OUR TRADE WITH SPAIN.
Great Decline By Reason of the Late
War.

Wal.
Washington, Sept. Sat the end of
the second month of the war with
Spain the effect of hostilities on Span
ish trade had been to depress it con-
siderably, as revealed in a report to the
department of state by Theodore Mer-
tens. United States consular agent at
Valencia. Ee says that in the month
of June there was a decline Of $9,S15,000
in the importatiOns, while the export
increased SO, 737 900, principally in raw
materials sought after from abroad on
account Of the low value of the peseta.
The consular agent urges that now that
the war is over American capital
should take advantage of the oppOrtu-
nifty to exploit Spanish trade before the
country RECEIVERS from its present in
ertia. lie believes that trade treaties
should be negotiated and that CONNER
cial enterprises should be organized to
do business in spain under concessions
that may be obtained. Many indus
rial enterprises might be opened by
Americans and made to pay well by in
telligent management, as evidenced by
the success Of the French capitalists
now entering the same field.
