Kxt inordinary Showing of I*roKj??-rity
Washington, 1>. <\ (Special).?An illustration
of the rapid growth of our
manufacturing Interests is found in
the fact that the exportation of manufactures
of metals during the year
1P00 will reach S'jun.noo.om. The tig
tires of the 'treasury Bureau of Statistics
for the ten months ending November
1 show that more than SUhukmi.OUO
worth of iron and steel and more than
hmt,(mmi worth of copper had been
exported during the ten months, and
these figures, coupled with those relating
to the less important manufacturing
metals and the articles manufactured
from metals, hut. not included
ruder these general terms, will bring
the total for the year up to fully
$?tJO.tMMt.Ohl t.
In steel rails the exports of tinyear
will aggregate Sl'J.t>:! ?,(?;?:?, ?>< an
averag - of SI .tWMi.nuu per month, while
it was not. until 1N?7 that the figures
for any entire year reached as nire-h
as tjtl.noo.tHMj. .Nearly St.nu.) n ut worth

\vilh the American steel mils, :in?l the
total l'or tlie year seems likely to reach
about KJIt.tHio in value. Tiic American
rails and locomotives .arc in turn
accompanied by American ears, of
which the exportation for steam railways
will amount to $:;,()< in.onti during
the year, ami fir other railways more

that for the construction and operation
of railways outside of the United
States the manufacturers of this country
will supply liming the year fully
$'-.T?,000,<MH) worth of material.
The rapid growth in the exporiaii- u
of metals and those of which metals
form a large proportion in value is illustrated
by some llgures regarding,
our export trade of the decade. .Manufactures
