There is no doubt that the earwa of events since 1902, therefore, has neg atived the belief, then gonecally held. that silver would continue to decline in gold value. The supply bad been for many years nearly constant, and had exceeded the demand at the old prices. The German Imperial Government sold at one time large amounts of silver, and still retained enough to execute all its subsidary coinsgedown to a recaut date. The Government of the United States also not only suspended in 1893 regular purchases of siver, but availed itself of an accumulated stock of metal fot its subsidiary coinage, while the Govern wens of the Latin Union, is providing for now subsidiary coinage, coined up their Thus these Gov- Yen 24,000,00€ | existing & franc pieces.

between Russia and Japan called for large amounts of silver in Mancharia, and while thie domated was in a sense temporary, the gilver absorbed there seems to be finding its way into circalation in different parts of Chins and the East, lasted f the bullien market. returning upon The Government of British India, mure- over, has continuously made large pur- chases of silver since the surumo 1903, and indiested to the Commission on International Exchange in 1908 that these purchases were being made with com parative regularity. Sti more recently, a fund, known ay the "Special Ingot Reservo," has been accumulated in London by the Indian Government, with the avowed purpose of being prepared to west coinsge demande in India promptly when they arcse. The last Indian financial statement etates that experience has shown that the amount of this reserve "originally sed was not large enough, and it has been decid. ed that its smount shall be doubled." The Padoption of this policy in India has been a natural result of the great expansion of the rep abipping ares by the extension of the railway network, and there are at present no indications of a cessation of the demand for the while metal in India. The Cuited States Government has also come into the market, and is making regular weekly purchases.
