WHY SILVER STILL GOES Down
ENKIIah Say Il IL on Account OF De-
creased Demand,

London. Aug. 9-The Westminster ga
zette attributes the fall in silver TO the
inability Of spectators in the United
States to carry the silver purchased with
borrowed money, and to the scarcity Of
buyers. II says that the quantity Of sill
yer lying idle I'm the banks Of China is
large there being much less demand for

both China and Japan. due to the small
ness Of purchases OF silver by America
