HOW WE MAY GET TRADE
OF CHILEAN MERCHANTS.
If it Is Wanted by Our Manufacturers
They Must Work for Certain
Conditions.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 23-Consul A. A.
Winslow. of Valparaiso, reports that there
is a much larger proportion of the business
OF Chile ready for the American exporter
If the field IL properly worked, which is
really not a very difficult proposition If
the conditions are thoroughly understood,
some Of which he mentions:
In the first place, he should be put in
closer touch with this part Of the world.
When this is done and this part of the
world has a tw~enty-day mail and pas
senger service with New York. instead of
a thirty-hve to forty-two-day service as
now. the American manufacturer can enter
competition much more successfully for
the heavy business of this country. To
make this point clear, attention is called
to three more or less important deals that
have recently come up that were out of
the reach OF our people simply for want
OF sufficient time. and this Is the rule, as
three months is the usual time given in
advertisements.
The first Of these deals is the matter Of
two steam cranes the government is hav-
ing put In at this port. that went TO an
English firm at about 100000, because they
had an agent on the ground. The next Is
for 100 steel freight cars for the govern
ment railways. for which the advertise
ment has just been published, while all
bids must be in on september -. .1g1,
which is too short a time for American
bidders. Another is for water works plants
Mt the following cities: Yallena, Illapel,
Quilpue. Casablanca. Chamo. Gillian and
Talcahuano. for which bids were asked to
be opened September 4, 1907.
There are two or three ways to get in
touch with this business. and the best is
quicker mail and passenger service. An
other is to have an agent in the country,
who is in a position to quote prices or
who can forward plans and furnish infor-
nation and keep in touch with matters
here.

AUSTRALIAN TRADE GROWS.
Rapid Increase This Year in Both I'M
ports and Exports.

WASHINGTON, Sept, ga report from
Consnl-General John P. Bray, of Mel
bourne. states that the trade of Aus
tralia for the first half of the present year
shows a marked increase over former
years both in imports and exports.
The imports II exports of merchandise
excluding gold wsre valued at Sill. 9Os.-
2l2 and s1S7 ,631, 1s0. respectively, the i'm
ports showing an increase of ST., PSI, 500
and the exports of 500, 125, ISL over the cor
responding period of 1906. The net exports
of gold latter deducting imports of the
value of A.712,5cD amounted to $23. O96, OS7,
a decrease of SIS. 269. SOS from those of the
first half of last year. The increase in
the value of imports of merchandise
which. compared with 1906, is over IS per
cent. and with 1905 over 80 per cent. is
due to the greater purchasing power of
the people arising from a succession Of
good seasons. The magnificent wool crop
with good prices is the main contributor
10 the larger exports, though greater pro-
duction in other staples has greatly as
sisted.

GLASS MAKERS BUSY
THOSE OF SOUTH JERSEY
ENJOY PROSPERITY.
Labor in Demand and Employers and
Employees as Happy as the
Farmers with Big Crops.

CLAYTON. Sept. 23.-It has been many
years since South Jersey could boast of
such general prosperity as now prevails
Farmers have had the best season OF tneir
lives, and the outlook for a record sea
son for the glassworkers is good.
At Clayton all the glass factories are
running full time, and fire has even been
put In the "dinky house, which is usual
ly reserved for emergencies, and 1t will
start work about the middle of this week
Electric engines have been Installed at
Pierce's factory, in place of steam, and
they prove more satisfactory.
At Williamstown one of the factories,
called the "merry-go-round." has been idle
the last week for repairs and some of the
blowers have left for the West. If he re-
pairs are not finished soon it will be diff
cult to get men to fill the places of those
who are going away. At Swedesboro the
boy helper question is n serious PROPOSE
ton. Although the factory has Its own
barracks, where 1t quarters italian help, 1t
is still short of boys and packers. The
company is building fourteen houses,
which will be rented only to families who
have boys who will work in the factory.
Boys are also scarce at Glassboro, where
another house is ready to start work as
soon as the necessary help can be obtained.
The Woodbury. bottle works, which have
been run with oil as fuel for several years,
have been forced back to coal by the high
price of oil. The repairs on the big
house" at Woodbury. are being pushed to
completion as rapidly as possible, as there
are many orders waiting.
At Millvile most Of the factories are
running day and night, and many of the
shops have enough orders to last them the
entire fire. The W~hitall-Tatum Company
will start a new tank tomorrow.

THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK. Sept. 2S.-The cotton mar
ket opened easy at a decline OF 129l6
points In response TO lower cables and sold
off to a net decline of 1922 points during
the early session. under liquidation by re-
cent buyers and bear pressure, which was
encouraged by the failure of heavy storms
to materialize In the South. This carried
the market back to practically the lowest
point of last week and there was con-
siderable covering at the decline, but the
market showed little rallying power and
the undertone was unsettled during the
middle of the morning with prices only a
point or two up from the bottom.
The market continued weak late in the
forenoon on the forecast for generally
fair weather in the Eastern belt and
the continued absence of reports of DAM
age from the Equinoctial disturbances.
Prices worked off 70 a net decline of rs
% points in the active months, and
at midday were within a point or two Of
the lowest.

BRITISH FIRM BEATS
US, DESPITE TARIFF,

NEW YORK, Sept. pa British engi-
neering concern has captured. in competi-
ton with American builders, the most i'm
pcrtant Porto Rico sugar factory contract
let for nearly two years.
The contract, which is worth about $780,
900, calls for the complete construction and
equipment of a factory to be operated in
the Oroyaya district of Porto Rico by Porto
Rican capitalists. The import duty on the
Scotch machinery entering Porto Rico will
amount to s157, 500. Had the award been
made to an American concern. of course
there would be no tariff to contend with,
as Porto Rico is United States territory.
On the other hand, the Scotch firm had the
advantage of the freight end In the con-
tract. From Glasgow to Porto Rico the
rate averages So a ton, whereas from New
York to Porto Rico, though less than half
the distance, the cost would be around s13
a ton.

PACIFIC B BREAKS.
Electricity Gave Out Between Midway
Island and Guam.

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-The officers
of the Commercial Gable Company an
nounced yesterday hat there had been
a break in their Pacific cable some
Where between their relay station at
Midway Island and Guam. They were
inclined to think hat an earthquake
may have been responsible for the In
~terruption in the cable service, but in
the absence of all word from the
operators at Guam they could not as
sign a cause positively.
Since the Commercial Cable Conn
pany's line is the only one connecting
America with the Orient directly, all
cables for the Philippines, Japan and
points on the China coast will have
to be sent around the other way at a
rate about double that charged across
the direct San Francisco Yokohama
line.
