limitations of American Manufactures

limitations of American Manufactures
Consuls have become weary of calling
attention to frauds dangerous to the
trade of the United States which are
conducted on a gigantic scale in
Europe The Germans reproduce
American sewing machines, stoves and
all sorts of tools, substituting iron for
steel. They mark them with the
names and brands of Yankee manu-
lacturers and send them to South
America, Africa and all over the world.
Though of wretChed quality they are
cheap and actually crowd out the real
American goods. In this fashion iron
machetes are substituted for our steel
ones in South America, and Colts and
Remington revolvers are burlesqued
as one might say, in the cheapest pos.
sible materials. American machines
are taken apart and the pieces are
copied with iron castings, which are
put together TO form clumsy counter
feits This is done with all of the
finest agricultural implements
The limitations lead the observer tc
speculate as to the probable period Of
time during which the world would
have been without such useful inven-
tons if it had been left to Europeans
to discover them. Ingenious Britlshers
are making counterfeits of Yankee
textile fabrics, and the looms Of Man
chester are turning out millions of
yards of cotton annually which bear
the names and brands of American
manufacturers. These Cottons are
marketed in China because the Chinese
have liking for products of this sort
from the United States. They are very
heavily "sized" with white of egg tc
give them a good appearance. OF
course the "sizing" does not stand a
wash. One consul in China has sug-
gested that an umbrella should be sold
with each bolt of such cottons, mas
much as lady who happens to be
caught by shower in a nice cotton
dress too often comes home wearing q
mosquito bar.
In the same way American sheetings
muslins and calicoes are being driven
out of Central American markets by
wretched goods made from East

A Prophet That Failed.

The ladies that were with the Gould
party - Mrs. Edwin Godld, Mrs
Shrady and Mrs. DIR. Harris - are
telling of how they barely escaped a
couple of wild western adventures on
the trip from which they have just re.
turned. AS their private car rolled
into Arkansas the train was behind
time. If it hadn't been, it would prob,
ably have been in kindling wood long
before now, for just couple of hours
ahead of them cloudburst and cyclone
came along and wiped everything NOV
able off the face of that part of Arkan.
sas. When this story is told, the
Goulds chuckle as they think of State
Treasurer Stevens of Missouri. The
world knows how Mr. Stevens was on
a train which was robbed.
That afternoon the Gould train stood
in the St. Louis station on the next
track to Mr.. Stevens train. Mr..
Stevens paid the Goulds call in their
car and as he was leaving assured the
ladies they could subdue their fears as
to train robbers, "as," said he there
are no such things now in Missouri as
train robbers. You're safe enough"
Mr. Stevens stepped into his train,
which went the way the Goulds had
lust come, and in less than two hours
was stopped by train robbers, The
Goulds went in an opposite direction,
and the next morning the first thing
they heard of was Mr.. Stevens little
encounter.-Ne7o York Press.
