is contained in a communication which
has reached th is city from a source of
unquestionable reliability. These ad
vices state th at on March 1 last the
government gave notice th at it had
stopped the issue of paper money th at
was Hooding tbe conntry and had
turned the lithographic plates, from
which it was made, over to a commit-
tee composed of prom inent members o!
different political patties.
Conse-
qnenlly the government early in April
was alm ost entirely w ithout funds. It
had not enough to pay running ex
penses, to say nothing of foreign claim s
and demands. Not a cent of interest
had beea paid on the national debt
since the war commenced in 1899. The
claim s growing out of the recent revo-
Intion were assum ing trem endous pro
portions, and as there were no other
means of relief it was apparent th a t
tne government must again have re-
course to the lithographic stones and
start the presses running sgain. More
over. it was the general opinion th a t
even the sm all measure of relief which
m ight follow the receipt of the (10,-
000,000 from the United States on ac
count of the Panam a canal could not be
obtained, as it was not expected th a t
congress would ratify the treaty.
Al one tim e last year the exchange
on New York was 23,000; th at ia to
say, 22,000 Colombian dollars were re
quired to purchase $1 worth of goods
in the United States.
I t was feared
tn a t the 'ra te would go even higher
th is sum m er, for there wss over (1,-
000,000 worth of th is paper money
nfinat, and it was expected th a t (500,-
000,000 more would be issued im m edi
ately to pay war expenses. The foreign
debt of 1896 am ounted to (12,700,000,
on which the inteiest rate was first 2%<
and then three per cent., hut th is in
terest has not lieen paid for several
years. I t was the general opinion, ac
cording to the report, th a t the Colom
bian governm ent could not pay ita
debts, and apprehension was expressed
as to what m ight happen in case the
foreign creditors pushed for a final set
tlem en t of th eir claims.
