replied that nothing could be done, as
the law had been decreed by the full
Cabinet, presided over by the Presi.
dent Of the Republic. The National
Bank is badly embarrassed, and il ia
predicted it cannot survive the shock,
while the London bank is quite UNI
harmed. There is talk OF uniting the
interests of the National bank, the Com
trail railway and the National railway
in common protest to the govern

can it be decided upon what grounds
this can be accomplished. The capital
of the National Bank of Mexico is
largely held in France, whore it is
backed by the Franco. Egyptian Bank,
and to-day rumors have been current
that the French Government might
make diplomatic protest in behalf OF
the bank. The question has also been
raisedsregarding the attitude OF the
United STATES Government should
the American Railway be
seriously embarrassed. Minis
ter Jackson is in rolenca,
whore his wife is Ill, and could not be
interviewed by interested Americans.
The largo German mercantile houses
here have bought up custom house
certificates at a discount and the point
has been raised IN German circles that
the home government is likely TO
make diplomatic inquiry as 10 why
these certificates have be6a discred-
tied, Regarding the question OF posi-
bic interference on the part OF the
United States government, it is said
in legal circles here that the American
railroads are Mexican corporations
under terms Of their respective COM
missions and cannot appeal to
Washington. 1t is reported
that the government will
publish new adjustment Of the Eng
fish debt In few days, and is is ex-
pected that a favorable effect will be
produced on the London market. The
| Immediate result OF the financial couI
d'etat here must be beneficial. The
government will have more ready
money at command, now that 81 pei
cent. of its revenues have been re
leased from the burden ofsubsidies. A
few weeks ago the government haC
little money, and could not pay its EN-
ployes, and business here was greatly
depressed. Merchants now expect
better trade and are likely TO order
more extensively.
