authority on Mexican finance and statistics, gives
some facts and figures regarding the condition of trade
between Mexico and the United States which arc
gaIded rather startling and which differ materially
from those given out at Washington. 1t says that in
the fiscal year 1878 the value Of the exports from
the United States to Mexico was In American coin
SO ,264 ,673, in Mexican money s256SG,237. and
that the value Of exports from Mexico 10 the United
States during the period was S31 ,O50 226. These
figures are regarded the most accurate that have
ever been obtained, and show that exports from the
United States TO Mexico several millions larger
