A series of tables has been prepared
by the Treasury Bureau of statistics,
showing the expectation of manufac-
lures in each year from 1890 to 1902,
and the distribution of each article to
every country and grand division OF
the world during the period from 1891
to 1901, and this analysis shows that
fifty-two per cent of the manufactures
go to Europe and twenty-four per cent
to North American countries other than
the United states.

ed in 1890. to sl,23T, 1893 and formed 81
per cent of the total domestic exports;

aged sl.972,5S3 per annum and formed
