MANUFACTURING ESTABLISHMENTS IN MEXICO IN 1893. 



I take from Les Finances des Etats- Unis Mexicains of Mr. Prosper 

 Gloner the following table, which purports to give the number of some 

 of the manufacturing establishments in Mexico during the year 1893. 

 Mr. Gloner acknowledges that his table is very deficient, as he says in 

 a note that appears at the foot of it that he failed to receive the data 

 from 117 districts in different states of Mexico, and that besides the 

 manufacturing establishments mentioned in his table there are in the 

 City of Mexico the following : (See page 236.) 



Carriages and wagons 1 1 



Wax works 28 



Agricultural implements 9 



Wall paper i 



Coloring substances 2 



Mineral and soda-waters 4 



Carriage varnishes 2 



Jewelry boxes, etc 9 



Mucilage and paste 1 1 



Card-board 6

NAVIGATION. 



The total number of vessels, both steamers and sailing vessels, 

 which arrived at and departed from Mexican ports during the year 

 1895, appears in the following statement. 



I also append a statement showing the number of passengers who 

 arrived in and departed from Mexico by sea and rail during the year 

 1895, mentioning both their nationality and the port of their arrival. 

 The number appears exceedingly small when compared with the very 

 large number coming from Europe to the United States ; but I feel sure 

 that before long we will have a large immigration.
