Silver Will Go Lower, One M. p. Predicting
that IL Will Fall to cod.
LONDON, juno 29.-Several members of
Parliament who speak with authority on
money questions were interviewed, this
evening. concerning the probable effect of
lndia's new attitude towards silver. Sir
William Honldsworth. the moving spirit
in the Bimetallic League. said that India's
action In closing her mints to the free coin.
age of silver would steady exchaa We. and
thus relieve of much difficulty the trade
between Lancashire and the Indian ports.
On the other hand Lancashire trade with
countries having the silver standard would
be injured seriously. The position of India
would eventually become SO difficult that
she would be obliged to adopt blmetallism.
In reply TO a question concerning the i'm.
mediate future OF the bullion market SIR
William said: "lndia's action will produce
q great tigh tness of gold. which will cause
further fall Of silver. but to what extent
l cannot say"
William Cane who has travelled much in
India and has written book concerning
the country and it's people. said be was In
clined TO think the direct effect of the
Indian governments action would be small
in India, as prices there were fixed mostly
by custom. Unless q panic should come.
the majority of the natives would never
know there had been o change.
Samuel Smith. who is regarded as an
authority In most Indian affairs. said that
the price of silver probably would drop to
20 pence per ounce.
Samuel Montague head of tho firm of
Samuel M0Dtague& Co.. foreign bankers. is
more optimistic than Mr.. Smith. lie thinks
silver will hardly fall below so pence
He could not see how 1t was possi-
bic for the Indian government to do
otherwise than it had done. The silver
market would recover slowly and touch a
considerably higher point than the one at
which it now stood.
Sir Richard Temple, Ex-Governor OF Bom-
bay, said that the Indian pam Was all
| wrong economically. The gold stanAard
ought to have been introduced in india
twenty-five years ago. However. the pres
| ept experiment would prove harmless.

Treason in Costa Rica.

A conspiracy to bring about revolution vas
discovered in Costa Rica on March 81, and was
suppressed through the energetic and cautious
action of the Government. 1t appears that the
conspirators plotted to make an attack upon
the Cuartel or quarters where the military
stores in charge of tho Quartermaster General
wero deposited, and with the arms and ammu-
milton found there equip the enemies of the
Government and inaugurate general revolu-
ton.
The leader in the conspiracy was Gutierrez,
who recently returned from exile to which he
had been condemned on account of previous
revolt against the Government
The authorities. being fully aware of the In
tentions of the rebels, determined to allow the
latter to proceed with their plans and capture
them in the act of treason. The Government
was completely successful. In order to pre-
vent any further disturbance, the country
was placed under martial law.
