CHRISTMAS GOLD.
Theren Re Plenty Of the New Coins 10 60
Around.

WAsHINGTON. Dec. 21.-People who are
writing TO the President urging him to
stop further coinage Of the new gold pieces
do not seem to understand the situation.
Mr.. Roosevelt cannot abandon the new de-
signs even il he wants to.
When a coinage has been decided upon
and ordered it cannot be changed for a
period OF twenty-five years except by
act Of Congress. That ia precisely the
state Of affairs at present.
Unless Congress orders the use Of other
designs the Saint Gauden coins will con-
tinue TO be used for a quarter OF a century
at least. People who are putting away
the new gold pieces under the impression
that there will he only a few Of them are
advised not to be too greedy. Probably
10000 of them are already in the ha2ds
Of individuals and more are steadily being
issued.
They nave come slowly not because of
the protests over the absence Of an God
We Trust" but because the design was
so different in relief and other mechanical
details that considerable experimenting was
necessary in stamping the first coins.
The models fret used for the dies were
entirely unsatisfactory in the results they
gave. They were quickly improved. but
thousands Of the coins were struck before
satisfactory models we're achieved.
These early coins had to receive a. many
az nine blows in order to come out perfect.
AZ the regular gold coins are struck with a
single blow. it can I've seen that the present
issue was necessarily slow. When the
models are perfected the dies will give saiis-
factory results with the striking Of only one
blow.
Many Of the new coins are in demand
for Christmas presents. There is always
an unusual call for gold for that purpose.
especially in the East. Gold is too common
in the West to be regarded as especially
festal.
But the banks Of the Eastern States al
ways lay in a supply OF yellow boys about
this time OF year. One New York bank
sent 10 tbe Treasury for $4,000 in gold to
supply the probable demand for Christmas

Whalebone whips are still made, and the
