Sufficient to Account For Gold Exports

Sufficient to Account For Gold Exports
WASHINGTON. April 1.-THE advance
sheets of the report of the chief of the
bureau of statistics of the exports of
breadstuffs for the nine months which
ended March 81 show an enormous fall
ing off from the exports of the CORE
spending time last year. but there is an
increase compared with the exports of
1S9O-91 and also lSsg-9O. For the month
of March. 1898. the exports of bread
stuffs were $40. 4O7. 1ss. against S17.l1O,-
T19 in March. 1892. That seems like an
alarming falling off but the exports in
March this year were $4,000. 600 larger
than in March. 1891, and S25,000.00O
larger than in 1890.
The total exports for the nine months
which ended March 81. 1898. were s145,-
O3a. 766. against 1928. 159.912 for the same
period of last year. SS5. PSI 900 two years
ago and S1IO. CPD. 81 three years ago.
The exports of corn fell off for the
nine months ended March 81 from $751;

ing time. they We're s31.7S2. 600; three
years ago. S34.546. 900.
The falling off in meat products and
in cotton is also large. while there has
been an increase in imports. making
the balance of trade strongly against
the country. The chief of the bureau
of statistics said that the showing for
last month was worse than for any
time during the last four years since he
had been at the head of the Nureau.
The amount of the balance OF trade
against this county is startling.
