IN OLD MEXICO.
A Panic is Threatened Because of
 Scarcity of Silver

Fl Paso. Tex, Dec 20 While tbe press of Mexico is endeavoring to keep the matter secret, it is known that the greatest money panic evei known in that country is now on
 George w. Hlseinger, manager for the Fl Paso and Juarez branches of the Blanco Mlnero, the strongest bank in Mexico City and Chihuahua, stated today that the panic was be- coming serious aud that the govern ment vas about to let out the silver reserve, amounting 10 nearly $40, 900 900, to relieve the situation.
 There is plenty of money in Mex ico," said Mir Hilseiuger, but DO silver dollars, which is the only cir cotating money The exportation of silver to the orient has very nearly cleared the country of silver and panic has resulted. The banks have asked the government to re- lease the silver, which they propose to replace with American and Brit ish money"
 An average Of $50, GOO per day has gone through Fl Paso to the orlent every day for five months and the demand is growing. luis believed that the government will again put an export duty on money, which was taken off a few years ago.
