The most convincing evidence of the ire
mendous commercial strength of our position
is found in the fact that Great Britain and
| Spain have found 1t necessary to make recip-
rocal trade agreements with us for their West
have given us Important concessions in ex-
| change for the continued free importation of
| their beet-sugar product.
few details only as to the increase in our
| trade can be given here. Taking all the coun-
tries with which arrangements have been
made our trade to June so, 1892, had increased
| 23.7S per cent; with Cuba during the first ten
months our exports increased s.. 1913 or 54.S
/ per cent; and with Porto Rico S59O,59 or "a
| per cent. The liberal participation OF our
| farmers in the benefits OF this policy is shown
| by the following report from our Consul Gen
erSi at Havana under date OF july a5, y last
ceived i4O056 bags OF flour from Spain and
other ports of the island about an equal
' OF approx nd aTUiz esgsi ~ aTs
bags Of American flour and other ports approx.
tmately an equal amount, making about 2s,OOO
bags
| But for the first half of this year Spain has
| sent less than /, 600 bags to the whole island
and the United States has sent to Havana
| alone 1853 4S7 bags and about an equal amount
| to other ports of the island, making approx
mately 1857, 600 for the first half of 1897.
| Partly by reason of the reciprocal trade
| agreement but more largely by reason of the
| removal OF the sanitary restrictions against
| American pork, our export of pork products to
| Germany Increased during the ten months
| ending June 80 last $2025,074 or about 80 per
| cent.
