Transvaal Gold Output. The March.retarn of gold oat pat in the Transvaal issued by the Chamber of Mines shows on improvement on the figures for the preceding month. As a matter of fact, the figures are the best recorded since the month of May, 1913. The total cutpot of fine gold during March was 753,935 ounces, valued at £3,202,514 which comparea with 676,22) anaces, valued at £2,872,100 produced during February. In the upith of March Jast year the cutput amounted to 686,801 ounces, valued at £2,917, 346. The figures show a rather Jorge incredao on the February total, but it should be noted that there were three working days less in that mon'b. But taking the daily average output, it was only slightly higher in March than in February, being returned a: 24,320 ounces for the former and 24,151 ounces for the latter month. But the figures are; .decidedly better than for the first three months of 1914, as they sbow a gain of £765,076, or over 9 per cent.
