Lehigh Valley Changes.

Changes in the Office system OF tho
Lehigh Valley railroad which, in way
are an innovation. are being made. 1t
is quite likely that the result of the
Lehighs experiments will be watched
with considerable interest by other
roads. and II found practicable prOba-
bly, will be adopted by them.
one experiment now under way is
the plan Of making out way bills on a
typewriter instead of with a pen. the
method usually employed. 1t has been
demonstrated already that the large
number of copies desired of each way
bill may be much more perfectly OBJ
tanned from the printed typewriter
sheet than from the pen traced page
The new plan has been adopted in the
large offices of the company. like that
of Buffalo, where the business is enor-
nous.
Another new departure on the part
of the Lehigh Is the consolidation ol
the department OF telegraph with tn.
maintenance of way department. There
will still be a superintendent of tele.
graph, but he will report hereafter tC
the engineer of maintenance of way
instead of the general superintendent
Reasons given for the change are tha
the construction of telegraph lines anc
their maintenance. which is part o
the telegraph department work, prop
erly belongs to the maintenance of wa,
department, the same as any otheI
structural work.

lands from the United states during
the year at fully s2o000.ooo. This
makes s27,OOo,000. therefore, which
should be added to the export state
ment in an attempt to compare the
figures of the present year with those
Of 1900.
An analysis of the exports from the
United States to Porto Rico and the
Hawaiian Islands last year shows that
fully two-thirds were manufactures,
and assuming this as a basis of the
calculations for the present year, there
should be added $4,000, 900 to the state
ment OF manufactures exported from
the United States. bringing the total
up TO si2S, S,0OO.0 900, or only five millions
below that of last year. The exports
to China from the United States fell
off about s5.000,000 in 1901, compared
with 1900 the fall. of course. being en-
tirely due to temporary causes. An
examination of our exports to China in
1900 shows that practically all are
manufactures, so that the temporary
reduction of exports to China, due t.
the unsettled conditions in that coun-
try. coupled with the absence of ex-
port statistics for Hawaii and Porto
Rico. fully equals the entire decrease
in our exports Of manufactures.

An Apparent Decrease.

Exports of manufactures from the
United states show an apparent de-
crease of s23.342, $50 in the fiscal year
1901, compared With 1900. The detailed
figures having just been completed by
the treasury bureau of statistics. it is
now practicable to analyZe this de-
crease and see how much Of it is real
and how much of that which is real is
due to temporary causes.
AS has already been explained by the
bureau of statistics the export figures
of 1901, do not include the exports to
the Hawaiian Islands or to Porto Rico,
which are now customs districts of the
United States. The shipments of do
mestic products to Porto Rico We're
during the year S6S6l .911, and includ
ing the foreign with the domestic pro-
ducts, exceeded 100000 For the
shipments from the United States "a
the Hawaiian Islands there are no Off
cal statistics, the exporters having
taken advantage of the letter of the
law and refused to give this informa
tiOn to the bureau of statistics; but
the collector of cSutoms at Honolulu
estimates the shipments to those is
