IN A ROTHSCHILD STRONG
BON.
The Custodian of Bonds in Ship
mcnt Tells What He Saw.

"The largest shipment of I nlted
States bonds to Europe, 50 far AS |
can remember" said Mr.. J. X.
Upton, former Assistant Secretary
of the Treasury, was made in 1919
and consi sted of 20, 100000 coupon
As. 1t was made under my charge
and presume my experience was
about the same as that of Others
serving in like capacity. The
bonds were in five steel boxes,
weighing when packed about 400
pounds each, all fastened by COM
bination locks, Of which we had no
key.
"We rode with the boxes to
New York in postal car. At the
Jersey City station we were met by
the superintendent ofthe sub-treaS-
ury of New York, who secured for
us the necessary transportation to
the boat, where the bonds were de-
posted in the specie vault, under
the immediate control OF the pur-
ser. but until the boat left the pier
some one of our party kept an eye
on the boxes. Once at sea, how
ever, we relaxed our vigilance, and
renewed it only when again APP
preaching land AT Liverpool,
VIII ere we arrived after - pleasant
passage, | had SOME trouble in get
ting the boxes through the custom
house, not being able to declare
under oath that | personally knew
their contents, and there being no
way to open them. A compromise
was finally effected by my taking
with me a customs official, who
should see that the boxes reached
the consignees undisturbed, and
when opened contained the bonds
alleged, his expenses to be paid by
the syndicate. This delay caused
us 10 remain all night in Liverpool.
We mad the boxes taken to our
rooms, and there We took turns IN
watching them through the night.
! The English official, however. had
no relief from his vigis. In the
morning, through a little British
gold, | obtained the practical con-
troll OF a passenger car, into which
we put our personal baggage and
the five boxes. for which we paid
as for extra weight baggage. The
exclusive use OF the car was deem
ed important, the bonds represent
ing such an enormous amount of

Other treasury officials temporarily
employed at the headquarters of
the syndicate. Messrs. Rothschild
e. Sons, in. scheduling and counting
bonds and coupons received IN pay
ment of the new bonds. We went
with our boxes to the Office OF the
firm mentioned. and in its money
vaults our bonds were counted and
found correct, and II receipt given
showing that our duty had been
performed, much to my relief.
This money vault, as | remcm.
Der it, opened only at the top,
through the floor of the room above,

1t was not Al imposing sight, but
it contained an enormous amount
of securities issued by nearly every

OF the Camhidge uniyersity athletic
clubs committee took place yesterday af-
ternoon, In order 10 eonsider Yale's CON-
ditlonal acceptance OF the challenge OF
Oxford aud Cambridge for track contest

feeling of tho members present that II
Cambridge defeats Oxford In the ap.

Yale will then challenge Cambridge alone,
Cambridge will Accept the challenge. It
WINS also the Unanimous feeling Of the
meeting that Cambridge could not with
dignity accept challenge to compete with
Oxford against Yale alone. The Cam
bridge men would prefer going to the
United States with Oxford, provided Yale
could make a similar combination with
some American university.
Tho Oxford committee held a similar
meeting to consider Yale's letter, At the
conclusion Of the meeting 1t was an
nounced that they had arrived at prac-
tically tho same understanding rs arrived
ct by the Cambridge men.
Messrs Koran and Oakley exchanged
views today on the subject OF Yale's re-
ply, and came to the conclusion that Ok
