fail nearly 100 million dollars be-

Imported of nearly all important ma
terials for manufacturing exceeds. in

earlier fiscal year.
While this statement regarding
the quantity of materials imported
inthe fiscal year 1903 is based upon
only II months completed figures,
the record of the bureau of statistics
of the department of commerce and
labor. is now sufficiently complete to
give assurance that Of the principal
materials imported for manufactur-
ing nearly all will show larger guam
titles brought into the United States
in the fiscal year 1903 than in any
earlier year. The principal articles
imported fer use in manufacturing
are silk, cotton. wool, vegetable
fbers. tobacco. india rubber, hides
and skins, copper. tin, and lumber
These ten articles represent more
than one-half OF the total value OF
manufacturers materials imported
and the quantity brought in in the
year just ended is in nearly all cases
greater than in any preceding year
though in many instances in which
the quantities have increased the
values are less than those of two
years ago. owing to the fact that
prices per unit of quantity are In
1909 materially less than in 1907.
