The Philippines commerce is at pres
ent much more largely with countries
other than the United States than is
the case with any other of the non
contiguous territories of the United
States. This is due in part to the Gus
tom which has long prevailed in those
islands of purchasing from Spain and
other European countries, and from
Hong Kong and China, whose proximi-
ty gives to their trade a marked ad-
vantage over that of distant countries
while the presence of a considera Bile
Chinese population accounts in part
for the large imports from China. An
other cause of the more rapid growth
in the trade relations of the United
States with the other noncontiguOus
territories than in that with the Phil
ippines is doubtless found in the fact
that in all other cases no customs du-
ties are collected on merchandise COM
ing into the United States from those
territories or into those territories from
the United States, while in the case of
the Philippines a reduction of only 25
per cent has been made in the rates of
duty on merchandise from those is
lands entering the United States, and
no reduction on merchandise from the
the treaty with Spain provides that
merchandise from that country shall be
admitted to the Philippines on the
same terms as that from the United
States during a period of ten years
from the exchange of ratifications of
that treaty, a term which does not ex-
pire until April. 1909. The figures for
the nine months ending with March,
1908, show exports from the Philippines
to countries other than the United
States amounted to $13, 497, 039, as com
pared with imports into the islands
from the United States valued at So
235.372 during the same period. OF the
merchandise valued at $13 497, O39 sent
