JAPAN's GOLD RESERVE.

The gold reserve of the Bank of Ja- pan has been steadily decreasing dur ing the past few months. The report of the bank for the week ending June 4, however, shows an increase of 34,000 yen. which sum, together with the amount In hand, constitutes a gross total of 63,00S,000 yen. This change may be ascribed to the receipt of the indemnity. In order to prevent any sudden fuctuation in the market which would take place should the indemnity be brought home at once, the Nippon Ginko has adopted policy of gradual transmission. Yet though the specie is retained in London, there is no reason, asserts the Mainichi, why it should not be indirectly utilized for the immediate succor of the financial community. The convertible notes issued up to the 4th of June amounted to 172. .360. 900 yen, showing a decrease of Ill., 700 yen as compared with the previous week, whereas the issue above the legal limit totaled 26,S70,000 yen, the decrease be- ing 260, 900 yen. As to the loans issued by the bank 1t may be stated that an increase of ,000 yen is noticeable in discounted bills, of 2.720,000 yen in cash, and of 100000 yen in exchange bills, these items together making a total of 4, ,00o 900 yen.-Japan Daily Mail.
