HIGH PRICES AND
| THE GOLD SUPPLY
Over Production Bound to
Leave Effect.
DIRECTOR ROBERTS REPORT.
Great Gold Supply Stimulates In
dustry and In Consequence
Forces Up the Cost OF
Living.

Washington.-George E. Roberts, Ii
rector of the mint, predicts that the
production of gold will not materially
increase during the next 10 years.
The Importance of this prediction,
made in Mr.. Roberts annual report
for the fiscal year 1912, just obtained,
lies in its relation to the economic
law that over-production of gold tends
to increase prices.
1t is not probable, says Director
Roberts, that any harmful results will
come from slowing down In the rate
OF accumulation Of gold, for, he added,
it must be recognized that the growth
OF gold supplies during the past 20
years has been at an abnormally high
rate.
The United States has been particu
larly successful, Mr.. Roberts says, in
obtaining the holding a large share of
the new gold of the past II years, the
gains of the Treasury and national
banks from 1900 to 1912 aggregating
1926, 705,000 an increase OF more than
100 per cent.
The volume of trade and bank
credits, of private corporate and pub
lie indebtedness and the general level
of prices undoubtedly have all been
affected to some degree, the Director
says, by the engagements of bank re-
serves through the great production Of
gold in recent years and by the
stimulus thereby impaired to enter
prise and industry.

AN ULTIMATUM
FROM! AUSTRIA
King Nicholas is Given One
Week to Comply.
THE WAR is NEARING AN END.
Powers Have Practically Agreed With
Austria That Montenegro Shall
Not Keep scutari Even If
She Takes 1t.

London.-The developments of last
week appear to make the conclusion of
the Balkan War a matter of only a
few days. Turkey having no hopes of
obtaining more money, has entrusted
her interests to the good Offices of the
powers, and the allies have accepted
the powers offer of mediation.
The representatives of the powers
at Sofia handed the Bulgarian Premier
their schemes, embodying bases for
mediation. Their plan includes two
provisions to which the allies will like
ly object The demand for indemnity
is vetoed and the powers stipulate that
hostilities must cease when their pro-
posals are accepted.
1t appears improbable, however, that
the allies will refuse to settle on the
practically to a deadlock Fighting on
the Tchatalja lines has been indie
cisive. Adrianople, which the Bull
garians proposed to reduce to submis-
sion in few days, seems to be hold
ing out as strongly as ever after a
ave months siege, and messages from
there declare that the Turkish COM
mander has no thought of surrender.
Austria has sent a second note to
the Montenegrins, requesting that the
bombardment of Scutari be confined to
the forts and giving one week for King
Nicholas to comply with her other de-
mands
Russia is not blocking the Austrian
policy, and as the powers have agreed
that Montenegro shall not keep Scutari
even if she conQuers the garrison, but
that that city shall be incorporated in
the new Albanian state, King Nicholas
seems to have no alternative but to
make a virtue of a necessity.
If the allies attempt to withstand
the mandate of Europe they might
prove to be a hornets nest, but the
weak point in their armor is that their
finances are almost as near to an end
as Turkeys
