NEW SOUTH WALES FRIENDLY.
American Manufactures Grow
POpulRrity There,

Popularity There.
Goods OF American manufacture are
growing In favor in New South Wales.
United States Consul F. W. Godding. at
New Castle. writes the State Department
on the subject as follows:
Il am making every effort to introduce
American manufactured goods into this
consular district A few years ago. no
American manufactures could be seen in
this city. hut now they are displayed in the
various shop windows and are well liked.
Some time ago l arranged to have a speci-
men. shotgun sent here, having given the
best bank references. A sale OF perhaps
thirty of the highest-priced guns might
have been made if the specimen had been
sent and had proven to be as represented,
but it neevr came.
AT another time l sent an order for
about 81 200 worth Of rubber goods to an
American firm, but my letter remains un-
answered. An order for 500, 900 envelopes
remains open, because the manufacture
ers have failed to reply to letters addressed
to them. 1t is decidedly disheartening for
consuls who are trying their best to bring
American goods to the attention OF local
business men to find their efforts fail be-
cause of the lack of interest at home. 1t is
all the more discouraging when the main
portion of letters received by consuls are
enquiries made by these firms, who later
fail to second our efforts. Even as it is.
the increase in the amount Of United
States goods sold here is something enor-
nous, but it might be much more. II there
is any way of letting our exporters know
that consular officers would like to have
their suggestions followed up the consular
service would be still more valuable to the
business interests of the United States than
it now is.''

The Secretary Of the Interior has COM
municated to Congress his views Of the
mixed-up condition affecting the lands in
Minnesota that have been ceded to the
Chippewa Indians, and the difficulties that
have been experienced relative to the TIM
ber question. He says:
1.-The act Of January ii. 1882 made pro-
visions for obtaining the cessiOn Of the
greater part of the reservation occupied
Minnesota, for the examination Of ceded
lands. for the purpose OF classifying them
as either pine or agricultural lands, and
for the disposition of these two classes of
lands etc.
The reservations coming within the pro-
visions OF the act were twelve in number.
The aggregate area of the land therein
subject to disposal was 1884, 297.9s acres.

179.49 acres. valued at 1914. 4.044.22. had been
sold. leaving $2,577, ,11S.49 to be disposed
OF in the manner prescribed by law.
The moneys received from time to time
from the sales of such lands have been de-
posted in the Treasury to the credit Of
the chippewa luuldnS, anu tHe money re-
ceived from future disposals OF the balance
of said lands will in like manner be depos-
tied to the credit Of the Indians. out of
which when the funds in the Treasury
from that source reach the sum OF So
100000. the United States is. under the act
OF January IA, 1889. to be reimbursed for
all moneys advanced to the Indians.
The examination of the lands required
by the act, which was commenced in April
of 1898 in the Leech Lake. Cass Lake.
Winnibigoshish. Mississippi Chippewa, and
White Oak Point reservations, was con-
tinued. and in February Of 1899 the re-
examination of four townships in the
White Earth Reservation was authorized
and as a result Of this work a sale of lands
in May of 1899 was under consideration.
Complaints, however, having been made
from time to time regarding the cutting Of
green timber in the logging operations on
the Chippewa Indian lands. and as many
protests against tha further sales of the

Rear Admiral ]. C. Watson, commanding
the Asiatic naval station, has notified the
Navy Department that he has transferred
his flag from the cruiser Baltimore to the

the Baltimore and is larger vessel. The
Brooklyn reached Manila few days ago.
Admiral Watson transferred his staff Of
fccrs and some others from the Baltimore
to the Brooklyn, and an equal number of
officers from the Brooklyn to the Balti-
more. These changes have been approved
by the Navy Department.
