fishes the following summary Of an official report re-
Gently submitted 10 the French Government:
an Maurice Ducos has Just returned 10 France
from a trip the United States, where he bad been
sent by the French Government on special mission
to study the questions relating TO the trade In salt
meats and the organization OF the service OF sanitary
Inspection OF these meats for expectation. Mr. Duclos
for two months has been visiting the seapors and the
principal centres OF observation-disclosures, kansas CITY,
Cincinnati, lie has Just handed lse report 10 the
Minister OF Commerce. lie first examines the general
situation OF commerce In the United states and the
relation of that country with France. He shows that
in 1891 as TO imports France occupied the fourth
rank but that she occupied the thd In regard 10 the
total amount OF transactions, including imports and
exports. The report then discusses the countries Of
which the United states Is GOOD customer, and also
those which are tile best customers Of the United
states Brazil is the one which draws the largest
benefit from It's relations with America, mainly on
account OF It's cOiee. IL results from the ingenious
comparisons explained in the report that France will
find every advantage In "A menageant treating fairly,
or keeping on good with, the United states, fof
the latter Is one OF the good customers Of France.
And reciprocay, the United should act In the
same way, SINCE France ranks the third purchaser
OF American products
al the United states decided upon maldng com
mercal treaties. England might be exacting TO the
conditions, since her commerce comprises hve-elghhs
Of American exports and imports, and pays for that
trade 70 the United states "A balance Of 100000
francs each year Germany, which buys one-thirl
more than France. and whose transactions with America
are evenly balanced, is also more favorably situated
for negotiation. still. France IS OF certain I'm
porance TO the United states, from which country she
buys largely. II Is well. however, TO consider that
the United States draws profit from It's relations
not only with England and Germany, but also with
belgium the Netherlands, and even with Portugal.
