In reference to the report of recent sales Of

Mr.. Vandyke, the Assistant Treasurer in New
York, has discretionary power TO sell such
amounts Of gold as he may deem necessary
TO prevent the success Of any combination 70
put the price of gold up to an unreasonable
kgure. 1t is the opinion of the Secretary
that there is nothing at this time in the imam
cial situation of the country that will justify
premium on gold of over forty per cent. ,and
ia the event Of an effort on the part OF
speculaiors TO advance the premium unreas
onably here, there is no reason TO suppoae
that the government gold will be thrown on
the market. The amonai of gold now in the
Treasury is over ninety seven millions OF
dollars. Of which % millions belong abso

indicst,on that very little, il any. Treasury
gold has been recently put on the market.
