Commenting on the report OF the Bureau
OF Statistics for the last fiscal year the New
York EreniHg Post in It's financial article of
yesterdav says that a great deal OF the croak-
ing about the dulness of the foreign trade
since the panic has been unwarranted. For
Instance, the average yearly imports for the
two years since the panic have been
e5si,90O,O C0, and the exports specie includedl
S62s eco. Taking the 1--WE years next pre-
ceiling the panic back to the fiscal year
1cts-9) tie average yearly imports were
sJi9,6eo,CtO. and the average yearly exports
Si9S SEQ goo. This shows that the average inn
ports for the past two years were SIS 900 900
above tie average for the five years prece-
ding the panic. and that the exports have
averaged S135 400 GOO per year during the last
two years more than they did in the five fis-
cal years preceding the panic. The average
yearly foreign trade of the country has been
ten per cent larger since the panic than it
was In the five years next preceding the
panic The popular impression has been not
only that the foreign trade since the panic
has been Improbable, but much less in vol
ume than for many years before the panic
That IL has not been as profitable as in for
mer years the Post believes is true, but to a
much less extent than is commonly under
stood.

kalakua, and "a score of other great people
can tell YOU, II they are so minded. For in
stance, The disgTaceful pother made over the
hotel bill for entertaining the former on the
occasion Of recent visit 10 Boston has had
complete counterpart in the publicity
given 10 the items entering into the account
for entertaining the latter by the authorities
of New York when he visited that city last
spring, and the wrangling over them has
served 10 place both gentlemen in a very I'M
pleasant attitude before the public. 1t is
likely that there was an attempt at petty
swindling ON the part of the hotel folks and
sub committees in each case, but this does
not excuse the airing of the whole
thing in the newspapers "a practice
that must go far toward lettering dis
tinguished people in the future from
accepting the sO-called hospitality of any
city or municipal corporation. Such SQUAD
bles should be settled in private. Any other
course is nj once disgraceful 10 the hos: and
an insult to the guest. If the entertainer
cannot pay the bill he had better not under
take the role, but allow travelling lions to
hunt their own quarters, and settle their
OWL scores in their own way.

quite certain, that the late Treasury robbers
have been caught, the circumstance will be
quite an achievement for our city detective

justly so. Still, the main thing with the
public is, that the criminals are in limbo
Upon this result the whole country, not less
