RUSSIANS RESIST EXPORTS TO GERMANY Laborers and Railroad Men Check Large Movements of Goods Which Russia Needs. STOCKHOLM.

Sept. 12. Associated rreas.) German dispatcher received In Sweden speak of the commercial agreement between Germany and Soviet Russia In the same general terms as those employed by the Bolshevist press. These dispatches maintain the same decree of secrecy concerning the details aa that which M. Joffe.

the BoUhevlst Ambassador, preserved when be made his flying trip from Berlin to Moscow to complete the agreement. The masses In Russia were dlsplaed by the arrangement, because they knew it contemplated the sale of goods badly needed by the Russians, and especially the transfer to Germany of the fabrics which the Soviet Government had confiscated in great quantities In Moscow and Tetrograd. The Germans also are apparently dissatisfied with the agreement because their efforts to ship goods have been so fiercely resisted, and they believe Ger many will have the same trouble in this case that she encountered In the Ukraine. In other words, they aem to feel that the Bolshevik I do not expect tO abide by their treaty. Even before Maria Splrtdonova made her exposures concerning the German plans to deprive, Russia of the cloth.

leather, and food it needa so badly, the Russian laborers and rallvay men were effectively checking large "movements of goods to Germany. In Petrograd the dock laborers refused to load ships with coods that were billed for Sweden but clearly Intended for the Germans. Trainmen sidetracked suspected cars and refused to haul them to Pskov. Less than a month ago Bolshevist troops at Orsha rioted because a train- load of cloth was about to pass across the German lines, asserting that they would advertise the fact throughout Russia If the Germans persisted in tak ing away Russian fabrics. The situation became so grave that the Germans abandoned their plan to ship the fHrics.

Knull ahlDments may slip through, but the large consignments escape the labor- era wltu oiincuuy ana ine circumminm are so widely discussed at meetings that even the close press censorship does not prevent wide publicity. For some time the Bolshatlst officials defended shipments to lrmsny on the ground that the foodstuffs and cloths were for Russian prisoners, but the returned prisoners told such terrible stories of their privations that the Bases refused to accept the explanation, which was denounced as a pretext of corrupt officials charged vtlth passing goods for a consideration. Millions of yards of cloth are locked In the Moscow and Tetrograd storehouses, closely watched by agitators, and the Soviet Government risks its existence tf It allows the Oermana to ahip n-holesale. loj at a time when the masses are clothed In rags and are facing the approach of 'Winter thus and without bread and fuel. The Russian public is In the dark aa to the gold payments the Sovlete agreed to make to Germany.

The rumored amount varies from ruMea. The whereabouts of the Russian gold reserve Is a mystery and many bankera doubt whether any considerable amount remains to meet the German claims. The State Kmnlr has not made a complete report alnca the Bolshevik! aelsed the Government and the statements of tho Minister cf Finance mad so far are described by Russian bankers as "a Hat of liabilities on one side of the sheet and printing presses on the other." No authoritative statement Is available aa to the actual amount of paper money In circulation, but the sum la prohably not less than 50.0fO.000.Csi0 rubles. When the Bolshevik! evacuated Pe'ro- rrai last February a train was sent to IN'lxhnl-Novgorod carrying various securities of the State Bank and mon-v, the whole being said to amount to rubles. The Bolshevlkl boasted that this was the richest tram on record.

These securltlea undoubtedly have been scattered widely because f.f the repeated political uprisings In Xshnl-Novgorod. and the value of many of the securities la prohnblv doubtf'il because of the absolute industrial paralysis of tha country.
