THE GROWING TRADE WITH BREMEN.

Consul Looming, Of Bremen, In report on the
commerce OF that port, shows that the value OF The
imports from the United States has increased from
3d. O63 $50 in 1877 TO $l2 ISL ,312 in 1887 and the
exports the United States increased from Sl6tO7
in 1871 to OO5S 10 in 1857. The imports from
the United States more than four times as great
as from Great Britain from Central and South
America combined while the exports to the United
States are four times great to Great Britain and
more than nine times as great as to Centrai anu
South America combined. The values OF some OF
the articles imported from the United States IN 1851
were as follows cotton, 500 800 an increase OF
more than go 900 600 1886 petroleum, So 49,
oS5 gain of about $500. 600; tobacco, S5,442ooo
a loss of 81 $4,000; lard 81 ,244 900, gain oil
$4,000 The imports Of Indian corn fell OIL from
ss02,227 in 1856 TO $57o,557 in 1887, but the I'M
ports Of wheat increased from about S4Sooo 10
s4O9 OOO of -four from $4,000 to S15o,ooO, ana OF
lumber from S150OO0 to 100000. The Imports OF
cotton goods declined from $4,000 to $4,000, out
woOlen goods increased from Sl9,OOo 10 @ooiooo'
The Consul remarks
The trade this year up to June 80 shows plainly the
importance o, Bremen the Continental cotton market
There have great Improvements made here III the
handling storing of cotton, and hear of no complaints
this year in regard. Large warehouses have oeen
built and the unloading and storing has been greatly
facilitated and improved a special reduced railroad
tariff on cotton been obtained thus enabling Bremen
TO compete with other Continental ports, whose water
routes the interior always placed Bremen to disanVan'
age in respect owing TO its unfortunate geographical
location [ can say to merchants that they
will do well to their attention TO Bremen There
has been as yet no importation OF Russian petroleum into
Bremen but there tank steamer loading at Baoum
with about 20 900 barrels OF refined oil for Bremen
There danger be apprehended here OF Russian OIL
competing seriously with the American.
Out of 1887 vessels with total of 1.444,6 63 tons
only one vessel OF 1,27o tons carried the American
flag while two ships with total tonnage of 1859
tons flew the flag of Greece. The total emigration
via Bremen last year 99350 of which 96.944
individuals sailed for the United States, but 9,3Sl

Pacific Navigation Company for long monopollz'

to be derived by residents and merchants in
these countries from such arrangement will be very
considerable and the company will be given the prefer

Peru abroad whose capital has been employed IN the
undertakings to the Government at Lima. To the gen
eral disappointment and the Department was duly in
formed this proposal known as the Grace Aranoar con
tract was acted upon By Congress at is last session
owing to certain anmadversons made against several OF
the clauses by the Government Of Chill and although
the President at opening OF the Congress now in
session did the contract in his Inauguration

OF Lima from the circumstance that as not only the
Gillian but British Government has interested itse
in the matter, the communication made by the Executive

ALUM BAKING POwDE2s,
Declared Adulterated Food ami Thei


Declared Adulterated Food ami Their
Sale Illegal.
The result of trial just conc! aided at
Canton, N. Y, before Judge Kellogg, will
have salutary effect in checking the 50 Q
of one class of adulterated food. T 20
men named Moon aud Akerill were ar.
re ted for selling adulterated baking pow
der In violation OF the State food adultera-
ton act. The indictment was for beth
selling baking powders that were inferior,
sdulterated and injurious to health by
reason of being made from alum, aud :or
selling them under pretense that they
were wholesome cream of tartar baking
powder. A stubborn defence was made,
the claim being set up that baking pow
ders were not rt'cles Of TODD,
and that the powder the defendants
were selling. which was known as Gilletts
was a standard article of trade, and that
alum baking powders inferior to it, like
Davis and. others, were being sold by other
dealers in the same town without complaint
The Court held that baking powders were
articles of food within the meaning Of the
law, and the Jury found the defendants
guilty upon all the charges. The case las
attr lcted much attention from being the
first brought under the State Food Adult
teration Act against dealers in alum baking
powders. The result of the trial is to class
such baking powders as adultersted articles
of food and to make their sale illegal, There
are many alum baking powders put up in
cans. under some name or brand, in add
ton to those sold in bulk, the sale Of all of
which cautious dealers will probably be
unwilling to continue.
