ments. with small demands on continental
account, and also for the domestic coinage
of England and her colonies.
Early in April, 1900, demand for silver
came from China, which continued for the
remainder Of the year, and this with the
demand by the Indian government, caused
the price to advance by the end Of June to
2S Sled, the highest price of the year.
The average price of silver for the year,
based upon daily London quotations, was
27.315Od., equivalent at par of exchange to
$0.6OO17 per ounce, fine, in United States

silver to gold was as to 1901: at the low
