Ask to See Them. '"V v- "VOGUE SUITS ME ' 0 ; MAGNIFIED MEXICAN DEBT Washington, Aug. 4. Mexican newt- papers reaching Walking:. n contain long articles declaring that, recent fig nreo as to the Mexican labile debt, pub liahed la the United 8taree, are "wholly inaccurate." ,Ia this connection finan cial experts here said comparison of the unofficial figures published ia this coun try with the figures givea out by the Mexican Treasury Department sho.v no great discrepancy. ; The official Mexican figures as to the external loan' debt of the country are 1143,472,000 with iatereet to the end f this month placed at 443,000,000. The Unofficial figures as recently published placed this total at $173,469,000. The ap parent difference,' experts here eartf, is mad up mostly by the 8:10,000,000 of the Huerta loan, floated ia France under authorization of the Mexican Congress, but repudiated by the Carranxa govern ment. The internal loan debt of Mexico, aC' cording to the official statement, is C9, 397,000 and interest to June 30, of 817, 914,000. The unofficial report gave this debt' as 866,611,000 and interest of 14,130J)00. Washington financial experts say the Mexican Treasury statement fails to ae count for all the guaranteed railroad in debtednens which the unofficinl report figures at 4280,500,000 ; the obligations other thaa railroads which the Mexican government hat guaranteed the chief of which la the farm loan banks' debts, which,' with interest to June 30, totals 431,500,000; the "infalsifieable" issue jf paper money of which 430,000,000 at ten cents United States currency is still outstanding making a total of 44,000,000 more, or the 420,000,000 which farranta took as a "loan" from the banks of issue ia Mexico City. The fact that Mexico has paid no in terest on her foreign debt jinco 1913 also is kept in the foreground by Wash iagton experts who, for the Stite De partment, are keeping a close watch on the financial condition of Mexico. Ex perts hero also assert that the Mexican government hat used the entire income of tho rail.oads and express companies without accounting and with no admis sion of responsibility.
