OUR BEER RECORD.
The Production Last Year Greater Than
That of the Preceding.

On Nov. | of every year the organized
brewers of the country get from the in
ternal revenue bureau a statement in
detail of the brewing business of the
country, which yields $50, 900, 900 a
year i'll government taxes. This year S
figures are just at hand. The total con-
sumption of beer in the United States
for the present fiscal year-fgured up
to July WAS 33, 469, 661 barrels, an
increase over the consumption of year
ago of 191, 900 barrels. This years fig
ures, while in excess of those of last
year, are less than the total consumption
Of 1898, which was 33, S22, 672 barrels
A barrel of beer, in brewers measure,
is about 81 a gallons. The consumption
of lager beer in the United States is
therefore in excess of 1000, 900, 900 gal
lons These figures put the United
States abreast with Germany, supposed
by many to be the favored land of beer
drinkers, but still behind Great Britain,
which is at the head of all countries,
with an annual consumption of 1,200,-
600, 900 gallons.
The consumption Of beer throughout
the United States varies greatly. 1t is
largest in New York, Pennsylvania, H.
linois and Wisconsin, and least in the
southern and prohibition states. In Kan
sas, prohibition state, the sale of beer
last year footed up less than 5000 bar
rels, whereas, the total sales in the city
of Milwaukee were 10000 900 barrels.
There are in all 10, 900 breweries in
the world, of which nearly 80, 900 are
in Germany. Great Britain follows with
$4,000, and then the United States with
5000. 1t is one of the peculiarities of
the beer business, not found in the mer-
camille business generally, that the pro-
duction and the consumption of beer in
each country are substantially the same
In other words, there is very little COM
merce in beer. Only one country brews
more beer than it consumes. That is
Germany, Only one country consumes
more beer than it produces. That is
France In the United States the figures
of consumption and production are very
nearly the same, and the small difference
is due to the importation of German
beer, which has been observed during
the last five or six years The production
of American beer, of genuine and sd
mitted domestic manufacture, has in
creased so per cent since 1888.
These figures are for the fiscal and not
the calendar years, the business of brew
ers and distillers being regulated, in
this respect, by the bookkeeping of the
internal revenue bureau Of the United
States treasury department, which be-
gins fiscal year on July 1 and ends it

DR.. B. Fischer, bacteriologist Of the
1894 Plankton expedition, in his report
ON the microbes of the Sea, "says that
microbes capable of termination are ev-

merous in the Canary, Florida and Lab

HENDERSON OF IOWA.
He Will Probably Be Head of the Appro
priations Committee of the House.

He VIII Probably Be Head of the Appro-
priations Committee of the House.
Henderson of Iowa will probably be
chairman of the appropriations commit
tee. He was the ranking Republican on
the committee in the last congress, and
all things else being equal this would
suggest his selection. But besides being
the ranking Republican he is very
capable man and thoroughly familiar
with the work Of the committee. Ho is
a good debater, discreet and popular
and thoroughly familiar with fiscal af-
fairs.
Mr. Cannon of Illinois, who also is
a candidate for this chairmanship, was
chairman of the committee during the
Fifty first congress and is also familiar
with the question of appropriations, but
he has been out of congress since then,
and this break in his service put him
last in rank on the committee during
the last congress. This difference in
their rank marks the difference in the
force of their claims. There being no
known reason why General Henderson
should not be selected and his personal
relations with Mr.. Reed being extreme
ly friendly, the assumption is that he
will get the appointment.
In this view of the committee assign
ments it is believed that Dalzell will be
chairman of the judiciary committee. =

At the Turning of the Tide.

The present condition of the foreign
trade should bring gold into the coun-
try. Along to the present time the coun-
try has exported this year about $40,
600, 900 more gold than it has imported.
This is a large loss, but it has often been
exceeded. In the same time in 1894 the
loss was $66, 900, ,00O in 1899 it was
500, ,000,0 900 and in 1891 $68, 900, 000
The grain and cotton exports, now mod
erately heavy, at this season in most
years start flow of gold to this coun-
try, and it is reasonable to look for a
movement of this sort soon.~
