GOLD PRODUCT AND HoARDINas

In the general discussion Of the gold
question, especially in view of the gold
production from the Rand in South
Africa, it is interesting to note the
gain in gold holdings Of the principal
European banks during the year. We
present (from the Commercial Sc Finan-
cial Chronicle of New York) state
mont of the gold holdings of those
banks on July 10, 1913, compared with
the like holdings on July IL, 1912,
These figures show net gain of con-
siderably over $l00,0o0,ooo in the gold
holdings OF those banks for the year,
as fnllnWs.

"Leaders" of the Progressive party

The Tribune Yesterday morning had

showing the great dependence OF the
European banks upon the gold produc.
tion of the Rand in South Africa. That
production has been interrupted by
great strike. But for the first six
months of the present year it amounted
to 500. .967, ,7S4.74. The amounts pro-
duced by months, expressed in fine
ounces of gold, were, for January,
7S9 800; February, 734,l22; March,
7oo,552; April, 7S4,o74; May. 794,s72;
June, approximately 797,s72: a total of
4,6ol PIG fine ounces of gold for the six
months. 1t is not likely. in view of
the labor strike. that the second six
months of 1913 will equal the product
Of the first six months If il had not
been for that strike. doubtless the gold

II is said that the European powers
will not recognize the reoceupation OF
Adrianople by the Turks. which is
probable enough; for so far as Tufkey
is concerned, the Losses she sustained
were pretty definitely fixed by the first
general peace conference. and that part
OF the business is not likely TO be re
opened. The thing that was not settled
and which caused the second war. was

great American market, to quote the
very words of the astute president OF

is more, Canada, while accepting and
gloating over her opportunity to send
across the line duty free the hundred

raw materials which we might use.
The mills of Vancouver are already

used to dress themselves in fantastic garb and

As late 1885 they held parades and made the
street hideous with their humping drums and
