American Trade Rivalry.

Washington, ID. c., Feb. 1.--Consul
Halstead of Birmingham, England, re-
ports to the state department that
there is a great awakening going on
among English manufacturers over the
disastrous possibilities of American
trade competition.
A new trade paper there has met
with a most cordial reception, he says,
and the news columns of both daily
and trade papers are filled with facts
about American trade, while the mat
ter is given serious editorial discussion
which in English daily papers means
much more serious consideration than
the same editorials pay devoted to a
like subject in the average American
newspaper
In this weeks issue of the particu-
lar trade paper referred to Mr.. Hal
stead says that fully twelve nine hun
dred-word columns are devoted 70
American trade matters, about one
half taken from the American consular
reports.

construction of the foundations of the
ways on which the huge fighting ma
chine will rest The timbers have
been lying in the Boston navy yard
for over half century. They were
originally cut in the live oak forests
of Delaware and shipped to Boston
many years ago, to be used in the
construction of wooden ships. Their
use will preclude any possibility of
breakage which might result from the
use of ordinary timber. The wood is
SO hard that it turns the edges of steel
bits used in planning it. The new
Maine will have larger number OF
men employed upon her than the
Cramps have ever before placed upon
a single vessel. The work of laying
the ways will consume many days.
