The . Denver News publishes the results of a government assay at Philadelphia of a 20 gold piece coined at the Denver mint, which showed a shortage of five cents, not in weight, but In the fineness or purity of the gold. The government Inspectors now working on the case are endeavoring to place the respon sibility, as required by law. They are to report to the president who is instructed by law, upon placing the guilt, to remove the responsible per son or persons from office. A shortage of five cents on each $20 gold' piece, chould the Impurity of the gold he found to be rxtenMve, amounts to J2.100 on each Jl. 000,000. At this moment there the vault of the Denver mini, in addition to vast sums sent away, $56,000,000 in coin and bullion, of which 134,000,. 000 Is in coin. Those In a position to trnow say that very little of jhls money, or of the money sent out from the mint, Is underflne. They figure conservatively that only, a shipment of $200,000 Is affected, but Investi gation may prove this estimate too low. Many of the assays of the gov ernment have proved up to standard. Fraud Not Suspected. At this time the Inspectors do not seem to think there is a possibility of fraud. They consider the trouble due merely to neglect or inefficiency. Whatever the finding Is, it will be sent In secret to the president. At present the men who seem most likely to be charged Hith neglect or inefficiency are; Joslah M. Helrlck, now assistant to the meltor and refiner, but nt the time of tne trouble f'jjeman ot the makeup room, and one of the oldest mint enployes in the business. Arthur P. Hodgson, assayer of the mint, an appointee of the president, hnldlnR a prominent position and not appointed by either the superintend ent or any other mint official. ' Carson City Precedent. Tnere was over a score of years ago a mint In Carson City under the management of the United States. This Institution had trouble. The coin turned out were Irregular, and manv were under value. So a gov ernment Investigation started. The mint, for this and other reasons, was finally closed. No one was removed as a result of the Investigation be cause, whllo It was In progress, the man supposedly careless or Incompe tent died.

Agent Jay Lynch, of the Yakima reservation, received word here last Ight that Charles Barnaby, the gov ernment teamster at Fort Slmcoe, had died suddenly Tuesday morning, says the Yakima Republic. Major Lynch was very much surprised to hear of Barnnby's death and he stated that the old man must have expired sud denly from an attack of heart disease. Barnaby was one of the most unique characters on the reservation. In fact, he bore the distinction of being one of the men who assisted the Hudson Bay people when they operated In this country. Barnaby was more white than he was Indian. He has been engaged by Agent Lynch as teamster at the fort for several years, and In harvesting time served as engineer for the thresh ing machine. It la said of htm that he was the first man to run a steamboat on the waters of Puget sound. It was dur ing his connection with the Hudson Bay company that he ran a little tug boat on the sound. The deceased was quite popular with the Indians on the reservation. He had no Yakima Indian blood In his veins and waa part French. The Catholic priest left here this morning to .hold service over the re mains of Barnaby, and his body will be laid to rest In the Catholic ceme tery today. British Treasury Surplus.
