Worrying Over the Wear of Gold Coin.

1t is estimated that the average weekly
depreciation of the 81 900, 900 in gold
held by the Boston banks is nearly $500,
or say $I5, 600 per annum, the calcutta
ton beng made on the recognized basis
that a gold coin in use actually loses a
live-hundredth of its weight in a year.
The coin is packss ~ bags
each. These bag -
to bank, and the constant fricN
is made in handling and weighing wears
away the edges and faces of the coin, so
that, sooner or later, bag falls short in
weight, and valuable time, as well as
money, is lost IN determining which bank
shall make good the deficiency-the
labC Is attached to each parcel, on which
appear the names of the banks through
which the bag has passed, being the only
means to aid IN fixing upon the respon-
sible party. The Treasury Department
has refused to issue gold certificates for
large amounts, on the ground that it
would occasion trouble and expense for
the Government. Other expedlents pro-
posed are, the appointment of an institu-
ton, not chartered by the United States,
as q gold depository for the national
banks, the interchange of certificates
amorg the banks, and the establishment
of the clearing house as a depository.
There are objections to each plan, and
another-the division of the burden
among five or six banks-is the one
which may be temporarily adopted until
Congress shall supply permanent rem
edy. The packing Of the coin in bags is
conventional way, and it does not
reflect mich credit on the inventive
faculties of bank officers that they have
not thought out better. If the coin
were packed in boxes fitted with grooves
in which the pieces would lie close and
so confined that they would not move in
course of transportation, and these
grooves were made so that they could be
lifted out, with their contents, the loss
from friction in tllmbling around the
bags and pouring out the coin as though
it was sugar, would be very much re-
duced. Boston Transcript.
