The Republic OF Mexico.

washington Post.
The repubiic OF Mexico is undoubtedly
in a very f~ourishing condition" said Mr..
w. II. Alexander, an American gentleman
who has resided for the past eight years
at the capital Of that country, to 4 Post
reporter at the Raleigh.
Il would say that Mexico is prosperous.
not because she is on Il silver basis, out i'm
spite of il. Her prosperity is due to the
fact that only OF late have her superb
natural resources commenced TO attract
the attention of people who We're able TO
develop them. 1t is at once an old coun-
try and a new one. and every new coun.
try feels the life and business activity
that belong 10 the pioneer stage. Presf-
dent Diaz would regard it as the crown-
ing act OF his career could he place Mex.
leo on a gold basis. so that she would ask
no odds of any nation on earth. He knows
that her money is deprecated solely he
cause the finance rest on a silver basis.
Goods of all kinds are very high in Mex
leo and wages are very low. The pay
ment OF e 10 England for every one of the
Indebtedness held by that country Is a
constant drain on the people. but as long
as silver recommendation exists il cannot
be different.
Many Americans are coming into Mex
leo. and there are more opportunities for
making money than in any country L
know of. Coffee planting Is an especially
lucrative business. and there are vast tracts
OF lane that are still awaiting cultivation.
Despite the fact OF its southern location,
the climate Is far superior to that of the
United States. People who leave there in
summer Tor this country so with regret

Wool.

BOSTON Aug. 25.-Sales in the wool market
this week show an increase over the average
business OF late. but the tone OF the trade is
DUH. The increase In sales was largely due TO
business in territory woods. In which several fair
sized blocks have been taken by manufacturers
on private terms. AS far as can he learned the
buyers obtained considerable concessions from
the nominal market before the wool could be
sold. Territory woods are in large supply. but
the trade Is dull. Fleece woods are quiet, with
prices wavering. The market for Australian
woods is held firm. but the market Is dull.
