FINANCIAL MATTERS IN JAPAN.
1t is significant that, while trsda
throughout Japan has been very Az
pressed during the past two years, there
has ben during that period a marked adj
vance in the prices OF government securl.
ties. For instance, the per cent. pen.
sion bonds which In 1884 were quoted Al
so yen are now 100 20 ven, and other
classes show like advance. The period
named has been one Of currency contrac-
ton in Japan, owing TO the withdrawal OF
paper currency, when has been reduced
from 93,000,000 yen to 76,000,0O0 ven.
Notwithstanding this there have been four
issues OF railway bonds representing
2O,OO0,0 900 yen, the whole of which have
been readily taken by the people. AS
contraction has proceeded the tendency
to invest money In government securities
has increased. This apparent anomaly
seems Identical with what has been wit
messed in other countries. With the de-
| preston OF trade consequent on falling
prices and the decline Of profits, money
has been more and more withdrawn from
commercial enterprise aud invested In
high-class securities Capital accdmulates
only slowly In Japan, and two years
ago rates OF Interest were high. The rate
| OF interest has fallen, however, since that
time, as people who were not willing to
lend to the government under "a per
cent. in 1884 are now willing
to lend at 81 per cent. The bank
Of Japan, moreover, which charged pri-
vate borrowers per cent. two years
ago. now lends them at 81 per cent. The
effect Of the diversion OF capital to in
vestment In government securities has
been modified by this action Of the Bank
OF Japan, which practically fixes the rate
of discount throughout the empire.
