SILVER.
Price Holds Firm on Expectation of
 Demand from India.

The silver market is holding firm on the expectation of a renewed demand from India for coinage purposes It is pointed out that the stock of silver in the India currency department is at low ebb compared with this time year ago and that, if the movement of silver to interior points is as large this year as it was last, the entire stock in the currency departm ment will be wiped out
 It has been the policy of the Indian government to purchase silver for coinage purposes when the stock on hand declines to below a certain fig ure. That this figure will be reached and that purchases will have to be made seems certain at present. Hence there is a very good prospect that IIl- dia will ha hoe~y buyer of silver ir l. t near future.

c. & A. and Greene-Cananea Both
 Show Increases.

DOUGLAS-The combined produc- tion of copper at the Douglas smelters for the month of July amounted to about 15,50O,000 pounds, which was an increase over the production for the month of June.
 Of this amount the Copper Queen smelter produced 10,50O,00 pounds, and the Calumet & Arizona smeluer produced 5,OO0,0O0 pounds, being nearly five hundred pounds increase over the previous month.
 At the Queen the second reverber- atory has been in commission with the beginning of this month, but there is no liklihood of any material increase in product there. The c. & A. plant is not yet working up to the limit.
 The production at the Queen smell ter for July was distributed as fol- lows: From the Copper Queen Moctezuma Copper company concen- trates, 3,000,000 pounds, and from the custom ores about 100000 pounds
 Construction work on the new smelter being built by the Calumet & Arizona is progressing well and the expectation is that this new plant will be ready for operation in about one year from the present time.
 Cananea Production.
 The output of the Cananea Consoli- dated Copper company smelter dur ing the month of July, was a little over 6,100,000 pounds of blister cop per, which shows gain over the preceding month, which was less than six million pounds. The Mi ami company output is included in these figures.
 The new Great Falls converterS will both be in operation this month, the first one already being in use for the past week or two and the second now being erected. This will probably mean an increased out put for August.

ginla company In the year 1912, only
five years after the founding of James
town. These coins were minted at
Somers islands, now known as the Ber-
mudas. For a period Of more than a
quarter Of century after this, how
ever, tobacco and beaver skins were
reckoned as lawful currency.
In 1915 the assembly of Virginia
met and declared that 1t had mature

they pror1ded for the coinage Of cop
