Una isla "seca"

En- Tristan todo ell mundo esta empa
rentado: no hay mas que primes y pri
mas.
La isla, hoy colonia de Ia corona in.
glesa, Sc administra ella misma sin gas
tos sin burocracia.
Es una especie de falansterio. Guam
do un navio Sc acerca la isla-lo que
no sucede recuentemente-los colonies
Sc dedican a cambiar con la tripuls-
ci6n. A cambio de caza. de carneros
de legumbres frescas, los naturales de
Tristan reciben telas, cuero y guinea
llerfa.
Esta isla lejana no cuenta con un ser
vicio regular de comunicaciones, y algu-
mas veces los habitantes de Tristan sc
uevan hasta dos amos sin poder dsr nj
recibir noticias. EstO parece que nc
intranquiliza smucho a los colonos; des
pu6s de todo, ell correo no les hace gran
falta, va que la correspondence conner
cal no tiene entire eIlos mucha acep
taci6n.
Algunos afios antes dc la guerra los
hermanos Raller y Baty visitaron la
isla y encontraron sus habitantes muy
tranquilos y felices.
FL president" de la comunida6
era un italiano, marino de un barco
que habia naufragado en- las peligrosas
costas. De toda la tripulaci6n solo &
Sc salv6, fus muy bien acogido por
la colonia, donde no tard6 en- hacersc
apreciar.
Saba leer, escribir y hablar tres len
guas, era el interprete obigado cuan
do SO trataba de negociar con los ma
vios que pasaban.
La pequeha comunidad era, nor esta
6poca, verdaderamente feliz; vivien
do en- una especie de idilio lleno 6e Sc
renidad, que jamas turbaba nnguna que
rella.
Pero las cosas han cambiado. Y los
colonos de Tristan piensan dejar su Te-
baida. e.. porque ha sido invadida por
las ratas, venidas de no Sc sabe d6nde

La repdblica de Tristan de Acdnna
pues, pass por un periodic malo.
Esperamos que eIlos combatiran por
todos los medios la temible playa que

FL gObierno ingl6s les ayudara todo
10 que pueda, y es possible que toman-
do en6rgicas medidas puedan los habi-

Gold Reserve Of United States Shows
 Little Change Over Last Year; Holding
 By Reserve Banks Of War Paper Drops

shown in the amounts and classes of United States bonds held.
 Net deposits of the reserve banks show general downward tendency for the year, the December 30. total of 1,604.2 millions being 2469 mil lions below the corresponding total at the beginning of the year. Decreases in reserve and net deposits reflect ing reductions in demand deposits of member banks, especially during the latter part of the year.
 Federal reserve note circulation after the usual contraction at the be- ginning of the year, when a return flow of notes issued during the holi- day season occurs shows an almost uninterrupted expansion from the minimum amount of 2.S44. millions on January 23 to maximum of 3,404.9 millions on December 2S. The total of 3,344.7 millions on December 30 marks a reduction of 60.2 millions for the week, but an expansion of 345.7 millions from the beginning of Janu- ary, note expansion rather than growth of deposits accompanying the increase in the borrowings of member banks.
 Federal reserve banks note circu- lation shows a practically steady de- cline from 259 millions on January ? to IF millions on May 14 but since that date an increase to PIT millions on December 90 is noted.
 During the early part of the year the federal reserve banks lost gold, largely through export to South America and to the Orient and on March 26 total gold holdings were 1885 millions, marking reduction ot 12S millions from January 2.
 Since that time there has been an increase in gold. reserves, the total of 2,059.3 millions on December 50 being only 3.3 millions below the to- tai shown on January 2.

Coal Oil Johnny"
 Once Millionaire,
 Dies Of Pneumonia

OMAHA. Neb., Jan. 1.-John w. Steele. known widely in the east half a century ago as Coal Oil Johnny" reputed then to have spent comfor- table fortune when oil was discovered on his Pennsylvania land, died of pneumonia yesterday at Fort Crook Nebraska. where he was station agent for the Burlington Railroad
 Steele was born in Shakl9yvile. Penn. in 1S43. When young man he is said to have attracted consid- erable attention in New York by throwing away money to boys and men on the street apparently because he liked to see them scramble for it.. He came west 45 years ago and had been in the Burlington's employe for g years. Eight years ago Steele worked as truck man at Fort Crook but later became agent for the rail- road.
 His wife says that after the dis covery of oil on his Pennsylvania land years ago, the mnoey flowed in as royalty. They were married at at the time The publicity which the newspapers gave his newly acquired wealth and the manner in which he enjoyed spending it made him an ob l ject of interest wherever he went. | When he came west and the days of royalties were over he flatly re | fused to tell of his experiences and lregarded that part of his career as 8
 closed book. The stories about Goa jOn Johnny" never represented him as tgambling or making profligate use of his wealth, but rather as enjoying the sight of others getting what was so difficult to obtain

 one day. the story is that he stepped out of his box when black faced

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-Holdings by federal reserve banks of paper se- cured by government war obligations declined from nearly S1,500 100000 at the opening of the year to $1,14l,- 000,000 on December 31 said the an nual review issued tonight 0y the Federal Reserve board. At the end of the year." it added, "out of total of $2.719 100000 of discounted bills about 42 per cent was composed of paper secured by U. s. war obliga- tions."
 The gold reserve according to the review. shows little change at the end of the year as compared with the condition F months earlier.
 Although considerable gold was eX- ported to South America and to the Orient early in the year. it explained, gold shipments from England in anti cipation of the maturity of the Anglo French bonds on October 15. were responsible in measure for subse- Quent recovery, so that on December 30 the amount was only S.3 millions below the total shown on January 2.
 Increases in capitalization of exist ing member banks and accessions Of new members were responsible in part for an increase in the paidin capital of the federal reserve banks during the year from STA to 99.S millions. This Corresponded to an increase of over All. millions in capital and sur plus of member banks.
 Changes in the condition of the federal reserve banks during 1920. ac- cording to the review, reflect to a large extent the changes in the ere dit policy originated about the last of 1919.
 Preferential rates on paper secur- ed by liberty bonds and Victory notes, the review continued. were abrogated by some reserve banks and raised by others to a level more nearly approXi' mating the rate level for ordinary commercial paper In the case of paper secured by treasury certificates the rates adopted were in most cases identical with the higher coupon rates fixed by the government, thus holding out no inducement to the member banks to carry these securities among their own investments and use them as collateral for loans, at the federal reserve banks. but rather providing a stimulus to place them in the hands of ultimate investors. The results are seen in the gradual decrease O; the amounts of war paper held during the year by the reserve banks
 Early in the year the federal reserve banks raised their discount rates on commercial paper but the influence oi the higher rates is seen in retardine the progress of borrowings rather than in restricting them. In fact, to tai federal reserve bank holdings oi discounted bills on December 30 is 4S7,977 million larger than at the be ginning of the year.
 Holdings of bills purchased in op en market show an almost uninter rupted decline for the period under review. From total of STAG mil lions at the beginning of the year. : decline to 255.7 million on December 30 is shown, the decrease of 31S.! millions being due largely to the in creased demand for this class of bill: by savings banks, trust companies also corporate and individual inves tors. No appreciable changes ar'
