MEXICO INTERESTED
Pleased to See United States Trying
 to Aid in Silver Problem

City of Mexico-There is great inter- est taken here in the activity of the American government on behalf of silver, and President Roosevelt's will. ingness to aid in the solution of a problem of such vital importance to this country. The attitude of the American government is considered most friendly.
 The monetary commission to study the silver question here is a local measure which attracts favorable atten- tion. Not for many years has such a representative body of banking, indus trial and commercial experts been convened, and it is believed to augur much good in bringing about better popular understanding here of the underlying difficulties attending the settlement of this complicated matter. The government has won praise by its judicious action, for now it is seen it proposes to act only on advices from the representative m,n.
 One of the questions of greatest in- terest, and one which the commission will investigate, is the present quan. tity of silver money in the country. Notwithstanding many banks have come into existence, it is pointed out by Finance Minister Limnatour that it is still the custom in many parts of the country among merchants and wealthy private peison to keep large amounts of coined silver in private safes. An effort will be made to as- certain the amount of currency, both metallic and paper, which the country requires for its business. /

HOUSE BUILT OF GOLD
To Form One Feature of Colorado's
 Exhibit

Denver-A house of pure gold from the mines of Colorado, for which $lO, ,0OO, ,0OO will be. loaned by the gov Q nment, is one of the features that will go to make up Colorado exhibits at the St. Louis worlds fair. For some time the members of the state fair commission have had the idea under consideration, and it is due to their initiative and the assistance of Sena- tor Teller that the plan will materi- alize.
 Washington advices on the subject say: "Senator Teller has written a letter to the secretary cf the treasury asking for the loan of $l0, ,OO0, 900 to be placed in the Colorado building at the St. Louis exposition. Secretary of the Treasury Shaw said Saturday that he saw no reason why the gold could not be loaned under proper guaran- tee. He said he was not familiar with the precedents which might apply to such request, and that possibly there might be some law or regulatio which would prevent the government from placing the money at the disposal of trustees in charge of the Colorado exhibit.
 "The application of Senator Teller was referred to Director of the Mint Roberts. He is now in Iowa, and there will be no answer to the re- quset until he returns and passes upon it. ..
 "At the office of the supervising architect of the treasury. Saturday it was said that very large reproduce tion of the White House might easily be made, and without much expense, from such quantity ot pure gold" :"

electric power, which ho subsequently, assigned to San Francisco. A survey had previously been made under the direction of Marsden Manson, without the authority of the government. The Federal government, judging from a letter received by Register J. D. Maxey of the United States Land office here, evidently regards Manson and his surveyors as intruders, and iesents his invasion of the park, by refusing to grant the water rights, for which filings were made by Phelan. The application of w. B. Clapp of Los An geles, who filed on Lake Vernon. in Yosemite Park, for the generation of electric power, is denied in a similar letter.
