It will probably be at least a month before the Mints will be able to utilize their eptire capacity for subsidiary coins. The San Fran cisco Mint is engaged almost exclusively upon the coinage of gold, this coinage having increased materially, and further igi creases being expected as a result of the extensive gold importations of the past month aggregating probably $10,000,000 worth. A contract has been made, also, for a small volume of subsidiary silver coinage for the Mexican Government, to be struck at the San Francisco Mint, The Philadelphia Mint has been engaged with a rather exten sive contract for gold coinage on Mexican account which will probably be completed in a few days.
