WASHINGTON. May 23. A publication of timely Interest, In view of the general ex change of courtesies between the United State and France, was made public to day by Mr. Frederic Emory, chief of the Bureau of Foreign Commerce, showing how this country progressed in trade relations with the French Republic last year. The paper Is an extract from the big volume en titled 'Commercial Relations for which rovers the entire field of foreign trade. It Is stated that nearly all the con sular officers In Franc speak of the grati fying Increase in the Importation of agri cultural machinery from the United States. Consul Thackara. of Havre, says that numbers of our mowers, reapers and bind ers arrive weekly at that port by the steam ers of the French line. Along the Loire river our farming machines are In use everywhere, and the men who use them say that In every instance they do their work well, are much more economical than the old-fashioned harvesting methods, and that the investment is a good one for the owner. Agricultural Implements bearing an Amer ican name are found at every country fair, says Consul Covert, of Lyons, and are highly prized. Representatives of mower and reaper and steam-engine firms in the United State recently have established a good business In that part of France. The Importation of our rakes, plows, har rows, drills and. In fact, nearly all farm Implements, Commercial Agent Griffin, of Limoges, says. Is a growing trade. Our manufacturers nevertheless would meet with even greater success if they made an attempt to study the conditions of the French trade or to adapt their machines to French requirements. Grain and hay are cut differently In France, and the stubble Is much shorter and the hay of a finer qual ity than In America. Another fact to be borne in mind is that oxen and cows are generally uned on farms. Instead of mules and horses; consequently the gearing of the machines must bo adapted to the slow pace of these animals. Consul Tourgee, of Bordeaux, notes that, although there Is In that region a steady enlargement in the number of implements of American make Imported, It Is almost impossible to get the ordinary French la borer to. operate them with that skill and efficiency which are almost Instinctive with the American farmer. This is, in a gTeat measure, due to the fact that every American laborer is, to a pronounced de gree, a mechanic, as well as a farmer. V.'hen a bolt breaks or a nut Is lost he hunts about in his tool box or workroom for something to take Its place, and in a short time his team Is, in most cases, doing Its work again. Not so with the French laborer. He has neither the skill nor the desire to mend the tool he uses, or even to keep it in reasonable repair. That is the business of other tradesmen the black smith, the cartwrlght, the mechanic and the painter. The French workman has no interest In labor-saving devices. In the park opposite the consulate, continues Mr. Tourgee, men are at work all summer long clipping the too luxuriant herbage. What are the implements they use? Lawn mow ers? Not at all. They are scythes, the blades of which are five inches wide at one and taper to a point at the other. They are sharpened by being pounded to an edge on a small anvil and have a snath made of the limb of a tree, with a short branch cut at a convenient length and Interval for a thole pin. Feeing this outfit, one Is irre sistibly impelled to look it over for the trade mark of "Tubal Cain & Co." There Is no demand on the part of Puch laborers for improved Implements. One American vorkman will do as much as four of these, and It Is because of this fact that American p;ducers can turn out work at less price than their French competitors, although wages are far higher. American brooms and rubber shoes, the consul says, have made their appearance In Bordeaux in such numbers during the past two years as to seem familiar. Our shoe machinery Is used in the largest shoe factory in France, situated In Limoges, and two hun dred and fifty thousand dollars worth of American dressed kid skins were imported into that region in 1900 for the manufac ture of shoes. There is a demand in France, says Mr. Thackara. for American oil-burning stoves for heating purposes. Care must be taken by our manufacturers not to attach any WEATHEE FORECAST.

Our low-priced watches, which have an enviable reputation for ex cellence, are copied outright and the Imita tions sold as American watches. Some means should be devised to overcome this competition. The exportation of fruits from Marseilles to the United States, Consul General Skin ney says, has been seriously affected of late by the lncreaflng attention given to these products In California. In one of the smaller cities near Marseilles, where the business is centralized, factories have been closed and other cities find their trade de creasing. Prunes, formerly shipped to New York, are now Imported from California during: bad crop years. Consul Covert, at Lyons, mentions, among the first articles from the United States that are sold In Lyons, cash regis ters, fountain pens, pencils, sausage grind ers, ice-cream freezers, egg beaters, stoves, saws, drills, planes, lathes, time recorders, electric fans, roller-top desks, revolving chairs, etc. American manufactures of all sorts are highly prized. Stores have signs announcing American fabrics, and there are several so-called "American bazars." though many of the articles they sell are not of American manufacture. QUIET IN STRIKE REGION MOVEMENT FOR A IJITt'MIXOUS STRIKE GENERALLY APPROVED. Mine Firemen Probably Will iio Out, lint Few Pump Men Are Expected to Quit EnRineer Refuse. WILKESBARRE. Pa., May 23. This was the quietest Sunday in the Wyoming re gion since the strike began. Two weeks ago to-day there was more or less ex citement everywhere, because the strike order was to go into effect the following day, and last Sunday there was much talk over the coming of PreIdent Mitchell to Wilkesbarre to make his headquarters, but to-day found the offices of the coal com panies entirely deserted, the clerks having completed their pay rolls early in the week, and at the strike headquarters no one was on duty but Miss E. C. Morris, President Mitchell's private secretary. The circular which President Mitchell sent out yesterday, warning the Polish, Slavish and Lithuanian miners to remain away from the bituminous region of Vir ginia and West Virginia, where strikes are now In progress, was read in many of the churches where the foreign miners attend services. - Some of the clergy made re marks urging the strikers who belong to their congregations to be law-abiding and be guided by their leaders so long as the leaders were faithful to the trust reposed in them. Some of the Polish and Lithuan ian clergymen are said to be opposed to the strike, or were opposed to it before it was declared, on the ground that the people intrusted to their spiritual care were not prepared to stand a long siege of idleness. Secretary Mullahy, of the Stationary Firemen's Union, reported to-day that the poll of the men employed at the various collieries has Just been completed, and that over 90 per cent, of the men will quit werk on June 2, unless an eight-hour day is granted them. Another officer of the union admits that the percentage of engineers who will quit work will not be as large, but very nearly so. What percentage of the pump men will come out Is not as yet known. If the local operators are to be believed It will be small, and there will be no trouble In filling all vacancies that may occur. The strikers here are inclined to look with favor on the action of the mine work ers' conference at Huntington, W. Va., In ordering a strike of the miners in Vir ginia and West Virginia. They think it will hasten the crisis in the anthracite re gion. Meetings of railroad men to discuss the advisability of refusing to handle nonunion and bituminous coal during the progress of the miners' strike were held In Wilkes barre. Kingston and Ashley this afternoon. All three meetings were secret. The Wilkesbarre meeting was more largely at tended than the one Friday evening. It was given out that the question was dis cussed in all its bearings, but no action taken. The meeting at Kingston agreed to take the matter up at another meeting, to be held next week. The Ashley meeting indorsed the miners' strike and will render financial aid. The railroad brotherhoods, with headquarters in this city, also will give financial assistance, but It Is said will not resort to a sympathetic strike. A big union meeting of railroad men will be held In this city on June 2. when the question of railroad crews handling non union and bituminous coal will be finally settled. It is expected that a number of grand officers from the various brother hoods will be present. The Rev. J. J. Curran. in a statement issued to-night, says a general strike of bituminous miners will bring about a crisis in the anthracite field, and the operators would have to treat with their employes. Another Attempt at Settlement. NEW YORK, May 25. With reference to recent rumors that there is still hope of settling the differences between the coal miners and operators the Tribune will say to-morrow: "Another attempt, it was learned last (Sunday) evening, will be made by the National Civic Federation to effect a settlement of the anthracite mines strike, and a meeting will be called in the city within ten days, unless the strike Is ended in the meantime. Under the by-laws of the Civic Federation Its arbitration committee cannot act unless both sides to the dispute ask fcr its services. In this case, while the miners are willing to accept the sei vices of the arbitration committee the operators have refused to agree to arbitration. The Civic Federation is now preparing to call a meeting of its full executive committee to see If any new plan can be arranged. The time for the meeting is expected to be fixed early this week and mun take place within ten days. There arc thirty-six mem bers on the committee. It includes Rishop Potter, who, as he is going to Europe at once, will not be able to attend the meet ing. Roth sides of the dispute will be asked to send representatives to the meet ing, though the operators have so far re sisted all overtures of the Civic Federa tion." KnRlneen Ilefnse to Strike. SHAMOKIN. Fa.. May 25.-By a vote of 43 to 15 the colliery engineers and pump men, at a mass meeting here this evening. resolved not to go on strike on June 2, even If the operators refuse to grant an eight hour work day at the present wage scale. Secretary George Hartlein, of the Ninth district executive board of United Mine Workers, addressed the meeting and urged his hearers to Join in the general strike if the coal operators refused to grant the eight-hour work day. TEAMSTEns WILL STRIKE. They May Tie Up the Entire Rnslness of Chicago Packing llonnen. CHICAGO, May 25. Five hundred union teamsters employed in the delivery of meat by the big packing houses went on a strike at midnight to-night for a substantial Inr crease in wages and for fewer working hours. As a result of the strike the men say no meat will be delivered to retail dealers to-morrow or at railroad stations for shipment out of the city. The strik ers say they have received assurances of support from othe other labor organiza tions whose members are employed at the stockyards, and that any attempt by the packers to fill their places with nonunion teamsters will result in a general tie-up of the packing houses. For the last two weeks the union, through a number of committees, has been making an effort to gain concessions from the man agers of the different firms. In every case, they aver, they have been denied conference, and at a meeting to-night it was decided to go on strike in an effort to force the packers to terms. Lahor Convention at Denver. DENVER. Col..

KANSAS CITY, Mo.. May .-Through its inability to hit Wolfe, Indianapolis dropped to-day's game to the Blues by the score of 4 to 2. As in Thursday's game, when Wolfe shut out the visitors, he kept the hits well scattered, and haJ it not been for free passes he issued in the first the story of to-day's game would have been made up wholly of ciphers as far as Indianapolis was concerned. An enthusiastic crowd of 4,500 persons attended the game, and they were given their money's worth from the time play was called until the close of the last inn ing. In the fifth Miller collided with Grady at first and was so badly injured that he had to be carried from the grounds. Grady bunted, and to beat it out he slid to the bag, feet first. Miller had his foot in front of the sack, and during the mix-up Miller's fcot was badly spiked, and it is probable that he will be out of the game for some time. Miller's mishap to-day makes the third of Watkins's men to be laid up from being spiked. In the fifth Kellum went into the box, and during the last five innings but two hits were placed to the Blues' credit. The game was practically won in the third. Nance drew a pass to first, and after Roth fuss had placed a good hit to deep center Smith made a single and Grady planted one to right field that counted for two bases, scoring Nance. Bevllle followed with a two-base hit, scoring another run. Grady came home on O'Brien's infield out. In the fifth Smith was allowed transporta tion, and Grady beat out a bunt. Then followed two sacrifices, which scored Smith and ended the run getting. Indianapolis did all of its scoring in the first inning, off bases on balls and a single. Score: Kansas City ....A.B. R.

WASHINGTON", May 25.-Wlth the ex ception of a few details, the arrangements for the funeral services over the body of Lord Pauncefotc, the British ambassador, who died yesterday morning, are now com plete. Lady Tauncefote to-day signified her ap proval of the arrangements tentatively made yesterday, by which service are . to be held Wednesday noon in St. John's Epis copal Church, after which the body is to be temporarily deposited in a receiving valut at Rock Creek Cemetery. A military escort will be provided by the War Depart ment to attend the funeral, which will be of a state character. A large number of messages of condolence from all over the world wfre received at the embassy to-day, but they were not made public. LONDON, May 26. The deep Importance attached here to the friendship of the United States could not be better exempli- I fled than by the unusually sincere expres sions, published In the London press, of re gret at the death of Lord Pauncefote, the Rrltlsh ambassador at Washington, and th high euloglums of his career In the United States. The papers this morning vie wlth each other in paying tribute to the inestl-J mable value of Lord Pauneefote's work to the empire in the difficult position which, as the Daily Chronicle reminds Its readers, is now the most exacting In the diplomatic service, and quite different from the time when Lord Stratford De Redcüffe described the Washington legation as "very pleasant socially, but not requiring any great talents politically." Naturally, the occasion leads to the re viewing of the various thorny questions Lord Pauncefote had to deal with, and some little resentment is still displayed over the manner in which Lord Sackviile West, Drltlsh minister at Washington from 1SS1 to 1SS8, was dismissed. But these allu sions are only made to emphasize the credit due Lord Pauncefote for the good relations now existing between Great Britain and the United States. Miss CInrke'a Body Incinerated.
