SILVER SCARCE IN MEXICO

Mexico, City, Jan. 7.-Infnite an
noyance to every resident and an ap.
preciable loss to business houses has
resulted from the virtual disappear
ance from circulation of silver coins.
These comprise half peso pieces and
those of twenty and ten centavos. The
constantly increasing price of silver
has given spectators a chance to
make enormous profits by cornering
the silver coins for. sale as bullion.
When the shortage became noticeable,
the capital press printed stories on
the disappearance Of the coins. An i'm
mediate rush to hoard what coins re-
mained then began.
Persons without change are unable
to make small purchases as many
will decline to sell if they
are forced to give silver change for a
ten or twenty peso gold piece. The
to relieve the situation,
is rushing preparations to mint a new
gold coin worth two and half pesos.

railroads in Asia, has also increased
the need of immediate aid to keep
refugees from starving.
