THE ARGENTINE REPUBLIC.
The United States Has But Small Share
of the Trade Of That Country.

E. L. Baker. consul of the United States at
Buenos Ayres, under date of August % for
wards to the State department the trade re.
turns of the Argentine Republic for the six
months ending june 80, 1889, just published by
the national statistics Office. They show an in
crease in imports of sll, ,910 $40 and an increase
in exports Of $50, ,956, 100. ''Were these ex-
ports the legitimate products of the country" /"
says Mr.. Baker, 'the increase would be a most
gratifying circumstance. Unfortunately, how
ever, it will be seen that more than this entire
increase is nothing more than the drainage of
gold from the country to pay the large balance
of trade against the Argentine Republic of the
previous year. And the apparent excess Of i'm
ports over exports for the SIX months amount-
ing to Sl4, 7S0, 296, is Q mere fiction AZ the inn
ports actually exceed the legitimate exports by
$9, 204, ,90l, and to meet which balance Of trade
there must be still further drainage Of gold

more emphatically than ever, with France also

ments OF cargoes which came from that coun-
try. While the trade with the United States
has really increased, our relative position ~
