RECORD BROKEN
Export Trade With Canada Shows
Remarkable Increase.

Washington. July S.-The United
States of America is doing such a large
business with the Dominion OF Canada
that reciprocity agitation seems almost
futile.
The American exports to Canada TOR
the wear lust ended show a larger eN-
port to Canada han in any otheI year
of our history.
The total exports to British North
America from the United States for the
full fiscal year seem likely to be about
sl25, 900, 900, against s112, 000, 900 in 1907,
t107. 200, 600 in 1901, and S97,00o,Ooo IN
1900.
Not only has the growth in exports
from the United States to Canada been
! greater in the year just ended than IN
any preceding veal with a single x
ception, but that growth has peen
| greater than to any other country ex-
cept Germany. To the IN
crease in the eleven months or l9oS 1or
| which figures are now available was
$4,000, 900; to Mexico, the Increase was
81, 600, 900; to Argentina, s1,500,0O0; to
| all of South America, 81, SOC, 900; n to
| all of Africa, $4,000. GOO. Thus the ac-
| tual increase in our expectations 10
| Canada II the fiscal year just ended
| will be greater than to any otneF
country except Germany.
Imports Grow More Slowly.
| Meantime the IlpOItS llllO LhC oLi~
ed States from Canada have grown,
but not with equal rapidity. The total
imports for the year just nded will
amcunt to about $685. 00, 900, against a
total of s4s, OOO, 900 imported from Brit
ish North America in the fiscal year
| 1902. Comparing 1903 with 1898, the
growth will noun to about Sli,0Oo,-
| 600, the total imports from British
North America for 1893 having been
about s3S, O0O, 900; while the growth in
our exports to British North America
| during that same period Will be about
| ST, 600, 900. Thus the total exports to
| British North America from the United
States are a little more than double
| the imports into the United States
from that section, and the growth in
exports between 1898 and 1903 has been
twice as great as the growth In i'm
ports. -,
The most important articles which
form that expectation OF $l2o,ooo,ooo
| to British North America are, stating
| them in the relative order OF value:
Manufactures Of iron and steel, coal,
breadstuffs, raw cotton, manufactures
Of cotton, agricultural implements.

NEGOTIATIONS ARE STILL ON
(Continued from First Page.)


 President Mahon, of the Amalgamated Street Railroad Employees association, and several others. Resolutions were adopted asking Mayor Carter H. Har- rison to withdraw the police from the cars of the Chicago City railroad, and declaring for immediate municipal owri- ership of all the street car lines in the city. .4.
 The teamsters have become more deeply involved than ever in the strike of the street car men. At meeting to- night of representatives of all the locals of the union in Chicago the stand taken last week, when the drivers employed by the Chicago City railway were or dered on strike in sympathy with the trainmen, and all teamsters belonging to the union were notified to cease de- liveries to the plants fthe traction company, was approved. When the or der was first issued it was declared by the associated teanling interests of the city to be in direct violation of con- tracts, and an ultimatum was present. ed yesterday to Cornelius Shea, presi- dent of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, demanding that the or der be rescinded or the employers would abrogate every contract existing be- tween them and the Teamsters' union. To-night's rneeth1gFwas to consider this ultimatum, and the result was refusal to comply withathe demand. President Shea advised the teamsters against an- tagonizing the employers, but his words went unheeded and the decision to ig- nore the ultimatum of the employers was almost unanimous. A....uz
 It was also decided to call a strike of the teamsters employed by the R. H. Jones Transfer company, who have been making delivsries to the Chicago City Railway. This action together with the stand taken on the ultimatum of the employed, 1t is believed, may result in general lockout or strike of the S0OOO union teamsters employed throughout the city.
 The employers will hold a meeting to- morrow to decide on what action will be taken. While none of them would discuss the matter tonight, still tha impression was given out that the 5teamsters would be summarily dealt with.
