FORTY MILLION
IN COLD
TREASURY OFFICIALS ESTIMATE
IMPORT MOVEMENT FROM
EUROPE.

Washington, D. c., July 1.-THE
belief is expressed by treasury Off
cials that the import movement Of gold
from Europe will approximate possibly
$40, 100000 by the Christmas season.
During the last fiscal year the United
States was drained Of coin and bullion
to the extent of more than $50,000.000.
1t was not thought by the government
experts that the homeward flow Of
gold would begin so early, but that it
would follow ordinary trade condi-
tions later in the season.
1t has been the observation Of the
treasury experts that foreign continen-
tai banks gradually have been aiming
to strengthen their gold reserves,
which probably accounts for the in
quiries for the precious metal at Lon
don. A good deal of the gold that went
out Of the country was due to natural
trade operations. Then large amount
was shipped to the Argentine republic.
That country negotiated big loan in
London some time ago, and much of
the gold coin was withdrawn from
New York because the foreign houses
making the loan could secure better
terms here.
In the last fiscal veae there was a
net loss by the United States in gold
coin Of $42,612,692. The total loss Of
coin by export and from use in the arts
was $S6,428,239, which, however, was
offset by net coinage of $43,815,547.
Imports of gold bullion from July to
April were $18,247,686 and exports for
the same period $27, 7,627,782.

date to succeed Governor Hughes on
the bench when Hughes is made chief
justice.
The death Of Chief Justice Fuller
leaves the Democratic party repre-
sented by only two members, Assocl-
ate Jus lice White Of Louisiana and
Associate Justice Lurton Of Tennes-
see. President Taft realizes, it is i'm
portant not to make the bench too one
sided politically.
1t would not be surprising should he
finally select either John j. Vertrees,
who was Ballinger's counsel during
the congressional inquiry into the Pin
chot charges, or, former Judge Alton
B. Parker of New York, who was the
Democratic candidate for the presi-
dency in 1904 George Gray of Della
ware would undoubtedly be named II
he were younger. Other men mention
ed for the bench include: George w.

CLAIMED TO BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR RECENT LYNcHlNG, PEND
ING INVESTIGATION.

Columbus, O., July 11.-Governor
Harmon at noon suspended Mayor
Atherton of Newark for thirty days,
pending an investigation of his actions
during the rioting Friday night which
resulted in the lynching Of Carl Eth
erington. The governor also suspended
Sheriff Linke as soon as he received
the charges.
Charges against Sheriff Linke for
failure to stop the lynching of Detec-
tive Etherington Friday night were
made today, the papers being signed
by Common Pleas Judge Seward and
other prominent people of Newark.
The charges were Immediately for
warded to Gov. Harmon. A special
grand jury will meet next Monday TO
investigate the lynching.
The sudden arrival Of Gov. Har-
mon late yesterday afternoon wrought
CONSERVATION among the city and
county off icials who are threatened
with impeachment as result OF Fri
day nights lynching.
Governor Harmon, Adjt. Gen. Chas.
C. Weybrecht, Sec. C. w. Long and
Lieut.. Ben Chamberlain of the COVER
nor's staff arrived at the county jail
in an automobile at 3:15. Their arrival
was absolutely unheralded and the Off
cials were taken completely by sur
prise. The governor demanded to be
taken over the battered Jail and for
thirty minutes he and his staff ex-
amined the structure minutely, Sheriff
VIM. Linke explaining in detail every
step of the mob. The governor person
ally tested bars and examined locks,
taking frequent notes.
Following the survey he ordered
Sheriff Linke to summon Prosecuting
Attorney Phil B. Smythe and Mayor
Herbert Atherton. On their arrival the
party held a star chanAbeI sesstca
lasting one hour and thirty minutes.
The governor and party left immedi-
ately for Columbus.
Statement from Columbus.
IT will have to take time to con-
slider this matter more thoroughly and
any comment have to make will be
given from the governors office in Co
lumbus," was hi, only statement.
Sheriff Linke and Mayor Atherton
reluctantly discussed the meeting.
"The governor questioned me as to
why ! did not stop the mob by firing
If necessary" Linke said. Y
II told him that was inexperienced
in mob procedure and did not realize
the seriousness of the situation until
after the door had been battered
down. then looked out and saw fac
ing me 500 guns In addition there
were dozens of women and children in
the Jail court yard. Had ordered the
boys to fire into the yard the slaughter
would have been frightful, and my
family. as we'll as myself and deputies,
would have been murdered. He asked
me why l did not spirit the boy away
in the afternoon. I told him I did not
realize the danger then. He asked
many other questions, but answered

ENGINEER FOILS
TRAIN ROBBERS
.THWARTs ATTEMPT TO HOLD UP
FLYER IN MISSOURI BY
DARING RUsE.

the part of the engineer prevented
three youthful and apparently mex

early yesterday morning. Three men
were arrested yesterday afternoon as
suspects and were released last night
after investigation. The police are
searching for three others who are
said to have entered the city. 1t was
3 o'clock before news of the at
tempted hold up reached the city and
detectives were imm mediately assigned
to the case.
Ruse Is Successful.
Engineer Quinn, through ruse, pre-
vented the baggage car and passenger
coaches from being looted. The ban
dts compelled the engineer and fire.
man, at the point of revolvers, to de-
scend from the cab and 60 with them
to the baggage car to assist them in
uncoupling 1t. While tinkering about
the coupling the engineer and firemen
in the darkness managed to glide away
from the bandits. The two started on
a run for the cab The bandits soon
became aware that the crew was dash
ing for the cab and opened rain OF
fire.
The engineer and fireman. unde-
tered, ran faster. Springing into the
cab, the engineer threw the throttle
wide open and the train leaped for
ward Five miles further on, at
Spanish Lake, Quinn telephoned o. G.
Hill, yardmaster of the st. Louis, Keo-
kuk and Northwestern in st. Louis,
and told him of the robbery.
