NO FEARS FOR GOLD.
Not Likely That Expectations W
Continue.

Not Likely That Expectations wan
Continue.
Washington. April %. Alarming
statements to the effect that the recent
flood of gold to Europe WILDE followed
by a steadily increasing export Tide as
q sequel of the passage of the new
gold standard law are utterly discred-
tied at the treasury department.. The
opponents of the sound money law late
ly passed We're quick to seize upon the
expectation OF 100000 of gold to Eng
land as the first substantial proof of
their contentious against the gold
standard. Advices received by the
treasury department officials disprove
completely these claims. and show that
the expectation of $500, 900 in gold was
due to England's enormous war ex-
penses and the unusual demands being
made upon this country for supplies
to be forwarded to the seat OF action
III the Transvaal. No significance
whatever Is attached to the reversal of
the gold tide.
Financial interests have been some
what puzzled by the paradoxical expor-
itation of gold because OF the enormous
trade balance to the credit of this coun-
try from other nations Of the world.
But SO far the anxiety has been con-
fined to irresponsible quarters and to-
the enemies of the gold standard who
insist that heavy tax upon our gold
resources would seriouly impair busi-
ness relations because this country is
now committed to the use of gold. and
that specie may be demanded as re-
demption for all securities and pay
ment OF debts.
These scarecrows We're exposed by
the statement OF high official at the
treasury department yesterday, who
said: 1T is utter folly to attach any
thing to this expectation OF gold. IT
has no relation whateversto the recent
ly enacted gold standard 1t was due
TO the fact that England has been maxi
ing unusually heavy demands for
money on account of war expenses AS
matter of fact. do not anticipate
any further expectation. In the first
place, this country has q strong hold
upon the balance of trade and the gold
product. The enormous output of gold
in this country ard in Alaska annually
removes all fears as to the absence of
sufficient gold to transact business.
Then there are he surplus products Of
wheat, cotton. steel and other material.
which bring the balance this way. In
deed, there Is not the slightest cause
for apprehension in business or bank
ing circles because 100000 in gold has
been shipped abroad.
