UNCLE SAM TO BUY SILVER
In Market For Bullion For Subsidiary
Coinaue,

Washington, Aug. 10.--For the first
time in thirteen years the government
announced its purpose to purchase sill
yer for subsidiary coinage purposes.
Tenders are invited at the office of the
director of the mint. in this city on
Wednesday, the 18TH inst, and every
Wednesday thereafter until further
notice. These tenders are to be for
delivery at the Philadelphia, New Or
leans or Denver mints, settlement to
be on the New York basis of bullion
guaranteed 900 fine. The treasury re-
serves the right to reject all tenders
or accept such part Of any tender as
may suit its convenience.
1t is understood that, anticipating
that its reappearance as purchaser
might temporarily disturb the market
unduly, the treasury has obtained con
siderable amounts for future delivery,
30 that it is in position to drop out of
the market for several months if de-
sirable. The average requirements of
the treasury throughout the year will
probably not exceed 100000 ounces per
week, and it will be the policy of the
department, while keeping a reasona-
BILE amount in hand, to SO distribute
its purchases throughout the year that
its demands will be uniform and not
an element of uncertainty in the mar
ket
