COvEROMENT TO BUY
SILVER FOR COINAGE

Washington, Aug. 10, For the first
time in l3 years the government an
nouncsd TODAY its purpose to purchase
silver tor coinage purposes. Tenders
are invited to the offices of the direct.
ors of the mint in lis city on Wednes
day. the l5 instant up to o'clock
p. m. and every Wednesday, there
ater until further notice.
These tenders are TO be for delivery
at the Philadelphia New Orleans and
Denver mjnts, settlement to be on th a
New York basis of bullion, guaranteed
999 fine.
The treasury reserves the right to
reject or all tenders or accept such
part of any tender as may suit its con-
venisnce. 1t is n lerstood that, anti
citpating { at its temperance as a
purchaser might temporarily disturb
the market unduly, the treasury has
obtained control OF considerable
amounts for future delivery. so that il
IS in position to drop out of he mar
ket for several months if desirable.
The average requirements of the treaa-
ury throughout the year Will probably
not exceed 10000 ounces per week.
and it will be the policy of the depart
meut TO, while keeping a reasonabl
amount on hand, to so distribute it's
purchases throughout the year that
it's demands will be uniform and not
an element of uncertainty in the
market.
From the resumption of spe.ie pay
ments In 1879 down to the ) ear 1910
the constant increase in the stock of
subsidiary coin required by the grow
ing population and trade of the coun-
try was supplied by the recoinsge of
old and unourreDt subsidiary coins
which accumulated in the treasury
under the rsumptiun act. In 1900 as
the stock was running low, authority
was granted in the monetary act of
March IA, to the secretary of the
treasury to divert bullion purchased
under the act of July IA, 1890, in the
coinage OF subsidiary pieces. Under
this authority about $3.50, 900 600 has
been coined snce 1900. The stock of
bullion in the treasury wa. exhausted
more thar year ago. and since then
no bullion mas been available for sub.
sidiary use.
The stock in the treasury had he
come SO low that it was apparent. &C.
cording to the department, that the
demands of constantly snlarging
trade could not be met without addi-
tsonal coinage. The secretary: :of. the
treasury was in doubt whether existed
statutes authorized him to buy bul.
lion for this purpose, aun moreover.
was of the opinion that it would be
better policy to meet future demands
for subsidiary coin by the recoiuage Of
silver dollars in the treasury, and 80
recommended to congress. Congress.
however, having fsiIed to act upon his
recommendation, Secretsrv snaw re-
4usstsd on opivion from the attorney
general as to authority to purchase
fullion for this purpose under existing
laws and he receivd Q favorabl reply
based on section 1886 of the revised
statutes. The policy now announced
was accordingly determined upon.

Corn Weak.

The corn market was weak because
Of liberal sales by commission-houses
and cash interests, and tine weakness
of the wheat market. May opened
1sc to nc lower, and for time held
within the opening range.
The volume of trading in oats was
large, there being free selling from
the long side Of the market. Because
of this selling the market was in
clined to be weak, although lively
demand by shorts in some measure
checked the decline.
Provisions were strong because of
light receipts of live hogs. Bullish
sentiment was increased by heavy
exports of lard.

The new ENGLAND
manufacturers.
AT SECRET MEETING DECIDE
TO RAISE PRICE OF ALL
SHOES.
EFFECT ON LOCAL MARKET
Dealers Reluctant About Raising the
Price For Fear of Losing Trade
But Forced to Do So.

Boston, Mass, January 29.-At a
secret meeting of New England shoe
manufacturers an organization was
formed TO raise the retail price OF
their products. The new ASSOCIATION
will also combat increasing prices of
raw materials and the falling quail
ties OF hides and leather produced by
the leather trusts. The decision to
raise the price of shoes was the re-
suit of a long and animated debate,
in which the only alternative pre-
scented was a cheapening of the quail
ity of standard and established lines.
This was regarded by the majority
as poor business policy, and in the
end the determination to make the
consumer pay more was reached. The
discussion brought out the statement
from most of the manufacturers
that the increased cost of leather and
other materials has almost entirely
eliminated profits, and that some
drastic step is absolutely necessary
was the unanimous opinion.

Local Situation.

The big advance in all kinds of
shoes has not affected the general
public in this city up to the present
time but the dealers are feeling it
keenly. Notwithstanding that shoes
are higher now than they have been
for years past the retailers in this
city maintain the old price. Medium
grades of shoes which retail for $3.50
are now being bought by the dealers
at wholesale for 80 cents more than
they paid for them one year ago.
The profit on this grade of shoes Is
only about 10 or Is per cent. Shoes
formerly retailing for $3.50 were
bought by the dealers at $1.17. They
now pay $1.35. The higher grade of
shoes which retail at S. and So net
the dealer almost no profit. In the
larger cities these same grade of
shoes are now being sold for 81 and

or Chicago to buy the same make of
shoes at the same proce.
Two years ago green or long hair
ed hides sold at 5 cents pound.
They now sell at 16 cents, which is a
higher price than hides sold during
the Civil War. The dealers and shoe
manufacturers attribute this state of
affairs to the beef trust, who made
the first increase in price at the open
ing of the Observation-Disclosures war.
Since the close of the war the market
has not decreased, in fact the biggest
increase has been in the past eight
months. The shoe manufacturers re-
Gently petitioned President Roose-
welt to assist them in decreasing the
tariff on hides so that Canadian raw
material could be used and the deal
ers of this city are praying that the
President will find it in his power to
affect some remedy.
Many local dealers say that they
cannot maintain the present prices
they are now retailing shoes for and
state an advance in price will be
made this spring. The shoes which
are widely advertised at certain price
still retail at that price but the ma
terial they are made of has been
greatly cheapened. The shoes which
are not advertised have all been adj
vanced in price to meet the market
conditions. Right now profits on
shoes are from p cents to so cents
less to Richmond dealers than they
were year ago.

INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS
Small Receipts of Hogs Caused
Steady Prices and Market Was
Strong Considering Quality;
Better Feeling for Cattle.

indianapolis, January 29.-Re-
ceipts-2.000 hogs, 200 cattle and %
sheep. against 1929 hogs, 55S cattle
and 81 sheep a week ago, and 1850
hogs. 325 cattle and ID sheep a year
ago.
Receipts of hogs were compare
lively small for Monday, and in quail
itv and condition consignments were
hardly equal to the standard at the
close of last week. There were hardly
enough here to encourage COMPETE
ton between buyers. but there was a
fair demand from local packers, and.
with favorable reports from other
places. statesmen had little trouble
in placing the supply at steady prices
compared with the close Of last week.
Considering quality the market was
strong. The close was steady at
opening prices. Sales ranged from
$5.450 5.65, and the bulk of the sup
ply sold at $5.50@5.G0, although
there were several sales above $500.
Cattle Market STEADY.
There was a small supply Of cattle
and absence Of cattle good enough TO
sell around top prices. AS usual on
Monday. most Of the offerings were
butcher grades, and with all local
buyers in the field and a steady de-
mand, trading was active at steady
prices compared with the close of
last week. There was a healthier feel
ing in the trade and statesmen are
expecting a little better results in
the near future. There was a steady
market for feeders. At the close of
trade the pens were well cleared.
Sheep Scarce.
There were not enough sheep or
lambs to establish prices, and there
was no change in the market COM
pared with the close of last week.
Lambs sell for $50 down, yearlings
for $500 down and sheep for $500
down.
