Apparent Decrease in Manufactures,
The apparent decrease in manufac-
lures, which amounts to 500, 342 ,5S3, is

Rico. which are estimated at about
$25,O00,000 for the year, and largely
consisted of manufactures. In two
important articles Of manufacture.

Exports to Asia and Oceania
The exports to each of the CONT.
nents, except Asia and Oceania, show
a marked increase over last year. To
Oceania an apparent decrease of 49,
O14,O99 is entirely due to the absence
or the Hawaiian figures from the ex-
port statement of 1901. To Asia a
reduction of SIS ,510,993 is due in part
to the temporary suspension of exports
to China during the recent period of
hostilities, and in part to the reduction
In exports of cotton to Japan, as COM
pared with abnormal exports in 1900.
The principal changes in the exports
by countries are: A decrease of S1O.-
100000 to Japan and $5.O0O.OOO to
