RUN ON ROUBLES IN SHANGHAI.
MANY COLLECTORS OF WORTHLESS CURRENCY.
When Mr. L. Kenake, of the U.S. Court for China, started in giving roubles away last Friday, it was brief and diverting pastime. But after he gave several thousand of them to a reporter of the North China Daily News who promptly put the event into a small story, it became a rather boring amount of work. Last week there was a run
on the rouble bank in Shanghai according to Mr. Kenake, who was kept busy all morning passing worthless bills across the counter. There are far too many people in Shanghai, according to Mr. Kenake, who want Russian roubles for some obscure reason. They may be bold ing them in the hope that there will be a reversal, of fortune. They may paper the walls with them,
or

He explained why he wanted them, saying that he was going to pay off a bet of ancient, standing to a Russian lady. The stock of roubles on top of the safe in the US. Court is almost completely demo- lished.

Currency Psychology: Mr. Keneke says that people are always willing to collect any kind of money whether it is worthless or not. The hardest kind of money to get rid of, "according to Mr. Kenake who has tried it out, is the twenty dollar'gold piece. For some psychological reason people inther dubius as to whether or not the golden eagle is a slug. You can alway throw them away, of course, and some persons will pick them up, but it is the hardest thing in the world to sell anyone a twenty. dollar gold piece for a dollar. There are not many twenty dollar gold pieces in America, now, but before the war no one used any thing else in California They passed all right in that state but every time one was offered in New York it had to be taken to a bank and be properly identified.
