SPAIN SEEKS
WINE TRADE
BY LESTER ZIFFREN
United Press Staff Correspondent.

MADRID, Oct. 5. tU.Pi-The Ma
tional Wine Institute of Spain has
announced it is preparing to launch
a propaganda campaign in the Uni
ted States in an effort to obtain q
portion of the United States mar
ket, if prohibition is repealed.
The Institutes announcement
presages a keen battle for United
States business. The Spaniards, it
is understood, will be willing to Of
fer certain trade concession in or
der to gain foothold in the i'm
ported wine market. They also feel
that Frances war debt default will
work against that nation.
The Spanish wine growers believe
they have a wonderful opportunity
to increase their exports if prohibi-
ton is abolished in the United
States. Julio Tarin, director of the
Spanish wine institute, explained
that this country has wine for aper-
itifs and the table, and iqueurS for
after dinner.
I'VE are making extensive plans"
he said for propaganda cam
paign in the United States. During
the next thre months the field will
be studied thoroughly. and in 1884
we plan to advertise on broad
scale. Art and scenic beauty will be
oied-up in our advertising. We re-
Gently held a contest among Span
ish artists for posters which will be
used.
Although France produces more
wine that we do, Spain exports
more. France, during the last few
years produced an average of 65,-
$4,000 hectoliterS annually. Italy
was second with 40,902,000, and
SPAIN third with 22,488,0O0. BuC
we exported approximately 3,676,00o
hectoliters while France exported
1,5l1,OO0 and Italy, 1,061 ,000..'

The bill recently introduced in Con-
gress by Ex-Governor Byrd, now Sen
ator from Virginia, to prevent the ex-
porting of commercial and loW-grade
apples, is apparently looked upon as
| a long needed measure and is recelv-
ing universal support and endorsement
Of the trade generally. The larger OPP
orators in apples, it is reported are
squarely behind the purpose of the
bill, which they say will eliminate
overlooking of the export markets with
inferior fruit to the decided detriment
of the better grades. Furthermore, APP
pie men, including the international
Apple Association membership express
the belief that a fair volume Of good
grades can be exported profitably to
growers which will reflect favorably
on domestic markets in minimizing the
volume to be consumed. Dealers in the
eastern states have wired their SEN
ators urging support to the bill which,
as the Byrd and Townsend bill S-877,
will soon come before the Senate COM

This dividend is the fourth dis
bursement made this year and
the fourteenth consecutive quar-
terly payment since the original
public offering of Hearst shares
in July. 1880.
Strong Earning Power
Dividends for the entire year
were entirely earned by an ample
margin during the first three
quarters Of 1888, rejecting the
strong earning power Of Hearst
Consolidated in spite OF most
drastic depression conditions.
Net earnings for the IL months
ending December 81, 1888, accord.
ing to present estimates, Will
equal the previous years profits.
Twelve seasoned and successful
publishing enterprises, spanning
the nation in advertising and cir
culation, compose the corporate
structure of Hearst Consolidated
Publications, Inc, and insure the
tremendous earning power OF that
company.
This group includes the Amer
lean Weekly Magazine, with the
largest circulation of any publica-
ton in the world; the New York
Journal, with the greatest evening
circulation of any newspaper in
the United States; the San Fran
cisco Examiner, parent newspaper
of the Hearst organization; the
93-year-old Pittsburgh Sun-Tele-
graph, Los Angeles Examiner,
Detroit Times, Chicago Evening
American, Los Angeles Herald
EXPRESS, San FTduC1SCO NdA4-ol4-
letin, Seattle Post-Intelligencer,

lean Newsprint Corporation.
10000 Stockholders
These properties have back
ground of a half-century of sue
cessful operation and public con-
fidence.
There are more than 100000
stockholders in Hearst Consoli-
dated Publications, Inc, who
have invested in this security be.
cause of its outstanding record,
especially during the depression
years.
The Hearst organization in its

retirement of current bond matu-
rites, bond interest and divi-
dends on the z per cent Class

ing is indicative of the strength
and promptness of the Hearst
organization in meeting all finan-
cial obligations.
