FOflEIGN TRADE
Year 1909 Shows An In
crease In Manufacturers^’
Material and Falling Off
In Finished Products.
AJ
Washington, 1). C'.. July UG.
Complete figures of the loot* trade j
in 100 principal articles forming the
iui|K>r*.a ami exiiorta of the country
give the first available view of the
trade of the full fiscal year 1909.
They ahow a marked advance In im
ports of manufacturers' material, a
considerable advance lu the Iraportu
tion of certain foodstuffs, but a fall,
jng oft in the importation of finished
manufactures. On the export side
the falling off extonda to all the great
groujis -foodstuffs, raw material,
manufactures. This statement is
subject to slight modifications he
can*e of the fact that the advance
ftguioa of imports and exports of
the 100 articles, as supplied by the
bureau of Statistics of the Depart
ment of Commerce and l^abor, are
only those of value and not of quan
tities, and as prices have in some
casc*s declined it Is possible that the
lower figures of value In some cases
at least, repr< sent larger quantities
than last year, but In general terms.
It may he safely said that importa
tions of foodstuffs and manufacture'
material show an increase and otiose
of finished manufactures a decrease,
and that on the export side all of
the great groups show a decrease,
when compared with 190X.
The decline* In imimrts of manu
facture occurs chiefly in the textiles
—products of cotton, wool, silk and
fillers; also in manufactures of iron
and *te«U. The increase in importa
tions of manufacturers' nfatoria! oc
ean* in nearly oil of Uhe important
articles- hides and skins, India rub
ber, raw wool, and other articles of
less importance. The decline in ex
port of foodstuffs Is due apparently
to unusually high prices prevailing
In the markets of the United States
and a -consequent reduction in the
quantity exported; in cotton,-to low
prices per unit of quantity as com
pared with those of last year, :he
quantity exported being more than
Gt*0 million pounds in excess of last
year, but the value falling 2 > mil
lion dollars below that of last year
In manufactures the fall in ex|K>rts
occurs chiefly in Iron and steel of
various grades and classes, copper,
naval stores, lumber, and other
manufactures of wood, and miscel
laneous articles.
