4 CREDIT NATION.

The moath of September promises to see a struggle of Europe against some of tte automatic forces of com merce. Bills are already beginning to pile up in the New York exchange market for the autumn exports from this ct untry A fall in exchange to the import point should be normal incident in few weeks. But Europe cannot spare gold tor export. while the United States has more gold now than it needs. Only by further borrowing in New York and draw ing on the resultant balances can Europe, itseems. be able to control exchange and avoid loss of gold to the United States. To America the pressing finarcial questions of the hour are becoming: What shall be done with the large aud still in- creasing national credit balanee?n The only answer seems to be: Wholesale investment in foreign securities.
 Gu this score another foreign na- tion last wee& offered to help us out The placing Of $l0,000, GOO of Swed ish bonds in this country, following the floating here of $28, 900 900 of the British var loan issue, only to a very small extent has solved the problem of low the vasts credits ac cruing to this country in Europe shall fnd investment The C, edit ba.ance of this country will prob- ably he increased iu 1900 by $700, 006, GOO. To Mexico, Montreal {Gau ada), Russia, England and Sweden about SIG, 100000 during the past eighteen months has been loaned out, which only about one.tenth covers what will be thls year our probable increased credit from the balance of trade. It is evident1hat foreign securities will have to be listed in New York very soon. AnG

DiAz AND THE REPORTERS.
Hard Man to Interview Because He
Il So Modest.

President Porfrio Diaz, the president
Of Mexico, has changed little since he

of his suit, at Madison Square hotel.
where be mingled with the less distin-
guished guests as though he were a mer-
chant from a country town on buying
trip. 1t was difficult for the reporters Of
the newspapers to find him. The report
ers were gathered at the clerks desk
waiting for an answer to their requests
for an interview, when one of their num-
Der seated himself beside a well dressed
man and began to ask questions regard
ing Mexico. He was q slender, middle
aged man, very dark and spare.
After a dozen questions had been liter
ally fred at him, he shrugged his shout
ders politely and pointed to tall man in
the center Of the corridor.
HE speak. l DON'T" he said.
Thereupon the reporter hurried over to
the tall man, who was surrounded by re-
porters in a minutes time.
"Who Is her. whispered one reporter
Of the spokesman.
"Biaz"
"Who says soT'
"That duffer on the settee."
So they pumped him dry. Just as they
were thanking him. he interrupted:
"Who do you think amp he asked.
General Dias," they chorused.
mo, no. l am a railroad ticket agent.
That's General Diaz over on the settet."
But the man on the settee-ths "old
duffer"-had gone to his room. He did
not disappoint the reporters. however.
He saw them all a little later with his
interpreter. But he did not talk half so
much about General Diaz's great work
as the tall railroad man had dons.-Sat-

the size and shape of any room.
The design Is placed in front. and the

The first years experiment with the

They never thought Of using bsit
To lure the willy trout;
They reached bushel basket down
And simply ysnksd them out,
And In about an hour or two
They'd all up several drsys
And show them through the neighborhood-
