PARTIAL TO UNITED STATES.
llritlsh Minister at Havana Says Cuba's
Trade Is Gradually Drifting to
This Country.
London, Sept. C. The report of the
British minister at Havana, Mr. Car
den, on the trade of Cuba for 1902,
was issued to-day. Ho says: "Tho
prospect of the reciprocity convention
between Cuba and the United States
being eventually sanctioned by con
gress has not fnjled to affect British
trade by deterring Cuban merchants
from accepting proposals to open up
business relations with British manu
facturers. There can be no doubt that
with or without tho reciprocity con
vention, British merchants have to be
stir themselves if they wish to retain
their present share of Cuban trade.
Combination alone is likely to pr.ove
effective in maintaining our commer
cial position in this part of the con
tinent." Reviewing Cuban trade, Mr. Carden
says: "It is encouraging to note the
steady increase in vegetables for ex
port and the development of Cuba's re
sources, other than tobacco and sugar."
