Gold Coin And Bullion. European authorrta:es figured' that when the Balkan was began and there was drei d among the common people that a, general war might re- sult, nearly $350,000,000 in gold was •hoaided in three co•uirtries in sums ranging from a gold piece or two up to tens 'of tihioueands of dollars. Austria-Hungary was:oredited' with hiding away $150,000,000, Germany '$55,000,000," and France $130,000,- 000. This was money which had been traced into these countries just:be- feee the Balkan hostilities began and after war started. 'In addition to' this vast sum there Was an im- guessable quantity of gold already buried in -the ground. Russia is believed to have tens of thousands of hoarders of money. The sign of wealth wlould,moan the coming ofthe tax colleotor, and among the men who look poor aro owners of countless weight in gold. The great Inipe:rial war chest has behind it, if the signs mean any- thing, other sums' in little war ohests-gold which the Government might draw out if it offered lands for sale,, or bonds the people would trust, or opportunities in commerce heretofore denied them. England has its hidden hoards, no one knows how large or how many, but there is concealed in England nothing like hike amount that is hidden in continental Eu- rope, where foreign • armies have only to cross •a surveyed boundary line to raid their enemies,.

India. is the bottomless pit of the world's gold, In one year India im ported 8300,000,000, and there leas never. been a time, apparently, when India was not importing gold, silver, and precious jewels. ' In the temples of Indi•a'there are said to be $1,800,000,000 ip precious m:eital and precious stones. Indira has more fine pearls than all the rest of the world pat together. They have even •gold cannons there -cannons that weigh 280 pounds each. The tourists sees some of this gold ; if a yisitor should attend a function given by one of the princes of India he would see jewels whose value he could not esiliimete. Af- ghan, Mogul, . Tartar raiding through India, fatted snillions upon millions, but the troops did nob find it all. .'lit: 'the :'ground, : in places where none could find or would sus- pect, is the vast wealth which the natives of Indica bury, and keep buried. The Ameer of Bokhara, a Russian vassal in Central Asia, is said to have been accumulating a hoard amounting to $8;000,000 te year. In Egypt and :along•the north :shore of Africa, the Barbary Coast people have their hoards estimated b,y:"the millions.. The lost treasure of the Liens is estimated ort $800,000,000 i•n. gold. - In 'Ancient Veldts. Iii .the ruins of Carthage is a vault that holds the treasure of the vandal'G'eneacrie, which was not found when Garbliage finally .fell:.. The buried treasure of Carcassonne in southern France was put away when the . Huns and Slays ranged over Europe trying 'to exterminate the Latins, Alarlc-the Goth looted Rome and cached his treasure in Carcassonne tradition says, in a deep cave :and killed ibles ]lien who helped shim stow it away, and it has never been found, This 'trsa»stu'e was peat 'of it from Solomon's Temple, Titus having raided Jerusalem :and made away with the treasure`that Solomon had' gathered rip 'and whish was partof it loot ithat King David had cap ture.d in his great wars of conquest and - defence. There was the accu- mulation of :ten centuries .of profit in :the Temple ot Solomon. The loot of ancient Roque, the loot of Constantinople, of Calcutta•, 13onabay, Pekin, wwith ; the tre,asure sillies captured at sea, paid the price of capture. Thecae were raids on the treasure towns of Spanish America whlich leads the pirates weafllth,y. •But t:he'oapture of bullion, and the exaction of ransom failed to. compensate •the victors :from ,about the time of the Napoleonic wars. Fortunes in Jcw'els. Wars of conquest' follewecl wa.rs seeking loot. Nevertheless. the mo- dern wars are accompanied by op- p.or bunities of loot which :are hardly paralleled in ancient history. Thus the defeat of Trance resulted in 'h:e paym:e:nt to Germany of $1,000,000,- 000 after the wee: of 1870-a tsibnee ;payment hardly rivalled in ancient days. ' if France -and Russia should congtier•, Germany wild doub Hess' be compelled to :stagger under such an exaction of tribute as no ancient Caesar ever dreamed. If the hoerda of Europe could be tapped -if the hidden treasures of European cities should be tapped by invading armies -the possibilities of loot in jewels and precious metals are beyond compute. But all the loot possible would not compensate for the hundreds' of- thousands of ounces of.'gold which must be paid each day for army sustenance and equipment. In olden times wars paid for themselves, reckoning ,from, the viewpoint of the victors, Wars were then for loot. The ships of the con Melee returned from, across the seas with t•rea,sare-they even went to war keeled with -treasure for emergencies, as witness the Spanish Armada, whose gold 'is :still the dream of fortunees:eeker.. The war chests of Europe 'presup- posed to contain about 82,000,000,- 000 in :eoicl coin and bullion What possibilities of loot this indicates is ini some measure understandable when -oneconsiders that this means about 50,000 tons of „yellow metal - and no .m•e:nti•on is :nnyde of tore bush- els of diamonds, rubies. pearls .and gems also in peril. • POSSUMS Attempt to lalst;aptr.
