FIELD FOR AMERICANS.
Kingdom of Siam Offers Splendid OPP
portunities For Trad


Washington, March 16.-In his vale
dictory report to the state department,
John Barrett, the retiring minister resi-
dent and consul general at Bangkok.
says that not more than six representa-
tiveS of American houses have visited
Siam during the last three and one
half years. Those who went there re-
celVed orders enough to pay their eX-
penSeS. During the same time no less
than loo capable representatives of Eu-
ropean firms have visited, and in 90
per cent of the cases have worked up
a good trade. After a residence of four
years in Siam, Minister Barrett is
convinced that there is the best pos
sibie opportunity for the United States
to build up large trade there. In
speaking of the future prospects of
Siam, Mr.. Barrett says:
would say that the permanent
prosperity and independence of the
country depend upon the developments
of the next few years. The king-Chu-
ialong korni-haS just returned from
an extended trip to Europe. in which
he must have seen and learned much
that will assist him in improving his
own Kingdom. He is a man who has
the respect of foreigners and natives
alike. He is easily the ablest states
man OF Siam, and well fitted to be its
ruler 10
Siam is making marked progress
ana, after Japan, is more open t0>new
IDEAS than any other Asiatic nation.
American exporters and manufacturers
should do all in their power to estab-
ilsh and maintain large and lucrative
trade with Siam"
