SURPRISING RESULTS
iouble Benefit Worked by the
American Policy.
IIenN Increase I'm Exports and n Corr
responding Decrease In Imports
Under the DingIey TnrIn Up
to- September, $50. 1SDS.

Protection works a double benefit and
produces some surprising results. An
increase OF over 100000, 900 in exports
and a decrease OF over SiOO,OOO,OOO in
imports is the record of our foreign
commerce for the nine months ending
September 80, 1s9S. compared with the
corresponding nine months OF the pre-
ceding year. No corresponding period
in any year of the country's history has
shown such record. No other country
has ever equaled this record.
The total exports of the nine months
ending September 80. ls9s. are prac-
tically twice as great rs those of 1858.
while the imports show reduction OF
12h per cent, as compared with 1SSs,
despite the growth of our population in
the meantime. The imports of -mer-
chandise i'm the nine months just ended
are less than in any corresponding pc
riod since 1855, when the consuming
capacity of the country was but little
more than half what il now is. The
gains in all classes OF production have
been enormous during the past decade.
The exports OF the product of the mines
which for the nine months ending Sep
TENDER 30, 1898, are in round numbers
500 600 900, have increased more than
80 per cent. since 1855. Exports of the
productions of the forests, which were
S1s.775.141 in the corresponding nine
months of 1855, are in the nine months
just ended S30.775,57s. Agricultural
