German Demands Refused

The last German offer during the German-Rumanian trade negotiations amounted to a demand by Germany to acquire a practical monopoly of Rumanian exports, With M. Tatarescu in office, there is no likelihood of such an offer being accepted, The downfall of the Argetoianu Cabinet was precipitated by the resignation of M. Bujoiu, Minister of National Economy, who found it im-Possible to reconcile some German methods of trading and German demands with the present system of foreign trade in Rumania, and asked the Government to agree to a new system of Rumanian exports and imports, This was not accepted, and he resigned.

Little is said to have been gained from the visit of the German delegation, which has now returned to Berlin.—Reuter.
