BOOSTING GOLD RESERVE
One Million Deposited for Account of
the Syndicate
1t Is Expected That the 7ovement Of Crops
Wui Relieve the Situation by Rais-
ing Rates of Exchange

NEW YORK. Sept. SIT was quite
evident today that the Morgan Belmont
bond syndicate expected another large
drain on tie sub-treasury this week. At
the opening of business it was announced
that the Farmers Loan and Trust COM
pany had deposited 81. 600, 900 in the sub
treasury. No explanation of the deposit
was made, but it was generally known
that it was for the account of the bond
syndicate and the belief was confirmed
later by Washington adyices.
This is the second financial institution
to come to the aid of the syndicate. The
first was the American Exchange Nation
al bank, which deposited $500, 600 about a
week ago. At that time it was said that
number of national banks and tinan-
cial institutions which had been mem
hers OF the bond syndicate ha d agreed to
aid Messrs. Morgan AMI Belmont in their
efforts to keep the spirit of the contract
with the government to maintain the
gold reserve against exports in every way
in their mower.
The deposit today. while it was not in
cluded in the net gold reserve. will of ne
cessity maintain the reserve above 500,
OOO 00O. The reserve today was trihe in
excess OF $10l, 900, 900. The first withdraw
Nesslage d Fuller, who notified the
treasury officials that they would ship
Sloo, 900 IN gold on an outgoing steam
ship.
Later in the day Hoskier, Wood e. Co.
announced that they would require ST..
600, 900 in gold for shipment tomorrow,
making total of 81, 100, 900 ordered dur
ing the day.
Notwithstanding the continued gold
shipments the feeling in financial circles
concerning the outlook was serene and
hopeful. The possibility OF tho 500, 900,
900 being encroached upon as soon as the
bond syndicate failed TO continue 70 pour
gold into the sub treasury does not seem
to be considered This is duo to the ex-
pectatlon that the movemenr, of crops to
Europe will before long cause plentiful
supply of commercial bills to be in cir.
culation and of necessity lower the rate
of exchange to figure which would prac
rically prohibit the shipment of gold.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 3.-The de-
capitated body of B. +. Pitzel, one of

ner's physicians. The coffin with its
CHASTITY burden was carried into the tool
shed OF the cemetery, but the utmost
vigilance was maintained to keep the OBJ
iect of the examnstion a secret. 1t was
subsequently learned that one of the
bones of the leg had bsen removed from
the body and the booy then rc-interred.
The dead mans skull was severed from
