The total gold imports for the year were 830,607, and the total exports £101, 088 - It is noted anent the exportation of gold that it was at no point accompanied with a rate of exchange above $4.833{ and that on October 15 and 19, 1804, there were two shipments to Germany of £500,000 each, with the rate of exchange at 4 87% and $ 8724.

The contraction In the amount of money (paper and metallic) in elreulation i Letween the same periods amounted to $103,428,783, due mainly to the exportation i of gold. It may be sald in this connection that grave doubts are arising in the minds of economists as to whether the actual amount of gold, in the form of coin and available Lullion, in the United States Is not largely yve:estimated. There is a fesling that the actual figures are fully §50,000,000 less than the estimates, Director Preston believes that not less than £50,000,000 in gold was taken from the world’s prod uetion for ladustrial consump- tion in 1893, while of sliver it is estimated that 663,000 kilograms, of the commercial value of £16,622 980, was similarly used in the same year. He places the world's in- iustrial consumption of gold for 1594 at over $52 00),000, whi e the consumption of silver he places at over $33,000,000, These figures, he declares, must stil be considered too low. The world’s gold product has steadily in- creased from $105,774 920 In 1887 to #170. 965,600 1884, the Inerease for 1504 over being larger than that of any other It is noted, too, that the world's woloage of gold has {or three years largely outrun the world's production, the exoms being placed at $26,000,000 for 1802 $75. - 000,000 for 1803 and €46,000,000 lor 1804 vil a. {3 in 18393 year, DEATH OF PROF.
