SENOR LIMANTOUR'S VIEWS
ON MEXICO's curreNCY PROBLEM.
The extended tripon which Senor Limantov, the Mexican Minister of Finance, is now engaged, is known to have a very intimate relation to the solution of Mexico's intricale
money problem upon which his Government's engaged. After spending several days at New 'York, where he held conferences with many of the most prominent American financiers, the Minister and his suite left for Europe, wherall is understood that he will visit the leading capitals and holds milar conferences, especialy at London, Paris and Berlin. From statements made by him just prior to leaving New York, it is evident that the immediate purpose of his tour was already practically accomplished. This was to arrange for the issue of new Mexican dollars to the amount of $100,000. The new dollar is to be inade a legal tender for all debts and accounts collectable in Mexico, and secured by a deposit of $15,000,000 in gold. The present Mexican dollar will not receive this Government support and will have a valut as bullion only.
tenor
Limanteur wished it to be dis tinctly un 'erstood,
Government was ultimate purpose of the not the establishment of a old basis in Mexico, but rather of a fixed value of silver so that net. chants and manufacturers would no longer be subject to the annoyance and los occasionet by such fluctuations as have occurred during the last few years.
While in New York he remarked that outsiders could have no concep. Lion of the difficulties occasioned by the pre- sent situation, adding that there was a great difference between "observing from a distance and suffering on the spot."

iodical changes upon the rate of discount, commerce, agriculture and industry. The fourth sub-committer is, to undertake a most elaborate inquiry into the general question of fluctuations in the rate of exchange.
The lofty sense of responsibility with which Senor Limantour regards the work of this com mission is well exemplified in the address with
which he opened its sessions, a few typical passages from which are quoted herewith:
"It cannot be said that the events which, have, so to say, been maturing the factors of this problem into theis present form have oc- curred suddenly or unexpectedly. On the con- trary, one-third of a century ago the first syrap. toms of the phenomenon which now claims nur consideration, made their appearance, and the development of those symptoms, with vicissitudes of advance ar retrogression, attimes sudden, at times gradual, has, during the last decade, entered upon a stage that inspires just
alarm.
"In Mexico it at one time was considereit axiomatic that the wealth of the Republic was cuitailed by the diminution in the value of the white metal exported, bet as time went by and after periods of crisis otore or less acute had been experienced.

however, that the former opinions were modified and the problem was considered with greater calmness. It was then seen that though the low price of silver was detr mental to certain interests, it acted as powerful stimulus to others, surrounding them with conditions that were very propitious their growth. It also became apparent that the effect on the mining interest could not be very serious, seeing that the operation of mines con- tinued to develop so considerably. The reaction in opinion did not stop there, but advanced to the point of maintaining generally that, sening off the evils and the advantages of the depreciation of silver against one an- other, there remained a substantial balance in favour of the latter.
"We are not trying to make Mexico a gold country," Senus Limantour stated explicitly to a representative of the New York Times. "For many and varied reasons such cifort would be futile. The undertaking would be foolish. A country of whose exports 40 per cent. is silver, a country whose sliver production has through all the generations been the foremost constituent of national wealth, is barred from any such venture as from time to time is thoughtlessly suggested by some monometalist prophets. We are com- mitted to the use of silver by reason of condi- tions that are not at all debatable. Indeed, your publicists here and those in Europe sho understand the situation are undivided in op- preciating our position in this particular,"
The truth is, that while the gold premium did not excre1 100 per cent, the interests of the a whole, did not suffer country, taken as through the curtailment in value of our This seems to be chief mineral product. proved by careful analysis of the facts, though it is impossible to estimate separately the in- fluence of each of the factors that have con- tributed to the prosperity of the nation in recent years. A point, however, as to which there is no diversity of opinion, is in respect to the consequences entailed by the constant fluctuations in foreign exchange, for all are agreed in characterizing them as hurtful. A rise or fall in the gold premium, had it been. stabl. would not have occasioned such an
cry as its constant fluctuations, and thus the sudden rise of the premium to the unparalleled
"Our aim, our necessity," continues Smor Limantour," is not to interfere with the use of silver or to put gold bases restrictions upon it. Our aim, our necessity, is to have our silver money worth, day by day and year in and year out, some certain fixed value, upon which business can relv, upon which business con- tracts can be safely bared-which will give business interests the opportunity to preted safely. With this end accomplished, we | sumption. put Mexico far forward; and to-day it can be accepted as sure that sureese is attained."
"Our plan, corresponds in je diogs ways te what rules in the United States colonial finan- cial policy. In the Philippines con are obliged to provide a silver cuma separd it must have a maintained, fixed value. This is not true merely as to the United States but is a gover- ning rule with Russia, France, Holland, and Great Britain, all having colonies with similar needs, requiring similar value assurance. And with the record of accomplishment in these instances before us, the problem we have had to solve has, as it has advanced, grown more and more easy of solution."

In discursing the arduous and complex questions to which the silver problem gives ris, the virious prci uneler which it has to be consi ereil past not be confused In the first place the enedition of the metal in question may be studied on the same basis. as the condition of any other natural pro- duct, that is to say, as much ras material sub- ject to the general laws of trade. Thus con- sidered, and apart from the special application To which it has been put in the monetary systems of the world. silver is a product of much importance in respect to its other uses, and, therefore, Mexico, which produces the largest quantity of the metal, and of whose in- habitants a considerable number, as we well know, are dependent upon it for their livelihood

In truth, the great manufacturing nations cannot be indifferent to the considerable curtailment of the purchasing power of the countries which consume their products, a curtailment due to the depreciation of the local currency.

Thus there is no aspect of the pro- blem that is indifferent to us, and it may be affirmed that our country is the only one that is called upon to study the silver problems in its amplest form.
Limantour, to investigate the parfuundly serious problems created by the steady dulin- in silver, and has set itself to secure the best solution possible for each of them. That this is being done without sensational incidunts of any kind is in itself, a high tribute to the strength of the Government and a most happy augury of its ultimate success. The guiding mind in the elaborate study of the monetary problem now being undertaken is undoubtedly Senor Limantour, an excellent portrait of whom accompanies this article. Under his guidance a commission composed of the most eminent financiers, merchants and Goverment officials in the country has been appointed with explicit instructions, regarding the scope of its Investigations. This central commission has be-n divided into four sub-committees. The first of these is to investigate and repon upon the present imports and exports of the country, including the differences, if any, between the real value and the purchase price of each commodity, the amount of foreign capital invested in Mexico and the sums sent abroad annually as interest on these investments and for payment of the piscipal. This committee will incidentally repat upon customs duties, freights and other transporta tion costs by both fand and sea; intrance, commissions and all other changes beme by imported or exported merchandise. The second sub-committee is directed to inutigate with equal elaborateness the mineral produc-

It will also favestigate the stock-of mony held in the country and such fuctuations occur therein, Together with the effect of por•

It has also signified its intention not to take any step of a practical character until the necessity of modifying existing law and practices shall have been thoroughly demonstrated. It is not right for any government to involve its country in immature experiments in questions that affect profoundly and without exception all its elements of wealth, for mistaken or premature action is capable of running many interests Dun's Review,
