New York, June S.-The so-called
ease" in the money market is to some
extent fictitious. 1t is true that there
is a superabundant surplus. but 1T is
also fact that bankers have rarely

collateral or more stony-hearted In
their treatment of applicants for cash.

of ghosts. They have nothing to fear
tangibly, yet they are nevertheless
shaky and disturbed in their minds,
dreading something they know not
what and unable to give any good rea-
sons for the vague apprehensions
gnawing at their souls.
In reality the country at large is still
in process of such rapid growth and
increase in wealth that surplus piles
up faster than attractive avenues Of
investment afford outlet. There is to-
day plethora of richness; literally an
embarrassment of plenty. Within the
last six months the great masses Of
our population have gone systematic
ally about the work of personal re-
trenchment in expenses of every sort.
That has cut into the volume of trade
and has resulted in the accumulation
of idle funds in every section of the
Union. There is nothing unhealthy in
the practice of economy, although for
the time being it may bring about an
uncomfortable season of contraction.
Accompanying this however, is a. check
to indiscriminate expansion and spec
ulation. That is a good thing and a
very healthy sign.

the present moment there is greater
activity in the mines than ever before
AS business in other industries suffers
restriction enterprise turns more Wig
orousy to gold mining. This is true
not only of America, but of every other
auriferous section of the habitabe
globe, not even excepting Australia
The adventurous spirit of the gold
hunters seems to be turning more spe-
officially now than at any other time
to placer mining and numerous pro-
| cesses for working dry placers are be-
ing tried out" Heretofore small sue
cess has attended efforts TO apply cleo
| tricity to the separation of gold, but
marked improvement in this direction
has taken place latterly, ard the
prophecy is heard that within the next
/ two or three years vast areas hitherto
unavoidable will be turning out enor-
NOUS quantities of the yellow metal. In
Alaska, British Columbia, United
! States and Mexico there are thousands
of millions of dollars lying undisturb-
ed in virgin dry placers. The produc-
ton of gold is going on now at a
rate which is initiating the money store
of the world with disturbing rapidity.
Reinforced by the production of tens Of
thousands of acres of dry placers the
rate of increase will be much greater
than II IS now. On the theory that
there cannot be too much of a good
thing humanity Is prepared to welcome
the widest possible expansion in The

not fail to be stimulating to the stock

Exported Gold owned at Home.

There is reason to believe that a
goodly proportion of the gold sent
abroad during the last six or seven
weeks Is still owned here, being loaned
for American account in European CEN
tiers, where interest rates are fnac-
tionally higher than at home. In
these days Of quick transportation of
gold and a transfer of credits TO diff
ferent parts Of the world through the
medium of bills of exchange, surplus
funds seek their level with the fiuidity
of water. Interest rates control and
fluctuations in the money market are
felt simultaneously in Berlin, Paris,
London and New York, the movement
being governed accordingly. The Unit
ed States has shifted within the last
two years from being heavily indebted
to Europe into the position of a credit
