SPANISH FINANCE.

At the present time il is well to
consider the condition of Spanish
credit as compared with that of the
United States As has been repeated
ly pointed out the money market is
barometer which is an excellent guide
as to the relative position of the bel
ligerents. Therefore, the unstable
condition of Spanish credit and the
decline of Spanish bonds is signiti-
cant as against the prices which are
maintained for government securi-
ties of the United States.
Spanish four per cent bonds declin-
ed from a little over fifty to fortytwo
in the London and Paris market the
week before war was declared, and
went down to thirty and one-half as
soon as hostilities had commenced.
The chief holder of Spanish bonds,
according to Bradstreet's, is the Paris
Boursc. Ever since the Cuban insur-
rection of 1895 commenced, the Eng
fish holders have been unloading up
on Paris, and this may account for
the attitude of France in the present
quarrel.
1t is regarded by the financial pa
pers as highly probable that Spain
will make a default upon her present
debt. To carry on the war she will
be unable to obtain money from the
outside, but she can appropriate the
assets of the Bank of Spain and it's
gold reserve, the latter amounting to
about $40,000,O00. She can also de-
pend upon the patriotic efforts of her
own citizens. The Queen, for in
stance, has put her private estate,
which is very large, at the disposal of
the government. But though this
may supply the sinews of war, it will
have no effect upon the financial posi-
ton. Spain in the fifty years before
1878 defaulted many times, and it was
not till 1882 when the old three and a
half per cents were refunded at forty
four and one-half per cent of their
face value in the new four per cent
bonds that any regularity of interest
charges were observed.
On the other hand while Spanish
four per cent bonds have gone down
to thirty and one-half, the United
States four per cent loan of 1925 is
steady at one hundred and seventeen
and five-eighths very significant com
parison as to the financial standing
of the two nations. Financial author
tiles further state that under the pres
ent circumstances there will be no
difficulty in obtaining good prices for
United States loan of S100,O00,000 at
as low rate as three per cent, and
that such transaction would have
little positive effect in the money
market upon the value of other Unit
ed States securities.

All these things. which MIR. Hartman

endorsed last week. 1t is true that be-

Hartman tried to dissuade the silver re-
publicans from this stultifying approval
of goldbug measures. but he was
promptly voted down.
1t all goes TO show, as the Inter

is true: he is souarely for silver; he
