BAR SILVER VALUED
 AT 60 3-4 AN OUNCE
New High Record Caused by Buying
 for London and France.

New York, March 30.-Bar silver reached new high record of 50 3-4 an ounce today. It was said among the silver houses that the rise in price is due to heavy buying of the metal for London and France to be used to call in paper currency.
 The silver representatives explained that England is buying for shipment to India, to bring up the reserves in the India banks, which are lower than they have been in many years, to the normal standard. They pointed out also that the troubles in Mexico have operated to reduce the supply form that country, thus furnishing a con tributing cause to the rise in price.
