COUNTING BIG MONEY
In Order to Transfer the Charge tn
the New Treasurer.

In Order to Transfer the Charge to
the New Treasurer.
The count of the moneys and securities
in the United States treasury, consequent
upon the transfer of the office Of treasurer
from Mr.. Nebeker to Mr.. Morgan June
last, was completed this afternoon 1t was
an enormous undertaking, and involved the
handling Of about 1851 900, coo in gold, silver
currency and bonds. The treasurers ac-
counts were verified in every instance, ex-
cept in the case of silver, stored in the large
new vault to the amount Of over $100 0O0, ,000
where there were ten coins missing These
are supposed to have slipped between
cracks in the board floor recently put in
over the concrete floor to preserve the sill
yer bags from dampness. Many Of these
bags became mildewed and burst when
handled, scattering their contents on the
floor. The loss was so trifing that it was
not deemed worth while to raise the floor
stray coins will undoubtedly be recovered
In the meanwhile the official who placed
the silver in the bags from which the coins
were absent was compelled to make good
the deficit and await reimbursement in the
event of the subsequent recovery of the
silver pieces. Today's work was devoted
especially to a count of the gold in the
treasury vaults. amounting to about $11,-
100000. The small gold holdings is due to
the fact that most Of the gold in the treas
ury was recently transferred to the New
York subtreasury to meet the severe drain
at that port.

were killed. Riots directed against French
