The foreign trade of Japan for the last

Although it is q fact that the economic
condition of the empire during the last few
years has been much disturbed by tightness
OF the money market, advance In interest
and crises in financial circles, the foreign
commerce of the country has made rapid
progress, not being hampered by those I'M
favorable circumstances, as can be seen
from the foregoing figures.
The continuous excess of imports over
exports is due partly to the remarkable
progress of enterprises, and partly to the
rise in the standard OF living in general
since the China-Japan war, and especially
In 1898, to the excessive imports in anticipa-
ton of the enforcement Of the higher
tariff.
In the year 1899 a reaction OF the previous
condition on the one hand and an extra
ordinarily favorable condition of the raw
silk trade on the other account for a COM
paratively small excess of Imports over
exports. and in the last year the excess was
reduced TO so small an amount that II there
had not been unusually large importations
of sugar and petroleum., owing to the law
increasing the duties on these articles,
made operative in that year. the balance
of trade might have been favorable to the
country.
