SILVER COINS HAVE
DISAPPEARED IN MEXICO

Mexico City, Jan. 4.--Infinite an
noyance to every resident and an ap-
probable 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 chance
to make enormous profits by corner
ing the silver coins for sale as bui-
hon. When the shortage became no
ticeable, the capital press printed
stories on the disappearance o. the
coins. AID immediate rush to hoard
what coins remained then began.
Persons without change are unable
to make small purchases as many
merchants will decline to sell IL they
are forced to give silver change for i
ten or twenty peso gold piece. The
government, to relieve the situation,
is rushing preparations to mint new
gold coin worth two and a half pesos.

STOCKS reflect STRIKE
IN A MODERATE DEGREE.

NEW YORK, September 22.-The
steel strike exerted little adverse in
fiuence over the stock market at the
opening of today's trading. Steel
shares were least disturbed Of any
important issues. opening mostly at
gains which extended from h"lf a
point In United States Steel to one
point in Bethlehem and three for
Crucible. Reactions in the first half
hour cancelled most Of these gains,
however.
Stocks dependent upon the stability
of the steel industry such as equip
ments, were steady to firm, although
the motor group was inclined to yield.
Trading was comparatively small.
