Datler s reported to have sald, In o recent Interview, that $12,000,000 worth of Unitea States allver coin had been purchased In this contry to be sent to Bouth America, and be apoke of this alieged transaction asone by which the United Btates Government had experienced a considerable Joss, Dr, Lindermann, Director of tho 3fints, belleves that Gen. Tlutler must have got this impression about the exporta- tiunof silver coln from the fact that thero has been recently atamped at the United States Mint 12,000,000 nickels and copper pleces for the Venezualan Government. ‘The hlanks for thess colns were msde by o private firm In Waterbury, Conn., but were aassycd and etamped at the mint In accordance with a law ALLOWING SUCH WORK TO BB DONT THERE. Thelr valne was $150,000, and both the work dono at the mint and by the private firm st Waterbury waspaid for by the Venexuelaa Gorernment. ‘There have been no large exportations of Unlted Btates sllver coln since It wos plsced n circnlation more than a year azo. Occasional smatl Jota of a few thousand dollars each in silver coin Is exported from San Franclsco to some Central or South American Btates, where it is used ag money, bat even if the exportation of onr sllver half-dollars and quarters was really large, it would be bject of congratulation rather than of regret. Nosllver coin fs paid ont by the Gov- ernment excopt at IT8 NOMINAL VALUE, while the cost of manufacturing it is only about 76 per cent of that value, 5o that the United States Govornment would make a profit of from 20 to 25 conts on every dollar's worth of its coln thus ex- ported, In addition to the sdvantago that must ac- cruo to our nstionsl trade by the circulation of our money In - forelgn countries. Unfortunately, thero s no danger that large quantities of our silver coin will be exported, beczuse if any South American States destred to obtain sflver colns for currency It could buy Mexican dollars In the open market in London for 53 to 55 pence per ounce, or from 20 10 25 per cent BELOW TIIE RATE 8t which our subsidlary silver colns are fssued. About §40,000,000 worth of gold has been colned in the Mints of the Unlted States since tho 1st of last July, Adding to this the amount of siiver colnageduring the same period, the aggregate will bo grester than the amount of colnsge ever done in the United States Mints in the same length of time wince thelr organizatfon.

From present Indications, 1t would not bo anrprising {f the smount of gold and silver accumulated in this coontry durinz the resent year from production and import amounted o fully $30,000,000, or more than the amonnt scut out of the country daring the yesr 1802, snd 48 result of the suspension of specle paymentas. Dr. Linderman.
