SAN FRANCISCO Nov. 26
jlStill under the spell of the big
| output of precious metals that
followed the gold rush of the
year 1840. San Francisco is
finding it hard to substitute
her gold coin for treasury notes
■ in response to the govern
ment’s plea, Federal Reserve
bank officials declared here to
day. This condition they assert
is no reflection on the city’s
patriotism, but much of the
state has become so used to
gold as its money medium that
it is now a hard and fixed hab
it. This condition is directly
traceable to the gold rush of
184!) and the years following
these officials state.
For years the principal mon
ey medium was gold dust and
nuggets and many stories are
told of how merchants became
rich through purchases made
with these agencies by miners
and others who sometimes did
not insist that they be weigh
ed. Finally money was substi
tilted, but all business trails
actions were figured on a golc
basis, and that was the prevail
ing coinage. That condition:
obtains despite large imports
tions of treasury notes and ot
her papers securities and al
though the state is responding
encouragingly to the deman<
for a curtailed specie circula
8 tion it still clings to the gob
t habit.
