a'The street car strike in New York

from the thought that their own under

similar labor struggles. In Glasgow
the municipality began to operate
tramways five years ago, because driv-
ers and conductors we're badly treated
by private companies. The experiment
has succeeded in every respect, but the
most noticeable feature is the content
ment and orderly conduct Of the men
employed in the service. Their wages
have been increased and their hours
shortened, andno complaints are heard
OF bad treatment. The tramWays com
mittee Of the council is now consider
ing a schedule for increasing the wages
Of nearly every one on the force By
about a shilling a week. This action is
taken without pressure from the men.

Expectations Of Wheat Flour.

The millers of the United States have
made their greatest record in the IS
cal year 1899. While it is true that
wheat, corn, oats, cornmeal, rye, and, in
fact, all other lines Of breadstuffs show
q reduction Of expectation on account
Of the decreased demand abroad, -four
alone shows an increase which is a
phenomenal one. For the fiscal year
the total expectation of -four is over
100000 barrels, representing over
100000 bushels Of wheat The ex-
pOrtatiOn of -four from the United
States has made its chief development
since 1875. Prior to that date Ameri-
can millers followed the OLD processes
in the manufacture Of -four, where
European millers we're experimenting
with, and bringing to success, the mod
ern roller-miu methods. As a result,
the foreign -four trade Of the United
States met with serious reverses dur
ing the period from 1850 TO 1875, the
European consumers preferring to buy
their wheat and make it into -four with
ing to a prominent American miller.
We sent 1,846,OOO barrels Of -four TO
Great Britain alone, while IN 1865 only
100000 barrels we're sent to all Europe.
During the period 1925 TO 1880, over 90
per cent Of the value Of wheat and
-four exports vas -four; in the five
years 1870 to 1875, only about q per
cent Of wheat and -four exports was in
the form Of -four. In 1875 the expor-
tatiOn Of wheat -four was 3973,I28 bar
rels- In 1880 It was almost double. In
1885 it was nearly 100000, and in
1895 it had risen to 1925, s92, while in
1899 the figures we're Is,3OO,OOO barrels.
This is a most gratifying increase and
is in the line Of our success in the ex-
pOrtstiOn Of manufactured articles. 1t
is especially pleasing to note the guam
tity Of -four sent to the Orient; in 1889,
378,634 barrels we're sent to Hong Kong, /
and in 1899 over 100000 barrels were
sent. Germany is also becoming g good
customer for -four, and We are now
sending her 10000 barrels against b.
600 barrels ten years ago. The Neither !
lands are also taking 100000 barrels. /
an increase Of 10000 barrels in ten 1
years. To the United Kingdom our ex-
ports Of -four in 1889 we're 5,27I, "a
barrels, and in 1899 they viii exceed
100000 barrels. That -four exports
should have continued to increase in
the face Of the reduction Of cur expor-
tation in other lines Of breadstuffs is
gratifying to those interested
u seeing American labor participate
