Although the number OF trade
aud manufacturing combinations
i, steadily Increasing in the United
States, it is a notable truism that
the failure of Americans to gain
larger share of the business in
foreign markets is due to their
lack of organization and system
attic effort.

writing to the State Department
from Haukau draws attention to
this short coming apparent in the
Chinese markets. Notwithstand.

crease in the exports to the
Orient, Wilcox is authority for the
stat ameut that the number of Am.
e,icans doing business in China
is less today than thirty years ago.
There are men enough but they
are not adapting their methods TO
the changed conditions of Chinese
trade. "The American business
representatives visit the ministers
and consuls and request them to
get dates for interviews with the
Tsupgli Yamen at Pekin, the
viceroys, and other high officials
in the various provinces of the
Empire. Their plans are similar,
they are all from the United
States, and they request the
Tsupgli Ysmen to instruct the
viceroys to gather specimens, to
be sent to the association they
represent. Of course, each com.
mission informs the officials that
his league is composed of the
most prominent and wealthy COM
mercisl men OF his country. The
consequence is that the Chinese
officials, by having so many asso.
Citations brought to their notice,
are confused"
European merchants, while pay
ing due attention TO Chinese of
fcials, deal with the Chinese mer-
chants direct, combine their forces,
establish expositions in the
larger mercantile centers and
get the major portion of the
business.
Ii the reports of American Con-
suls amount to anything-and
they are Of vast importance not
outstanding the attempts to de-
sparage the capacity of these
men, there is greater demand
for organization among American
merchants in foreign markets than
at home. They are now compel.

To bring American foreign trade
to the standard which the nation 3
resources might we'll command, it
is necessary that Yankee mer-
chants cease pickering among
themselves and meet European
merchants as a common CONNER

day, picture Of Walters as q cigar
maker who worked for him in May,

zine used by the Bradford nitro
glycerine factory to store the product
of their factory, located two and q
half miles east of Gibsonburg, exc

knocked fiat, pictures were torn from
the walls, dishes thrown out of cup

quarts of glycerine in the wagon and
in the magazine.
