TWO CENTS.
THE NEW COINS
Ahe director of the Mint Receives an In
stallment of Them Today.


mr.. Leech, the director of the mint was
ooins hNeiy banking business today He re-
oeNeo this morning a small box containing
s'o worm OF the new style OF coins. half dol
iars' quarters and dimes. and he was immedi-
ateiy oesiesed by applicants for sample sets.
ne accommodated all that be could at the
standard market rates OF IS cents set. but be-
fore he began this exchange OF old money for
new ne made up set and sent over 10 the
White House for the President Bv evening
ms box was empty and the applicants were still
coming.
Descriptions OF these coins have already been
printed In The Stan. but il NAV be well al this
time TO say that the main feature of the new
design is female head on the diverse, facing
to the right of the holder. wreath crosses
the head, which is covered by liberty cap.
The features are classical. The date, 1892.
is in the regular place. below the head. while
around the sides of the rim are the thirteen
stars of history. The phrase, In God We
Trust" is above tho head.
The reverse is completely filed with spread
eagle. bearing the customary olive branch and
bunch of arrows in its talons. and a ribbon
in its besk containing the ''E Pluribus
Cnum" OF standard currency. Around the
RIM above are the words United States of
America, and below the eagle is the denomira-
tion OF the COINS value. Around the eagles
he"0 lAe tnlrleen stars are clustered IN a sym
metrical arrangement
The diverse is the same in each of the three
COINS except that in the dime the words "In
God We trust" are omitted.
The reverse of the dime is the same as in the
old dime. wreu.h of oak and laurel leaves
and sprays OF corn and wheat, inside of which
are the words "One Dime, in plain letters
hese new coins are being made out of the
silver contained III the uncurrent coins stored
In the treasury. There was $4,000, 900
worth of this money. at face value, at
the beginning of the present YEAR
and this has been reduced gradually
until there is now but Sl3, 900, 600 on hand Half
a million was taken to Philadelphia recently
Tor the purpose of turning out the new coins
1t was melted up at once and it was
found when the resulting bars were weighed
that there had been a loss by abrasion of
s6,OOO, or little over per cent This was
surprise to the officers of the treasury, who ex-
pected that there would be at least per cent
loss.
The difference between the face value Of the
coin and the actual value has to be paid to the
treasurer In order to balance his accounts, and
this constitutes the cost OF the new coinage.
lhere Is now an available fund of so, 900 on
hand for this purpose, and Mr.. Leech estimates
that with this he can coin about q million dol
lars IN the new designs. He hopes
to get an appropriation of $780,
OOo from the present Congress with
which to continue the work and he thinks that
with this he can turn ou. S5 000. 900 in new
coins and thus supply the demand. 1he present
fund will last about three months.
he coins received today were struck at the
fhiadelphla mint on Saturday.

section of the Senate District committee, but

tanned. Senator Vance has retired and his
place has been taken by his colleague, Senator

Senator Ransom has not hitherto had much op-
portunity to take an active interest in District

DETECTIVE MAHON's CASE.
A New Trial Denied Upon Mai. Mooreas
Recommendation.

Recommendation
The papers in the trial of Detective Charles
Mahon of the police department have not as
yet been handed to the Commissioners II is
an open secret that the trial board found him
guilty and recommended his removal from the
force.
1t will be recalled that Detective Mahon of.
fered no testimony at the trial, in fact, made no
defense whatever Several days ago his attorney,
Mr.. +. p. Gloss, requested new trial the
ground that sickness prevented his attendance
at the hearing before the trial board. The re-
quest was forwarded TO Maj. Moore for report
Today he returned it with the erecommendation
that new trial be denied. Concluding. he
says: ''To grant this request would be equiva.
lent to ordering new trial, TO which would
not object If 1 deemed it necessary in justice to
Private Mahon. Not believing such TO be the case
and anxious to save a tedious retrial. to the
cetrimcnt of the business Of the department,
cannot recommend that this application bs
granted"
The Commissioners have approved the above
and it is expected that they will take final
action on the case tomorrow.

Michael Davitt Intimates That 1t was
Caused by Government Agents.
LoNDoS, Jan. 4.-The explosion at Dublin
Castle has brought out many theories TO &C.
count for the affair. Tho conservative organs,
as a rule. have placed the responsibility upon
the shoulders OF the leaders of the physical
force" party, and this has had the
effect of drawing from Mr.. Michael Davitt
letter which he sent 10 the Tunes for publics-
ton. la this letter Mr.. Dayitt protests that il
is cowardly for the ISBses to insinuate that the
explosion might be traced to his friend Ford.
Mr.. Dayitt says it is more probable. as the
Tunes friend Piggott is dead. that that paper
has another agent TO preach the gospel Of dyns-
mite as Piggott did the gospel of forgery.
Mr.. Dayitt also suggested that the explosion
was due to one of the government menials who
caused il with the object of influencing the
coming election in kossendaie to nil the
vacancy in the house of commons by election
of Lord Harrington, now the Duke Of Devon
SHIRE to the house of lords.
