The Anchor line Cameronia left
Glasgow, Scotland, for New York with
so fist-class, $40 second.class and $50
third-class passengers. 1t is computed
that since the beginning of the year the
number leaving the Clyde for Canada
and the United States has been nearly
10000 of whom about so per cent. have
been Scottish emigrants. The figure
is more than double the total for the
corresponding period last year, when

U. S. GETTING CUBAN TRADE.

Cuba is getting to be good market
for American manufacturers. Accord
ing to the reports sent out by the
United States government many large
American manufacturers have found
the Cuban market so important they
have established branch houses in Ha-
vana with agents in every large city Of
the island, sometimes making Havana
the headquarters for all of the West
Indies. This, of course, is the ideal way
where the prospective market is large
enough to warrant it and it is usually
very successful, especially when care
has been exercised in securing a com
petent manager. ...-.
Other exporters content themselves
with simply sending a representative
to visit the Cuban trade periodically,
believing they can more profitabIyJ do
business direct with the customer than
through an agent. However, expert
ence has shown that this is in most in
oIohCCo very lntIDOu
of dealing with the problem, for the
reason that, however good the sales
man may be, he cannot know the pc
culiar conditions of the trade as well,
even after an extended visit or secure
as large a share of the business, as the
men who have been established here
for years. An instance, demonstrating
this, came to notice recently. A GER
tain well known American flour-mill-
ing company sent its best man to Cuba
to sell direct to the trade. After six
weeks hard work he succeeded in SELL
ing one carload of flour. Later the
same man returned with authority to
appoint local agent, and contract
was made with well known American
commission house with headquarters
in Havana. The representative ogeth-
er with one of the members of the CON-
mission firm, then carefully canvassed
the trade, the former using his techni-
cal arguments for his goods and the
latter supplying the direct selling
force, with the result that at the end
of four weeks work more than forty
carloads of flour were sold. Of course,
a brokerage commission had to be paid
but the greatly increased business and
the comparatively lower cost of obtain
ing it more than repaid the milling
company for the small amount of brok-
erage. No better argument as to the
value of the agency system, as applied
to Cuban conditions, can be given than
this, for it is almost an everyday oc-
currence.-Kansas City Journal.

SEEKS TO REDUCE DANGER.

Chicago, May 26.-The Interstate

of the commission to formulate new

FORTUNE AWAITS THE INVENTOR

1t was announced a few weeks ago
that a distinguished chemist of the
Imperial Technical school of Moscow
had solved the problem of making ar
tificial rubber, and that he could sell
the new product at about 80 cents a
pound. Yet, in spite of this widely dis
seminated piece of news, the pirce of
rubber remains pretty much the same.
The reason may be found by examin-
ing the patent office records. During
the past ten or twelve years hundreds
of patents for artificial rubber have
been taken out.
Substitutes have been made from
petroleum. from coal tar, turpentine,
peat, from nitrated linseed oil and by
treating cereals with phyalin. The lat
ter invention made considerable SEN
sation so long ago as 1860; yet judging
by the constantly increasing demand
for the natural product, it has had lit
tie effect upon the real rubber market.
