THREE BAGS OF GOLD
AWAIT THEIR OWNERS
U. S. Has Kept the Bullion Fifty
Years and Knows Not What
to Do with It.

Washington. June 15.-More than half
a century ago Uncle Sam was handed
three bags Of gold worth about $500, and
he IS still holding them; some thirty years
ago he was handed a bag Of silver bullion,
and the owner has left It with him ever
since.
This gold and silver has been great
nuisance to the accounting officers Of the
federal government who do not know
what 20 do with II. and the Controller OF
the Treasury has just decided IL is a
problem for Congress. In an effort TO
clear the accounts, George T. Roberts,
Director Of the Mint, appealed 10 Con-
troller Downey 10 know II he could cover
it into the Treasury 10 the credit OF the
men who presented IL. The Controller
holds such a course would require an act
Of Congress.
In 1856 II. J. Peters brought 1927 81
worth OF gold bullion 20 the San Fran
cisco Mint: in 1853 Joseph Baker pre-
scented 1893 27, and in 1863 J. NJ. Souther
handed over S15G SO. Each was given a
recent and told TO come back for gold
certificate as soon as the government as
certained the value OF the bullion. They
have never returned.
