there is a sense of modernity emerging, which sullivan is probably the key figure. all of it part of an and expanding chicago, which in 1893 will host the world's fair, which we will talk about in a later lecture. now mostly vanished america is connected by railways with large commercial centers on the east coast, then outposts like chicago and increasingly st. louis which becomes the fourth-largest city in the country by 1900. so it is a whole urban structure that is not at all similar to the united states today, but one that is very much sort of welcoming loss of european immigrants moving into the city's who then begin -- cities who then begin to work in those skyscrapers and transform them. you can see from 1900, how all that starts to change. things we will be talking about later in the course. that some of these cities, new york and chicago, philadelphia to some extent remain major , cities even down to the present. others like st. louis and baltimore gradually drop out of the top 10 of these listings and are replaced eventually by cities in the south and west

courtney reagan with that news let's get back to brian sullivan in washington. he just spoke to rick perry. brian. >> yeah, we did. that's why i wanted to bomb back in on your show. thank you very much. here's the thing department of energy secretary rick perry coming out of a meeting, racing into another meeting, gave cnbc a couple minutes. i asked him about the iran sanctions, the news u.s. is going to push our allies to buy zero oil from iran he said he wouldn't comment directly on that that's coming from the state department he's the energy department however, what he did say is he believes the saudis may be able to produce more oil than perhaps the market thought coming out of the opec meeting there were headlines rick perry was unhappy with opec. he said i wasn't unhappy with opec basically, i think the saudis can maybe produce more or will produce more oil than the market expects. remember, guys, the opec meeting, they didn't come out and say x number of barrels. they said a percentage of their expected cut so perry was confident, basically, that the saud

julia manchester, reporting for the hill and sean sullivan, congressional reporter for "the washingtonthank you for being with us here on this day. let me start with you, julia, first. i think the headline if you went to bed early yesterday and then woke up this morning was, we had some sort of piece of paper, a communique, traditionally coming in from the g7 meetings, right, where they all agree on one, two or three different things. we heard that the united states and the president was going to sign on that. then we woke up and found out something else. julia? >> it's been bizarre up to this point. the president was going to sign the communique with jus tun trudeau. but then the president tweeted accusing justin trudeau essentially lying to say he made false statements at the press conference and the canadian prime minister's spokesesman said what he's been saying all along. so it's a very bizarre turn of events to see a sitting u.s. president to accuse the canadian prime minister, one of our closest friends and allies, of lying. so definitely an interesting turn of events. >> sean,

and to that meeting, again, secretary sullivan was quite clear about crimea. you know president trump said, well, perhaps russia should have crimea. after all, they've done all this, et cetera, and russia should be readmitted to the g-8. well, sullivan says that we will not surrender our principles, that we believe crimea is part of a democratic and independent and free ukraine. so we'll see which side wins. >> yeah. president trump or, it seems, the rest of the government? do you think there needs to be an agenda for the meeting? john bolton says there is. do you think there needs to be an agenda or just sitting down is worth it? >> i bet there is an agenda. the question is how successful it will be. you've seen a state department reporting and others that there is some kind of quid pro quo that president trump wants to carve out with president putin over syria. whether or not that's workable, manageable, we'll have to see. but also beyond that, obviously president trump is a believer in the meeting principle of foreign policy. he did it with kim jong-un. we

brian sullivan is in vienna tonight. >> opec did what president trump wanted it to do but likely didn't get the result he was looking for. trump tweeting today hopell ope ncrease output substantially. need to keep prices down. the group did agree to increase output by as muchs one million barrel az day, but oil prices rose instead. oil analysts says it's because the actual increase will be lese thaneadline suggests. >> it's going to be less than that because ty've already been in some of the countries have already been producing more than agreed. the increase would be fractional. >> the way they made the move may have contrpruted to the e jump. instead of coming out and saying it was raising output by a specific number of barrels, opec hastead is real estate lying on a formula t allows its 14 member nations plus ten others to back offf earlier agreed to cuts. that's only a win for those countries who are able to pull u pump me oil. some, like venezuela why and mexico, are facing big, long-term drops in output. >> there are going to be winners and losers. ere are going to be some guys th

brian sullivan is at the world gas conference in washington. >> reporter: oil may get the headlines, but natural gas is shaking up the geolitical energy game even more than its crude cousin. in just the past fewears united states has become a gas powerhouse, so for the first time in more than 30 years the world gas conference is taking place in america. energy secretary rick perry spoke at the event and highlighted america's gas boom. >> we will set a record this year for dry natural gas production with an average of 81.2 billion cubic feet per day. and we' break tha record next year. >> reporter: we're now producing so much gas that america is now exporter for the first time ever. the international energy agency believes that liquified natural gas from the u.s. willurge om 4% global market share now to more than 20% in just five years. >>e next five years about 45%, almost half of the global gas produesion growth c from the united states. >> reporter: that's good news for companies likeominion resources w echort american liquified gas around the world but it could also puts on colli

later in the programme i'll be speaking to june 0'sullivan from london early years foundation — who willact sugar has on nursery children and ways in which nurseries can tackle obesity in toddlers. the health secretaryjeremy hunt has also been talking about brexit and described the warnings by airbus about uncertainty as "completely inappropriate. " earlier this week, airbus warned it could pull out of the uk if the country exits the single market and customs union, with no transition deal. speaking on the andrew marr show, mr hunt said the government had to "stand firm" and "ignore siren voices." ijust i just thought it was completely inappropriate for businesses to make, to be making these kinds of threats for one simple reason — we are in an absolutely critical moment in the brexit discussions and what that means is that we need to get behind theresa may, to deliver the best possible brexit, a clean brexit and what businesses want and i was in business for 14 years, they want clarity and the more that we undermine theresa may, the more likely we are to end up with a fudge, which will

sullivan: i want to thank, mr. president, my colleague, senator murkowski from the great state of alaska, our great state, talking about someone we really care about but someone who is going to do really important things for the entire country. for the entire country. you know, senator murkowski talked about tara sweeney's background. when she held -- when we had the confirmation hearing in indian affairs, i had the honor of introducing her and she did fantastic in that hearing. republicans, democrats all agreed. and when you look at her background, she's a leader. she is a leader. you can read her resume. you can see all the things that this young woman, relatively young woman has accomplished. senator murkowski mentioned some. she was, for example, the cochair of the alaska federation of natives. that's an elective position in alaska. almost 20% of our population are alaska natives. she was one of the youngest cochairs ever in that incredibly important organization. she was the chair of the arctic economic conf

tradeget a look at the tensions by bringing in bloomberg washington reporter greg sullivan. , presidentas decided on a less confrontational approach. 'what exactly is the administration's approach and is there consensus? greg: the white house announced what is seen as a less confrontational approach to china. aey are going to utilize committee that scrutinizes investment into u.s. companies that could be a potential u.s. national security threat. was a less confrontational move them what was originally reported which was the use of an emergency law. course, the trade watchers seem to be a little more in a itotiating stance here, but is unclear whether trump himself is softening his approach as he is said to still be focused on china. the white house has before accused china of ip theft and technology theft, but they did not single out china in this statement. there are two bills going through committee and those would expand the committee's role so that seems to be the approach. win for more free trade dove members of the administration? greg: it does seem to be there position winning o
