that S5O0,O00 In gold coin had been

With the deposit of gold to. day by
the syndicate their deposits since gold
exports have been resumed on lur2r
scale, reached IL toral of S., 346. 600.
1t Is estimated here TINT with ex
change at the high figure quoted 4gOla

81, 600, 600 gold exported is mnde by
the shippers. Treasury officials are
much grBtified ut the action OF the syu.
dicate as 1t Is construed to mean that
they will not permit the gold resel We
to fall below SluO, 900, coo. At the close
OF business to day the reserve stood at
Sl0l, ,933, 7l5.
The State Department is awaiting
fuller particulars OF the assault on the
American school at Tarsus. Syria.
Minister Terrell has Informed the
State Department that he has sent
Thomas Ii. Gibson. United States
Consul at Beirut. to Tarsus to mnke
inquiry into the incident, and Minister
Terrell's dispatches on the subject show
that this action WAS taken several DAYS
before news of the assault was cabled
to this country.
Even before the news was generally
known in Constantinople, the Minister
had made complaint TO the Porte ana
dispatched MIR. Gordon on his mission.
In view Of the action of the Minister
IN not making report on the matter
until he had been telegraphsd hv the
State Department, it Is believed here
that the incident was not OF 8 serious
character.
The United States Government will
probably send one Of its Consuls to
represent Ii in the investigation into
the recent messacres ut ku Cherg,
