The imports of iron ore into Germany and Luxemburg in 1894<br />

amounted to 2,093,007 tons, and the exports to 2,558,729 tons.<br />

Coal.—The following table, for which we are chiefly indebted<br />

to Dr. Wedding, gives the aggregate production of coal and lignite<br />

in Germany and Luxemburg from 1848 to 1894, in metric tons.<br />

Of the total production of coal and lignite in 1893 there w„.<br />

ere<br />

21.573,823 tons of brown coal, or lignite, and of the total pro<br />

duction in 1894 there were 22,103,446 tons of brown coal. Germany<br />

is both au importer and exporter of coal.<br />

Pig Iron.—The production of pig iron in Germany and Luxemburg<br />

in 1844 is said by Dr. Wedding to have amounted to<br />

only 171,000 metric tons, and Herr Pechar says that in 1848 it<br />

amounted to 205,342 tons. It was not until 1866 that the production<br />
