LATEST INTELLIGENCE

SUPPLIED THROUGH REUTER'S AGENCY EXCLUSIVELY TO THE ''NORTH-CHINA DAILY NEWS." SILVER IN CONGRESS.

London, 6th June.

The Republican Caucus of the House has adopted a substitute for the origin: Caucus bill. It is mainly similar in its scope, except that it provides for the monthly purchase of four-and-a-half million dollars' worth of silver, the certificates granted for which are to be redeemable in coin or bullion. It also provides for free coinage when gold and silver reach par.
