Europe Bars French Silver
Coins From Switzerland

PARIS, March 26.-Delegates from
the leading European powers, after .
long discussion regarding the monetary
situation on the Continent, have de-
cided to prohibit the circulation oe
French silver coins in Switzerland and
the circulation of Swiss silver in
France.
The reason for the decision is the
French trade The silver money, it
is said, is being accumulated by un-
scrupulous persons who export it to
Switzerland, where, although 100 French
francs in paper money are worth only
40 Swiss francs, 100 French francs in
silver are worth par in Swiss money.

With the indictment of three

not altogether to blame for the
excessive high prices paid for
wearing apparel for it was clear

100 to 296 per cent and the Spo-

high as 300 per cent. Of course
it doen't follow that all retail

to show that if you want to get

cities and you will get it.
