MONTREAL BANK GOLD MOVED BY STEAMSHIP $3,000,000 Shipment, Usually Transported by Rail for Speed, Comes Cheaper by Liner. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, January 1.—Gold ar- rivals at the port of New York Tues- day included a consignment of $3- 000,000 from the Bank of Montreal in Canada over a route believed to have been hitherto unused. The metal came from Halifax, Nova Scotia, on the liner, Ausonia, and was said to have taken only slightly longer time than shipment by rail, the usual route for Canadian gold movements. It was said the shipment by steamer was much cheaper than by rail. Ordinarily, the fastest means of transportation is utilized in gold shipments because of the loss of interest while in transit. The liner, El Salvador, arrived today from Cuba with a consignment of $1,- 650,000 in Sfld to_meet interest pay- ments on Cuban bonds. It was the first time Cuba has sent gold for such payments. out I'll be punished and dis- graced and thrown out of the best job 've ever had.
