NEW YORK, Jan. S.--From an
economic point Of view, the most in
teresting occurrence OF the day was
the ordering OF $4,000, 900 gold for ex-
port to Europe. In view OF the fact
that We ourselves were lately taking
gold from London on legitimate CON-
mercial basis OF exchange, and that
We withheld such orders only In defer
ence TO the urgent solicitations of the
English market, this turn OF events
may seem anomalous. The present
export operation is, however, similar
in nature to our suspension OF gold
imports In December The actual in
ternational balance is still In New
Yorks favor, and so is the rate Of
foreign exchange; but Paris, which,
for well-known reasons, needs the
geld, Is virtually bidding for it--as the
same market died In February OF last
year.
None OF the markets was yisibly In
fHeHeed by this gold export announce
lnent. On our stock exchange, anoth-
er fractional advance occurred In the
earlier hours, Offset by irregular re-
actions later.
The foreign exchange market was
naturally unsettled by the gold export
engagements, but exchange ruled most
OF the day firm at level slightly
above that which prevailed az yester-
days close.
