Kitchener In Command In South Africa

Lord Roberts has handed over the
command of the British troops in
South Africa to Lord Kitchener. 1t is
asserted that the queen approves Lord
Kitchener's promotion to be lieutenant
general, with the rank of general
while in command in South Africa.
Despite some misgivings, hearty ap-
proval is generally expressed Of Lord
kitchener's appointment. 1t is felt
that If any one can clear up matters in
South Africa, he is the man; and it is
readily admitted that the task before
him, though OF different kind. is al
most us difficult as that which faced
Lord Roberts ten months ago, and is
calculated to give him the fullest scope
TO all of Kitchener's talents as an or
ganizer.

UNCLE SANS GOLD STOCK.

1t is Now the Largest He Has Ever Had
The largest stock of gold and bullion
ever held in the United States is now
accumulated in the treasury and IT.,
branches. The total has been rising
steadily during the whole of the pres.
ent year, and is now $475, los, 1896, or
about S76, 900, 900 greater than at the
close of 1899. This gold is not all the
direct property of the United States
but is held against outstanding gold
certificates. The amount of these, less
amount in the treasury and branches,
is $3.50, ,755, 500. All the remaining gold, -,
amounting to about S243, 1000, 900, be-
longs to the treasury, as part of the
reserve fund of S150,ooo, 900.
The influx of gold into the treasury
comes partly from the new gold from
the Klondille and other mines, but it's
retention is due to the pressure for
currency, which leads to the accept
ance of gold certificates and other
paper money in preference to coin.
The treasury recently has been ship
ping small notes in large quantities to
New Orleans and other points, upon
deposits of gold in the New York SUBJ
treasury by the New York reserve
agents of the Southern banks.
