ITALY WILL LOSE BY
PANAMA CANAL
Great Emigration Is Expected To Result
To West Coasts of North and
South America.

Rome, Dec. l.--Italy is following with
the greatest interest everything connect

Romans. The opening of the canal VIII
affect Italy, above all, in its principal
expectation, namely, emigrants In Co.
lombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Chill,
new fields of activity will be found for
| them and, furthermore, the emigration
/ to the western coast of Mexico, the
| United States and Canada will be in
creased. Already several Italian lines
are preparing lines of navigation. Also,
| it is calculated that once the means OF
transportation is facilitated, Italian ex-
ports to South America will be at least
doubled, while those for the western
coast of Mexico, the United States and
Canada will increase greatly
When the Suez canal was finished,
Italian emigration was very limited and
did not reach 100000 a wear, but be-
tween 1876 and 1886 the annual average
had become 10000. Between 1886 and
1900 that number was doubled, and from
1900 it has reached an average of 600,-
600, while in 1906, the highest year on
record, the emigrants were 1891. In
1912 they were 70S,669, and this year
they may surpass in numbers those OF
1906.
An average of half this emigration
goes across the Atlantic-the greater
part being absorbed by the United
States. This trans oceanic tide in 1908
numbered 440, 1888, of whom 3l0,976 went

to Brazil, as emigration there was pro-
hibited by the Italian government.
What remains, merely 1899, went to the
other countries of the American conti-
nent. The same proportion as that OF
the record year, 1906, occurs in other
years, SO that in 1912, out of 3l2,2l0
trans oceanic emigrants 20S,447 went to
the United States, 50,30s to the River
Platte, 23.4ss to Brazil and the remain

low the development and direction OF
Italian commerce, as the commerce OF
Italy, as a rule. has followed the poor
emigrauts, so the saying that trade
follows the flag" can be modified for
Italy as "trade follows the rags" Of her
migratory sons. For two years the fig
ures of Italian imports and exports have
surpassed 81 ,20o000O00. The foreign
office here, at the end OF 1911 published
statistics showing that the Italian inn
ports and exports had so increased as
to surpass proportionately the increase
of any other country.
Putting at 100 the imports and ex-
ports of each country in 1908, it was
calculated that at the end of 1910 that
percentage had risen as follows:
