H elena, Ju ly 26.—O rders have been “On and a f te r Aug. 1, ]9ufi, you a re received by th e a s sa y e r in charge of hereby au ino rized and d irected , under th e U nited S ta te s a s say office in th is | section 3520, R evised S ta tu tes , to ac U ’y which will com e as a d isiinct boon | cep l s ilve r con tained in gold deposits to m iners and m in ing m en throughout I w henever th e am ount of silve r iu such

deposits does n o t exceed in value the proportion of one p a r t s ilve r to ten p a rts gold, and pay for d ie sam e a t c u rre n t ra te fixed by th is bu reau .“

T he effect of the above o rder is to perm it of the purchase of gold bars

en t tim e it has b'een necessiry for all I con tain ing p rac tica lly th ree tim es as persons hav ing gold bnlliot. for sale, I m uch silve r as here to fo re. U ntil now, w hich w as less th a n 500 tile to sh ip j gold bars con ta in ing s ilve r in suffi-

th e en tire s ta te .T he effect of th e o rd e r is to very

largely rem ove th e res tr ic ticn s h ere to ­fo re im posed upon th e United S ta tes assay offices in p u rchasing gold bars of less than 500 fine. U p to the pres­

it e a s t and w ait approxim ately a m onth for th e ir re tu rn s, local assay offices of the U nited S ta te s o r ai least the H elena office, being denied the right to purchase such in fe rio r lars.

F or two years p a s t an effort has been m ade to am end th is condition by lessening th e requ ired fineness of the bars, in o rder to accom m odée a la rg ­e r num ber of m iners of prtcious m et­als.

T he o rder received today from Geo. E. R oberts, d irec to r o f tin mint, a t W ashington and a |p ro v e d ty S ecre­tary- of th e Treasuijy Leslie M. Shaw, h a s th e effect of njeeting mis ra th e r em b arrassin g hardship.

T he o rder reads as follows:

oient quan tity to m ake th e to ta l cost of it one-th irtie th of the cost of the gold con ta ined the re in w ere th e only bars p e rm itted to be purchased under the regu la tions of the treasu ry de­partm en t.

It will be noted in te e above o rder that the s ilv e r value may be one-tentli of tit« value of the gold, which will undoubtedly resu lt in an im m ense in ­c rease in bullion offerings a t the local assay office and prove of w ide-reaching benefit to all m ining m en, la rge or sm all, who m ay now bring consider­ably in fe rio r bullion to H elena and avoid sh ipping to the e a s t and escape

I tin delays in re tu rn s w hich n atu ra lly i follow such sh ipm ents.
