Foreign Travel Declines
Sharply Below 1899
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Influenced by the war, travel to
and from the United States de-
clined about one-fourth during the
first half OF this year, compared
with the similar 1889 period, the
Commerce Department reported
yesterday.
American OUTLAWS for travel in
foreign lands during the six months
amounted to $148 500, 900, a decline
of SAC, 100 900 from 1889. Travel ex-
penses of foreigners in America de-
clined $l8.700, 900 to $50 ,0OO, 900.
American expenditures for travel
to Europe dropped from $35 ,700, 900
to $4,900 900, and, for the first time
in the 10 years that such records
have been kept, Europeans spent
more for travel in the United States
than Americans spent with them.
European expenditures here were
H,700,000 in the 1910 period, COM
pared with $4,000 900 in the previ-
GUS year.
Despite ofi1cial efforts to promote
1nter-American tourist trade, ex-
penditureS for travel in South
America declined 81 10000 to So, 1OO.-
600, while the outlay of South
Americans in the United States
dropped $2,200,000 to $l,8OO,OOO.
There was a slight increase in
travel to Mexico and Central Amer
lean countries.

MeGiII Staple Index

Special Dispatch to The Star.

AUBURNDALE, Oct. 5.-The in
dex of all commodities compiled by
the McGill Commodity Service. Inc,
continued its upward trend during
the week ending october 4, and cur
rently stands at TIA as against TOO
a week earlier.
All major sections of the index
were higher including industrial,
agricultural and live stock prices.
Of the IA individual group classical
tons, nine advanced during the
week, four remained unchanged,
while only one-vegetable oils-de-
clined.
The industrial index advanced
for the sixth consecutive week, as a
result of higher prices for hides

paint materials. paper and pulp, and
fine and coarse textiles. The only
weakness was in vegetable oils.

Prices for Heavy Cattle
Up Sharply al Chicago
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Oct. 5.-The price of
choice granted beef cattle was
quoted today in the Chicago live
stock market at virtually the best
level since 1887.
With cattle receipts the past week
the smallest since July and whole
sale and live meat markets deriving
strength from improved consumer
demand due to the national defense
program, the value Of best cattle
advanced Is to so cents per hun
dredweight this week and in some
instances yearlings were up IS cents.
This carried the extreme top for
steers up to 1890 per hundred
weight, highest of the year and
virtually on a par with the peak
prices paid early in 1899.
The Chicago average price for
choice and prime steers has ad-
vanced almost 81 per hundredweight
in the past two months and is al
most 50 above the 1910 June low.
At the peak in 1887 it was
around $l8.
Livestock men here said dimin-
ished supplies of best cattle coupled
with good demand have contributed
to the markets strength.
