ii IS OLD RELIABLE mmm Absolutely PuroT 7NERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE KEED OF MONEY SYSTEM t'llIMIPIKE CUKKKXCV IX UNSTABLE CONDITION. Buxiiiess Men Will Ask Congress to Draft Relief Measure at the Next Session. SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 12-Vicf-Governor Luke K. Wright of the Phili ppines, speaking of financial affairs in the Inlands, said in an Interview that the money market Iscontlnually fluctu ating. "A bill to afford the necessary relief was presented to congress, but not passed," said he. "I think that for the benefit of commerce, the matter should again be taken up at the next session of ingress. It has been sug gested that a Filipino dollar of silver should be introduced in the islands. This dollar should be worth actually 60 c-nt of our gold money. I thins: such a coin would remedy the present financial situation. Such a monetary system would be similar to the one now In use in Japan." 'It has been suggested that a limit ed number of Chinese say 100,000 be allowed to land In the Philippines. Do you think their presence would relieve the present labor shortage" was asked "I would not like to see the doors thrown open to the Chinese." said he. "Skilled labor yea. If limited, would certainly prove beneficial. Some of the Chinese are very clever and they would be able to teach the Filipinos many of the Industries." Governor Wright, accompanied by his wife, expects to leave for the east Thursday night SITUATION IS SERIOUS. Further Decline in Price Causes P.ise in Exchange Rate. MANILA, Nov. 12. A further de cline in the price of elver has forced the government to raise the rate of exchange to $2.50 for 81 gold. The cheapening of silver has result ed in increasing the losses of the gov ernment and all other holders of sil ver. The mutability of the present cur rency Is seriously damaging business, and members of the civil commission and representatives of the commercial Interests in the islands will unite In making a strong pica to congress for the establishment of a non-fluctuating currency. ' i FALL IN PRICE OF SILVER. Due to Movement for Gold Standard In Malay Peninsula. LONDON, Nov. 12.

Nov. 12-With refer ence to the report that Germany and Great Britain intend acquiring IVrt ugUMU East Africa, M. Desousa Rosa, the Portu.ru ?se minister to France, In an Interview said, according to a Her ald dispatch from Paris: "There is not one word of truth in the report, and believe me, if I con sent to make such a categorical dec laration, it Is not because similar re ports with resrard to the Portuguese colonies deserve a contradiction. On the contrary, they refute themselves. Their very extravagance is sufficient proof of their Inaccuracy, but I con tradict them emphatically and unres ervedly solely for ihe purpose of put ting the public on their guard, as 1 am convinced such reports are put Into circulation for speculative purposes. "Portugal has not the slightest In tention of parting with her colonial podcie-Lsions nor of rny portion of them either to Great Britain or any other power. "Furthermore, to prevent any possi bility of error or misunderstanding I may assure you that the British gov ernment has not made any proposition. directly or indirectly, concerning Port uguese territory In South Africa.
