The withdrawal OF 100000 Of gold
from this country to England in the
past ten days need alarm nc one as the
United States can keep up this depletion
for a year and not feel it materially. The
only question of interest IN connection
with it really is how England manages
to make the drain on us. 1t Is not bor-
rowpd. nor is 1t stolen. hence it must he
earned IN some legitimate way. We
have boaeted for two years now that the
balance Of trade was all on our side and
that gold would have to come from Fog
land to pay the balance, but it don't
come. Instead, gold continues TO 60 the
other way. There is but one way left
in which England can demand this gold
from us and &c: it, and that is in ex-
change for American securities or EVIL
dences OF debt which she holds against
as. 1t used to be claimed by the popu-
lists during the last national campaign
that America owed England about five
billion dollars OF debts of one kind and
another. II this be true. all she has TO
do is to sell these securities or evidences
of debt on this side OF TIE water again
and get the gold for them, and THE.
doubtless, ie precisely what ia being
done. England needs the gold for con-
Quoting her South African val and she
gets il by unloading American securities
and getting the gold from this country.
She not only unloads securities enough
10 get the margin OF gold which is going
over there but also TO pay all the balance
OF trade 90 our export goods and what
added war materials she purchases be-
sidas. One good feature OF this. Of
course. Is hat Americans buy back their
obligations more cheaply. hence the fall
in stocks and bonds OF ''industrials" IN
our eastern markets and the "panicky"
condition Of our money markets. But
notwithstanding that somebody over
here is making money out OF the situa-
ton and dance while the people pay the
fiddler.

II I,

This respondent is not advised as to
what information the complainant had
received within the month preceding
the filing of its bill in this cause, touch
ing the fraudulent character Of the
proofs Of death submitted by this re-
spondent to it; but she charges that the
complainant, before the filing of its
said bill, was we'll aware, or should
have been we'll aware, from what it
must have known of the character Of
the source of its so-called information,
that such information was unreliable,
its rcesuspicious and Enthusiastically
and the motive prompting the furnish
ing of same of such nature as to rob it
of its right to credence.
It is putting too severe a test upon
credulity even to ask its acceptance OF
the truthfulness OF complainant's allie
CATION, that it in good and honest faith
believed the information it claims to
have received that said Thomas r. did
not in fact and in truth die as alleged,
and shown in the proofs filed by this
respondent with complainant, but that
instead he feigned and counterfeited
death. The complainant must have
known who it was gave rise to the
rumors that said Thomas r. was still
living, and what motive was behind the
starting of such false rumor, since it
had then in its possession letters con-
tanning propositions made to one of its
agents with reference to the refusal Of
payment of said policy, of nature
so utterly mercenary and corrupt that
the sense of right of a tolerably honest
man would be shocked thereby, and
such as will certainly receive the Sc
verest animadversions of the court.
The complainant asserts its claim to
the distinction of being one of the
worlds strongest financial institutions,
Differed and managed by the best bust
ness brain of the Nineteenth Century
1t probably has tentative grounds upor
which to base part of its claims. Blu
the ''ehild-like" faith with which il
was ready to receive, and grab at, il
fact, the base slandering of this respon
dent by its own agents and representa-
tiyes, and its readiness to charge her
without the shadow of even justcaus,
or excusetherefor, withouteven the mos
careless investigation of the true fact
with the commission of a stupendou

petration of same upon the complainant
