New YORK, Nav 8, lS4S.

NEW 1ohk, May Q, 1910.
The import of goods continues to be upon
the most extended scale, while our exports
are moderate, and indeed small. Our Cotton
is going forward al greatly reduced rates. AS
illustrating this, it may be said that in the
New York market, Cotton, which was on the
18Th OF September sold at l2ial2s, now sells
Tor 81 cents the pound. In the same time
sterling bills have risen from "A premium 10
l04, and this in face OF reduced rate OF
treights. Ii this is not enough to explain the
drain OF specie and the flow OF commercial
paper from our shores, let it be ieme mbered
that our exports OF grain are nominal. and
that OF provisions moderate. A less strin-
gent money market cannot be reasonably
looked for until the legislation OF the country
is changed, and such measures adopted as will
keep out the food OF foreign goods for which
we cannot pay, unless al sacrifice not only
OF home labor, but OF our money.

LATER FROM YUCATAN.-The New
York Herald is in receipt OF files of the Meri-
da La Patria. mp to the l4th nit The Indian
troubles are still continuing, and the leading
articles of La Patria are all devoted to the in
spiriting of the Yucatecos to do their best to
withstand the savage assaults OF the ferocious
Indians The hopes of their government seem
TO be all centered on the assistance ct the
United States, and they are anxious TO annex
themselves TO US. The calling OF an extraor-
binary Congress to make direct offer to the
government al Washington, is recommend

The English have sent from Belize, Hondu-

Two Spanish men-of-war were at Sisa. ha
wing received on board, on their passage from
Havana, at Rio Lagartoes, about 900 poor
objects, men, women and children, driven
from their homes by the Indians. The dis
tress in this region is truly horrible; thousands
wandering on the beach and through the
streets OF Sisal, most of them not half clothed,
and no money or provisions to stay their hun
ger.

JueaED! It appears from the Caledonian that
sundry persons in New Hampshire, hostile to
the Possumpsic Railroad Co., recently failed in
an attempt TO get the ~ II. Courts to enjoin that
company against filling up sundry curves in Con-
necticut river and now they have commenced
suits against The Directors Of the Passumpsic
road, and as fas, as they catch them on the New
Hampshire side, these gentlemen are clapped
into Jail Mr.. Keyef of Ncwbury has thus been
compmented, though released on bail. We
know nothing of the merits of this controversy,
further than the account Of the Caedonian. Ac-
cording to that, the New Hampshire people are
doing very poor business in miserable way.
