A DIMINISHING GOLD RESERVE

The gradual diminution of our gold re-
serve begins to be cause for apprehen-
sion, and although the Belmont syndicate
has done all that was possible to comply
with it's contract it is feared that more
gold is being withdrawn than is necessary
for business uses. Only $S,000,000 re-
main unpaid OF the Belmont bond pur-
chase, and unless there are fewer with
drawals before that amount is due our
gold reserve viii have once more dwin-
died to the $100 900 GOO limit.
The amount of gold received as custom
duties during the last three months has
been less than usual. There is prospect,
however, OF an increase as soon as trade
resumes its normal proportions. The de-
mand for Treasury gold will also be
greater, and il VIII require careful manipu-
lation TO avoid an extra session of Con
gress or another bond issue. or these two
evils the session of Congress would be
preferable, but il is hoped the administra
ton viii pull through without the neces-
sity of either.
Were it not for the greenbacks there
would be NO trouble. The revenue, TO
gether with the amount in hand would be
more than enough TO meet expenditures.
But if the gold gamblers begin TO use the
greenbacks for redemption and withdraw
the Treasury gold for speculative pur-
poses ii will be impossible to meet the
emergency except through Congress or
another syndicate loan.
