TRADE With AUSTRIA
The United States a Very Inn
portant Factor.
FALLING OFF IN IMPORTS
Goods Manufactured Here Sold in
Europe-The American Bicycle. Cut
Glass and Silks in Demand
Over There.

Washington. Sept. 25.-The United
States consul at Vienna. in a report to
the state department on the trade of
Austria-Hungary for 1897. ascribes the
general decrease in exports to this
country to the fact that the same goods
are now manufactured in the United
States and can be sold there at the
same or lower prices than the Austrian
goods. The report is that American silk
Is being sold in Lyons. the real silk CEN
ter in Europe, and that French manu-
facturers are buying it in large quanti-
ties. and practically that used for lin.
ing purposes, to take the place of that
formerly imported from Austria and
Germany. There is falling Off in tha
demand for pearl goods and for glass
ware, due to the popularity and su-
pertority of the American product 1t
Is frankly admitted. the consul says,
that the American cut glass is finer and
more elegantly cut than any manufac-
tured in Europe. The American bicycle,
according to the consul. is finding fa-
vor with the wheelmen. Notwithstanding
Its higher price over those of domestic
make. He thinks that IL the United
states manufacturers desire to get
their wheels into the foreign market
they should be satisfied with a little less
profit and try to make easier terms for
their agents. The wheels sent from
America are generally without mud
guards. brakes and other necessities.
and the agent is put to the additional
expense and trouble of supplying them.
There is a growing demand for Ameri-
can canned goods, but high prices pre-
vail because the goods go through the
hands of middlemen.
The consul at Antwerp. Belgium, re-
ports that the exports from that coun-
try to the United States in 1896 were
valued at SO. .437, 700 an increase of per
cent over the preceding year and the
imports direct from the United States
in 1896 were valued al s37, ,504. 500, an in
crease OF 81 per cent. over 1885 An i'm
portant increase in the consumption Of
beer Is noted, amounting to about 81
gallons per capita. Figures are also pre-
sented showing a large increase in i'm
portations in a number of articles from
the United States for the first eight
months OF the fiscal year 1897. over the
corresponding period of 1896. notably in
starch and non-edible products, timber,
rye, barley, oats. corn and buckwheat
From Ghent consular district report
OF the commerce for 1896 says the cotton
mills are employing more and more
American cotton. The demand for the
raw material is annually increasing by
reason Of the larger number of spindles
set in motion. The Importation of
American hardware on the market
shows considerable increase. The in
OF American bicycles was
also marked during 1896 and with pres
ent quotations United States manufac-
turers will strongly compete with their
foreign rivals.
