The Bureau Of Statistics of the Treas
ury Department at Washington has
just given out resume of the export
and figures of the trade between this
country and our newly acquired terri
tories or temporary dependencies that
is both interesting and encouraging to
the friends of American commerce.
Even in The reciprocity years of 1892
to 1894 in which the exports from this
country in those directions were great
ly increased, the totals were not as
large as those of the recently ended
fiscal year, with all its disadvantages
of active warfare. To Puerto Rico
our exports are nearly 25 per cent.
in excess of the average of the past
decade; to Cuba they are nearly so
per cent. greater; to the Hawaiian
Islands over twice as great; and to the
Philippines more than three times as
much. The exports to these islands
made necessary by the support Of our
military establishments and by the
considerable shipments in aid of the
temporarily destitute are not included
in these figures; they are only those
of the legitimate increase of COM
merce. Naturally, as a result of war,
and especially so in Cuba and the
Philippines, the imports from these
lands to us fell off very considerably
during 1898; but the healthy resump-
ton of trade relations is shown by a
small increase as compared with last
year in Hawaii; nearly 90 per cent. in
the Philippines; almost so per cent.
in Puerto Rico; and over sc per cent.
in Cuba. These are most gratifying
trade reports.
