apprehension and depression during most OF
the week. Exports of gold today will
probably be no more than $1,000 900. More
over, quite large purchases of securities on
foreign account are reported, which would
cancel heavy adverse merchandise balances
and to that extent prevent gold shipments.
Outside financial influences, the course of
business is undisturbed; its volume is still
large, though somewhat affected by recent

usual of unsound or unhealthy conditions,

in prices, and structural works are well en-
ployed, though at low prices, but the de-

the fact that exports Of the principal pro-
ducts in January were s29 100000 smaller
than last year, while imports at New York
alone were 81, 600 900 larger than last year,
which indicates a considerable excess of
