London, March ll.-Engllsh investors In
Spanish American loans and enterprises
are now looking for a sequel to the Vene-
zuelan affair in some other quarter of the
western hemisphere.
The only other countries where defaults
of interests and the reputation of finan-
cial obligations are fragrant are in Costa
RIGA and Guatemala. The external debt
of Costa RIGA was scaled down to lower
rates of interest but defaults have oc-
Cured in interest and sinking fund. The
Guatemala debt was also rearranged at 4
per cent. but the interest has not been
paid. Nicaragua is melting all its obi
cations. and Colombia has recently re-
sumed services Of It's external debt.
!. The Peruvian debt was liquidated under
Michael Graces settlement, and Chile and
Brazil are fulfilling all their engagements,
Paraguay and Uruguay are paying inter-
est on their external debts and the Ar
gentine government is not making any
default
Costa RIGA and Guatemala are exposing
themselves to foreign coercion in the in
terest of European creditors. 1t is not
probable that England will join Germany
in another naval campaign against either

main Venezuelan loans complain that the

During the winter, months, the green
coal shows no tendency to crumble. If
the Ignite is dried before burning, the
energy required to volatilize the con-
tanned moisture Is saved. Devices are al
ready in use which burn the fine ignite
successfully.
The production of metals in the north
west is intimately connected with its pro-
duction of coal. Both are cause and both
are effect. The demand Of the smelters
for coke is imperative, and the depend
ence of the mining industry on local
smelters is complete. The production of
ores in the northwest has only begun. In
ten years. Montana will be a great iron
producing center. Hardly more than ten
years will be needed to develop the iron
ores of Washington. Unlike gold, or even
copper, the distance that raw iron can be
economically shipped by railroad is linn
tied. Near the places where it is pro-
duced, it must be wrought into rails, car
wheels and cutlery. The recent move
ment toward developing the iron ores of
the northwest means more for the de-
veropment of the country than the rapid
growth of It's mines of precious metals:
It means diversified manufacturing, and
ahere again the abundance of cheap fuel
plays an important part. All that Penn
