PERU's TRADE PROSPECTS.
Advice to American Manufacturers
From Consul MOna@shan-

Consul Monaghan at Chemnitz has sent
a communication 10 the State Department
concerning the prospects OF increasing
American trade in Peru. and giving some
interesting statistics and advice TO the i'm
porters. He says;
German textile journals are telling the
cloth makers of the Empire TO take their
wares TO InquitOs, capital of the province
Of LOyeto in Peru. Situated near the head
waters OF the Amazon, il is easily ap-
preached Inhabited by an energetic and
enteTpTising population and has all the
conditions necessary 10 make it q great
trade centre on the Pacific. { few mills
make buckskins cheviots blankets etc
but because Of the enormous cost OF
frelghtage over the Andes sales are local.
Up to the present, the demand for Ger
man goods has been confined TO manufaCt-
ured articles. Among these are mOleskius
woolen and cotton blankets cotton and
silk Iaces. and summer wOrsteds. in the
last. a large business has been built up.
Cotton hose black and in cOIors have sold
Wen. Cotton prints. patterns that went
ten years ago from Manchester. still find
favor.
The trade is not confined 70 bright col

are in demand England sends large
quantities of nettings tmCsguitOi. tulles

napkins, towels linen and cotton hand
kerchiefs white drills. gray domestics,
gray linen drills, Hessians. and sajicloths
Large quantities OF colored cottons for
shirts rs well as ready-made shirts are
going in. Colored paiamas and various
kinds OF underwear are imported from
England and Germany. Switzerland sends
hammocks. cords for hamuocks handker-
chiefs These are great fayorites with
the natives in their national dance The
United States sends cotton goods especial

White drill pantaloons are sent from

Portuguese. there is no doubt that fairly
profitable business can be built up Small
shipments of samples with a guaranty
that goods will go in equal 70 or better
than samples. is an excellent way 10 win
favor in those countries.
1t is in such markets the United States
should win its greatest success In South

Miss Elizabeth willard in "a Thrill

New York, Feb. iS-Mrs. Allen Fitch. of
So West Fifty-sixth Street. the wife of the
well known insanity expert. and Miss Eliz-
abeth Willard OF Washington, were leav-
ing the Waldorf Astoria yesterday
afternoon in Mrs. Fitchs carriage when
the horses ran away toward Broadway.
Williams, the coachman. held on TO the
TeIns and tried to check the animals but
could only keep them in the middle OF tn
street northbound electric car was ap-
preaching the crossing at Herald Square
at full speed as the runaway reached that
point and TO every spectator a collision
seemed inevitable. Williams saw the dan
ger, and throwing his full force into the
enort, managed TO turn the team 10 the
right, though the sharp turn almost upset
the carriage. The change OF direction was
so sudden, however, that Patrick McCoE-
mick, contractor, who was crossing Sixth
Avenue had no chance to get out OF the
way of the carriage. He was knocked
down and run over. The team was stopped
d moment later by Policeman Burns
Mccormick was picked up unconscious
and taken to the New York Hospital. 1t
was found that his right hip had been dis
located and that he had suffered internal
injuries. Mrs. Fitch and Miss Willard
were badly scared, but not injured The

ALGER ACCUSED BY LABOR.
Charged With HeinG "a Friend of the
sweatslIOps.

New York. Feb. 1S.-The World" SAYS
There is anger among the labor leaders
over what they declare is bad faith upon
say that he promised that the making OF
uniforms for the United States Army in
the yilest. filthest places in New York.
sweatshops that are worse than those
which the law has tried to stamp out.
should be stopped.
Not long ago President Gompers. Of the
American Federation OF Labor. and Samuel
AntleT. General Treasurer OF the United
Garment Makers of America. had q con-
ference with Secretary Alger in Washing
about the places in which uniforms were
being made. They say that General Aiger
declared that 'sweatshops must go so
far IS uniforms for the United States sol
dieTs was concerned.
The labor leaders endeavored 10 make
sure that the contracts for making uni
forms should be given 10 reputable firms
who manufacture clothing under clean and
healthy conditions. The Secretary ordered
an Investigation, but it doesn't seem 10
have amounted 10 anything.
Henry Wachmau, OF the Executive Board
Of the United Garment Workers of Ameri-
ca, said yesterday: The members of the
organization have learned that the uui-
forms for the soldiers OF the United States
are being made in dens. in the dirtiest eel
lars and garrets, in the worst tenements
in the city, places that are fIthier than
the reular tenement house sweatshops
They are made by The most ignorant peo-
pie who work for starvation wages.
The regulation blue army trousers are
made by men and women who get 10 cents
pair. the lowest price ever received in
this country for such work. The blouses
are being made for - and IS cents each.
Think of the condition Of people who make
a whole uniform for % cents,
This scandal is simply upon a par with
the embalmed beef exposure The health
authorities have repeatedly declared that
the germs of disease lurk in clothing made
in the sweatshops, and these uniforms are
made in places worse than any sweatshop
that | ever saw. | should think that the
soldiers suffer enough as it is, particularly
those in the tropics. without subjectine
them to the danger Of wearing clothing
infected in the sweatshops.
Lewis Lewison, Henry White and other
officers of the Garment Workers Associa-
tion talked along the same lines. Mr.. Lew
ison said that he believed that it was with
in the power of the State factory inspec-
tors to stop the manufacture of the uni
forms in the places complained of
