It mut be remembered that thee figures represent only the minimum amount of ach article required. The department ha power lo double the ounnllty If It sec fit. And a the emy In the rhlllpplnca Increases, so will the proposals be extended, and business trow still brisker. Th prepa ration and manufacture of all these ait'.il.s have sbnorbvd all the surpl labor of the market; the urgent de mand of the transport have practi cally cleaned up tho water front; shlp-wrla-hf are working overtime and nuking higher wage than they have ever lnc the pioneer aay long shoremen are Betting all the work they can poMlnbly do. and sailor never werf mi hard lo obtain.

But thl I know from many dealer, that the retail rne wa never in prosperous a at preserit. Bn with the agricultural Inter- et of the atate. Take potatoes a a staph, and you will find that th price this year In consequence of the enor- mou military demand has been main tained at about double Its former rate." i " AM F.RICA N BEEF ABROAD. l;oston Journal. There was no need to fear that that army beef Investigation would perma nently Injure the sale of American oanned beef abroad, It ha not don so. The July treasury rdturns show an Increase In our export of canned beef to foreign countrle. Tho real ex cellence of the average beef Is Irre- slstablc. As to provisions In general, too, our export trade la booming. For the elaht months ending with August, lK!t9, we sold $112,428,509 of theee goods ito our overseas ouatomers, as com pared" with 1108,815,200 In the first eight months of 1R93, $77,728,405 In the corres nondlnir oerlod of 1887 and $78,126,307 In that of 1808.
