GROWTH OF THE SILK TRADE

New York Imports 95 Per Cent of tha
Silk Coming to This Country.
The growth of the silk industry in
this country makes an interesting
study, says the Mail and Express. The
annual product of the American mills
is worth about 500, 0O0, 900. Not only
has there been a marked increase in re-
cent years in both the value and
amount Of production, but the mills
have produced classes of goods never
before attempted. Silk is now used
for such a great number of purposes
that its manufacture and importing has
grown to be a leading industry. In an
interview a New Yorker who is al au-
thority on everything pertaining to the
manufacture and importing of silk said
recently: I'VE can make anything in
the silk line that can be made in the
world and that there is a market for.
There are, however, certain high novel
ties that we NJ not make. One OF the
noteworthy features of the trade dur
ing the last decade is the decline in
the price of raw silk and the great
Improvement in nearly every depart
ment of machinery and appliances. The
silk imports at New York comprise
fully 50 per cent of the total value Of
silk imports in this country. The large
mills are all represented il New FORK,
so that the metropolis in this industry,
as in most others, is the center of distri.

Mr.. Herrin's estimate. He added that it
was manifest that the road was sadd1ed
with an indebtedness many millions of
dollars in excess of its value to-day.
The statement of Senator Stanford
was quoted to the effect that the entire
cost of the road should not have been
more than 70 per cent of what it actually
did cost, by reason OF its construction be-
ing pushed forward in inordinate haste.
Engineer Hcod's report to Senator Stan.
ford was also quoted, in which Mr.. Hood
said that if more time had been taken in
the building of the road, the entire road
could have been built for IS per cent less
than its actual cost.
The Southern Pacific of New Mexico ex-
pended 1857 1887 26 for additions and bet
terments, and but for those additions the
cost OF the road would have fallen below
its bonded indebtedness.
With reference to the sub ect of the net
profits of the roads in California for the
year 1894 the Acknowledgement said that
that year. by reason of the great railroad
strike and the tieup of the road for several
weeks in the busiest part of the green
deciduous fruit season, was far below the
average in business depression. He
showed that Notwithstanding the strike
the California roads realized net profit OF
81, $50, 1913.

the court took a recess until IL o'clock this
