The outflow of Gold.

It looks very much as if the gold re-
serve would be reduced to dangerously
low point by the time the national cam
paign was fairly begun. Gold is being
withdrawn from the treasury at rate
that is likely to produce a feeling of I'M
easiness in financial circles before very
long. Some of it is being boarded. and
some Of it IS being shipped abroad. The
rate of exchange has risen almost to a
point at which gold can be shipped at a
profit. It is said that Russia is collecting
gold preparatory to getting on gold ba-
sis.
If the gold reserve should fall so low
as to threaten panic would the Presi-
dent issue more bonds for gold? The i'm
preston is that he would, but 1t is by
no means certain that he would In the
face of the present movement in behalf
of silver 1t would be impossible to sell
bonds on as favorable terms as the last
lot Of bonds were sold. II the belief
should become strong that the Chicago
ticket would be elected, Europe would
much more likely send our bonds home
than take other bonds. In that event 1t
would be difficult to market bonds at a
fair price, and we might have serious
financial troubles before the November
election. The gold reserve will be watch
ed closely from now until the election.
