NEW COIN AND NOTES.

Veterans VIII Have Chance to Get Clean
Money i'm Washington.
An order was issued few days ago by
Mr. Leech, the director of The mint, TO Col.
Bosbyshell superintendent OF the Phila-
delphia mint, to have coined at once $780,
900 in silver half dollars for use in WASH
ington during the Grand Army encamp-
ment This is II supplemental order 10
others given for large amount of dimes
and scent pieces TO be minted for the
same purpose. Treasurer Nebeker has
ordered also an unusually large amount of
small notes, such as one, two and five dol
lar bills to be prepared by the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing. The pur-
pose of having the great supply OF new
coins and treasury notes on hand is to en-
able the visitors in the city at the time of
the Grand Army encampment to exchange
the worn out and filthy small change and
bills that they are likely TO bring with
them for something clean and hand
some. The merchants and others OF the
city have been notified that they can get
the money with which to make change
while the veterans are here, so that the
latter can take home with them some prac-
tical souvenir of the capital city. The
idea is not only to benefit the veterans
but to get in lot OF worn out bills that in
She natural course of circulation would not
reach the treasury for months and years to
come. and in the place of it TO get into civ
culation all over the country new and clean
money.
