GOLD AND SILVER LEFT
WITH u. S. AWAIT OWNER

WASHINGTON. June 16-More
than half century ago Uncle Sam
was handed three bags of gold worth
about six hundred dollars, and he is
still holding them; some thirty years
ago he was handed a bag of valuable
silver bullion and the owner has left
1t with him ever since.
In 1856 H. j. Peters brought $127S7
worth of gold bullion to the San
Francisco mint; in 1858 Joseph Baker
presented s333.27, and in 1863 j. M.
Souther handed over s156.96. Each
was given a receipt and told to come
back for a gold certificate as soon as
the government ascertained the value
of the bullion. They have never re-
turned In 1882 Thomas F Davis
brought 5000 ounces of silver bullion
to the New York assay office to be
made into fine silver bars and has not
been seen since.
