 Tn our iron and steel trade with for eiGn, countries covering the last twenty years our position has heeu exactly reversed. Within the last five years We have actually chang, d from an i'm porting to an exporting nation. In 1880 We imported five times as mucn in value a we exported If iron aud steel products. Now we export six times the value of our iron and steel imports. These exports in 1900 aggregated $121.- S5S.341, thus ranking next tG bread stuffs. cotton and provisions. the three higher in value. There are in the iron and steel exports twenty-one classes, valued at from $l.OOO.0OO to 5000, 900 each.
 Our pig iron trade with Europe is limited by the quantity of bottoms of fered it as ballast in cotton cargoa. Everywhere, too. our foreign trade suf- fers for want of trained commercial repreS, ntatives. Our greatest commer- cial needs, as has been well said, are ships and schools.

OPERATORS ARE FIRM
They Are In Conference, but There Is No Indication of Their Chang ing Front-Credit at the Stores Is Running Low; Many Are Suffering-Many Merchants Fac ing Ruin.

New York, Oct. 15.-A special 70 tue Herald from Hazleton. Pa, says:
 Want and ruin have followed in the wake of the strike Tn the anthracite region. Families who lived in comfort while the mines were in operation now feel the pinch of privatiOn and the bare necessaries of existence seem like lux uries. Businessmen upon whom pros perity had smiled have been brought to rhe verge of bankruptcy. thriving towns have become Stagnant, travellers have forsakcn them and newspaper correspondents and labor leaders con- stitute the most important element in the floating population. The strikc rs who have some li'tle money on hand for an emergency have cut living eX penses down to minimum. buying nothing but food. and little of that. In many instances they are able to obtain some credit from local dealers, but he bills cannot run very high.
 AS there was little coal to be hauled the coal railroad had to lay off the crews of most of their coal trains. There are actually in the enormous yards at Mauch Chunk several hun dred coal cars which, under normal conditions, would be scattered on the railroads from the Atlantic to the Pa Cif1c. In many towns it is now impCs- sible to obtain coal for domestic use at any price. The stagna tion of trade here Is. of course. felt by the manufac- turers and Whr- lesalers of eastern cities who furnish supplies and as the mer- chants can Oti ain no cash from their customers they must appeal to their creditors for leniency. Appeals are be- ing sent to the United Mine Workers organization for funds for the relief If the destitute strikers, who can get 20 credit.
