GOLD MARKET URGED

The January bulletin of the FEEDER
al Reserve Board which has just been
completed says the restoration Of a
free gold market under proper condi-
tons at as early date as may be
feasible is strongly to be desired.
"A large absolute supply of gold"
he bulletin says. docs not appear to
be necessary to the successful main
tenance of TIE gold standard of coun-
Try occupies the position Of banking
creditor holding a large volume Of for.
eign bills and has an efficient bank
ing system.
"In the United states today both gold
and gold certificates have largely dis
appeared from circulation and the re-
naming currency in the hands Of the
peopie now consists largely Of Federal
Reserve notes, National bank notes
and Federal Reserve Bank notes"
The existence Of generally lnfat-
ed edition of credit and prices thru
nut the world again is noted and at
tentlon is called little change in the
nr;ce level. Efforts Of business men to
stabalize prices can only temporarily
have the effect Of tending to hold
-r;ces 10 to their present level. A re-
turn toward the old level Of prices
will occur when normal industrial
conditions and the free international
movement Of the precious metals
have been re-established.

whose health has been for some time
such as to necessitate hospital atten-

During the lifetime Of Mrs. Brumidi,
she informed Executor Schwartz that
her husbands paintings, sketches, etc,
were in storage somewhere, but had
no idea as to just where
X X
After endless searching among all
the old warehouses of the city and
diligently inquiring among all of the
old settlers whom he imagined might
have been familiar with the affairs
of the Brumidi family, Mr.. Schwartz
went into the National Savings and
Trust Company, at the corner of 18th
street and New York avenue, where
he entered into a oasuai conversation
with his friend, j. NJ. Boteler, in
charge Of the vault and safe deposit
departments Of that institution. After
they had discussed finances, politics.

proach of Thanksgiving. Mr. Schwartz,
apropos of nothing. remarked that he
wished he could locate those Brumidi

painting found was that Of an exact
duplicate of the great painting in the
dome of the Capitol. 1t is altogether
probable that the artist painted this
picture first and then used 1t as a
model during the years he worked in
the dome. 1t is in a splendid state
of preservation.
Two large portraits Of Brumidi's
American wife Che was twice mar
ried before leaving italy,, in heavy
gold frames, were found among the
other pictures in the first box that
was opened. She was evidently a
very beautiful woman.
X X
A painting Of George Washington,
presumably copied by Brumidi from
the celebrated Gilbert Stuart paint
ing is in the collection. there is also
one of Benjamin Franklin, after Ben
jamin West, beautifully embellished
in gold frame.
Many of the pictures are undoubt-
eddy the original studies of paintings
later placed in various parts Of the
Capitol.

boxes. Banker Boteler's eyes bulged
and. waving his hands in the air, he
said: THANK goodness, the mystery is
going TO be solved at last, and we will
find out what on earth is in those
two big boxes that have been in our
vaults for the last thirty years, and
which have accumulated storage
charges of almost $30O">
Securing an ord n from the court to
open the boxes, Mr.. Schwartz invited
DIR. William Henry Holmes the well
known artist, who is the head of the
National Gallery of Art; j. G. Lang
don. landscape architect and city
planner. in charge of the develop
ment of Washington's park system:
Charles f. Farman, custodian of the
works of art at the Capitol; ]. M.
Boteler of the National Savings and
Trust Company, John c. Fitzpatrick
of the manuscript division of the
Library of Congress, and the writer to
witness the opening of the mysterious
and long mislaid boxes reposing in the
deepest vaults far below the street.
The boxes were SO securely fastened
together with screws and nails that
1t required the entire colored jani-
torial force Of the bank half an hour
to get them open. The packing was
evidently done by Brumdi himself,
because they were arranged so ex-
pert!y as to sustain no damage what

ture of a mountain scene. In general
style and coloring it is decidedly
similar to the panels on the first floor
Of the Capitol This would indicate
that Brumidi was the man who paint
ed these panels. 1t has heretofore,
according to Mr.. Fairman, not been
known that Brumidi painted any
panels on that floor.
Some Of the other pictures may be
described as follows: st. Patrick"
Child and Grapes" "The Reaper"
"Adoraton of the Wise Men," "Women
and Child" THE Five Senses" Char
lot Cupid Asleep" and Madonna"
The only bank officer who was in
service when the boxes were put in
storage in 1889 was c. r. Nyman, who
unfortunately died in July, 1918. Mr..
Boteler says Mr. Nyman treated the
boxes tenderly during the twenty
nine years he had charge of them,
and often expressed the hope that
some one would turn up some day
and claim them so that he could learn
just what it was he had been custo-
dian of for so many years.

of the pictures has been determined
