MINT OUT OF BUSINESS
There Isn't Any More Gold to Be Made
UP Into the Coins That Are So
Much in Demand.

Philadelphia, Pa, June 9.-At the
mint on Friday last the last available
gold bars in the local supply VAS coined
into double eagles and SIS. coo, 000 in gold
bars forwarded from the New York as
say office will reach rere In order that
the extraordinary gold coinage now in
progress at the mint may not be inter-
rupted. 1t was stated at the mint that
nearly SO, 1000 00 in gold coins were now
being produced there daily. and that the
coinage of $50 gold pieces for the week
ending on Saturday would exceed $l0,-
600, 900.
The present rate of coinage at the
big Spring Garden street factory is by
far the greatest in the history OF any
mint in the world. Since February
more tina $S0.e00. 900 in gold double
eagles have been coined there and de
posted in the vaults, where the total
deposit of gold coins now exceeds 5000
coo, 600. All the employees in the coming
department are now working from S
O'Clock in the morning until 10 o'clock
at night. and those IN authority say
that operations will be continued at the
present rate until the government has
exhausted its entire available gold sup
ply for coinage.
AS fast as the gold is coined the treas
try department. issues gold certificates
for the amount deposited. Their is a
sharp demand from the banks every
where for these gold certificates. and
yesterday about $4,000 in one batch
of 10000 bills was forwarded to one
bank in New York. One object OF the
government in rushing the gold coinage
is to keep The gold in this country. The

Japan is making every government par
ticularly careful of its own gold. At

KuRoKI ON DEFENSIVE.

kin by Delivering an Attack.

r.ilt Wy G@IiNSliIIS GtI SNbAdSH.
st. Petersburg, June S.-General Kuroki
is refusing to attack the Russian posi-
lions at Lao Yang, and indications are
that Sui Yen is likely to become an inter-
esting center which General K~uropatkin
might choose as his first battlefield. 1t
is necessary to nake a movement against
the enemy as a prelude to the relief OF
Port Arthur. which cannot be- undertaken
until General ISuroki's combined forces
fave been beaten, or at all events, until
t..e!r further advance is biockei.
The appointment of Field Marshal va
magata gives the cue lhat the Japanese
propose hurrying matters so as to fore
stall action on the part of General Kuro-
'patkin. Large forces of cavalry are be-
Ing pushed forward to Hai Cheng with y
view to operations toward Stu Yien.
Reports served every few days when
news Is scarce, about serious differences
of opinion concerning the mode of carry
ing out the campaign between Admiral
AleXieff and General kuropatkin" need
not be taken seriously. The viceroy is
being confined very strictly to admins
trative functions which keep him fully
occupied. nor ia he a military man or a
ytrategist. General K%uropatSin is given
free hand and in cases of necessity is
neither controlled from here nor by Ad-
l1llral AleAieff. His slowness In moving
is due to a series of Unexpected delays in
receiving reinforcements, details of which
it is injudicious to publish. but which are
only too We'll known to the headquarters
staff here.

RUSSIA A OF DEAL.
Inclined to Believe That Philippine

Might Be Sold to Japan.
ST. Petersburg, June S.-The Novoe
vremya today discusses quite seriously
the report that the United States intends
to cede the Philippines TO Japan and ar
CUES that the far-seeing Yankee, ant.ci-
pating the inevitable future conflict with
Japan. prefers to sell the islands instead
of defending them, having thereby
learned Russia's lesson of the present
war, namely, the difficulty of holding
territory so far from the base. The paper
adds:
Europe certainly was not pleased at
the exchange of Spanish for American
domination in the Philippines. but the lat
ter is u thousand times more agreeable
than to see Japan installed there, where
1t would be a constant menac to Europe's
Asiatic interests. england will have to
look well to It's position IN India. France
to Indo-China and even Holland to Java.
TIL only consolation is that the cession
may keep Japan quiet for a number of
years"
An Associated Press correspondent has
telegraphed here that General kuropat-
kin's headquarters staff has moved forty
miles south of Liao Yang, to n point be-
tween Hal Chcng and DashitsZaio.
~Kuropatkin's move Is considered to
possibly f~oreshadow severe lighting in the
northern part of the Lao Tung peninsula,
but it is a mistake to assume that this
action involves a change in the portion
of the Russian army, which. according
to the best information. remains at Lao
Wang.
