TION OF IRON AND STEEL.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, July 30.-Of the remark
able growth in United States expectations
of manufactures during the fiscal year Just
ended that of the manufactures of iron and
steel is the most striking. The total in
crease in exports of manufactures during
the year, as shown by the figures OF the
Treasury Bureau of Statistics, Is in round
numbers s4S00o, 900, and Of this increase s2S,-
100000 Is in manufactures of iron and steel.
The total exports if iron and steel and man
ufactures thereof in the fiscal year 1899 were
ss3 1851 against $40 co. ss5 in 1885, 57is7,sl2
in 1887, sl,160S77 in 1886, Sc, 0O09S9 IN 1855.
and s29. 900, 2s4 in 1894 1t will thus lie seen
that the exports of manufactures OF iron
and steel in 1899 were more than double
those of 1896 and NOR, than tntee times
as much as those Of 1894 On the CtEer
hand. the imports of manufactures OF iron
and steel continue to fall, having hean dur
ing the year but s12.09s239. against ssS.SSs.l o3
in 1896 and $53,544,372 in 1891. Thus, while
the exports of iron and steel have been
steadily growing the imports have falier,
SO that they are now less than one-half
what they were in 1896 and about one-fifth
what they were in 1S3l.
and steel have shared in the growth of
popularity abroad, bit this is especially
marked in the higher grades OF mani fac
lures, such as steel rails. railway engines,
builders hardware. machinery of all sorts
and especially Those used III manufacturing.
The number of railway engines exported
during the year was 5l7. against z6s N ICY,
sss in 1897, PSI in 1885, 252 in 1895 and 142
in 1894, while the value Of the exports OF
locomotives in 1899 was A.72s.74S. against
81 OBS 236 in 1894.
OF the 81 railway locomotives exported
during the year 80 went to Russia, % vent
to Japan, 81 to China, 50 to Mexico. 30 TO
Canada, So TO British East Indies, % 70 Eng
Ia TO the West Indies. and IL TO Africa. one
Interesting feature Of this large expectation
of locomotives in 1899 is that 2l1 OF the oil
exported went to Asiatic countries.

year 1885, compared with those Of the pre-

nifty now. IL may be that the families of the
dead men may make demands for indemnity
