u. 5. MINT ACQUIRES
BILLION IN GOLD

The Unitetd States mint acquired
nearly 81 .0oO. 10000 in gold in the last
fiscal year. Ray Baker. director of
the mint, announced in his annual
report yesterday. This is almost dou-
BILE that of the year previous, and
more than six times that of 1915.
The large increase is due principally
to the heavy importations of foreign
gold.
The United States coinage for the
fiscal year was s25. 5.l4Sss, of which
o.. .23O,04O was gold, and SIS, rs, 500 was
silver. The average price paid for sill
yer during the year was % IA cents
per fine ounce.
The production OF gold in the United
States in the calendar year of 1916 was
s92.59O.3O0 in gold and 74.14,3O2 fine
ounces of silver.
Foreign gold bullion, containing r.
64S.796 fine ounces. was deposited.
while a total of 2,S2S,9e5 fine ounces of
silver bullion was received.

came to me that I did not care so
much now whether Dick was dis
pleased with me or not. I did not
have the slightest intention OF act

clared I would act As the major

putting on my most frivolous frock,
changed my stout walking shoes
to patent leather colonial pumps
with big steel buckles. Then with
my white fox fur collar and a new

knowing 1 was looking like moth
ing else than a very pretty woman
who was determined to interrupt
the game and spill the beans" as
Dick had said the night before. I
knew that every man there would
hate me and I was glad of II.
My heart was beating like a trip
hammer as 1 opened the door and
walked into the Gold Room Of the
Congress Hotel where about fifty
men were assembled.
They all looked at me inquiring-
ly. some admiringly. and a few in
dignantly, as Jim rose and said:
Gentlemen, this is Mrs. Waver-
ly, the largest stockholder in the
Selwyn Book Concern. Mr.. Waver-
ly and thought she had better be
called into this conference"
looked at Jim reproachfully. I
did not know he could lie so grace
fully and glibly as he had just done.
The men all arose as Jim led me
to a seat at little table where he
and Dick were sitting. I could see
some of the men were quite angry
that 1 had butted in but I was de-
termined that 1 would not be led
into talking before 1t was neces-
sary. SO I just smiled. bowed. and
took my seat.
