THREATENED CORNER IN
SILVER MARKET AvERTED.
Mexican Pious Award of s1.423, 900 Is
Turned to Filipino bullion Ac-
count for Transfer.

Washington. June 21.-The State Depart
mert through Judge Penfield. the Solicitor.
by an adrOit move has broken what ap-
peared to be a corner in the silver market.
When the Mexican Government recently
deposited Sl.42S.000 Mexican money in the Ma
tonal Bank OF Mexico, subject to the draft
OF the United States. in payment OF the
p.ous award. the State Department was
confronted with the necessity of turning the
money into United States cash and de-
posting it here.
For some time silver brokers' had been
watching the negotiations. and when they
were applied to the department was in
formed Il would cost about $4,000 United
States money to convert the fund and
transfer ii as desired.
This was regarded as an exorbitant
charge. but no other and better bid was
offered. Finally. Judge Penifeld hit upon
the plan of turning this Mexican silver into
Filipino money.
Director Roberts OF the Mint Bureau who
has been buying bullion for the Philippine
account, has been confronted with a strong
y rising silver market. and something very
like a corner in that commodity
lie, therefore, readily accepted Judge Pen
fields offer of big lot OF Mexican silver
and closed an agreement. by which at an
expense Of less than $500 the amount of
tie pious award can be placed in the hands
of the Catholic Church. the beneficiary of
the award. and the seventy tons OF silver
can be transferred to the United States
