New York business men were much

u placing Hawaiian trade upon de-

the islands are now q part OF the Unit

ceive export rates on goods shipped
there from other portions OF the Union.
Ii appears that there is no branch OF

The tendency OF the trade 10 seek its

the same course as business in other
parts Of the United States Is very
strong; but il is opposed by disin-
clination TO change business methods.
and break away from the old idea that
all business which must cross salt wa
ter is foreign business.
There are very few up-to-6ate bust
ness men who do not readily admit
thar the time must come when all Ha-
Walian business will be considered as
domestic. but there are many who.

with thought that export prices viii

of the United States in favor OF Hawaii.
