Gold from Denver Mint.

Colorado Springs.-Thousand OF
dollars in gold have been flowing into
Colorado Springs from the Denver
mint and the flood of yellow metal
will continue to pour in SO long as 1t
is needed to meet the payrolls of the
reduction mills at Colorado City and
the mines and mills in the Cripple
Creek district The following state
ment concerning conditions here has
been prepared for publication by the
Clearing House Association:
Much has been said in the papers
in regard to the efforts of the banks
Of New York and other cities in OBJ
tanning gold, but nothing has been said
in regard to what business men and
banks here have done.
I'VE understand upon the best au-
thority that, by an arrangement be-
tween the United States Reduction
Works and the Portland mill and one
of the banks of this city. about $780,
900 in gold has been received in this
city from the mint this week. These
shipments of gold will be continued
Indefinitely. This gold is not to be re-
tanned The arrangement is that it
shall be paid out to meet the payrolls
Of the mills at Colorado City and of
the mines and mills at Cripple Creek.
ITO show in what perfect harmony
the banks are working in this city and
also in Cripple Creek, this gold is to
be paid out for the mines payrolls re-

Gold POURING In Rapidly.

New York.-The German liner Kron
Prinzessin Cecilie was reported of
Fire Island at six o'clock Tuesday
morning, and soon after ten o'clock
had locked and was unloading 81,
100000 of the yellow metal, which will
go to strength the New York re
serves.
The new Cunard liner Lusitania will
follow closely In her wake with $lO.'
100000, and $14.000,000 more will fol
low during the remainder of the week
and early next week.
The additional Withdrawals from
the Bank of England for the United
States and $125,000 for Canada brings
up the total gold engagements on the
present movement to about $36,OO0,-
900.
The news that the Bank Of France
bought Tuesday $15,000,000 in sterling
bills on London was regarded here as
an event OF the first Importance, as
indicating that French financiers were
not only able, but willing to help Lon
don. and thus indirectly help America
by relieving the strain on the Bank
Of England caused by the heavy Am

GOVERNMENT FORESTER SOUNDS
NOTE OF WARNING AND URGES
REFRESHING.

Washington.-"In twenty years the
timber supply in the United States, on
government reserves and private hold
ings, at the present rate of cutting, will
be exhausted, although 1t is possible
that the growth Of that period might
extend the arrival of this time another
five years"
This is the announcement made by
Clifford Pinchot. the government for
ester, who has just returned from six
months inspection trip, on which he
travelled 10000 miles.
In sounding his warning Mr.. Pinchot
urged that the danger of the situation
should not be underestimated. He said
that the United States uses more tim
Der per capita than any other country,
and that every man, woman and child
would be effected. He decried the pol
Icy OF discounting the future of the
country by failure to protect the nat
ural resources and he advised every
one who has not already done so to

Memphis on this general subject.
About one-fifth OF the forest area Of
the country is in government reserves,
but Mr.. Pinchot called attention to the
fact that as privately owned timber
lands are better than the government
reserves, as general rule, the govern

timber supply.
The forest service will ask Congress
for more money and more men in or

the work of reforesting the denuded
timber lands. Mr.. Pinchot says, how

hope entertained is the Appalachian
forest, and an effort will be made to
protect this and promote the growth
there.

police powers of the state the forester
is endeavoring to protect the water
sheds and prevent private owners from
devastating these lands in such man.

along this line.
