Coming Silver,

New York, Aug. 11.-During the past
week the Paris mint purchased
10000 kilos of silver, to be used in
coming French trade dollars, for
the India and China trade, the market
being bare of Mexican dollars. A kilo
equals little over two pounds. so the
weeks purchase may be stated at 100000
ounces.
Continuance of the Oriental war, which
seems probable, will certainly have the
effect of creating greater demand for
silver--to what extent time only can de-
will be SO considerable as to materially
affect the price.

CHINESE ON THE ALERT.

The Japanese apparently expected to
take the Chinese by surprise while the
latter's warships were away. The Chin
ese squadron with the exception of some
small gunboats and torpedo boats had
sailed the day before for another port.
The gunboats at the fort kept up such a
we'll directed fire that the Japanese were
unable to enter the harbor. The Chin
ese torpedo boats were then ordered to
advance and when they did the Japanese
fleet retired. The same fleet of the
Japanese attacked the entrance to the
harbor later, but the result was not
known when the dispatch was sent.
