In speaking of trade conditions, Henry
>Clews' Weekly Review says:
The most important event of the
week was the passage in the senate OF
the bill declaring for the gold standard,
and providing for refunding SS5O,0OO,UO
of the national debt into z per cent
bonds. This bill plants the country
squarely on the single standard basis and
gives official form to the will OF the
people declared by the result of the cleo
ton nearly four years ago. Its effect
upon the stock market is not likely to be
very pronounced, having been already
anticipated. Ever since the defeat of
,silyerism prices have been gradually ris-
Ing, largely in consequence of that event;
SO not much additional stimulus can be
found in the mere formality of putting
into legislative form a decision reached
nearly four years ago. Nevertheless, it
is an important step gained; and there
will now be no backward movement
toward silverism, the opposition to which
has been finally ~crystallized into law.
The January statement of foreign COM
MERGE is another remarkable and en-
c%ouraging feature. The exports of mer-
chandise for the month were Sll7,62O,OOO,
which was 50, 100000 in excess of the
same time last year and s9,2OO,OOO in ex-
cess of January, 1898. There was natur-
ally a large increase of imports due to
the large buying powers of the country;
the total imports of merchandise were
STE. S26, 900. This was an increase of
s~l7,eOO,OoO over 1899 and s25,0OO,OOO over
1898. The excess Of exports over i'm
ports was however reduced from about
S51, 100000 in the two previous Januarys
to SAL, 1893 600 last January. The returns
for the unexpired portion of the fiscal
wear continue to run on record breaking
lines. During the last seven months our
exports have amounted to $486, 100000,
against 1886, $4,000 the same time last
year. A very considerable portion of
this increase, it is gratifying to note,
consists of American manufactures,
which are competing more and more sue
cessfully with other nations. Our i'm
ports in this period were $500, 10000 0
against s740,5O0,OO0 the year before.
