Hide and Leather.

In quarters close to the management
OF the American Hide and Leather Com
pany 1t was declared yesterday that
nothing was known OF the reported for
nation of a syndicate TO buy the stock
now held in Holland. 1t was pointed out
that there was n possibility that such a
syndicate had been formed outside OF the
regular Hide and Leather ranks, but that
further than that there was nothing
which could be said. For many years
there has been held in Holland block OF
81 900 shares of the American Hide and
Leather preferred. These shares are
being held in trust and are represented
by trust certificates listed on the Amster-
dam Bourse. II the stock were brought
to this country II could not be utilized

Exchange until the listing COMMITTEES

American Interna tionsl.

There were all sorts of rumors to account
for the sensational movement of Ameri-
can International Corporation stock
yesterday. and Wall Street was more or
less amused most of the day listening to
them. The one given the most promi-
nence was that the company plans to
cut nice juicy melon and a stock dlvi-
dend OF 40 per cent. Is to be ordered by
the directors In the not far distant fu-
ture. The manner in which 1t will be
done, according to the story, Is the
issuance to holders OF the present 60 per
cent paid up certificates full paid certifi-
Gates In their stead. That bubble burst,
however, yesterday afternoon when an
official of the corporation declared that
the rumor was too ridiculous to merit
denial Instead of possibility that the
60 per cent. certificate holders would
receive fully paid certificate without
additional cost, he declared, II was much
more likely that they would be called
upon for payment of the remaining 40
per cent on their stocks.

| Silver Natural Metal.
| Heretofore England has settled her
trade balances with India by means of
gold. At present England can not
permit the expectation of this noble
metal as 1t would jeopardize the
| foundations of her financial structure
upon which she has reared 100000
600, 900 credit. Therefore If trade bal
ances are to be settled by means of
metallic coin, silver will be the nat
ural metal used for this purpose.
The above statement alone has con-
siderable bearing upon the future of
silver due to the fact that previous to
the war India absorbed $150,000,000
yearly in gold, which must at present
be settled with silver. Then, again,
subsidiary small paper money issued
by European governments during the
war will be replaced by silver, and II
not replaced at least be made a ba-
sis for It's issuance.
The usages in arts and industries
OF silver and it's chemical compounds
have immensely increased. Who
would think that at least 100000 to
20, 900, 900 ounces of this metal Is be-
ing utilized in Photographic and NOV
ing picture industries per annum?
What the Experts Say.
In conclusion, 1t can be safely stat.
ed that the future of silver Is exceed.
ingly bright Ex-senator Guggen-
helm, in recent report to the share
holders of the American Smelling &
Refining company, said: Authorize:
on the silver market agree that thu
price of this metal will be maintained

Senator Reed Smoot, the futur,
chairman of the senate finance com
mittee, recently at meeting of min
ing engineers said: Remove the re
strictions on the price of silver ant
it will have a mighty good rise il

Professor Fisher of Yale was re

international trade" If Professo
Fisher be right in his prophecies, thel
part of all of our foreign debts, ant

tons accruing on our foreign loans
if settled by real metallic money
should in a large sense be settled b
the use of silver.
To summarize the actual outloo
for the future of silver, one can sa

Silver Figures in National Affair

The average price of silver for IA
per ounce. During April, 1918, con-
gress passed what Is known as the
Pittman bill, which established a
maximum price of $1.01B for silver
per ounce, This was done at the ur-
gent request of Great Britain, who
was compelled to secure enormous
quantities of the white metal in order
to restore and maintain the financial
balance of India.
This bill, which also permitted the
melting of the Sherman silver dol
lars, should be a factor in stabilizing
the price of silver for years to come
at 81 per ounce,
Although the passing of the Pitt
man act was a necessary war measure
and was responsible for solving a
very bad financial dilemma for Great
Britain, nevertheless it has already
accomplished its purpose and should
be superseded by law which would
place the price of silver varying &C
cording to the natural economic law
of supply and demand.
1t Is claimed by some very eminent
financial authorities that the silver at
present being exported from our
country and which has been purchas-
ed at $1.01k is being utilized in or
der to settle far eastern trade bal
ances at the rate of $3.50 per ounce,
If this above condition be true the
American silver producers are being
imposed upon by British bankers, and
this injustice should be corrected.
Silver Shortage.
That a shortage of silver exists Is
undisputed, and the following sta
tistics with reference to the world de-
mand should be appreciated by those
mining this metal:
