Mint should not
be filled up until
the report of the Commission of Enquiry into the
prospects of that Establishment
is received.
As Lord Carnarvon
concurs in
that
recommendation
he has caused a copy
of Sir J. Macdonnell's
opinion to be communicated to McMahon with expression of his wish
that for the present
no further steps with
except filling
up the appointments,
should be taken.
