this year has been unsatisfactory

have all been very late IN reaching boom,
some Of them not yet having arrived; the
operations Of pulp companies have inter

the largest mills have been burned. and,
IN addition TO all Of this, the market has
been slow al only fair prices. with the
practical certainty Of q bad break under
fun supplies. Thus far the season may be
set down as a failure for the spruce mills,
as well as for the shipping interests de-
pendent upon the lumber trade and al
though a brisk movement is usually look
cd for in the fan. the prospect this year
for any great Improvement is regarded as
uncertain.
Most Of the spruce mills. including all
save one Of the larger plants on the Pen
Obscot. have been shut down for periods
varying from four 20 eight weeks. and the
coasting vessels that come 20 Bangor for
lumber freights have lost a great deal Of

American Administration in Phil

WATCHED WITH CRITICAL EYE
The German Press has Observed

Inclined to Be Critical

WASHINGTON, Mob. ,i.--rhs German
WV Of American administration in tle

recently issued by the German Central
Bureau FOR the preparation Of CONNER
cial treaties, a copy Of which mas been
forwarded TO the state departmen. BY

Mr. Hinquer says that the German
press has watched our movements in
our new possessions with an eye in
clined to be critical but no voice mas
been raised as 10 the beneficial change
effected In the condition Of the Phil
ippines by American rule. The cir
eular says:
Although the pAc.fcatlon of the
Philippine archipelago has not yet been
fully established the accounts Of It's
economls Development are 80 favorable
that 1t cannot BE- too strongly urged
upon German exporters 20 give partic-

The testimony cannot be Withheld that
the American administration Of affairs
in the Philippines has, as far as eco
nomic be;term mt Of the country IS
concerned, already achieved extra1rd.-
nary SUCCESS,
In 1894, which was the last year OF
peaoeful conditions while under Span
ish rule. the Philippine imports reach
ed s2S,5OO,OCO. The exports were ssS,-
100000 Mexican in value. Under Amer
lean rule the imports increased in 1899
to Si0.s00cOO and In 1900 to S55.5OO,O 900
Mexican, and the exports to $SS5Oo,OOe
and $53 100000 respectively. Military
supplies are not included in these ig-
ures.
For German interests Il Is essential
to know whether exports from the
United States will receive preferential
treatment and It is noteworthy that the
tariff schedule proposed by the United
States conmissioner in Manila retains
the present feature Of equal rates or

OF his official family had carefully look

He admitted that certain legal aspects
Of the Northern Securities Company
