Mr, Calin, who offered the bar forsale, gives this explanation: “On Tuesday I received telegram fro n o jeweler in Philadelphia whnm I have known for sixtsen ycars, and who isen- u“h & responsible man, asking me if 1 could sel A LARGE AMOUNT OF PURE S'LVER, 1 made inguiries, and telegeaphed hin that T could sell 1t readily.
