Wichita lawyers are yet talking
about the way Wallace B. Baker, who
was found guilty recently in the dis
trict court of selling mortgaged

wasn't married. He asked Baker the
following questions.

GOLD COINS TOO LIGHT.
Mysterious Loss Of Weight In None,
Hoarded BY Miners.

EIOIII III 1IllST ocean,
Philadelphia-Experts in the subtreas-
ury here will begin tomorrow to count
and weigh $4,000 worth of short weight
gold coins which arrived last week in
one shipment from banks in western and
central Pennsylvania. The coin is large.
ly made up of eagles and double eagles.
some of which have been in circulation
for q long time.
Every coin must be weighed separately.
in order that the total shortage may be
accurately determined, and the work will
take some time. Nearly every piece in
the shipment is below the government
standard or legal tolerance. The loss in
weight appears to be due to abrasion or
actual wear and tear. There is no evil
dence of the money having been
''sweated.'
The legal tolerance for wear and tear
is one-half of 1 per cent of the weight of
the coin. The shippers of the coin have
been notified that unless otherwise or
dered the gold will be weighed and credi.
given to the owners of the money for the
actual value, and the light coins will be
sold to the mint as bullion at the rate
of about $3.50 an ounce. troy weight.
Some of the gold was coined in 1860
and it is supposed that the coal miners
have been boarding it up for years in
anticipation of a strike, and when they
found that there would be non dumped
all they had into the banks.
Who will be the loser is a matter OF
conjecture, as no one knows where the
gold came from excepting the treasury
officials, and they will not tell. The sub
treasury officials say that more gold and
silver coin is in circulation in Pennsyl-
vania thar in any other state of the
union, many firms paying off their en-
ployes in gold and silver in preference
to paper money. The big mining opera
tors use gold and silver because many
