Recent Manila advices to the war department throw light on the agitation in the islands of the over the prooed expulsion It Mexican dollar from circulation. conducted for the seems the banka must art by foreigners are strenuous in their opposition to the proposed abandonment of the Mexican silver piece, the principal currency medium iu the islands, because of the large for rnakiug opportunity it affords profits in exchange. Before the Spanish war the Siwniah authorities lu Manila had prohibited the Importation of Mexican dollars, the as curpurpose betng to substitute peso, not rency the Spanlsh-Fllipln- o quite as valuable an actual silver in the Mexican dollar. The Spanish authorities even went so far as to import the Mexican money into Manila in their own account and recoin it into pesos at a profit of about ten tier cent. The pesos were not iiopulsr.and when General Merriett. the first. American governor, took charge of the Island, he found that there was not enough money for business purposes. Therefore, he ordered the Husjiension of the decree prohibiting the Importation of Mexican dollars and those soon began to pour into the Islands from China in great volume. The banks of Manila had been making a handsome profit out of the Philippine peso, and Just as they now resist the cuange to the American peso, su they resisted General Merritt's order allowing the importation of Mexican dollars. Hut an American peso, having been provided for by congress, the other silver money of the Islands must go and the question now pending before the Philippine commission is simply as to the date when the new order can be made effective with the ast derangement of business.
