STILL IT COMES
ENGLAND WORRIED

LONDON, Nov. 16.-Americans
engaged gold at the Bank of Eng.
land yesterday to the value of
ESQ, 900, or $3,900,000, for ship
ment to the United States today.
The continual drain of gold to
America has lead to considerable
uneasiness both in money and stock
circles. 1t is the general belief
that the rate of discount of the
Bank of England will be raised to
8 per cent on Monday next. AS
France refuses to ship gold to the
United States direct, and as the
present rate of per cent discount
desn't stop the Yankee raid, the
bankers see no other way to save
their gold than to put on pro-
hibitive bank rate. The total en-.
gagged for shipment is now $67,905,-

There was a gloom at police head

There are several members of the
Richmond police force who will keenly
feel the effects of the repeating of the
metropolitan police law, as it is taken
as foregone conclusion Governor
Hanly will sign the bill, but on the
other hand, there are several officers
who are secretly delighted that the
management of the department will

the office of chief of police the names
