senting legal tenders at the Treasury for
redemption. Along with their tender
for toe bonds was a pledge that they
would not draw gold out of the treasury
to pay for them. They kept the pledge.
All the gold they used to pay for the
bonds, they drew from the banks and
private boards. But while they kept
their promise to the ear they broke
it TO the hope. For very soon after the
bonds were paid for they began to draw
back their gold by presenting legal ten
ders for redemption. There was nothing
Illegal or illegitimate about their action.
The treasury gold is kept for the re-
demption of legal tender notes, that is
what it is for. The government cannot
stop the withdrawal of gold by this
process. The second cause OF the loss
of gold is the demand for shipment
which began last week. This demand
from now on until summer is certain to
increase. A steady reduction of the
gold reserve is to be looked for, there
fore, for some time to come.
No sooner has the gold reserve been
brought up to the required figure than
it's outflow begins. with the govern
ment absolutely powerless to stop it. A
syndicate of bankers can in a short
time, if SO disposed, SO drain the Treas
ury as to compel the issue of more bonds,
and as these bonds are profitable to
their purchasers, there is strong temp
tation before them to do it, and there
is strong suspicion that as matter of
fact they are doing it, and that before
many months have passed another bond
issue will be necessary.

two millions. The loss has come ahouu
in two ways. 1t seems that the syndi-
