UNITED STATES
AS DISTRIBUTOR
OF MERCHANDISE
Quantity OF Merchandise Brought To
This Country For Others Is
Increasingly Yearly.

Washington, July 12.-The quantity
of foreign merchandise brought into
the United States and redistributed Il
other parts OF the world increases
year by year. The value of foreign
merchandise exported from the United
States amounted to twelve million dol
lars in $780, twenty-four million in
1900; and thirty-six million in 1911,
having doubled in the decade, 1890
1900, and increased so per cent since
1900.
Art work, chemicals, cotton, fruits,
furs and fur skins, fibers, hides and
skins, India rubber lead, lumber, to-
bacco and suger are the most impor-
tant of the articles or classes of ar
ticles imported and re-exported,
though to this list must be added
many other articles of less impor.
lance. Canada, England, Germany,
France. Belgium, Cuba, Mexico, and
Argentina are the principal countries
to which this foreign merchandise is
exported, though the full list to which
merchandise of this character is sent
includes every grand division of the
world. more than 20 countries.
IT seems curious to think of the
United States sending foreign mer-
chandise to England, the greatest i'm
Dorting country in the world. and yet
lore than nine million dollars worth
foreign merchandise was sent from
United States to England In the
cal year 1910. This inciuasd mo- ~ o.

Relief Asked for from Some Of The
Southern Railroads
RATES STYLED EXCESSIVE
The, international Agricultural Cor.
poration Seeks Redress Through the
Interstate Commerce Commission
The Ruling Will be Of Great Impor-
lance TO Fertilizer Manufacturers.

Washington, March 13.-Alleging
that many Of the southern railroads
are maintaining grossly and unlaw-
fully excessive rates" over the large
territory covered by their lines. and
refusing Joint through rates to many
important points, the International
Agricultural corporation filed with the
interstate commerce commission to-
day petition asking not only for re-
lief from the present rates but also
for the establishment of reasonable
joint through charges The petition
also asks PREPARATION for large
amounts already paid under protest
over and above fair rates. The
amount In dispute will reach 100000
by the time ruling is obtained.
On sulphuric acid, which when COM
bined with phosphate rock makes acid
phosphate. the basic ingredient of
commercial fertilizers, the commission
is asked TO order reductions of from
40 10 60 per cent in the rates now
offered from Copperhill, Tenn. where
100000 tons of sulphuric acid are
produced annually, to Richmond, Nor
folk, Savannah. Jacksonville aud
large number of other southern and
southeastern points.
THE petition states that the present
rates are so unreasonable and excess
siye that the complaining corporation
Is unable to market It's product or
use IL In the manufacture of fertilizer
in many of the most important dis
tributing centers.
Not only are the railroads rates
complained OF as being excessive in
themselves, but il is alleged that their
charges grossly discriminate in favor
OF iron pyrites. the equivalent in solid
form of liquid sulphuric acid. al
though the transportation OF the lat
ter is less costly 10 the carrier.
The commissions ruling will be Of
great Importance TO fertilizer manu-
facturers and consumers Owing to
its supplies OF phosphate rock the In
ternational could greatly increase the
acid phosphate supply but for the
present high railroad rates on his
product.
