NO BISMUTH MINED.

So far as known 10 the United
State geological survey no bislnuth
was produced in this country in
1912, although - little ore taken
from mine al I.cndvillc. Colo, in
1911 was sold in 1872. The or" was
rich in gold and carried l5.47 per
cent OF bismuth. y considerable
quantity of bismuth was produced as
by-producL Of smrltrrs. and it ap-
pears entirely possible that in timo
enough bIsmuth may be- produced
from the various smelters TO suppl
the domestic market. The imports
of bismuth in 1912 amounted L"
1S2,S40 pounds. valued at $%l6.i+",

ion Of the commission, certainly
take steps to promote . rapid growth
of her, mercantile shipping.
One Of the most important conse-
quences Of the opening of the canal.
the commission finds, will be not
merely to provide facilities for ex-
isting commerce, but 10 create a new
traffic which will result In the eco
homie conquest OF the Pacific and
the exploitation of the natural
riches of the western part of the two
American continents by the capital
and industry Of the eastern states
Of the union. The canal, the COM
mission predicts, will profoundly
modify the situation of the Atlantic
and the Gulf Of Mexico ports of the
United States from the point Of view
of the worlds commerce. When the
American manufacturer has the
same advantage in respect TO trans
port that he now has in the cost OF
production over his European COM
petItOr. the worlds markets will be
his. The rapidly with which husi-
ness will increase in the United
States will have far-rcachinG effects
on the economic life Of Europe,
which will be- Obliged to transform

Incalculable Advantage.
The United States. the French
government Investigators affirm,
will obtain an IncalculabIc advan-
tagc from the Rcw canal, and Eu-
rope may even find its Industrial
activity diminished. While impos-
siblr to express in figures the Geo
monte consequences, some c0nsidcra-
tinnS are mentioned The day be
fore the opening I'll the canal.
France. so Tar as transportation is
concerned, will b. nearer TO all
points on the west coast Of South
America than the eastern ports of
the United States. Tho day after the
opening of the Plnama canal, the
situation will hr reversed. Gnyaqmil,
GalIaO aud Valparaiso will be- more
than 1000 miles nearer New York
than to France, and New Orleans
5000 miles. The cutting Of til"
isthmuS will permit shipS from the

eastern Australia more easily.
Europe benefits nov. not only Il!
the incorporating OF the Panama
canal, but by the existence Of the
Surz canal, but if he Americans
will have an advantage in their
ncarncss to the markets OF the west
