GOLD DISBURSEMENTS.
Treasury Burdened with an Oversup-
ply of the Yellow Metal.

WASHINGTON, May ,u.-When asked to-
day as to the reason for so large disburse-
ments in gold, Assistant SECRETARY Wander
lip explained that with the present large
stock of gold in the treasury (about $3.50, $780,
000, with the daily revenues coming in, paid
as it is substantially in gold, it was i'm
perative that disbursements should be made
in similar funds. The fact, too, that the
daily payments are now, and for some time
will continue to be in excess of the receipts,
makes it plain that the large gold balances
will be reduced. This will continue, he said,
until by the proceeds of sales of the new
bonds to be provided for the receipts are
augmented. Comparing the amounts of the
several kinds of money now in the treasury
with the figures for Nov. II last (six months
ago., it is found that the amount of gold
has Increased from $155. O550J0 to $3.50, 696 944.
The amount Of free silver has decreased
from $l6,l42 3l4 to 1874 ,109 and the amount
of United States notes has decreased from
$39, 1858 to $31 ,011653. The amount of
treasury notes is shown to have been de-
notes about $l,90O,00J, and during the same
time the deposits in national banks have in
creased about $10,O00000 account of de-
posts of money received from the Pacific
railroads. For some months prior to the
declaration of war the receipts from Gus
toms were constantly increasing. This is
shown by the records of the department,
from which it appears that since August,

TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER G. 1893


eomo OF the papers are printing some
very nonsensical stuff about Admiral Ger
vera and the letters he is alleged TO have
written.
For our part we do not believe that
cervera would write any of the things al
,ributed 20 him. He would not draw com
par,sons 10 the detriment OF his own
country in order 10 cater to the heeting
popularity that will follow his departure
10 Spain.
There IL trouble enough ahead for him
when he again sets foot on eastman
shores and he IS a man Of too much
discretion 10 compound annoyances by
indiscreet utterances now.
There has been nothing In the conduc'
Of Cervera during the entire war that mas
brought unfavorable criticism upon him.
His fine conception OF the courteous and
gallant thing 10 do in sending word OF
Hobson's safety to our fleet. and his
subsequent treatment Of the Merrimac's
crew won for him deseryedly the favor
and kindly consideration of our people
and we are not prepared to believe that
he has been guilty Of writing letter un-
worthy of a dignihed gentleman and
brave and loyal naval officer.
There has been some disposition to re-
gard from cynical standpoint our treat
ment Of the Spanish Admiral but we ind

II further states that one-ffth OF all the
deaths from disease during the civil war
occurred in regiments that never were
in battle. and quotes the heavy losses in
some Of the colored regiments doing gar
rison duty in the localities in which they
were recruited and where they had been
reared.
In view Of the fact that no figures have
been compiled recently with which to
compare the records of this and the civil
,war. we are forced to await them WITH
however. a feeling that the general results
will be largely along the same line.
1t is not unnatural that disease should
be found among SO large body Of men,
and especially volunteers who come from
the comforts of home to the exposure
of camp life and fare. We can also UNI
derstand how diseases should spread more
freely in camp than in bodies Of men on
the march and I'm battle.
War is no holiday for anybody and we
are much inclined to believe that disease
and death would follow in the wake OF
any army and hover about any camp
however we'll attended.
All that can be done should be done.
and the result we should accept as phi
losophically as possible
