Cold Kings Trying
To Restrict Produc-
ton Of Gold Coinage
special To The Ncws.


Washington. D. c., March "a
The secret OF the snaips pace al
which the government handles the
Denver mint, is out. The admins.
tration has deliberately commenced
to discourage the production Of gold.
Ltpgofesses to fear the result of the
enormous production that is likely TO
follow the opening OF the South At
rican mlnts. The money power has
convinced it that unless something Is
done to check gold production, disas-
trous expansion Is certain to be the
outcome. Strange as this story
sounds, it is the solemn, sober truth.
The administration members of
both the senate and the house are
backing up this view. We have at
last the explanation of the mysteri-
Gus obstacles found in the way OF the
completion and furnish ing OF
the Denver mint. 1t a'ill encourage
gold production in Colorado and its
tributary mining states, and this the
money power has impressed upon the
administration is dangerous to their
interests. An abundance Of money
advances the selling price of all
and this is sgainst the in
crest of money.
