U.;no orsenb.cks in caIifornia.

San Francisco.-As a result OF the
European war. California Is becomins
familiar with greenbacks. BY general
agreemnt the banks In San Francisco
and other cities OF the state are pass
ing out paper money instead OF the
familiar gold coins and there Is now
said to be more currency in circulation
here than ever before.
According to bankers. gold Is far
from scarce in the city and IL is be-
Ing withheld from the public mainly
for the purpose of discouraging the
tendency of many persons during war
times to hoard the yellow metal.
Old Californians are wondering
whether the change will mean the
passing of a sentiment which for many
years has kept California the one state
in the union commonly to employ gold
coin. So strong has been the gold
habit and 70 infrequent the use of the
greenbacks in California that currency
always has been regarded with more or
less suspicion and in some remote
communities strangers with only cur
rency in their pocketbooks are as badly
of as tourists now in Europe Will,
only travellers checks. About $780,
900 worth of the new national bank
notes have been sent to the sub-treas-
ury here and 1t was said that the banks
had taken about 100000 worth of
them.
