The relatively large amount of inn
ports entered with "all other countries"
is due to the imports of rice (S3, ,962, ,661)
from French East Indies and from
Siam (S156,60S), countries not desig-
mated in the foregoing list
To arrive at any fair conclusions as
to the standing of the United States in
the Philippine import trade, and where
in such standing can be Increased. it is
necessary to eliminate for the present
to some extent certain products sup
piled by Asia and Australasia, among
which are cattle, imported from China
and French East Indies; coal from
Australasia; rice from French East In
dies and Siam; fresh beef from Aus
tralasia, and other meats from Aus
tralasia and China. In relation to the
flour trade of the islands, the bureau of
insular affairs says:
Up to 1904 this was virtual mo-
nopoly of the United States, but Ameri-
can flour has rapidly lost ground since.
and in 1907 the imports amounted to
only S396.151, while the Australasian
product, with the advantage of a
shorter haul and a lower price. has
found steadily increasing market in
the Islands, from nominal value of
S1,1S5 in 1903 to s649,704 in 1907"
The flour imports from the United
States in 1907 averaged about s4.04 per
barrel and from Australasia 1888 per
barrel.
Deducting the total imports of Asiatic
and Australasian imports leaves about
$20.000,000 as the imports into the ISL
ands wherein American trade might at
once be increased
According to the bureau of insular
affairs the shipping engaged in the
foreign trade of the Philippines in
1907 was as follows:
