What of Silver F love. De There appears to be a general be- lief that the great prospective gold output in British America and Alaska will send tue price of the other metal fail to increase the value of silver,’* says the London “Globe.”’ +s When Australia poured their riches into the market, silver, like all oiber commodities, Sequired an ev- hanced va.ue.”? That paper takes care to add, theugh, thot time the United States ‘hac mulations of the white me now these have become so that silver sales can only be al a sacrifice.’ The words last quoted from the Bnitish paper show one reason why no expansion in the gold yield thet is within the bounds of probability can materially increase the price of silver. A far stronger how jever, why silver cannot go up mu is that. the cheapening of the processes of production permits silver to be minted at a profit at the quotations of two or three weeks agc and that even a minute’ advance in prices above that low level would re Jopen many mines, greatly the output and send prices again. It should be remembere: too, that this cheapening of produc- tive processes is steadily under way aod tbat the 60c an ounce rate which is not now probibitive, possibly be cut to 50 cents or 40 cents two or three years hence aud | held at that leyel without closing the mines, Another reason why silver is likely to stay low unless the de- mand for it ‘tly increases is that considerable quantities of it are ob- tained in gol and lead mines as by-product, and this, of course, continue. Gold production has been ine’ auriferous reason, down could a few years, and yet this has not strengthened the silver market. In 1890 the world’s yield of gold w while the sieady year 10,000,- about $11:.000,000 and rapid p every sent 1 tup 000. Silver prices in years have gone rapidly just touched the reached. There is a cb seven pre rd lowes nce that the workd's production of gold in 1397 $250,000,000 or $240,000,000, and it. is likely to be $300,000,000 over by the year 1900.

The only hindrance now to a general resumption of work i \ \ a call a nearly all lines of manufacturing pusiness is the present strike, which 1ay groduced a coal famine in certain vital points. The present strike originated in the Pittsburg districtof Peansylvania, ‘The history of the stitke shows that the West Virginia mines and nearly all of the southern miners were pei- fectly satisfied to continue at work, The same is true of a large part of the Ohio, Indiana avd Illinois miners.
