that the changes in the diplomatic SER

soon by at least two others. Henry

CLAIMING A VICTORY.
London Newspaper Comment on the
End Of the Tobacco War.

End OF the Tobacco War.
London. Oct 1.-The newspapers
consider the settlement Of the tobacco
war victory for English business
methods against the American trust.
The Standard says that the American
Tobacco company has been worsted at
the tactical game 1t commenced itself.
Its aim was the destruction Of the to-
bacco manufacturing industry of Eng
land. Doubtless now 1t has acted wise
ly in abandoning the assault. Some
other American trusts which may con-
template. extending their operations
into England are not likely to have
any better fortune than the tobacco
company. Now that the British COM
bination Is relieved Of the cost Of war,
1T may be hoped that 1t will devote Its
attention to Improving the quality Of
the tobacco sold, which has rapidly de.
Perforated in recent years.

and discussed at some length the mill

feature of the second day of the en-

Harries believes that he will have al
least 12.c00 men in line, although his
fisui<s regarding the strength of the
veteran bodies which are to parade is
meager.
Seven Thousand Soldiers.
General Harries stated that there
would be 1000 uniformed and equipped
soldiers in line, the effect of which he
believed would prove one of the greatest
inspirations of the encampment.
Regarding the parade, General Har-
ries said:
About fourteen companies of coast
artillery. marching as infantry, will be
sent here from Fort Monroe. Fort Wash
ington, and Fort Hunt. and it is possi-
BILE further detachment may be order
ed to attend from Fort McHenry, in
which event we shall have a large regi
ment of about eighteen companies.
The battalion of engineers now at
the Washington Barracks will attend
with its band A corps command of
about 100 Hospital Service men will
march. The squadron of cavalrymen
from Fort Myer with its band. and the
company of light artillery with its band.
will both be ordered out. and we shall
have at least one battalion of Marines
with the Marine Band.
1T is very possible that the famous
Ninth Infantry will be sent down here
from Fort Madison, N. Y. This is the
regiment, you know. which served with
distinction in Cuba, China. and the Phil
ippines, and If it comes, it will march

less than 500 jackies, with the bands

SPAlN'S HOLD ON CUBAN
Shoe TRADE Is WANING
United States Dealers Arc
Making Rapid Gains.
Peculiar Last of the Cuban Shoe Gave
Spanish Manufacturers an
Advantage.

Statistics of the boot and shoe trade
of Cuba while under United States con-
troll, are shown by the last commercial
summary of the island for May, 1902
just published by the Bureau of Insula.
Affairs of the War Department. Fo,
the period mentioned purchases, includ;
ing sandals. were made to the amount
of 9,545.99S pairs. valued at $6,812,017,
the importations coming chiefly from
Spain and this country. in the ratio of
73 per cent for the former, against 26
per cent for the later, though a com
parison by years discloses the fact that
American manufacturers of boots and
shoes have largely increased their trade
with Cuba.
During each of the three calendar
years. 1899. 1900. and 1901, the total i'm
portation of boots and shoes into the
island was s6s0,621. $685.. .643. and 3467,77s.
respectively. considerably in excess of
the shipments from our customs houses
destined for all Europe excepting the
United Kingdom). The expectations
from the United States for this trade
was s212. 1886. s2s5,172, and s4oO,4s during
the periods mentioned.
Last Comparative Statement.
The latest comparative data bearing
on the development of a Cuban market
for this class of goods is shown under
the eleven months ended May 81, 1901,
as compared with that part of the As
cal year ending May 10, 1902, the close
of American occupation, no allowance
being made in these figures for the un-
expired portion of the month. During
the former period the importations
amounted to 1,S99,O41 pairs, valued at
81. 429, ,109. of which Spain sold "A per
cent, or $1.061,739 worth at an average
price OF s. cents per pair, this coun-
try furnished one-fourth Of the entire
supply, or $36l, 1857 worth, the average
price per pair being 81.
In the eleven months ending May 10,
1902. the United States trade shows q
material increase; of the, total imports
for this period amounting to 1,925, ,37a
pairs, valued at $1,557.77O. we supplied
nearly one third. or $4S6,5S5 worth, av-
era8lnS 70 cents per pair, while the
imports coming from Spain show ap-
proximately 6S per cent. or $1,067. 1872
worth, very slight increase over the
previous period. although the article
furnished seems to be of somewhat
better grade. averaging 70 cents per
pair.
Require Peculiar Last.
This result must be somewhat gratify-
ing to the shoe dealers of this country,
as it has been accomplished notwith-
standing the fact that the peculiar last
adapted to the Cuban footform required
persistent efforts on the part OF our
merchants to compete favorably with |
the long established trade of Spain.
However, the latter country seems to
have rather firm hold on trade In the
cheaper grade of shoes sold, which may |
result in the establishment of factories |
in this country that will be able to turn |
out lower priced article of quality |
and style suitable to the poorer classes i
of Cuba. in which event 1t is simply u |
question of a short time when the Unit
ed States will control this trade abso-
lutely.'
