5 Believing it would be of interest to ascertain the trade of the 

 United Kingdom and of the United States as well as that of Canada 

 with the world at large in minerals and metallurgical products, your 

 Committee have prepared two sets of tables with this in view. 



The first set " B " take the exports and imports for the years 1881 

 to 1884 inclusive. They shew that on the average the values of 

 exports were, from 



Great Britain . $228,908,727 



The United States.. . 72,500,654 



Canada 3,338,231 



and that the values of imports were, to 



Great Britain 98,801,964 



The United States 72,887,652 



Canada 24,349,898 



The second table " C " treats more fully with the detail and takes 

 into consideration only the crude metallurgical products.
