INSULTS TO THE GREAT STREAM Downy Stmms Began by Treatl Like & Trout Stream—Motor Boat Racs in {he Rapids Proposed for This Summer. 1t JAGARA FALLS, Feb. 2.—People with practical minds seem bent on stripping the cataract of Nlagara, Its rapids and the whirlpool of some of the attributes they e had. There will always be people who will regard as fact the story of the majden's sacrifice; Who will persist in be- lezaag that it was a yearly custom of the Inalan tribgs Uving In the vielnity of the faiis 10 macrifice the prettiest maidens of their tribes to the god that was Niagara But within the last ten of fifteen yeard many things have oecurred at Niagara of dissipate the domance of the cataract. Something of a shock was felt when the | engineers got busy and drove part of the viver Into the factories to turn wheels.

Frequently in summer time she went to wade in the river from near Prospect Point with no thought of ¢anger and there slake her thirst, greatly to the amazement of the people that gathered in the park at 30 cents aplece to be stunned with wonder at the might and majesty of the cataract. Naturally there was a public protest and many disillusioned demanded thelr money back: Bossy Simms had spolled the show from them. ‘‘Pooh,” they. cried, “this is a ftake! Fourteen miles to see this!" This was about 1360. This pioture of Bosoy Simms was taken when she was standing within 100 feet of the brink of the American fall. Soon after the publle profest her owner withdrew her to the quiet of a country lot. She had ne bovine successors In the park. But she had an imitator in the person of Amos Schweltzer, a shoemaker of Toronto, Ont., who on June 6, 106, made a perfect show of the cataract, For fully forty-five minutes he stood in’ the stream, 8o twenty feet from the brink and thirty-five feet out from Prospect Point, his - hat cocked over his ear and a cane in hls hands, this between 1:% and 2:16 a. m., with the tremendous beauty of Niagara set forth under a daszsling moon.

Of the score that entered for honors only one was killed, a woman who was sufficated In her barrel In the whitipool through slow work on the part of her supporters on shore.

SHARE OF WORLD'S TRADE Bureau of Manufactures Helps Amer- ican Industries. FINDS PLACES TO SELL GOODS Abundance of Valuable Information Distributed by Department, Which is Hampered by Lack af Funds., WABHINGTON, Feb. %.—The annual re- port of the chief of the bureau of manu- factures reveals some Important facts con- cerning the work of that branch of the De- purtment of Commerce and Labor. As the business men of the country become batter acqualuted with tne work of this bureau thelr demands on it greatly increase. Last year there was an increase of 3 per cent in the number of lstters written in reply to Inquiries, and so'far this year the In- crease has been much greater. A recerit pamphlet lssued by the bureau relating to packing for export and for inland trans- portation has aroused such interest that many thousands of coples have been cir- culated and requests for it sull come in at the rate of fifteen or twenty a day, the last year is g.von, indicating the, wide extent to which calls ars made upon the bureau for Informatlon, The “Forelzn Trade Opportuniiles,” through which busi- ness concerns are made acquainted with opportunities offered In forelgn countries tor ‘the sale of American products, has Brown to such an extent that nearly 10,00 letters were written In that 'branch of the bureau’'s Work last year, Many valuable ll‘nnlr & have been awarded to American |tion of these trade opportunities. This has |an effect of increasing the exports manufactures. Those ready for consump- tion amounted to ¥ per shipments abroad last year. Trade Directory.

The list is extensively used now, but the bureau has not a sufficient force to copy all of the names requested, and it is hoped that congress will authorize the publication of the books and its distribution under such regulations as the department may pre- scribe. Attention is called to the efforts of for- elgn governments to extend trade in & manner similar to that of the bureau of manufactures. As a result of the limited appropriations the bureau {s unable to do anything like as much as gould be done it 1t had sufficlent moriey to work with. Mention is made of the work of tlie British government and also of the work of some | ofher governments: in ‘this line. The Brit. |1sh office sends out commercial attaches |and’ trade commissioners and has trade | correspondents in various parts of the | world. The commercial attaches and con- | sular officers are required to visit the chiet | manutaoturing and commercial centers of | the United Kingdom from time to time, In | order to become better acquainted with the | kind of Information which it is desirable |to futnish for the benefit of the British trade. It ls recommended that some simi- lar method be followed In the 'United States. Experts Kept Rusy. clal information from the Philippine islands, Hawail, Alaska and Porto Rico, No reports come from these possessions, although Information ls often requested by manufacturers and others. Special mention is ade of the effective work done through ! special agents who report on trade conditions, etc. These agents visit all parts of the world and supply information not otherwise obtain- able. Their usefulness, it s stated, would be turther enhanced if provision were made by which they could spend a part of their time, when in this country, iwith the commerclal organizations and manufacturing assoclations, not only to give information, but to secure sugges- tions useful in investigations conducted abroad. . In Tarit! Division. The work of the tariff division is con- stantly increasing and the demands for Information multiply rapidly, although the appropriation for this work Is very lm- ited. It is recommended that provision be made for a larger force in this division 50 as to translate promptly forelgn tariffs and provide for their distribution among business men in the United States. During the last year reports of the tarift division were published covering forty-nine coun- tries and dependencies More than inquiries were received gard to the tarltf rates of forelgn coun- |itries to which goods are shipped in contact | 18 much larger than formerly, The annu roport, known as the “Commerclal Relat tions," 1s delayed by the tardiness of some of the consuls. To prevent the long delay in the issue of the annual consular reports, in 1907 they were printed in pamphlet form by’ countrles. This enabled the bureau to issue the reports from any country very soon after they were received. But by, holding them for an annual pu»ucmpj they are all delayed for a year. It & recommended that the method of printing those reports by countries be permanently adopted. The circulstion of Dafly Consular and Trade Repopts has increased so rapldiy that the !ufinumbfir authorized by law iy now being pfinted and hundreds of names have been cut off from the mailing Ilist {norder to substitute those of manufac- turers asking for the reports. Even then only a small percentage of the manufac- turers of the United States can be accom- modated. | Etfective work has been 'done In the way of cireulating “Confidential Circulars,” relating to special business opportunities offered In forelgn markets. Many foreign | contracts have resulted from the Informa- tion conveyed in thege officlal circulars and bulletins.
