Product Of Gold and silver-Paper and
Metallic Money Circulating.
WASHINGTON, April ls.-Mr. E. o. Leech,
the director of the Mint, has transmitted to
Congress report on the production of the
precious metals covering the calendar year
1891. The product of gold from the mines of
the United States aggregated 1,6o4, $40 fine
ounces, of the value OF $50, us 900. This is an
increase Of $3.50 900 over the product of the
previous calendar year. The increased
product is due largely to fmprov ed processes
of treatment and to the increased amount Of
gold extracted from lead and copper ores.
the product Of silver from our own mines
was Sc, $50 900 fine ounces, of the commercial
value of $57. $50, ,04O or of the coming value in
crease Of $780, 900 ounces over the prior
year. The increased silver product was due
prin ctpally to the new fluids in Colorado and
Idaho and to the cheapening OF the pro
cesses of smelling lead and copper ores
bearing silver.
The total amount Of paper and metallic
money in circulation on january l, 1892, lex
its branches) was ST. 592 1888 6s3. against 81 52S,-
5A 627 on January l. 1891. an increase of $685.
$4,000. The amount of paper and metallic
money in actual circulation on April !, 1892,
was 81, COS, ,6l $50.
The product of gold and silver in the
world for the calendar year 1891 was $I24,-
229 600 gold and s139, u.s. 900 silver.
The product OF gold increased in 1891 over
the prior year nearly s., ,00O, ,00J: the increase
being principally i'll South Africa. The pro-
duct OF silver increased in 1891 over the prior
year about 6. 900 0U fine ounces. The increase
in the silver product was principally in the
United States, Australia and Bolivia.

of tue loss was resafned. The break from

day was just CSC. A good volume OF stop
orders came ont, and trading was active,

time the premium on changing over from

The market reacted in sympathy with

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
GOOD ADVICE.

"My boy, l am going to buy you
something which the doctor advised
me to give you. He said a thin
child is always delicate; nobody wor-
ries about plump one. l will give
you Johann Hoff's Malt Extract to
build you up. l know it will do it,
and then only will buy you the
stone blocks to build houses with.
You need strength first to become a
man before you build houses" DR..
Fricke, a well-known practitioner of
Phila., writes: 81 have tried Johann
Hoff S Malt Extract not only on my
self but also on great number of my
patients with marked success in cases
of convalescence, impaired digestion,
for mothers while nursing, for chill
dren. and in general debility, and
have found it to be an excellent rem
edy for building up the system. In
my own case of impaired digestion it
has benefited me more than all other
remedial agents which 1 have used"
Be sure to obtain the "Genuine"
which must have the signature of

APRIL 19. 1892

The nominal interest rate was 6 per cent, but
there was more or less shading. Having
weathered the Easter season, always q dull
period in business and speculation, revival
can be confidently counted upon. Bank
clearings were $685. 02s 20, and balances
$7lS,3sl 33 This Is the best Clearing House
report for nearly two years, and represents
large volume of business.
At Boston there is a large surplus Of
money, and rates are easier. Philadelphia
reports freer offerings of commercial paper.
AT chicago the opening of navigation has
enabled a large quantity of grain that has
been held for months to be moved out, and
mas released the money that the banks had
loaned on it. This has increased the loan-
able surplus of the banks and helped to
make the market easy. There is little i'm
provement in the demand for loans except
from lumber men, as there is little new
speculation.
AtNew York yesterday money on call

61a per cent. Sterling exchange quiet but
strong at s4 s6lI for 60-day bills and 81 S7A
