WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-The Director OF
the Mint is preparing . statement to show
the profits arising from the coinage OF
standard silver dollars for the fiscal year
ending June 80. The amount thus made
10 very large, being in gross for the five
years since July /, 1878, the enormous
sum of SIT. 342,1 Nearly all this profit
has gone into the Treasury, for after sub
tracing wastage. cost Of coinage, trans
p~ortation. and other expenses, there is left

sidiary coin over the bullion value 1t the

profit for five years Of So. 1860, 900 annually.

portion to the value Of the Issue - that
which results from the coinage Of baser
pieces. Last year the profit from the
coinage Of nickels and 1-cent pieces at the
Philadelphia Mint was about $100, 900.
The Director Of the Mint IL cooling . little
in his affection for the standard dollar.
He says be thinks we have enough OF them.
He will probably recommend the repeal of
the compulsory coinage clause In his mes
sage this year. Treasurer Wyman reports
a pretty fair demand for the dollar at New
Orleans. which is usual this year. Last
month there we're more dollars taken there
than we're uttered ct the local Mint, which
is $500 900 monthly. Owing to the fact
that the dollar is repugnant to the Pacific
Coast, the coinage has been almost stopped
at the San Francisco Mint.
