As the number of outstanding bour contracts is lossning daily, and the amount of dealers willing | Tronohis
to buy, at the present artificial} prices, is extremely limited, the maintenance of so large a pro mium onisils material qupport on the part of those who have en- gineered the corner, Buil, thoir holding in silver and forward contracts combined his been in” orused materially.
"Whether this inflated specit- lativa stock will bo oasior, to dis- pose of than that held for nearly tivo years past, or whether the tactica adopted of squbozing Banks and otliera yo in the fair course of business have the mis- fortune to be short of silver

The silver market during the past week has continued to bo manipulated by Iudian specula- tors, and the ruling prices may almost be said to be artificial in- usmuch as, for the most part, they have been so far above those either in India or China, to two silver using countries, as to pre- vont any genuine buying orders coming from those quarters.' ..
The chief businges has been "Bear" covoring, which orders, with the speculators controlling the large stocks of ready silver,
have been difficult to fill and the premium on "spot" which at the
end of last week was 3-8d, widon- ed to 3-4d, por oz où the 23rd instant.
