GROWTH OF THE SILK TRADE.
New York Imports 90 Per Cent of the
Silk Coming to This Country.

Silk Coming to This Country.
The growth of the silk industry in
this country makes an interesting
study, says the Mail and Express. The
annual product of the American mills
is worth about $780, 00, 900. Not only
has there been a marked increase in re-
cent years in both the value and
amount of production, but the mills
have produced classes of goods never
before attempted. Silk is now used
for such a great number of purposes
that its manufacture and importing has
grown to be a leading industry. In an
interview a New Yorker who is an au-
thority on everything pertaining to the
manufacture and importing of silk said
recently: I'VE can make anything IN
the silk line that can be made in the
world and that there is a market for.
There are, however. certain high novel
ties that we no not make. One Of the
noteworthy features of the trade dur
ing the last decade is the decline in
the price of raw silk and the great
improvement in nearly every depart
ment of machinery and appliances. The
silk imports at New York comprise
fully IS per cent of the total value CT
silk imports in this country. The large
mills are all represented in New York,
so that the metropolis in this industry
as in most others, is the center of distri-
button for this country.

ing a romantic novel Of life in Vir-
