The silver market was . depressed throughout the year. The highest quota- tion on the London market was 29%d, on | January 2, and the lowest 24 15-16d, in De- cember. The purchases on account of the | Government of India fell off heavily from the preceding year. The cofnage of the Indian mints for the eleven months .end- | ing with February, 1902, was only 48,507,600 rupees, against 150,780,774 rupees in the same months of the previous year. The demand for China also declined owing to the retirement of most of the forelgn troops called there during the Boxer trou- bles of 1900. While the troops were there the shipments of silver were exception- ally large, and after their retirement sil- ver bars and Mexican dollars accumu- lated at the seaports in unusual amounts, rerdering further imports for the time unnecessary. The European demand for silver for coinage purposes is light, as the governments are pursuing the policy of supplying needs for subsidiary coins by the recoinage of full legal tender coins, About 30 per cent of the silver output of the United States is from silver ores, the remainder being reduced in conjunc- | tion with lead and copper. After allowing for .industrial consump- tlon the increase in the gold stocks of the principal countries for the calendar year 1901 are estimated to have been ap- proximately as follows: Unjted States, $63,800,000; £27,600,000; Beltlzm, n.mm%f"é”"““““"' $17,000,000; India, $5.K80,000; 0005 Germany., $41,700,000; 3. 700,000; Netberlahds, $5.600.000; Por- .000: Roumania., '$1,800,000; - ,000; Switzerland, 3,500,000 " C The only countries showing a loss dur- ing the year are Norway, $1,600,000, and Rusga.. $9,700,000. —e " Killed While Repairing Gaspipe.

RALROAD MEN ENTER DENILS WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.—The answers of the Northern Securities and Great Northern Railway companies in the sult of the State of Washington against the Securities Company and the Great North- ern and Northern Pacific railways were tiled in the Supreme Court of the United States to-day. They are practically du- plicates of the answer of the Northern Pacific, which was filed yesterday. 1In its statement the Securities Company admits ‘that it has no agent or represeni- ative in the State of Washington on whom a legal process may be sérved and that it owns no property of any nature whatever in that State. 3 - It denies that “any of the matters al- leged in subdivision 13 of the bill of the complaint tend to or do create a monop- oly in railway traffic in the State of ‘Washington or elsewhere, or tend to or Go deprive sald State or its citizens of the privilege of competition in fixing charges or rates of transportation be- tween stations on the lines of the rail- ways of the defendant railway compan- ies within said State.” It also denies that in its organization the promoters had any of the piurposes alleged in the bill, or that it or either the defendant rallroad companies has at any time had any of the purposes, intents or designs charged inesubdivision No. 14 or elsewhere in said bill. It also denies that it is a carrier or a railroad company or that any of the acts complained of violate or evade the laws of the land or the settled public policy or laws of the State of Washington. It is further stated that the Securities Company is the owner and holder of a large amount of property and stocks in other corporations than the defendant railway companies. ¢ L, Nov.. 12.—The . THOMAS, D. W. n['n’gg:rwuemlu in Barbadoes is decreasing rapidly, YUKON OFFIIS OUST AMERIGANS Special Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, Nov. 12.—Americans employ- ed i responsible positions under the Gov- ernment of Yukon Teritory have been re- quired to become naturalized British sub- jecis or step out. A large number have taken the oath of alleglance, thereby re- taining their places. Willlam Fuersti, who arrived from Dawson to-day, re- signed rather than lose his American citi- zenchip. For three years he has been stenographer in the office of Gold Com- missioner Senkler, where rapidity and ex- pertness are required in reporting the contests and litigation involving prop- ertles worth millions. A year ago the Canadians at Dawson began a persistent agitation for the re- placing of all Americans in the Govern- ment employ with Canadians. Gold Com- missioner Senkler decided that Fuersti shculd stay. This summer James Smart, Deputy Minister of the Interior, in re- sponse to vigorous requests by the Can- adian element, let it be known that Amer. icans must take the oath of allegiance or give way to British subjects. The ma- tron of the jail, the woodcl and others were let out. Owing to Fuerstf's efficlency and the desire of his superior to retain him, red-hot cor with the Ottawa Government followed. This resulted in the final decision that Fuersti must apply for Canadian papers or resign. He chose the latter course and is row en route to California to pass the winter. Among the Americans who have becoms naturalized Britishers are Willlam Walsh, expert detective; D. A. Blankman. court stenographer; the chief stenographer of the higher court and a number of the members of the Northwest Mounted Po- lce. —_— ST. THOMAS, D.
