DOODLE MONEY.
Advantage OF Paper Over Gold Shown
In San Francisco.

Here Is new phase OF the paper
| money question:
The banks OF San Francisco had for
a year Or more been mystified by an
unprecedented demand for currency.
The people OF the Golden State have
always eschewed Uncle Sans notes.
they have insisted on the heft ana
ring Of coin. So when calls cana on
the cashiers for thousands and thous
ands in bills the demand was without
explanation.
The currency that reaches the Paci.
fic Coast is such az travellers take
out with them from the Eastern
States. The banks make a practice
of gathering 1t up for the aecommo-
dation OF customers about to travel
or who wish to forward remittances
in the mails. When this great demand
suddenly arose cashiers were puzzled
to meet Il.
The revelations made before San
Franciseos Grand Jury as result
OF the work OF Francis j. Iieney anu
Secret Service Agent William J.
Burns have furnished the solution OF
the mystery.
Bring me the money In currency"
was the command of Boss Ruef to the
bride givers.
The grating to which Ruef has con-
fessed amounted to about a. 600. e0D
within a year, and In the light OF his
testimony the drain on the banks is
easily explained. Raef invariably in
sisted that the Doodle money should
be paper.
There would be no jiugIing. no me
tallic sound to betray: be handed
very large sums. much larger than
a man could carry in gold. The boss
was cautious itself.
Mayor Eugene E. Schmitz. the eoh-
victed pal OF Ruef. did not seem 10
the virtues OF paper money
for the silent work OF the hoodler.
Under his bed in his Fillmore street
home he had box constructed IN the
floor In which to conceal his wealth.
The Mayor vacated the Fillmore
street house for the mansion that he
built In Vallejo street In the rush OF
his activities he neglected TO remove
the box. Detective Burns found 1t
there.
The Supervisors In their confessions
al declared that the money came 70
hem In heaps OF small paper money.
