Thcro has never bcon a poriod during tho economic stringency abroad and which has affect ed tho wuolo world, that there naa been in Mexico a moment of tho fear of a panic or anything like it. Moreover, tho attontion of tho government of Mexico to tho financial condition is not a tbing of today or yesterday. It be gins always at tho first sign of an epoch of stringency in any of tho money cen ters of the world; and this constant vigilanco has never ceased. Tho gov ernment, watching affairs in tho money world, does not boliovo any extraordi nary moasurcs aro necessary in the present situation. Tho normal con dition is ovcrywhero re-established, and our banks, following my instructions, have maintained a system of circum spection and caution, limiting their op erations to affairs that offer amplo se curities. Tho solidity of our banks ia be yond doubt, and they aro in a condition to meet whatever contingency. Tho fact thnt business conditions in Mexico are improving daily is very eatisfactory to tho government, and our nnanciai con nections, though thoro has never been hero grave fear of trouble.

America, Germany and Japan Hold Off World Powers. London, May 19. Limitation of aaval armament may shortly bo agreed to by the European powers, according to a statement made by a high British, gov ernment official, who said: "While England has no immediate intention of issuing invitations to a congress for the reduction of warship construction, nevertheless work is be ing done to bring abont an understand ing among tho powors to this end. The efforts that aro being made are unof ficial, and considerable headway already has resulted. Within a year ib it very probable the ground will begin to bo cleared for an understanding. "Three governments at present stand opposed to armament limitation. They are the United States, Japan and Ger many. Apparently it has now become a set policy of tho United Statea to lay down two battleships of the Br end naught type yearly. This means thai America will never enter any interna tional agreement that will not reeognieo her right to mantain a fleet superior to the mikado's. No present hope ex ists of Japan acquiescing in sueh a proposal, and so it is hopeless to ex pect the Americans and the Japanese ean be eounted on to sign a naval re daction pledge." END IN SIGH! .
