: mensc decrease in god coined and in
reserve and other countries have simi
lar stories to tell. Az inquiry recent
~ set afoot by our Treasury Depart
mcnt showed that the holdings in gold
Ct the national banks on April 10Th
were $l35, ,7G9, ,S72. Tie Treasury
holdings on May lst were $l2G,9So,
81, the two items aggrcgat;ng 1922, :
739, ,2l3. Tie estimate for May lst
vas 81 ,043, ,52l,l17, which LEFT sl20,-
600, 900 to be accounted for as held by
State and private banks, trust com
panies, and in safes, tills, pockets and
boards.
"a large amount Of gold is taken
out Of the country by travellers. One
tourist agency receives from travellers
from 500, 900 to $3.50, cooper year and
turns it'into the Bank Of England.
About S75 900 per year is melted at
Geneva, and in all net loss of from
100000 to $500, 900 is Indicated. Al
the latter figure the total in twenty
five years would be s2O0, 100000.
Inquiries made of 45 900 firms an d
individuals indicate a total consump-
tion of.coin by manufactures, jewelers.,
dentists, ETC., of 50. 500, 600 pcrTyear.
The official estimate Of the entire
stock Of gold in the country was ST.
053, ,518, 1892 at the begin ming of August
last.
Mr.. Hurley says that all the indica-
tions arc that the worlds output Of
gold will continue to increase for many
years to come, even over the vast
amounts that are being turned out at
the prcscnt.day. Not only, lie says,
are new processes saving gold that it
was impossible to save ten years ago,
but new gold camps are springing into
life and old silver mines are develop
ing into gold propositions as greater
depth is attained.
I've predict" he concluded, "that
"lthin the next twenty years Alaska
and the Northwest Territory will yield
over 81 900, ,O00, 900, and that by 1925
they will contain population of over
| ,0QO. .000.'
An impression pretty generally
prevails throughout the country tia.
most Of the public lands have been
taken up, but the annualrcport of the
commissioners Of the general land Office
shows that 917 ,133, $50 acres of Uncle
Sans farm still remain open to set.
tlemcnt, which is l49, III, ,7O2 acres
more Khan have been taken up since
the beginning of the Government. Be-
sides this, 15I, ,745, 1872 acres have been
Withdrawn from settlement and re-
served as park, for the cultivation
of forcsty and for other purposes.
Thcreonow remain unsurveyed co.,
554,9l5 acres. The biggest part of
this is in Alaska, where O,OO0,O 900
acres are open to settlement.
