AMERICAS SUPREMACY.

At that time. in pointing out the
supremacy which Tire iron interests of
America were destined tn hold in the
worlds trade, a statement was quoted from
a leading English iron expert ITO the effect
that these conditions would cause the
great iron and steel interests Of England
TO become largely interested in kindred en-
1erprses in America. The English iron
manufacturers and ship-hUilders, who have
dominated the worlds trade. seeing that
they could no longer compete on equal
terms with America, rather than give up
rhe fight. would place themselves on equal
grounds by the purchase and development
of similar enterprises at the most favored
points in llte United States.

English people Of the Cramp shinyard and

advantages OF The United States. Other
