"Last year the price of our coal at the port The great review of troops by the Tsar took of export rose very much higher than the price place to-day. The weather was superb, and, of coal in the United States. In spite of that the spectacle was a brilliant success, in spite our coal export was 38,000,000 tons. The Unit-Entmales (Bombay) of the apprehensions inspired in official quared States exported a little over 16,000,000.

The route by which the Tsar was to pass was guarded by a whole army of policu, tops, detectives, and spies, and even the Great Sum mer Garden, which his Majesty had to traverse with his escort in order to reach the Champ de Mary, was closed to the public, who were not admitted mil after the review was over to this favourite resort of St. Petersburg society.

Strong detachments of police, gendarmerie, and Cossacks were als posted at the different entrances to the city, where the soldiers were kept concealed in courts and elsewhere, in readiness to act at once if large bodies of workmen frum the workshops and factories should take it into their heads to march into St. Petersburg. for the purpose of making a demonstration to celebrate May Day (old style),

As a matter of fact, nothing untoward occurred, and the people who ranged the streets. watching the return of the troops to their barracks, wore the ord mary gay aspect of a boilday crawl-Reuter,

AMERICAN TRADE AND THE BRITISH COAL TAX.

The principal address at the annual meeting of the Iron and Steel Institute in London. was made by William Garrett, of Cleve land, Ohio, who prefaced his remarks by de- claring that Great Britain's supremacy in the iron and steel trade, so long held, is now lost.

"Your falling behind is partly due to the fact that up to the present you have had no com- petition may be wrong, but 1 venture to assert that during the past ten years all the British iron and steel manufacturers together did not spend as much money in improvements as the Carnegies did in two years.

Is your ingenuity and energy exhausted-you, who, at one time, were the greatest manufacturers in the world? I cannot believe it. In under show far you are behind in the output of wire rods, four of the best rod-inills in Great Britain during January did not produce as many rods as one of the wire mbails in the United States. Is there no remedy? And will Great Britain, the mother of that business, who taught the world how to make wire, give it up?" Dunbar, T. E. Andrew Carnegie followed with some remarks Deas, W. P. along the same lines. "You must look al

Davis; Miss A home," he said, "and develop the material you Dean, F. have

Seek ye first the United King-Donnels, dom, and the markets of the world will be added unto you.".

That Great Britain herself appreciates the truth of these American criticisms is apparent from the tone of recent comment in English trade journals and daily papers. The New York Tribune calls attention to a project which shows more than ordinary willingness on the part of British employers and workmen to pro- fit by the best features in American industrial methods. It says:

"Louis Cassier, editor of a technical maga: zine which is well known on. both sides of the Atlantic, announces a unique-enterprise. Fif teen or twenty workmen, selected from as many different establishments and representing a variety of industries in Great Britain, are soon:- to be sent to the United States in a body to study the ways of their Yankee cousins. A month or more will be devoted to the 'tusk, and during that time the, deputation will visit the principal manufacturing centres of the country. Each man is to be designated by the concern which employs him, but he is to be chosen from a number that have been nominated by their fellows. Employers and trailes-unions will cooperate in meeting the expense of the under- taking. Thomas Westgarth, managing director of what are said to be the largest works in the world for the production of marine engines, originated this idea, and it will be carried intr execution by Mr. Cassier.

"The experiment is well worth trying, from the British manufacturer's point of view. More over, the scheme is a tundsome tribute to the character and efficiency, of the Amérian work man which the latter will be quick to appreciate It will stimulate him to persist in a policy which commands the admiration and nnxiety of his industrial competitors in the Old World

The British coal tax of one shilling a con, which was included m the last budget and aroused such violent apprisition from the Bri tish coal interests, is being widely discussed in its relation to Eglish and American trade rivalry. The Philadelphic rear goes so far as to state that this inx will prove a "fatal blow to English trade supremacy." "Already American coal has a large sale in territory that wat, formerly supplied entirely from British mines, even in Brinash possessions,” rem rks the Atlanta Fourmil; the export tax will give American coal a still greater advantage and will certainly increase its sale in neutral mar- kets." The English and Scotch.comd-owners compla'n bitterly over what they term the in- johnson, J. justice and inequality of the provisions of the Jeffries, Rev. M. new tax. "Well has it been said that the tax Jenkins, C. M.

Irvine, Miss Irwin, C. W.

is not upon.coal, but upon the export trade in Juma, Mrs. coal," declares the Glasgow correspondent of the New York Iron Age, who points out that the burden of taxation will fall on the districts producing for export, while two-thirds of the coal produced in Great Britain will escape it.
