Two things. il is said, have contributed To this

MEANS EXPANSION OF TRADE
Increased Output of Gold Will Have
Good Effect.

Feast days and holidays, Sundays
and work days throughout 1905, each
will give the world over million dol.
lars of new gold. The mines of the
earth will yield this year $375,O00,000
of gold. F. A. Vanderlip, the New
York banker looks forward in the
near future to an annual average out
put of S400,000,000 of new gold for at
least considerable number of years.
He does not think this startling yellow
flood will be a yellow peril to those
business relations which are based on
terms of money so as to cause any vi
tai arrangement of affairs. But he
does think there is likely to follow
just what followed in the two former
periods of the worlds history when
there was an extraordinary production
OF gold added to the monetary stocks.
One of these periods followed the dis
covery of America when the treasures
of Mexico and Peru were exploited.
The other was in the years following
the discovery of gold in California and
Australia. In each case a mighty i'm
pulse was given to the exploitation of
virgin fields of development. 1t is not
improbable that the next few years
will witness the expansion of the field
of commercial enterprises into new
places. Countries that are CONNER
cially and industrially backward will
yield to this important influence. At
our hand is South America on one
side and China and Japan on another.
Beyond are Africa, the other Asiatic
countries, and eastern Europe. The
Yankee rapidly is awaking to their
commercial possibilities. If he will
have an influx of gold more than am
pie to sutsain the credit operations for
his domestic affairs he will look to
new fields of exploitation. The wider
use of credit which these new fields
will develop in turn probably will alb
sorb the increasing gold stock in be-
neficent uses, preventing it from ever
becoming a serious menace to bust
