TO RESUME COINAGE.
The san Francisco Mint Gets n Sup
ply of Gold and Silver.

A warrant was issued yesterday by the
Treasury Department for the payment of
Sl,000,000 in gold coin at the New York
subtreasury. against like amount of gold
bullion at the San Francisco mint. This
bullion is part of a recent importation
from Australia, and will be coined at the
San Francisco mint into eagles BY this
transfer the owners OF the bullion-it is
really English sovereigns but treated as
bullion by the Treasury-wiIl save the
cost of transportation from the Pacific TO
the Atlantic. and the San Francisco mint
will obtain needed supplies of bullion
Some thirty employees of the san Fran
cisco mint were recently furloughei owing
to lack of silver bullion. Nearly all Of the
silver bullion purchased under the act Of
1890 is stored at the Philadelphia mint,
and the mint at San Francisco has been
supplied with the white metal by transfers
through a New York banking house. who
made the deposits of bullion against de-
Iiveries to them in Philadelphia The
recent scarcity at the San Francisco mint
is due TO the fact that no orders for trans
fers had been given by the bankers.
Within the last few days. however, the
bankers have asked for the exchange Of an
other lot of silver and the San Francisco
mint will soon resume the coinage of silver
dollars. The suspension Of this coinage
for a short time. however. will have no
effect upon the aggregate for the year
In the fiscal year just closed. the output
of silver dollars was 254, ,9Oy in excess Of
the legal requirement of 100000 a month.

DEATH OF A FAITHFUL MAN.
Patrick sullivan. Treasury Wagon
Driver. PASSES Away.

Patrick Sullivan, who has hauled and
handled more United States bonds, green
backs and revenue stamps than any man
connected with the Government died at his
home in this city last night after an ill
ness of several weeks. For nearly thirty
five years Mr. Sullivan held the lines over
the pair of blacks hooked to the heavy
Treasury wagon which makes trips from
the Bureau of Printing and Engraving to
the Treasury, and it would simply be i'm
possible 10 estimate the value OF the Sc
curities and revenue stamps he has handled.
The revenue stamps alone would run up
into the hundreds of millions. The only
way to get at the total amount would be
to get the annual reports of the Registry
Bureau OF the Treasury and the Redemp-
tion Division and make the calculation. 1t
would make string of figures several feet
long
During the time Mr.. Sullivan had been
connected with the department he had POS
itively refused TO accept any leave money
giving as his reason that he had never
possessed a dollar which he had not hon
estly earned, and that TO take money foI
labor not performed would simply be taking
that to which he was not entitled, or ac-
ceptng charity from the Government. I'm
der no circumstances would he accept pay
for days lost on account OF sickness or foi
any other cause, but ne never was absent
from duty a single day save when sick.
He was taken i'll last January, but refused
to ask for leave and when papers making
application for leave We're sent him TO sign
he declined to use them. Mr.. Sullivan con-
tinued to work irragularly until the 10th
OF last month, when he was forced TO take
his bed. He was ffty-three years old and
was a native of County Cork, Ireland. New
York City was his first home in America,
coming to that city when a mere youth.

Plattsburg. n. Y. July 29.-President and
Mrs. Mckinley spent another quiet day
This afternoon they went for a short drive
through the hotel grounds and along the
lake shore. 1t was pleasant outing for
Mrs. Mckinley, and the first she has en-
joyed for long time. The change for the
better in her condition is something almost
marvellous. The President, too has i'm
proved much since his coming. He says
that absolute rest was what he needed and
he proposes to adhere to the programme
in that respect, as originally laid down.

WANTS IT MADE PRETTY.
Fort Hamilton an Eyesorc to Fastid'
ious Captain Allen.

Capt S. E Allen. detailed to inspect tbs
buildings at Fort Hamilton. n. Y, has
made a report to the War Department in
which he says the quarters are crampsd and
an administration building is needed. In
conclusion he says:
The present accommodations for troops
are unsanitary and uns .ghtly and in con-
sequence of the fact that the post is now
within the limits of New York City ana
a new driveway or boulevard passes by
the post and Immediately adjoining the
post is a park and country clubhouse
these buildings have become disgrace.
In view OF its importance in the seacoast
defsnces and its conspicuous position i'll
the heart Of a district like New York City
now undergoing extensive and important
improvements in connection with the city
park system, the buildings should be re-
constructed on plan in which the sur
roundings are considered as well as the
mere accommodating power. At the pres
ent time a change of plans would occasion
less cost to the Government than would
result by a later change after buildings
now urgently needed are located ana con-

was also informed tSthe house that Mrs.
Upperman had agreed upon separation
from her husband. and it is supposed that
she will begin proceedings TO secure an
absolute divorce. Upperman, it is said, Is
out OF the city on his annual vacation.
Those who have known Mr.. and Mrs. Up
perman for the past Two years claim that
the separation comes from = long period OF
domestic infelicity.
In 1889 Mrs Uppernan, then Miss Marie
Bryant, was married TO E. S. Conhor, a
Philadelphia newspaper corr aspondent,
then stationed in this city. The couple

that he discovered that upperman was
paying attentions TO HIS wife. II is further
alleged thar these attentions eliminated in
Mr.. Conror discovering Uppermaa and Mrs
Connor III an uptown restaurant in this
city. when, it is claimed, Connor handled
Upperman very roughly and then left the
city About two years after this alleged
occurrence Mrs. Connor sued for divorce on
the grounds OF alleged non-support and
desertion. MIR. Connor claimed that Up
perman had alienateds his wife's affections,
but allowed the divorce to be granted with
out making any defence to the suit.
when Upperman first met Mrs Connor
he WAS a married mas, but few months
before Mrs Connor secured her divorce.
Mrs. Upperman, it is claimed, entered suit
for divorce from Upperman. The divorce
was granted and shortly afterward Mrs.
Upperman died and about month after
her death Upperman and Mrs. Connor were
married.
Il is alleged that the married life of the
couple was at times unhappy. Mrs. Up
perman. it is alleged. caused the arrest OF
her husband last Monday, so as TO bring
the matter TO an end
