dreaming "So tho house kept on moving
Another policeman happened along. The
first cop pointed to the moving house.
"Do you see tha same thing that I dor
he nsVted
flee. It's a house moving." replied the
second blttecoat
They pursued the house and caught It
Then they discovered Ita motive power. It.
or he. was a man He said his name waa
Mike I,utt.
"Where did you awlpa the house?" asked
one of the cops.
"I didn't swipe It." said Mike. "It'a part
of a garbage "
'What do you mean by a garbage?"
queried the cops.
"A place whero they keep buxs wagons,
ortmlbllea."
Then they understood.
"The blamed thing collapsed," said Mike,
"and I found enough of It hanging together
to make n lltlo bunk. It's light and I carry
It with inc. 'cause It's light and It keeps the
wind off me fer I ain't got no overcoat"
Mlko admitted that he obtained hla house

pulled In. Ilut sprinkled among tho crowd
wero a number of plain clothes, men. who
kept sightseers nt a distance and took no
chai.ces.
The bullion came direct from Ottawa.
Can., by way of New York. U'waa shipped
to Canada two years ago by the Allies, who.
It Is said, foresaw the aubmarlne activities
and took this means of planting a nestegg
across the sea.
The metal Is owned by J. P. Morgan & Co.
which concern received the gold from the
All es In payment for munitions and other
war supplies shipped from this country.
In exchange for the bullion Morgan & Co.
Will receive 110,000.000 In cash.
Ten wagons were waiting at Broad Street
Station when tho gold arrived. It came
In ulrongly built boxes, twenty-five bricks
to a box. Twenly-flve boxes, each contain
ing 1(0,000 worth of gold, wero placed on
each wagon.
Cuards, armed with Winchesters, sat at
the front and rear of each wagon as they
proceeded slowly up Sixteenth street to the
United States Mlna at Sixteenth and Spring
Harden streets. Many persons thronged me
sidewalks and watched the wagons en route.
At tho Slxteinth street vntrance to tho

nrrlved they wero quickly unloaded by nn
extra force of men.

lars' worth a day
It was learned this afternoon that since
last May tho United States mint has re
ceived 493.000.000 In bullion for Morgan &
Co. to bo weighed here. . -
The mint In Philadelphia was chosen be
cause there are no moro facilities In the
assay olllce In New York for handling It.
The bullion was piling up In all directions

The price of pure twenty-four karat gold
at present Is 122.83 an ounce Superin
