era claiming to be spirituslists, but
whom the Herald says are three-card
monte men, gave public seance at

exposed and denounced almost at the
outset of their performance and all alb
seconded through the back way, having
! realized q couple of thousand dollars.

CHICAGO, Oct. A Washington
special says DR.. Linderman, Director of
the Mint, has returned from q thorough
examination Of the western mining facili-
ties, AMI after having digested in a
measure some of the interesting facts
gathered in his tour, he has given few
of the results of his observations Refer.
ring to the troubled question of the set.
Element of the new mint, he refuses to
say anything at present; however it is
now quite certain that Chicago ia the
place to be selected. The capacity TO,
refining and parting at all of the minis
is not equal to the present bullion pro.

fined by private enterprises. The capac
iiy of the mints for coming fine bullion
into coin is sufficient for all the gold pro
duced in the country and something ovel
one-half of the silver. The chic
source of tho bullion productio,
at the present time is the Com
stock lode at Virginia City, Ne
vada. The mines in this lode turn on
about 81 0O0,0 worth of bullion
month. OF this GO per cent. is silv+
and 40 per cent. gold. In speaking O
the future prosperity Of the country b

hogs and cattle of that vast productiv
country comes from but where they al

uf gold and silver for 1876 will probabl

- that the increased rate may be expecte

must have an important bearing on Il

at large than the resolutions of polite

Of Holland and Germany and is one of Il
