MANlLA'S COMMERCE..
The United States Interests Greater Than
All other Nations Combined.

Washington, May 1.-The understand
ing at the state department is that Consul
Oscar F. Williams, our representative at
Manila until the recent war began, is
now aboard the flagship Olympia in
Manila harbor, having accompanied
Dewey from Hong Kong so that advices
may come from him to the state depart
ment as well as from Commodore Dewey
to the navy department.
A mail report from Consul Williams
reached the state department recently
under date Manila, February IS, last.
II gives a full description of the Philip
pine Islands, their resources, growth of
American trade, etc. Mr.. Williams re-
port says:
Local and European authorities esti-
mate the area of the Philippine Islands at
100000 square miles and their population
at 5000, 900. The Island of Luzon, on
which the city of Manila is situated, is
larger than New York and Massa-
chusetts and has population of 100000,
and the Island of Mndanao is nearly if
not quite as large. There are scores of
other islands. An idea of the extent of
the population of the Philippines may be
formed when it is stated that the six
New England states and New Jersey,
Delaware and Maryland have ten pei
cent less area and population"
| Mr.. Williams states that % consulates
representing the leading commercial
countries of the world, are established al
Manila. He adds the surprising state.
ment: 1.-THE volume of the export trade
coming under my official supervision
equals that of my 81 consular colleague;
combined.
He then shows in detail how the trade
of the Philippines with the United States
exceeds that of all other countries com
bined and is growing at a remarkable
rate. AS indicating the extent of this
trade, he says: To-day have authen
ticated invoices for export to the United
States amounting to Sl3S, 066."
He says the exports to this country
average 81 900 900 month. The repor
states that 2lG,000 bales of hemp wer,
exported during the last three months
OF these 1879 went to the United
States and $4,000 to Great Britain anC
other countries.
Mr.. Williams shows from this tina
the United States has Ga per cent o
the export trade from the Philippines a
against 36 per cent for Great Britain anC
other countries. He says that last yea
the increase of shipments to the United
States was 1873, 900 bales and the decreas,
to Great Britain $4,000 bales. lie adds /:
"Of increase shipments from the Phil
ppines, those to the United States wer,
81 per cent greater than all the coun
tries combined" He gives details of tn
large shipments of sugar, cigars, tobac
co, woods, hides, shells, indigo and cot
fee. in the item of sugar, which is sec
ond in Importance, the shipme nts to tn
United States were 90 per cent of tn
total to all points.

A New swlndle.

A new scheme to rob the farmer has
recently been put into practice. A
couple of men drive on the premises and
present false papers purporting to give
authority for the examination of wells
and cistern under the pure food laws.
They inspect the water through a mi
croscope, find all kinds of microbes,
bacteria, germs and typhoid fever bugs,
permit the farmer and his wife to look In
the microscope they carry and of course
they see the menagerie that always will
be obtained in drop of water. The
frightened farm folks are then advised to
apply certain remedies, which the faklrs
sell to them at high figure, a little plain
soda and nothing more, and then go on
their swindling way.-Exchange.

 BnsiReSss

The usefulness of the money order system has been widely ex- tended by new order just issued by the postal authorities. Hereto fore money orders have been drawn in one city upon another. Hereafter citizens can purchase money order, payable in the same town.
 The ways in which money orders can bs made use of under the new rrIe are numerous.

If 1t is lost he obtain duplicate.
 Money orders can be used instead of checks by those who have no bank accounts. If one wishes 10 send money to creditor in the same town he can buy 8 money order for the amount.

1T may surprise you to hear that Tn spite of the millions of modern guns and rifles nowadays turned out, the ancient fiintlock is not quits thing of the past. There is still in England at feast one manu- factory of hints for this use. The fints are all made by hand, being placed on the operators knee and clipped with hammer to the proper shape. Of course, a number of these fiints are used for fire making. These go principally to countries like Spain and Italy, where ths duties on ordinary matches and wax matches are so high as to convert them from the absolute necessity they are in Great Britian to posi- tive luxury, 50 that flint and steel are used.
