Their Commercial Relations
With the United States.
This Country a Natural Market for
the Group.
Tabulated Statistics of Exports and
ImpOrts-PopulatfOn and Chnrac-
ter of Their Products.

The fact that a reciprocity treaty, in
tended to bring portion OF the British
West Indies into closer commercial rela-
tions with the United States, has just been
signed, and that others of that group
of islands are suggesting similar arrange
ments, lends interest to series OF tables
which the Treasury Bureau Of Statistics
will present in the forthcoming number Of
the Summary of Commerce and Finance.
islands which stretch from the southern
coast of Florida to the eastern coast Of
Venezuela, numbering hundreds, having an
area of nearly 100, 900 square miles, and q
popula Son of 100000 have an annual
commerce of $3.50, ,O00, GOO. While the events
OF the past year have brought the most
important of these-Cuba and Porto Rico
into closer relations with the United
States, these events were quickly followed
by suggestions for a closer relation on the
part OF others of the group, which natur
ally look to the United States as the near
est market in which 10 dispose of their
products, and from which to obtain their
supplies.
In this great chain of islands connect
ing continent with continent, Great Brit
ain controls by far the largest number.
The Bahamas, which stretch southeasterly
from Florida almost to Porto Rico, with
twenty inhabited and scores of uninhab-
tied islands, have been under British con-
troll since Ills, and at the close of the
Revolutionary war became the home of
many families of English loyalists from
the south Of the United States.
The Virgin group. just east of Porto
Rico, is partly under control Of Great Brit
ain. The long lines of islands stretching
southwardly from Porto Rico to the north
east coast of South America, touching Brit
ish Guiana on the mainland, are mostly
und(r the control of the United Kingdom,
whiNe Jamaica and the Cayman Islands.

duras, on the adjacent mainland of Central
America, are likewise a part Of Greater
Britain" Thus the large proportion of the
semi-circle Of islands swinging from the
coast Of Central America past the south
ern point Of Florida to the northeastern
point Of South America, omitting Cuba
and Porto Rico, are under British con-
troll
The British colonies thus lying CONNER

Of Central and South America, have an

All the crack amateurs have sent in their
entries. and the meet tomorrow promises
to furnish scma OF the fastest racing seen
this season. The local sprinters are all in
excellent conci,Son. and the result Of their
training for the past two months, 1t is
said. will be a surprise to local followers
Of the sport. Nearly all amateur riders
have raced every week in Baltimore since
the Decoration Day meet in this city, and
have gained much valuable track expe-
rience Notwithstanding the unfairness Of
the handicaps given Washington boys OF
the Baltimore tracks, however, they have
made the Baltimorians ride hard to win
and in many cases have beaten them.
The prizes at tomorrow's meet will be
Emerson shoes for all events except in the
novice race. A SIS gold medal will be
given to the winning novice. Four races
have been scheduled to take place, and,
owing to the large number of entries, each
event will of necessity be run in several
heats. The one mile novice race is sched-
uled to take place first, after which will
follow one-mile amateur open, one-mile
handicap, and tandem pursuit race. For
the pursuit race three teams have been
entered, and they are said to be very even
ly matched. This event gives promise of
being spirited from start to finish, and the
possibilities are that ten miles will have
to be covered by the winning team. The
tandem riders are F. B. Miller and o. H.
Miller, H. A Rhine and C. L. Miller. and
W. H. Harrington and W. G. Crowley.
The entries are:
