COLD PLENTIFUL
OVER THE LINE
All Money Values Satisfac-
tory In Mexican Cities Is
the Report.

According to men doing business in
Mexico. both American and Mexican
gold money are comparatively plenti-
full in the cities of Juarez and Chihua-
hua- In September and even later
American gold was at premium of 10
percent and it is now down TO about
one percent. Mexican gold was selling
a short while ago at a premium Of Is
percent or 90 cents for a Mexican
peso. but the premium is now down
TO two percent It has been and is
cheaper to buy American gold than
Mexican. Operators across the line
have been doing this OF course they
could get the gold from their banks
on this side to pay operating expenses
in Mexico. as the United States gov
eminent gave permits for such export
to Mexico. and this accounts for the
increase Of the quantity of American
gold money.
Carranza Decree Faetor.
Carranza's presidential decree for
American gold to pass at the rate OF
one for two Of Mexican gold is an
other factor in making the premium
lower than the latter, say those doing
business in that country. 1t is also
thought that the possible early re-
lease Of gold after the signing Of the
armistice with the central powers is a
AdCNtI IN lowering the premium on
coin Of that metal in Mexico.
Bank Bills Go Up.
Another thing attributed by men
doing business in Mexico to the pros
pective early Improvement Of business
and other conditions after the peace in
Europe is the increasing value in the
market of the price of the bills Of the
old banks Of issue in Mexico. The
bills which have been quoted the high
est right along are those of the Banco
Nacional. now up about % cents gold
A few Of the others banks bills have
been rising slowly also.
@Infalsicicables7 Up. Also.
Still another kind OF Mexican money
also rising in value slightly is the
-infalsificables." or 'uncounterfeita-
Bile" money issued by Carranza- To
withdraw this money from circulation.
Carranza had caused a decree to 20
forth that with every peso Of duties
paid in gold there should be with it
one peso OF 'infalsificado." The re-
suit is a growing scarcity, say bust
ness men. and that class of money has
advanced from half a cent gold per
peso to two cents or better.
