EFTECT THE REPEAL.
1t Stops the Purchase OF Silver Except
for Snds id iarv Cnip

1or SUBSIDIARY Coin.
The repeal of the purchase clause Of the
Sherman act, which went into effect by the
signature oi the President, puts a stop to the
further use of silver in the way of increas
ing the currency of the country, excepting
as subsidiary coin. The portion not repealed
of the Sherman law leaves it discretionary
with the Secretary OF the Treasury to coin
all the silver bullion now in the Treasury.
II is the expection that all this bullion
will be coined as soon as possible. Secretary
Carlisle has already given orders to begin
coming IT, The seigniorage OH the bullion in
stock amounts TO S53. UOO, 90 o and when II Is
all coined. providing Congress does not su--
thorize an issue of certificates against this
seigniorage before it is coined, there will bs
that mucn of an addition TO the silver coin
age of the country, But it will take we years
to coin the bullion now on hand.
There is no authority of law now TO pur-
chase any more bullion except for use as
subsidiary coin. For that purpose there can
be an increase of good many million dol
lars. But as the treasury is now loaded down
with Sl3,0OO,0O0 of subsidiary coin, which is
very much worn aud needs TO be recoined
ana as the mints will be occupied in coming
the bullion now on hand, II is not probable
that any more silver bullion will be pur-
chased for any purpose for a good while to
come.
