WORK AT THE MINT.
Importa mt Improvements in the Coin
age Department..

The increased demand for subsidiary
coin caused by the partial resumption
of specie payments, and the heavy coin
age OF trade dollars, have necessitated
the employment OF all the resources of
the San Francisco Mint, and would have
demanded additional machinery aud
probably additional accommodation -
something not likely to be obtained un-
der the reduced appropriations had not
Coiner Frank X. Cicott adopted certain
improvements of his own contrivance.
The results are highly satisfactory, Un-
der the old process the ingots passed
through the rolling NUTS from nine to
tn rteen times before being reduced to
the proper thickness for the die punch.
The heavy pressure to which these strips
we're subjected made it incumbent upon
the Coiu-r to have them annea!ed twice
to soften the metal before the proper
thickness was attained, and they had
again to be annealed when they we're
finished. Under Mr., Cicott's process
the ingots are passed through the rolling
mill at q lesscntd d pressure from fourteen
to eighteen times, according to the quail
ity of the metal By this manner the
necessity of annealing is obviated, and
the strips come out in better shape. The
advantage in th- annealing room IS now
apparent. Formerly two canisters were
used for each "melt." ani the strips Of
silver were allowed to remain in the an
healing room for thirty minutes each
time. The new cauisters are enlarged to
hold m entire melt, aud are subjected
to the heat of slow FIRE for about three
quarters OF an hour. By this process
the aunesliug is more thorough and
equal than by the old one. The canlsters
can also be worked to better advantage,
and the number OF condemned planchets
are much less. In the whitening room
where the strips are taken after being
auDealed, the improvement is also felt,
The BLANKS" thus prepared whiten very
rapidly, and with little loss, not being
subject to warping. The saving in fuel
aud in the wear and tear on the furnaces
are important items. By the adoption
Of Mr.. Cicott's Improvements the WORK
Of building additional furnaces has been
obvlated. and it will save the expense
that would otherwise have baen incurred
in remodeling the interior of the build
ing. Ths work of the Mint has been in
creased from thirty to fifty per cent by
the new process Under the old regime
the capacity of the Mint was oulv $780,
900 month, but since the lst of Janu
ary, when the new process went into op
earation, Mr.. Cicott has been enabled Il
turn out from $S50,000 to $1,000. 900
month, which result has been reache,
without increasing the working force
Mr.. Cicott has been aided by Genera
