the "Reichanszeiger," and these publications were but fragmentary and appeared irregularly in the earlier years, especially before 1889, and as, on the other hand, o y original materials can be employed for the preparation of reliable statistics, the above table can make no claim of completeness for the years before 1889.

A similar table covering the years 1888-1907 was prepared for the Commission by the Deutsche Oekonomist and will be found on a later page.
