for the committee. With re-
gard to the government, he would leave
Mr. Goschen to form his own opinion.
Mr.. Gladstone said that the government
had the impression that there was no
likelihood of any serious fall in the
value or produce in India. In case such
fall should occur he would readily
state the views of the government.

WILL STOP MINING.
Mine Owners in Colorado Resolve
to suspend Operations.

10 BUS pGnu operations.
DENVER, Col, June 29.-Silver min
ing and smelling in Colorado will cease.
This decision was reached at a meeting
of all the leading mine owners and man.
ayers of the state held at the Brown
Palace hotel this afternoon. The mines
cannot be operated at the present price,
and to stop further loss all operations
will come to a standstill and 25.000-to
10000 men be thrown out of employ
ment. There was large attendance
at the meeting. 1t was resolved that
it was the unanimous sense of
this meeting ''that we put a
stop to our further losses by an imme-
diate and complete cessation of all our
silver mining, milling and smelling
operations in the state of Colorado in
the belief that the monometallist ele-
ment will finally appreciate three vital
points, l. that the world cannot transact
its business without the use of silver as
money: 2, that the actual cost and value
of the metal far exceeds the incorrect
views which they have entertained; 3,
that the inevitable course of events Will
quickly demonstrate that the enormous
sums of money invested in railways,
loans aud other property will SO depre
ciate in value that the monometallists
will also be convinced that some action
must be taken with silver to restore it
to its legitimate use which it has held
from time immemorial."
The great drop in the price of siivr
has resulted in depreciation in tie
prices of mining stocks such as was
never before witnessed. Mollie Gibson
stock which was couple OF months ago
selling at S7.75 per share, closed
yesterday at S., slumped today to s1.55,
and was selling at that figure in the
East this afternoon, with prospect of
sinking to 81 or less. The business of
mining is practically at standstill,
only gold stocks being traded in. There
is absolutely no market for silver stocks
at any price nor will there be until
there is change in the aspect of the
silver market.

BACKED BY UNCLE SAM.
Purchasing Power of the Silver
Dollar AS Great as Ever.

Dollar as Great as Ever.
WASHINGTON, June 29.-Secretary
Carlisle received today numerous call
ers, among whom were many members
of congress. With all of these the silver
question formed the principal topic of
consideration, and the continued decline
OF the price of silver was naturally al
luded to. He also received a cablegram
stating that the price of silver was to-
day in London 6S12 cents per ounce, at
which rate the silver dollar as
bullion was worth SO cents. Never
thelesS the point was of course
apparent that the, purchasing power
of the silver dollar, with silver bullion
at $50 cents per ounce, WAS as great to-
day as it was when silver was worth
81. 90 per ounce and the bullion value of
the silver dollar was SO cents. 1t should
be equally obvious that this is SO be-
cause it is known that the credit of the
United States is behind its silver money
as it is behind all of its other forms of
money and without which none of them,
except gold coin and gold certificates,
would be worth their par value in the
money markets of the world. This fact
was several times emphasized at the
last session of congress when eX-Secre-
tary Sherman and others repeatedly
declared during the senate that there
was in the treasury the bullion gold
value of every silver certificate issued
by the government.

WILL STILL TAKE SILVER.
Senator Teller Discusses on the
Indian Situa ton.

ScuaLOE DISCOuSoS Oh thO
Indian Situa ton.
DENVER, June Ex-senator Henry NJ.
Teller this morning said: "rhe action
of the government of India ought not
to have. depressed silver to the extent
that it seems to have done, and l think
that the fall in silver has resulted
largely from Misrepresentation on the
part of the people of the East as to
what actiO n the Indian government
will take. i noticed in the papers
of Tuesday that Mr.. Leech and Mr..
Cannon are reported as saying that
India will cease TO take silver. he fact
is. if the minis are closed to private
coinage, it is the intention of the Indian
government to purchase silver and coin
it on account of the government in the
same manner, practically, as we coined
under the Bland act, and there is no
reason to suppose India will not take as
much silver III the next year as 1t took In
the last. Many friends of silver believe
that it will enable the India council
to sell It's council bills at stipulated
and fixed price and thus preclude the
tluctuatIon of silver. Now If council
bills are to be sold, as the press repre-
Sentatives say the scheme is, at Is I'D per
rupee, which is more than they nave
been selling at heretofore for some
time. it ought to make all silver not
only more stable, but higher than it has
been for the last ten days. There is no
possibility of India having gold stand
ard with gold as the circulating
medium. 1t is impossible for
them to do that. The British
government has twice tried that,
and it has failed. The statement made
in the public press that they propose to
give gold standard without gold cur
rency means that they propose to take
the rupee on gold basis as to its value
considered as bullion; in other words,
they would take the rupee, instead OF at
Al cents, its mint value, at 80 cents,
which would be about its gola value.
do not consider the action of the In
dian government as alarming as the
alarmist people seem to think it is, nor
dc believe that it will aid in the re-
peal of the Sherman bill"
