ORIENTAL TRADE.
A Movement to Extend American Inter-

A Movement to Extend American Inter-
ests In the Far East.
Boston. June Alan important move
ment, having for its object the conserva-
ton of American trade in the far east,
has been set on foot by Boston mer-
chants. Prominent representatives OF
trade nave held meetings and an Ameri-
can-Asiatic association has been formed
for the purpose, as stated in Its constitu-
ton, OF Fostering and safeguarding the
commercial interests of the citizens OF the
United States and others associated there
in with the empires of China, Japan and
Corea, the Philippines and elsewhere in
Asia or Oceanica."
The project has been under discussion
for some time and IL the outcome OF the
aggressive attitude on the part OF Eu-
ropean countries, which have OF late
menaced American commercial interests
in the Orient.
It is the intention Of the association to
secure the advantages Of sustained
watchfulness and readiness of a0ion.
which will issue from watchful and per-
manent organization in all matters in
connection with Asiatic trade or legisla-
ton or treaties affecting the same, and
to provide for convenient ascertainment
and distribution OF Information affecting
the interests of it's members.
II is believed that this organization,
consisting OF representative firms engaged
in exporting goods to the countries named.
cannot fail to be a valuable acquisition In
promoting trade in a direction where.
though the United States has made con-
siderable Roadway, are still far behind
commercial rivals
The promoters consider that the oppor-
tunities for extensive transactions in the
far east are beyond those presented in
any other quarter.
