The Germans are probably the only
people who have thorough knowledge
of Russia in a business way. and they are
said to suffer very few losses CONNER
cfaI agencies such as Dun's and Brad
streets are not allowed IN Russia The
Germans have Il system of their own, and
there are agencies IN Berlin which can
give the business rating of almost any
firm n Russia These agencies are said
to receive quarterly returns regarding
business. houses in this country. II is not
surprising. therefore, that the Germans
should control so large a portion Of the
Russian trade
The Germans have agents in the prin-
ciral towns OF Russia, and these agents
subdivide large areas IL the various
provinces. and each subdivision has an
agent who IS responsible 20 the principal
