Of this there remained on July 1, 1902, 33,218,000 oz.' So that it follows that if the United States Government continued to coin silver after June 30 last, at the same rate as for the year ended that date, its supply would be exhausted at the end of Oct. next, when it would have to come into the market and purchase. Is it not Possible that they are purchasing now, whilst the price is low, instead of six months hence when the knowledge that 828 their stock was exhausted would increase prices The world's production of silver for the three years 1899 to 1901 averaged 171,986,000 0 During this time no purchases were inade by the United States | Government, but if they come in shortly and purchase for their requirements, on the basis of the above figures, they will absorb annually something like 15 por cent. of the word's supply, a fresh de- mand that cannot fail to have an effect upon future prices-Yours faithfully,

It is gratifying to know that u large number of subscriptions have been already received, many of them from the educated Chinese of Shanghai and the outports.
