The British consul at Kein in his re-
port. says: While Germany is talked
about as our greatest rival in the mar
kets of the world, there does not seem
to be the same attention paid TO the
rapidly developing competition OF Am
erica. The strides America is making
are startlingly apparent in the foreign
trade. The agricultural machinery
trade is practically controlled by Am
erica, the trade In duplex and other
steam pumps Is more or less American
the Introduction Of improved machine
tools Is due 10 America, which Is now
reaping the benefit OF practical ideas
combined with utility, and now the sup
ply Of fixed steam engines to the for
elgn mark Is being energeucany
pushed"
The British consul az Odessa writes:
cycles Of English make are held In
high esteem. but they are distanced
by American machines. Our cousins
acr0s the Atlantic can supply good
cycles 80 per cant. cheaper than those
Of English make, and can therefore,
easily undersell the latter The reason
Of this difference in price is 10 be found
In the fact that the American bicycles
have many OF those parts cast which
in English machines are turned The
German cycles have a good reputation
for durability, and consequently,
though Mttle cheaper than English ma
chimes. have a fair sale"
Speaking Of the popularity Of Ameri-
can agricultural machinery IN Russia.
the British consult general at odessa,
says: "1n reapers and binders. Amer
lea still enjoys the monopoly OF the
market. Hand reapers still command
a ready sale. though they are gradu-
ally being superseded by self-reapers

Inc words evidently aroused unplcas-
ant thoughts, yet her manner through
out had been such that Mr.. Mitchell was
assured in his own mind that at least
she had no guilty knowledge OF the
abandonment of the infant. And, this
being true It greatly complicated the
case, for il She were innocent in that
respect how could she have consented
so readily to the disappearance CT hcr
child: This almost led him to believe
that she had spoken the truth ANA that
after all, he might have been mistaken
in connecting her With the case. Rui
Just then she noticed that lie held 4
