About $500, 900 OF Gold Was Hoarded Pre-

Only one week has elapsed since the

in Richmond and vicinity. The Times

of new enterprises starting up, ana the

when any workmen happened 10 get

were greatly surprised.
A week or two before the election,
wren 1t was confidently expected tha'
the election would result IN sound

while after the result was announced the
Iold was taken out of It's hiding places,

part of the banks TO hold back the gold
which was accordingly circulated pretty

GOLD DEPOSITS.
The Tanks were visited yesterday and
asked what their deposits Of gold had
aggregated since the election a week
ago. 1t was learned that the amounts
varied at the several banks. from Sl,9D
to sl3O,Oo0 The 1g yrosate was about S-'9'-

while another bank officer said tho de-

II was learned from a reliable source
that about $500. 900 of gold was boarded in
Richmond before the election, and near
~ 100000 of sterling exchange was
bought These figures give an idea OF
the general tendency Of the people TO
hoard their gold during the political un-

PAYING 1T OUT.
Since the election the banks are paying
out gold steadily. and no disposition 70

officers | saw yesterday said they were
paying it out as fast as it came in. and
they did not hesitate to let it go whenever
anyone called for it,
one bank officer said that the deposits
in gold AT his bank since the election had
been three times as large as the amount
