THROUGHOUT SOUTH
JncrcMJiliia Diversity In Mannfac*
turn nnil Al«e In Agriculture.
Coal Situation In Alabama.
BALTIMORE. June 27.—Throughtout
the South there Is general activity in
< \(‘rf line of Industry and in every di
rection art Been signs of increasing di
versity In manufacture* and alto in
osricuiture. In covering the progress
of that section, the Manufacturers'
Record this week report* the rapid de
velopment of large bodies of farming
land in Louisiana, In connection with
the remarkable advance In rice grow
ing in that stats and also in Texas. In
a district which fifteen years ago
scarcely produced a pound of freight,
and which was so unfavorably regarded
by the Southern Pacific railroad that Its
offlcars refused to build a station, be
lieving that the Mttlement of that sec
tion was Impossible, there are now 20,-
000 to 25,000 Western people located, In
addition to a great many Southerners
who have been drawn to the same re
gion by the remarkable develpoment of
the rice Industry, based on vast Irriga
tion plans which nasure an abundant
supply of water at all seasons. In that
district 9,000 McCormick reapers were
used last year In cutting rice, which
Is harvested like wheat In the West,
and out of that same territory, too poor
fifteen years sgo to Justify even a small
depot, the Southern l*aciflc last season
hauled 12.000 carloads of rice. Tb s
great development, takenjn connection
with the remarkable advance of the oil
Interests of southwest* Lulslana and
southeast Texas. Is Illustrated In the
statement made by an officer of the
Southern Pacific road, that the railroad
passenger receipts at Beaumont now
average 510.000 a month, against TOO a
month three years sgo, and also by the
fact that a number of companies have
recently • been organised, one with a
capital stock of $9,000,000, another with
a capital stock of 59.000.900. for th-»
purchase of immense bodies of land ag
gregating In the Utter csm 200,000
acres, which will be developed *ith
great Irrigating canaU and utilized for
the growing of rice and other agricul
tural products. to active.Is the devel
opment In that section that Immlgra-
tion offices are to be opened In Holland
and Japan. In another Mctlon
Texas the peach and trucking Industry
Is assuming Urge proportions, and one
orchard of 20,900 acres Is now being
developed, with many smaller ones In
the same territory. At the dther ex
treme of the South the Korfolk-Vir-
ginla trucking district Is burdening the
railroads and steampshlp lines with an
enormous crop of potatoes, which are
.• 'I r?ed as bring;: : i r! -s high*r
than for the last eight of ten years.
Between these two polnU. VirginU and
Texas, there are everywhere seen sign*
of an Increasing diversity of agricul
tural Interests, even If the develpoment
has not yet been quite so pronounced
as at these two frofnts.
Turning from agricultural to manu
facturing interests, progress in every
direction U even more pronounced.
• Charlotte <N. C.) people. In connection
with outside capital, have organised \
$£99,900 cotton 1111 company to build %
plant with 25,909 spindles, for making
Va.. a 520.000 knitting mill will be built.
In West Virginia and Kentucky the ac
tivity In development of coal mining,
and lr. oil. Is greater than ever before.
West Virginia will this year produce
nearly 80,000,000 ton* of coal, or about
three-fourths .as much as the total bi
tuminous’coal output of the United
State* In mo.
Mr. P. E. Saward of Now York, rec
ognized as a coal authority, in a com
prehensive letter In the Manufacturers*
Record st-MIng forth the strength of the
coal situation of Alabama, points out
the remarkable development of this in
dustry In that state, nnd show* how the
growth of the Induitrlnl Interests of
the South Is rapidly Increasing the
horn# market for AMbflma coal, while
the Improvement of the Warrior river
now under way by the national gov
ernment will enable Alabama to control
tho coal trade of the New Orleans dis
trict, now largely supplied by Pitts
burg. and also the coal trade of the
West Indies and Mexico, with a prac
tically unlimited future for Alabama
coal when onps the active construction
of the Isthmian canal has been com
menced. Mr. Saward wye:* ‘The ac
tive competitor with Alabama coal is
the product of Pennsylvania mines, two
thousand miles away. This It meets
at New Orleans, but a glance at the
map will ehow that the natural water
outlet ot Alabama Is the Warrior river,
and this fact has been fully recognized
by the United States government, which
for years has been slowly building sub
stantial locks and dams In the Warrior
rtvsr. When this Is completed It may
bt confidently expected that Pennsyl
vania and Ohio will not be poaelble
competitors.
And. pointing out the rapid.Increase
in the consumption of coal by the de
velopment of the fro* Industry of the
state and the general advancement of
the Industrial Interests of the entire
central South, he refers to the great
Increase which will follow the begin
ning of the work on the Isthmian eanal,
and says: "From Its Inception the
Isthmian canal will require coal. From
the nature of It, the work will be main
ly done by machinery. To drive this
vnacbemy will require enormous quan
tities of coaL further, large quanti
ties will be required to propel the ship
ping to deliver tho tremendous amount
of machinery and supplies which w|11
be called for In a project of this mag
nitude. This Increase In demon# for
coal will again be trivial compared to
that which will .Inevitably oris* on the
completion of the canal, which, with
the unlimited capacity of the United
States available for th# work, should
be no distant date. Then half of the
steam shipping of the world will rail
for coal at the Isthmus, for, as the
storage of coal la the heaviest tax on
tho space of frelght-eai^ylnir vessels,
they will endeavor to arrive at the ra-
r al with empty bunkers, to be replen
ished there. Moreover, the canal will
open up to us the entire western coasts
of North and South America, as well at
the Orient. In this way will arise a de
mand for coal such as exists nowhere
elM In the world.**
AMERICAN FLOUR
WANTED IN CHINA
Returning Kinlarnnts Insist on JUs-
Inu It Alone—An Immense Increase
In tho Trade.
WASHINGTON. June 27.—Tho popular
ity of American flour In China is attract
ing attention on both Aides of the globe
The British consul-general at Canton. In
port sent from China to Lohdcn and
published in that city. % statea that the
demand for flour amot.it emigrants re
turned from the United States la so great
thst tho quantity of flour Imported in
3*02 exceeded that of 1901 by X. 131.228
pounds, and was also some 71.400,0)0
pounds excess of th* averago for the past
flvs years.;
These figures of Increase In Chinese con
sumption of flour are Justified by the fig
ures of the treasury bureau of statistics
showing exaottAtlons of flour to China
and adjacent ports. Indetd. It Is only
when tbs shipments to the ports adjacaat
to China are considered that the rapidity
f Increase In exports of flour to that part
of the world is realized. To China alone,
the exports of American flour havo grown
from 15,711 barrels in !583 to 10,61 barrels
In 1502. This Increase of 52.901 barrels Is
■mall, however, compared with the In
crease In the shipments to Hongkong,
from which point most of tho flour there
received Is distributed to the various
points of Chinn. The exports of American
flour to Hongkong In 1892 were 417,09 bar
rels, and in 1902, l.395,193 barrels, an In
crease of 511,139 barrels. To Russian Chi
na, the exports of American flour, which
began in 1500, were 18X87 barrels, and In
IMS, 99,149 barrels. To British China the
flour exports were 376 barrels. Grouping
the three statements of exports of flour
from the Unites States to China, to Hong-
king and to Russian and British China,
the total f«>r 1152 stands at 171.449 barrels,
and for 1505, 1.(19,032 barrels. This shows
sn Incre.ise of over 3d per cent, in the
exportation of American flour to China
and to ports contributing to the consump
tion of China, while the total exportation
of flour In the same years was. In 1891
15,196,70 barrels, and 1 V/i, 17.7J9.202 barrel*,
an Increase of about 15 per cent.
From the standpoint of dollars. It mny
be ad led that the value of American flour
shipped to China grew from JCT.iil In 1192
