COTTON GROWING IN MEXICO.
Her Policy Is to Work Up a south
American Trnde.

American Trade.
city of Mexico, Sept. 25.-The English
lne steamers TO ply between Chilean ports,
touching at Callao and Guayaqun and Cen
trail American and Mexican west coast
ports, will begin voyages Jan. 1. and it Is
believed here that Mexico will greatly in
crease its trade TO the South American
Pacific ports.
Before the determination was entered
upon to put on these steamers, the mer-
chants here were consulted, and it is be-
hoved that as soon as Mexico produces her
own cotton in sufficient quantities for her
mills, she will be able to sell cotton in
South America in competition with the
United States, England aud other coun-
tries on a gold basis.
American capital is going into the devel-
opment Of lands appropriate to cotton cul-
'ute along the Balsas river near the Pa
enc coast, and New York capitalists, who
are now here and are behind the move
ment, are confident that enough cotton
WA be produced to emancipate Mexico en-
hrely from the American supply. Every
year the amount of domestic cotton In
creases and fully half the amount is ma
tive product
MeXtco's policy is TO remain on the sill
yer basis, and after supplying the home
markets with manufactures, invade South
America
