from which the following summarized
trade review of the country has been

The year 1908 was the most pro-
gressive period In the history Of the
Argentine Republic. During the year
over 1000 miles of railroad were con.
structed and concessions were granted
for tho building of over 5000 miles
more. The earnings of the railroads
increased 20 per cent In spite of the
TACT that the preceding year marked
a notable increase over 1906. The
total earnings for 1908 were s1Ol, ,391..

and, although Mr. Lane. the electrical
engineer of the Bamberger road es-
Inmates that over 1000 horsepower

it went to his mouth.
