TUN MORNING AS IVRJ AX, FlUDAl, NEPTRMRKK SO, ). THE TEA TRADE IS LOST TO NEW YORK Future Shipments Wilt Come to the Pacific Coast. BETTER TIME IS MADE Saving Also Made in Freights and the Tea is of Better Flavor Owing to Mild Climate. Taeoma Ledger. New York has lost 1U hold on the tea Importing trade of the country. The new crop of the present and fu ture will go east over the transconti nental roads after being brought across the Pacific In the regular liners. This, Tea Inspector Chapin says. Is practical ly true now, but It will be more mark ed In the future. Not only is better time made by shipments across the continent than by way of the Suez canal, but a sav ing in freights results and the tea Is of a better quality. By way of the Sues canal Into New York it takes of SO days to receive a consignment of tea even from Amoy, the most fav orable point In China. Three or four weeks' time would ship tea from China to New York by way of a trans-Paclfle liner and the transcontinental railroads. Tea Inspector Chapln Is an authority on teas. Not only does he thoroughly understand the quality of teas, but he waa for a long time engaged in the, tea trade and understands the condi tions of the trade In different parts of the country. "The tea trade Is being more and more localized," said the ta Inspector yesterday. "Inntea1 of supplying the markets from Near York as heretofore, the importations are IHng shipped frm the Pacific cjast direct to Jobbers in St. Paul. Chicago, St. Tvuls and other points. The Northwest !s sup plied from the coast. "New Y'rk has lost trade It can rever regain and a peculiar part of it Is that New York merchants are Just awakening to the fact that the trade Is slipping away. It now conts about 70 cents a hundred to hln tea from Chi na to New York by way of the coast This effectually dlspofw-s of the fiuer car al traffic. The heavy freight charges of '.he long Journey and the tolls exacted from passing through the canal are more than the traffic will bear. 'Tea xmilng overland has a better luiVX. iMkiNs llliN. "W " M attention, Business Ths Avtorian has added a number of the latest faces of type to its job printing de partment, and is prepared to turn out a quality of . . . COMMERCIAL PRINTING superior to any that can be procured elsewhere. It will pay you to call and get estimates on any and all kinds of printing. ! Finest Work Lowest t flavor than that going by the way of the Suez. I noticed that when I waa In the tea trade. The boats going by the way of the canal have to cross the equator, mud thl robs It of some of its flavor. On the Pacific th tea Is kept in a mild climate all the way across and over the continent. "For the new crop tea, time la all Important It la deslreed to get the tea into the market at the earliest possible time, and this can best be done by the Pacific routes. "For the reason that New York is no longer the Important tea importing center, I don't believe the secretary of the treasury will listen to an appeal from that quarter to have tea Inspec tion on the coast and at St. Paul and Chicago discontinued." fSEECHAM-s Wind Pain .
