INCREASE IN EXPORTS
Total for Past Year Will Approxm ate
100000.

Washington. Dec. PA new and in
| tercsting development in the export
trade Of the United States is a rapidly
growing movement Of merchandise tC
Japanese territory in China. The terri
tory In question. which was in lS9;
leased by the Chinese Government t.
! Russia and transferred from Russian
control to that Of the Japanese Govern
ment by the treaty which terminated
the war between Japan and Russia
includes Port Arthur and the adjacent
port of Talienwan, now known az
Dalny, with certain adjacent territory.
and is the terminus OF that branch OF
the railway which connects the Russian
Trans-Siberian line through Manchuria
with Port Arthur and Dalny. To this
geographical area, designated by the
Bureau If Statistics of the Department
of Commerce and Labor as Japanese
China" the exports from the United
States have rapidly increased during
the current year until they now exceed
$l,500,000 a month, and seem likely to
show for the year about to end total
Of approximately $9,000,000 against less
than $3.50 900 last year, while during the
period ir which it was under Russian
control our direct exports to that ter
rtOry rever reached as much as 81 000,-
00G in any calendar year The total value
of shipments to Japanese China" in
the six months ending with December.
1906, was $l2S,000; in the single month
Of January 1907, $4,000; in February,
sl27. 900; in March. $245, 900: in April,
$433.010; in June. $606000; in July.
seaS, 600; in August. $4,000; in Septem-
Der, l.540,0U0 and in October, 1,605, 900,
making for the ten months Of the calen-
dar year for which figures are now
available $5,G9i 900. and should the
November and December totals run at
the rate OF those of September and
October. the total for the year would
thus be nearly $9,0O0.0oc
This new movement of merchandise
from the United States to Japanese ter
rliory in China is especially Interesting
both in view OF the interests felt re-
garding the effects Of Japanese occupa-
ton upon American trade with that
section Of China and the. relation Of
this movement to the figures Of our
trade with China proper Our total ex-
ports to the Chinese Empire for the
ten months ending with October, 1907,
are $50. 422,0 900. against $26, 400, 600 in the
same months OF the preceding year;
and IL this movement to Japanese
China" be considered in conjunction
with the exports to the Chinese En-
pire and "Japanese-China' would be
slightly in excess Of that Of the CORES
bonding months of 1906. How much of
this merchandise passing to Japanese
china proper cannot Of course. be de-
ternined, though the fact that the class
Of merchandise forming the bulk Of
this total consists Of street cars, rails
for railways, structural iron and steel
and other articles Of this class suggests
that il is largely for use in the cities
and railway lines within the territory
designated as japanese China"
