know why this Should be. It is figured
out that we have exported SAP 900, 600 more
of merchandise than we have imported
during the nine months ended with March,
and during the first quarter of 1900 the
excess was about sl4o.ooO090 in our favor.
Tirfs sort of thing has been going on for
years and of late Europe has been buying
ra ther than selling our securities. The.
London Statist says that we are now .in
investing country, and that we could
take large amounts of gold from Europe,
If we chose But the fact is that we are
sending gold abroad to supply European
needs. and the best part of it is that we
are amply able to do so. We are now
producing much gold on our own account
each year-somethins like $40, 900, 000-and
we have bountiful supply on hand,
enough for our purpose and enough to
spare.
The New York Journal of Commerce
makes the point that whatever causes
may be elimina ted-the gold is not needed
to settle any balance in our, international
trade, and it is not sent abroad from sny
apprehension of cheap money" in the
political sense-and hence there is no
dread and no feeling of uneasiness in
financial circles when a few lni'inns of
gold are sent to the other side. With
the trade balance largely in our favor and
with the gold standard fixed, gold exports
are mere incident of trade which at
tracts little attention.
The Journal of Commerce says that we
may regard the condition with equanimity
and satisfaction for that gold exports
must be attributed chiefly to the greater
demand for money in Europe than in this
country, and we are simply increasing
our credit balance across the Atlantic.
IF we can supply our domestic currency
needs it concludes, with paper and use
a part of our extremely large stock of
gold productivity. we are simply practic-
ing that economy in the use of precious
metals which accounts for the substEtu-
ton of credits for specie on SO large
scale in modern business In other
words, we are simply lending our gold
abroad

Walsh wanted money, and then

HUMAN ODDITY
DIES IN OHIO
Christian Sehlotterbeek Lived Slxtv.fve Years
With a Bone In His Heart,

| With Bone In His Heart,
In spite Of the fact that bone had
grown in his heart and that other bones
were growing in his lungs and liver
Christian Schlotterbeck Of Dayton Ohio,
lived to be 65 years old. He had been af-
flicted with heart disease for forty years,
and at times his heart would stop beat
ing for full minute. He died suddenly
in the course of one of these attacks.
The circumstances Of Schlotterbeck'
disease and death were such as to cause
Doctor May Morgan, woman physician,
TO determine upon an autopsy This was
held with the assistance of Doctors Mates
and Scott, and it was then that the dis
covery was made that Schlotterbeck had
bone in his heart.
The general condition of the heart was
most peculiar. The bone was not for
eign particle projected into the heart by
reason Of a fracture or anything like that
II was substance that had grown inside
the cavity and become ossified. 1t was
also found that one Of the ventricles or
posterior cavities of the heart was con-
nected with the right auricle in such
manner as to make one long cavity with.
out any division. A part of the bony or
Granulous substance had become ossified
and was as hard as stone. The lungs
and liver were also discovered to be af-
fected and the granulous or bony sub
stances were found in these organs as
well. A knife blade tapped on the for
eign substance produced a metallic sound.
How the patient lived with these con.
ditions prevailing is puzzling physicians,
The case is regarded as remarkable.
The deceased was well known business
man twenty-five years ago
