Georgetown, Ky, Oct. 17.-At the

not answer. The defense asked that

GROWTH OF COMMERCE.
Increased Volume of Trade with
Tropical Countries Under
Mckinley.

Two especial features of the. growth
of our foreign commerce under Presi-
dent Mckinley have been the increase
in the importa ton of tropical and sub
tropical products and the increase in
the expectations to those countries
which furnished those tropical and
sub-tropical products. The people of
the United States are spending a mil
hon dollars a day for classes of mer-
chandise which they cannot produce,
or at east are not at present produc-
ing in the United States. These in
clude coffee, raw silk, India rubber,
fibres, fruits and nuts, tobacco of
high grades, tea, gums, cocoa and
chocolate, spices, rice, cabinet woods,
dye woods, indigo and certain chem
icals. all of them of tropical or sub
tropical production. This class of ar
ticles form a constantly-increasi
proportion of our imports, both be-
cause of the increased demand through
our manufacturers and through an en-
larged consumption by the people and
also because of the reduced importa-
ton of manufactured goods. In 1895
the importations of this class of ar
ticles amounted to $315, 707 sos, and in
the fiscal year 1900 amounted to $751;
353,246. A large proportion of these
articles reach us from Asia and Ocean
la. The proportion of our sugar inn
ports which is furnished by the Ha-
waiian Islands and the Dutch East In
dies is constantly increasing, while the
bulk of the raw silk, tea, Manila hemp,
jute, gums, spices, indigo and dye
woods come from the countries of
Asia and Oceania, and the remaining
articles of the list are furnished by
tropical and sub-tropical countries.
