OUR PHILIPPINE TRADE.
Last Year We Had Sixth of the ImS

Last Year We Had sixth of the Im<
ports and n Third of the Exports.
From the Journal Of tie American Asari1 Asso-ia-
ton.
The share Of the United States IN the
import trade Of the islands last year
amounted 10 St6N,0o, and was SSsL7l7
less than in 1905 Nearly half or the
years total was made up Of leather and
iron and steel. and o. the two great
American export staples, wheat Hour and
Illuminating oil while the balance was
of a widely diversified character.
American goods constituted i per cent
Of the total value Of Philippine Imports
and there was a relatively insignificant
increase over the proportion of the pre-
vious year.
That under the free trade conditions
inaugurated by the new tariff Of August
s. 1909. there Will be a considerable in
crease in the volume Of American ship
ments IS to be expected. but 10 what ex-

tition with other countries intrenched In
the trade, and the extent to which the
American manufacturer Will press his
opportunity and adapt his products to
the native tastes and requirements.
OF the years exports the United States
took only a slightly smaller value than
in 1898. being credited with S10.2I5.331. or
a third Of the total. The large American
demand for hemp has made the United
States q good customer OF the islands
in the past. Limited free entry Of Phil
ippine sugar and tobacco under the new
tariff provides a much improved market
for these staples and free admission OF
other commodities furnishes a new
stimulus to their production.
A new era Of activity and an increased
volume Of trade is therefore to be ex-
pected with the lapse Of the restraining
clause Of the Treaty Of Paris and the
establishment of practically unrestricted
commercial conditions between the two
countries.
