Vast Horde of Gold Goes Every
Year to India, and Becomes Lost
to the Commerce of the World

and other European Injuries; but she
wanted gold Another letter said:
The last Maharajah of Burgwan had
accumulated a treasure of 20,00o000
rupees In gold coins. The English
government after his death induced
| is widow and mother to exchange the
old for public securities, but the ma
i've regarded this as nothing less than
IN act Of violence"
OF course there has been In recent
years some modification of these Pc
tuliar habits of the Indian natives.
Nevertheless. a comparatively insig-
nificant portion of the gold coins i'm
ported into India passes into circula-
ton. In the last annual report of r
W. Gillian, controller-general and head
commissioner of paper currency for
India, 1t is shown that the receipts of
gold at postoffices in the fiscal year
ended March 81, 1907. amounted to
6 $4,000, rose to G1,35S,000 in 1908
and fell to C $4,000 in 1911. The re-
ceipts Of the railways were G1,045,000
in 1908 and only 9597,O 900 in 1911. Mr.
Gillian adds this comment: The infer
ence appears to be unfavorable. Ii
sovereigns have established themselves
ia the currency, the effect should be
! cumulative. Year after year certain
amount of gold has been passed out
| into circulation, and if 1t stayed there
we should expect progression in the
| figures, but of such progression there
| s no trace If then it is the case thai
/. is not as a medium of exchange that
sovereigns have proved their super
ority or established themselves The
question is what becomes of them. The
alternatives are melting and hoard
ing" He adds further that there arr
very distinct differences of taste in thu
matter of gold to be used for orna
ments in different parts of the coun
try The sovereign is very popular TO
the purpose in Bengal and in Madras
while in the United Provinces and tn
Puniab the pure metal is preferred
In the report of the United State
mint for 1898, there is a compilation
Of the net imports of gold into Brtis
India, together with the amount whic
was received into the mint. The latte
was a small part Of the total, as wi
be seen by the following table, the fig

The remarkable magnitude of the
movement of gold into India in recent
years may be indicated from compila-
tons of the last 90 years. The writer
has reduced the rupee to United States
currency on the basis Of 0.3 ~ 1880 per
rupees. Dividing the last two decades
into periods of five fiscal years each, 1t
will be found that the net imports of
gold into British India have been as
follows: From 1891 to 1895, both years
inclusive, $2,933,34S 1S96-1900 $780,
25O,S34; 1901 -O5, $1S2,947,369; 1906-1O,
1920, 4S0,397. In the fiscal year ended
March 81, 1911, the net gold imports
were $77.760,063, compared with $7O,-
279, 1913 in 1910. The net imports for
1912 were approximately $133,000,000.
At the rate of imports of the last three
years it will be seen that the absorp-
I q
ton has been at an average which
would make the amount for the five
years from 1911 to 1915 about $685.
900, 900, compared with 1920, $50, 397 in
the five years ended with 1910.
In other words, India's net absorp-
ton of gold annually is equal to about
half the entire yearly production of the
great Transvaal fields, which is, rough
lily, $i5O00000O If we take the esti-
mate of the worlds Industrial con-
sumption (say $125,OOO.OOO, based on
the recent rate Of growth) out of the
worlds gold output of $470,00O,000
ESTIMATED for 1922 we have left
$345, 900, 900, so that Indias imports ag-
gregate nearly % per cent of the an
nual supply left after commercial pur-
chases. 1t would doubtless be safe to
estimate the net hording Of Egypt at
SIS, 100000 a year, SO that $9O,0OO,O0O
gold annually disappears from western
control, or 20 per cent of the amount
remaining after industrial needs have
been provided for And the move
ment to the East promises to be rec
ord one in the calendar year 1912 or

THE DIssoLyING HEROINE

BY Harvey Peake in Judges Library.
The writer of best sellers was busily
engaged upon his new story, but, before
he had covered more than 10 chapters. he
had allowed his heroine to disappear, bit
by bit as completely as If she had never
existed. It was impossible for him to pro-
coed without heroine, so he was obliged
to begin all over again. And this Is how
his carelessness brought about her dis
migration:
In chapter / he caused her hair to fall
from her temples in a glittering, golden
shower.
In chapter he permitted her color to
flee.
In chapter 8 he made her drop her eyes.
In chapter he Inadvertently let her lips
fall apart in horror.
In chapter he made a great slip that
resulted in the falling of her whole coun-
tenance.
In chapter he had his mind SO firmly
fixed on his forthcoming royalties that
he forgot to watch her, and, while he was
thus dreaming. she threw out her hands.
In chapter he very carelessly-for a
man of his cxperience-let her feet sink
into the moist ground.
In chapter he felt that an artistic point
might be made by letting her voice drown
in tears.
In chapter he blocked the story effec-
lively by allowing her body to sway and
fall to the floor in a crumpled mass.
In chapter 10 there was nothing left but
her heart. so he broke that.

"The Senate. amendment" says the
New York Tribune, '1engthens the
Presidents term from four years to
six years. IN six years President
would have much better chance to
develop his policies, free from the en-
tanglements of an ambition to succeed
himself. He would not be under pres
sure to lower his ideals in order to fit
the exigencies of an approaching Sec
ond campaign, and would be absolved
from all suspicion of using the federal
patronage in his own interest. The
country is weary of the sort of poll
tics which has been dinned in It's ears
for the last four months. 1t would
welcome, we think, a change to sys-
tenn under which President would
be exempted from the necessity of
proving that his first term was salts
factory by seeking and obtaining a
second one."

Automobiles in the Street

The ground floors of office build
ings in this city will no longer bristle
after the manner of porcupines with
automobiles. No large city permits
the blocking up of streets in this
manner, and Birmingham's office
buildings will soon be relieved of all
unattended vehicles. They can stay
in front of a building 'for short
time only" to use Chief Bodeker's
own phrase. Heretofore they have
been left in our busiest streets all day
unattended, and this is to be stopped
on the ground that street cannot be
INSTRUCTED all day long by anything.
The new order will cause some in
convenience in office buildings, but
the convenience of the many in the
street will be increased, and it is the
many rather than the few that police
men and even commissioners are sup
posed to consider first.

Bond Issue for County Buildings

The board of revenue has unani-
nously decided to ask the voters of
the county to pass upon an issue of
$1,100,000 in bonds for the erection
of county buildings. The election is
to take place on August IL next. The
proposed bonds are to bear interest at
the rate Of Az per cent and are to
run 80 years.
The Hillman hospital extension is
included in the plans, and so is new
courthouse at Bessemer, as well as a
History courthouse and Jail on the
site of the old rock structure on
Twenty-first street.
Everything is overcrowded in a
county rapidly increasing in popula-
ton. The hospital, the Jail and the
two courthouses are all outgrown.
Some of them are insanitary. The
Jail has been condemned by the state
inspector and the courthouse did not
escape severe criticism. Some remedy
must be found, and every qualified
voter should consider carefully the
plans submitted by the board of rev.
enue and vote his convictions in Au-
gust. The resolutions adopted by the
board of revenue present the facts as
they have been officially ascertained.

The origin of Tuxedo

II have always thought that Tuxedo
was a pretty name. but 1T did not occur
to me that it had any known origin
until l read articles in the New York
Sun about it,, said an old citizen. 1.-THE
latest contribution regarding the deriva-
ton and meaning of the word is fur
nished by E. NJ. Ruttenber of Newburgh,
N. Y, a recognized authority on Indian
names. That gentleman says
- Tuxedo now familiar name. is
a corruption of "P'tuck-sepo," meaning
"a crooked river or creek Its equiva-
lent is "P'tuck-hanne' Len. Eng. Dic),
"a bend in the river winding in the
creek or river" "a bend In a river" The
earliest form of the original appears in
1884 Tuxcito in 176S. Tuxetough.- Tug
seto, Duckcedar, Ducksder etc, are
later. Zeisberger wrote "P duk." from
which probably ''Duckcedar' came. The
name seems to have been that of bend
in the river at some point in the vicinity
of Tuxedo Pond to which 1t was ex-
tended from a certain bend or bends in
the, stream. A modern Interpretation
from "P'tuksit.' round foot" Is of no
merit except in its first word. 1t was
the metaphorical name among the Della
wares of the wolf. 1t would be a mis-
homer applied to either river or pond.
"Sepo" is generic for a long river !"

WHO GETS THE CANnYf

From the New York Times.
That eternal question as to what privi-
leges does man buy along with a
theatre seat, Is capable of variations.
In the middle of an orchestra row
sat a woman with an appetite for can
dy. With 10 cents she opened the can
dy box on the seat in front of her and
ate half a dozen chocolates. The first
box on her right was emptied next,
thens as the woman's appetite for
sweets was still unappeased she sought
the contents of the box on the left.
That seat was occupied by a determ-
ined looking man.
Said the woman:
do you mind If I drop in a dime
and get the candy out of that box?"
He said he did
why" said she. you are not eat
ing It."
But 1 may want 1t before I leave"
said he, "and / don't intend to sign my
right away When 1 bought this seat
also bought the privilege of eating
tho candy if want to. Maybe l don't
want it, but the candy is mine so long
as l sit here and nobody else has any
right to it,"
Six chocolate waters having thus
been raised to a moral issue, the wom-
an appealed to the usher.
Not that l want the chocolates" she
said, but because 1 want to know
what is what To whom does that cam
dy belong, him or the house?"
The usher said he would give 1t up.
So did everybody else appealed to give
it up, except the man with the candy.
He sat tight.

Judge Parker,s KEYNOTE Speech

Judge Parker's Keynote Speech
The contest over the selection of a
temporary chairman of the democratic
convention at Baltimore Tuesday was
earnest, and it was settled in Judge
Parker's favor by vote of $40 to
$40. The conclusion was accepted by
all and harmony at once ruled SUI
preme.
Judge Parker's speech was admir-
able throughout. At the outset he
graphically presented picture of the
Chicago Bedlam. He declared the
tradition against third term insuffi-
cient. He advocated constitutional
provision limiting individual ambition
to a single term, and he gave express
sion on this subject of democratic
sentiment.
The better part of his excellent adj
dress related, however, to the tariff
and to the widespread corruption it
creates. Scarcely any one has pre-
sented more lucidly and comprehen-
sively the bargain that is known to
exist between the tariff beneficiaries
and the republican party. In return
for high rates the former agrees to
furnish big slush funds, and these
funds together with extraordinary
profits are taken almost wholly from
domestic consumers. No one has in
so few words told the story of the
tariff formation of trusts and the
milking of home consumers until the
cost of living has become indeed a
serious problem in nine households
out of every ten. Home competition
has to a large extent been abolished
by the great combines lodged behind
the Chinese tariff wall.
And when Judge Parker mentioned
"the sagacious and intrepid demo-
cratic leadership" under which the
free list, wool, cotton, metals, chemi-
calls. sugar and excise bills have been
passed in the House, he paid great
compliment to Oscar Underwood. He
demanded a revision of the tariff to
a revenue basis, and this demand
sanctioned and approved by all the
delegates should logically be followed
by the elevation of the leader who
planned the bills mentioned to the
leadership of the party in the COM
ing campaign.

TICKET SELLERS TALK

From the New York Telegram
There was little lull in the afternoon
crowds pouring into the big outdoor re-
sort not far from the city. The girl in
the ticket sellers booth heaved a sign
of relief.

in the adjoining booth, Pm hungry. Got

Fate of the Tariff Bills

No progressive would accept run
ming mate nominated on the Taft
ticket Many were invited, but no
one would accept the proffered place,
and this enabled Boss Barnes to secure
the denomination of Sherman, who
outdoes even Joe Cannon as protec-
zionist and reactionary.
The ticket as it stands represents
reaction at its worst, and the only
hope of success consists in gathering
an unexampled fund to put the ticket
Through in such states as New York,
Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and the
middle west.
The tail went with the hide and
The reactionary bosses stand trium-
phant so far as the regular ticket is
concerned. Protection is demanded
even to the extent of manufacturers
profits, and now the query is, what
will the progressive senators in Con-
gress do? This question will perhaps
be decided next week. Senators Clapp,
Bristow, LaFollette, Kenyon, Poin-
dexter, Bourne, Cummins, Works and
Borah are the balance of power in the
Senate, and the fate of all the House
tariff bills is in their hands. Will they
send them up to the reaction candi-
date for reelection for his signature?
This is the question of next week.
