port of Gold in Purchase of
Foreign Securities.
A despatch f rom New York says
: --
Marked decrease in British buying of
bonds in the New York market ,is at-
tracting attention in connection with
the return of Great 'Britain to the
gold standard and the advance of ster-
ling exchange practically to par. The
general interpretation is that Great
Britain is effectively preventing the
export of capital, thougli no official
tneasures hi that direction have been
taken. The mere passing 01, the word
among British banking and stock eX-
change houses` that the Bank of Eng-
land frowns on foreign security pur-
chases, at the present stage of Brit-
ish financing, is sufficient to check
the outflow of money. "
With the British so recently re-
turned to the gold standard, the need
of large reserves of capital at home
is seen, both to fortify Great Britain
in the competition for foreign trade
and in the maintenance Of exchange,
It is pointed out that, in the piesent
etage, heavy British participation in
American seturities, necessitating the
selling of sterling, would increase the
"difficulties of 'the Bank of 'England in
maintaining the exchange market
without the use of its gold reserves.
The demand by London for securi-
ties here, particularly some issues of
foreign dollar beads, has not stopped
completely, hoviever, and bond "dealers
say that, it is not likely to" do so,
since there is no meata Of absolute
control over the international flow -of
capital, and such operations are en-
couraged by the pride spread in se-
ctrities here and abroad.

A despatch from London says
: -
Hundreds of Chinese aro dead and
millions dying from starvation, and
the population is resorting to canni-
balism in Kweichou- Province, „China,
according to a despatch to The Daily
Express.
The roads are covered with the dead
and dying, and families, struggling
forward to the towns, drop off one by
one from exhaustion. The leaves and
hark have been stripped from the
trees, and many are how living: en
grass and huMan flesh.
The foreign missionaries are doing .
their utmost, but, as the rice crop has
not been harvested, it is impossible to
relieve the entire districts, many parts
of which have been depopulated by the
fleeing natives.- The money of the
Provincial Treasury has been ex-
hausted. The famine area includes
sixty districts.
