GOLD SHIPMENTS TO GERMANY.
ONE BANKER THINKS THEY HAVE BEEN MUCH
LARGER THAN REPORTED.

At least ST. 100000 gold will be exported on the
French liner leaving this port Tomorrow an en-
gagement for that amount having been made
by Lazard Freres, and two other banking
houses and banks also may make shipment by the
same steamer.
Speaking of the gold exports to Germany, the
representative of large banking house with in
fuental connections throughout the German EN-
pire said yesterday that in his opinion the amount
of gold sent to Germany from this country within
the last few weeks had been much larger than
was generally known. Much of this gold was
shipped privately meet the demands of the
German bankers. who have to make their semi
annual statements July and are anxious to
make good a showing as possible. Not only
have the German bankers been paying a liberal
rate. according this local banker but they have
been paying interest in transit. and in all proba-
biIity have made further concessions.
THE simple facts are these added the banker:
Germany needs gold. and we are the only people
that supply her needs. She must. perforce,
and that is what she appears 10
be doing. l do not believe that much of the gold
recently exported to Germany will stay there very
long in fact, longer than it will take the bank
there to adjust accounts for the semi-annual
examination by the Department of Finance"
President Snyder of the Western National Bank
said yesterday that his bank might ship some gold
abroad this week, but declined to give any idea of
the destination of the shipment.
