Reserre Holdings Increase, Despite Gold Exports

gold has been exported since early in April, the
record for the ten months of the fiscal year
shows an excess of imports of the metal over
exports 10 the amount of SAC, so, 262 In view
OF the fact that the country has imported since
July more than $S3OOOOO0 while in this time
lis supply Of the metal has been increased
heavily through local gold production, there is
no occasion for alarm over the large outward
movement which is now under way In the last
week the local banks lost in cash holdings

ents rose $17T025 to $3.O44.275. compared
with S92227 25 at this time a year ago. and
with Sl4.30l 400 at the same period in 1902 In
the foreign markets there was no material
change in financial conditions. The Bank Of
England's minimum rate of discount remained
at ) per cent, although its statement Of holdings
showed loss from the preceding week. the
percentage OF reserve to liability standing at
1900. as compared with 1872 in the week

Statistics OF the country's foreign trade in
April. while showing the smallest volume of
merchandise exports in the last eight months
present a favorable comparison with the
month IN the last few years. being slightly
heavier than In April, 1903 and 1902, and about
100000 in value less than in the heavy
periods In 1890 and 1901. Total exports
amounted in value to S1O9 995 100 while i'm
ports reached total Of $50. 496. 521. making the
excess Of exports of merchandise over imports
in value S2649S 629. The comparative showing
Of exports in April much better than in
the preceding month. while the reduction from
the corresponding month last year amounted to
about Sl3OOoO00. As a matter of fact the
total value OF the Countrys merchandise ex-
ports since the first Of the fiscal year makes
a much better showing than In the same time
in 1903. while the excess of exports has been
heavier so far this fiscal year than in either
1903 or 1902. OF course, the heavy shipments
OF cotton at record breaking prices earlier IN
the year have been chiefly responsible for the
gain in foreign trade. but in the rest Of the
year results Will hardly be favorable. owing
TO the marked decline In the outward move
ment Of breadstuffs It is encoura gfny TO note
nevertheless, that in the ten months Of the ifs
cal year actual shipments all accounts were
heavier than in any corresponding period on
record although the excess of exports was much
lighter than IN the last five years

over-confidencc, and there is not too
much Of that; but In this state We

state cannot be calculated. But it
