MILLIONS GOLD
 FUR YANKEES
 NOW STRANDED
Armored Cruiser Tennes- see Leaves New York Carrying Many Millions to Thousands of Ameri- cans Now i'll Europe
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcH1

NEW YORK, August 6.-The arm ored cruiser Tennessee left port to- day carrying millions in gold to the thousands of Americans stranded in Europe
 All day long the vaults of the sub 2 treasury and banks here gave up the precious metal consigned to the relief of those whom the United States government seeks to aid.
 Revenue cutters piled back and forth between the Tennessee swinging with the tide off Tompkinsville, and the foot of Wall street. When the cruiser nosed out toward sea in the darkness she had aboard about S6.OO0,OO0 in gold: sSO0O,000 from the Bankers Trust company, $2, 750,- 900 appropriated by congress, and about $90O,O00 entrusted to the pay masters care by personal friends of individuals abroad. Of the latter sum, nearly $100.O00 was received to- day, representing ninety-thfee de- posits.
 More such funds are expected to be placed with the treasury authori- ties here. It is regarded as likely that a second shipment of gold will he sent, probably on the cruiser North Carolina.
 The Tennessees gold goes as a bulk lot of government money.
 Individual depositors' names were not mentioned, but delivery of mon ey to individual drawers who have orders from their American shippers will be made. This plan, directed by . the war department. it is believed ir financial circles here, is to prevent any question as to American viola ton of neutrality in carrying individ- ual deposits abroad.
 The gold is insured against marine risk. The rate was not announced. ~D-
