AN EVERY-DAY SIGHT IN ONE
OF BIG BUILDINGS WHERE i
UNCLE SAM KEEPS MONEY.
:
NEW YORK, N. Y.—To see a
man shoveling silver dollars into
containers, which later drop them
into a furnace; to look through al
colored glass into the depths of the
furnace and see the dollars grad
ually become molten metal is a sight
worth going a long distance to see.
The nonchalance with which he
shovels the precious discs into “the
big hopper is refreshing. Here, you
say, is a man who cares nothing for
money. He handles it with the same
air of indifference with which the
householder years ago used to put
coal into his furnace. Those days
are long past, of course, No sane
householder today would think of re
garding with indifference the black
diamonds that have become more
precious than rubies.
The sangfroid of this shoveler qf‘
dollars is tremendous. With a big
scoop—the same kind you and I hayei
in our cellars—he digs into a pile
representing, let us say, $lOO,OOO, |
lifts upward of a hundred dollars |
and quite calmly tosses them into the |
container. Without so much as turn
ing a hair he scoops up another hun
dred, drops them into the hopper
and continues until it is filled.
Then with a turn of the wrist he
pulls a lever, the hopper swings in
to the air, is poised for a moment
over the top of the furnace and in
a twinkling lets its precious contents
rattle down into the white-hot belly
of the thing.
Having read this far you will have
realized that there are few places in
the world where such an extraordi
nary happening as this could have
taken place, and that those few are
restricted to United States mints. As
a matter of fact, it occurred in this'
city in the mint, which is the largest |
of the few money-making establish-|
ments Yncle Sam conducts. :
It was some months ago that itl
happened, but to the reporter, who |
accompanied members of the annual,
assay commission on an interesting
and, for him, unusual inspection of‘
the mint, the sight of silver dollars |
being literally shoveled into the fire |
stands out as the first of two unique
experiences that day.
The second came toward the end
of the trip of inspection, when a big
vault far under the ground was
opened with some slight show of
ceremony and those present invited
to step inside to see what they might
see,
But it wasn’t so very impressive
inside, after all; that is, not until |
you began to think of what the tar
nished pigs of metal there represent
ed. The vault is not very large and
around the four sides of it and in
the center are rows of heavy shelves
divided into compartments. The gen
eral impression is one of pigeonholes!
such as you find in an old-fashioned
desk, |
Within the pigeonholes are placedl
the pigs of metal; some a dark
bronze in color and very much tar
n?shed; others the shade of dull lead
pipe. And having shown his guests
these commonplace looking things,
Superintendent Baker, head of this
business of making money for Un-{
cle Sam, remarked casually that here
in this little room was stored the
quite respectable sum of several bil
lion dollars in bullion!
Several billion dollars! They talk
of kings’ ransoms and imagine they
are speaking of vast wealth; they
weave romances around the lost
treasure of El Dorado; they tell tales
of great fortunes in pirates' gold
hidden in secret places all over the
world and waiting to make rich be-
Eond the dreams of avarice the man
old enough to search for it—and
lucky enough to find it. But, verily,
all this fabled treasure is naught
when compared with the fortune un
der the earth at Seventeenth and
Spring Garden streets.
True, the sums with which ro
maneers have enchanted our imagi
nations may exceed the modest few
billions in this small vault at the
mint: but it is well to remember
that we can dream of kings’ ran
soms and El Dorado and pivate gold,
vet thev are only dreams, while the
few billions are actually there! And
that s not ail- There are more vaults
besides this one.
i Now, the usual visitor te the mint
is taken on a circumsecribed trip by
guides, who are careful not to let
him get anywhere near the money
that is being manufactured. He nev
er gets a “close-up’’ of the process;
mor is it pessible for him to see
within the vaults which hold such
precious contents, As a matter of
fact, he can't even see the vaults
themselves; they are far, far below
fl;:e. lowest floor to which the casual
visitor is admitted.
But when one accompanies the
commissioners who annually test the
anality of Uncle Sam’s gold and sil
ver and count his money for him,

say.
| The pouring of molten gold into
“pigs” does not stir the imagina
tion greatly. Most people have seen
molten iron going through the same
process and the sight is more or less
familiar. The molten gold is a flam
ing red mass of liquid—as is iron—
and it hisses and smokes in much
the same manner,
But the melting of silver dollars
—that was unusual. Upwards of ten
million dollars were melted in the
course of few months, cast into pigs
of bullion and shipped abroad. The
molten dollars represented a pur
chase of silver from the United
States by other nations, Great Brit
ain being the largest buyer. Her own
silver supply being short because of
the war she needed bullion to be
made into small coins for the na
tives in India and parts of China.
Much of this bullion that was for
merly dollars went, therefore, to
the Royal Mint at Bombay.
Because of the nonchalant way in
which the workmen handled t{ese
dollars one must not think that they
were handled carelessly. Every coin
was accounted for; every pig of
metal tested.
To watch a man stamp out small
pieces of nickel which will some day
be five-peso pieces for use in the
Philippine islands is an interesting
experience. So is watching closely
;'the weighing of five, ten and twen
{ty»dollar gold pieces. It is notewor
‘thy that while nickels and dimes‘
‘are weighed in the bulk and pen-|
‘nies. are not even weighed at all, ev
ery silver quarter, half-dollar and‘
dollar that goes into circulation is’
as carefully weighed and tested as‘
are the gold pieces. ‘
Pennies are counted a hundred at
a time, and to help count them is
also an unique experience. The pro
cess is a simple one, the counter us
ing a large square board in which
are a hundred circular depressions,
each big enough to hold a penny.
Here, too, a scoop—a small one—
is used. A quantity of pennies is
thrown on. the board, the counter
joggles them around a bit and those
which «fail to find places’in the de
pressions roll off. The pennies om
the board are then taken off by
means of an arrangement which per
mits all of them to roll into a groove
and then into pieces, and because
each depression is just the size and
shape of a perfect penny the work
of weighing the copper coins is
eliminated and imperfect; ones do
not find their way into circulation.

That the man has been arrested
was brought to the attention of

here from Lumpkin Thursday after
noon on-a business mission. Sheriff
Johnson had just received a letter
from Sheriff C. N. Volz, of Tifton

The prisoner when taken in custo

ed the car he was driving from R.

copy of the Georgia license issued
showed the tag on the car had been
issued to B. E. Abell, of Richland,
Ga. Telegraphic inquiry disclosed
that the tag had been stolen from
Abell’s car some time ago, in south

Further inquiries disclosed that
the number upon the motor of the
car was that on the car stolen from

and examination of a grip carried by

to fall to_ruinous prices.
2. For the Sugar Trusts in all their legislation.
3. For the Railroads and Express Companies
against the Parcels Post Bill.
4. For the Shipping Trust against the Shipping Bill,
when in 1914 the lack of ships beat down the price of cotton to
5 cents a pound.
