The shipments of British iron and steel
to this country in July were barely 80 per
cent. of those in June. The total shipments
to the United States from Great Britain of
all kinds of iron and steel in July we're only
"a, 1886 gross tons, against l,230 tons in
June. In April last these exports were 234,
ALB tons, being the largest shipments OF the
kind ever made to this country 10 one month.
The total exports in July to this country
represented but little over one.tourth OF the
April shipments. Previous to the month OF
August, 1879, the exports of British iron
and steel to the United States had for several
years been somewhat insignifi antin quantity,
and the complete cessation of the trade was
as despondently anticipated on the other
side of the Atlantic as it was confidently ex-
pected here. In June and July, 1879, the
shipments amounted to only 1895 and 81
O96 tons respectively. About that tlme;'
however American prices OF iron and steel
rose to a point which made importation
probable, and orders were sent to Great
Britain and elsewhere for all sorts of iron and
steel. In August the shipments began to
swell; trade entered upon the memorable
boom; from month to month Great Britain
sent ia larger and larger quantities OF iron
and steel. In consequence OF the heavy I'M
portstions the boom collapsed in February;
1880 but the enormous purchases abroad
could not at once be countermanded, and the
maximum of our trade with Great Britain
was not reached until the month Of April.
since then the shipments from the other side
Of the Atlantic have fallen off rapidly, until unit
tho july shipments Of 1880 are very little
above the August shipments Of 1879.

The Dallas, CIeburne a Rio Grapde
Railroad.

BY invitation of the Dallas board of trade,
the visiting gentlemen interested in the con-
struction of a railroad from Dallas to Gle
burne, thence on TO the Mexican line, and ac-
compsnied by committee from the board
of trade, drove through this city and its
suburbs on yesterday. They were shown,
and some of them saw for the first time,
fields of cotton in bloom, and other things
peculiar to this section. After reaching n
high point near the Carruth farms, fine
panoramic view of the city and surrounding
country was obtslned. Returning, the party
paid visit to the cotton seed oil works, and
under the attentive courtesy Of Mr.. Presi-
dent Gibson, were taken through that great
and creditable establishment. There they saw
the cotton seed to go through its various and
several processes, as II came from the field
down TO It's final conversion into oil cake ana
oil. Some idea of the importance of this en-
terprise may be obtained when it is remem'
bered that its capacity is about one hundred
tons of seed per day, and fifty barrels ofoil.
The cake residuum is shipped north and to
Europe for cattle food, The cotton ginning
was feature which specially interested the
gentlemen. Proceeding from the oil factory
the next place visited was the ice works
where the manufacturing of the "frigid"
was seen with detailed explanations OF the
process. Thence the party returned to town
and stopped at the compress on Austin street,
but which unfortunately was not at work. A
$50 pound bale, however, was in the "iron
jaws" lying az sweetly "press d. as ever fair
Dulcnea rested in beatifc quietude in the arms
of her sdoring one. Thence by invitation of
the "Bosrd of Trade" tbroughits committee
and special managers, Messrs Purdee and
Randall, than whom no more liberal men
ever attended the "bar" on the Trinity waters
or elsewhere, the entire party were chspe-
roned and introduced to Messra. Mumm,
Heidsick & Co., under whose influence the
dry and dusty were infinitely relieved. The
visitors expressed themselves as highly
pleased with this second Chicago, with the
attentions they had received, and tie infor-
NATION they had bad impaired to them. A
conference with the board oftrade directory
was had last night, the result of which is
elsewhere given.
