GERMANY'S FINANCES
The Export of Gold Has Amounted to
 Practically Nothing

Berlin, January 14-A leading official of the Reichs'bank, in tine course of an inter view today, made the following statement regarding the financial situation:
 'Smce the beginning of this year the ex- port of gold has been almost nothing. A second reduction in Iuhe bank rate before the end of January is possible. but every. thing depends upon the further develop ments of tlhe market The tbourse has taken too optimistic view of the money situa- hion, in view of the fact that the rapid fall sn discount since January Ghas been large ly abnormal.'
 Private discount declined all of last week, reaching an unexpectedly low point It ds apprehended, however that the ease of the market is transient, inasmuoh as many loans which have hitherto been proposed Because of dear money will soon come upon the market London exchange continued ito fall until the closing days of the week, when it began to rise again in conse- quence of the payments for pig iron pur- chased in England
 "The stock market throughout the week showed optimistic tone. Prices in all departments advanced, coalers and irons considerably. Reports from the coal and ilon centers show a fresh squirt, orders multiplying and prices again rising. Coke Is 8 marks per ton, as against r last sum mer. It is reported that coal shipments from the United would be welcomed as a relief.
 Negotiations are progressing favorably toward reopening the Berlin produce bourse.
 "To1day's news that a peace movement Is growing in Great Britain is received with incredulity.'
 The Ilokal Anzeiger says: Tt is impos- sible that the British government in any event could be influenced by such a move ment. Great Britain's prestige impera- tively demands, since only once she has gone on the war path, scrat she should carry matters to a successful issue"
 The paper contains an article Joy General von sohnncllng, crltlcizing the war, and saying that 1t is questionable whether Great Britain, even with Lord Roberts and Lord Kitchener and 15O000 men, will win.
 Reports are published today from Will helmhavcu that the German ironclad squadron Is completely ready to leave for action within A hours.

EXPORT PRODUCTS
 OF UNITED STATES Interesting Report Showing Where American Products Go. ENGLAND TOOK ONE-HALF The Summary Shows That Eighty eight Per Cent of the Farm Pro-
 duce Shipped Was Mar
 keted in Europe
ENGLAND TOOK ONE-HALF

Washington, January 14.-rFank H. Hitchcock, chief of the foreign markets division of the agricultural department, has prepared an interesting lot of figures show ing for the first time the respective amounts of our agricultural exports which go to the several countries of Europe and of the other Continents.
 The period covered is 1894 to 1S9S The statement shows that the agricultural pro- ducts exported from the United States during the five years had an average annual value of $66S ,536 POI. Of these enormous ex- poris about GO per cent. found a market in the United Kingdom and its various de- pendencies.
 The sum paid by the British people for the American farm product purchased dur ing the period mentioned reached as high as $4O3, ,953,S54 a year. Great Britain alone took more than one-half of all our agri- cultural exports, the consignments to that country forming about 55 per cent. of the total shipments, and having an average an- nual value of S362 407, 7O1.
 Germany, which ranks next to the United Kingdom as a market for the products of American agriculture, received about 13 per cent. of the exports for 1S9i-1S9S, the average yearly value amounting to $S6, ,32O, PA.
 France, wb-h purchases that average $43,- 9sS,79O year, or about 6.6 per cent. of the total. was the third country in importance.
 These three countries-the United King dom, Germany and France-received to- of bs, cultural exports. After the three countries just mentioned, the Netherlands, Belgium, Canada, Italy and Spain afford the most important markets.
 With very few exceptions the leading for eign countries materially increased their purchases of American agricultural pro- ducts during 1S9i-1S9S.. In the total value of the agricultural exports there was an ad- from $636 633 TAT in 1894 to $S5S 5O7 942 in 1928, making a gain of $221 STA ,195. The coun- tries of destination that contributed most to this increase were the United Kingdom. Germany, France, Belgium, Canada the Netherlands, Japan, Italy, Denmark and British Africa.
 Our exports of farm products to the United Kingdom increased $S25 5SS ,S54 dur ing the five years; to Germany, $46, Al ,33S, and to France. $33, ,415, POS.
 The summary brings out the fact that about SS per cent of all the farm produce shipped from the United States during the five years mentioned was marketed in Europe, the annual average being $5S5, ,954- 907. In 1898 1t reached as high as $761 ,S07 TSP, showing an increase of $195, ,5SS ,93S over the value for 1894.
