THE SILVER OUTLOOK.

Attention was directed in these
columns last week to the symptoms OF
a movement in the price Of silver bull
lion and to the causes which were be-
lleyed 10 render such a demonstration
probable. During the present week
there has been a partial yerihcation Of
this forecast. Bar silver in London,
as will be seen elsewhere in this Issue
Of Bradstreets, has shown greatly in
creased activity, and the quotations
have advanced to 27Ad per ounce. The
New York market also has responded TO
the rise abroad by an advance to G0h
cents per ounce While there would
seem 10 be some speculation connected
With the demonstration, there is also
reason 20 conclude that the hardening
Of prices for silver Is legitimate, is due
TO actual conditions and has its justih-
cation In the position Of the Indian
treasury and the supply Of silver in the
form OF rupees available for circulation
in that country. The latest advlces
from London continue 10 dwell upon
ment Is willing to seriously embarrass
general trade in that part Of the world.
II Will be necessary for Il 10 purchase
silver upon comparatively large scale
and coin the same into rupees Under
such circumstances II is hardly likely
that the alleged determination OF the
Indian Council not TO bur silver at
above 2ld, per ounce Will hold good
The indications, in fact, are that II has
been buying this week perhaps TO n
considerable extent, and that this Is the
demand which has caused prices both
here and IN London 10 harden and ad-
vance rather than mere speculation for
a rise by bullion dealers and others who
consider II feasible 10 take advantage
OF the necessities OF the Indian govern
ment,
Recent large sales Of Geographic
transfers on India by the council. the
deposit Of more gold for its account in
the Bank Of England and the dispatch
OF gold direct TO India both from Lon
don and Australia indicate that the
silver reserves OF that country have
been and win be subjected to consider
able further depletion. IL would seem
that at the present time the $1,000 900
to SO,O09.OOO rupees held In the cash re-
serve OF the Indian treasury constitute
less than one-half OF the total, and
competent authorities are Of the opln-
ion that should the intention Of pro.
curing something like 100000 more
gold for India be carried out II will re-
suit in O further reduction o. the sill
yer holdings 10 about 40.00O00O rupees
1t can thus be readily appreciated that
the position OF the Indian government
with reference 20 the carrying out Of
its gold-eurrency policy constitutes the
best argument for higher silver prices
than has appeared for some time past.
IL might be remarked that the move
ment In question has had an effect upon
many securities in the London market,
not the least noticeable being the APP
probation in the bonds and shares OF
Mexican railroads Bradstreets.

SUPERSTITION.

1t is strange likewise how men will
argue from tradition, which is for the

not because It Is precedent, but because

not interfere with the ingress or egress
OF the old people from their cottage to
Sixth South street. The paper is signed
by Harter and his wife and is witnessed
by A. j. Meeks.
