this product in the history of our com
merce. The quantity of the exports of
this product was 1907, 1908, 900 pounds,
and the largest out of the country in any
one fiscal year in the history of such ex-
ports.
There is a decrease in the value of ex-
ports of breadstuffs, but an increase in
the value OF exports of provisions of
1912, 1872 over such exports in 1890,
Notwithstanding the exports of provi-
sions for 1890 exceeded in value the ex-
ports in 1889 by the sum of $50, 142 O62.
The value of the exports of cattle,
sheep and hogs is somewhat less than
during 1890, when such exports were the
largest in the history of our commerce,
exceeding the exports of the year 1889
by $751; 73 388
The total value of the exports of the
five leading products, cotton, breadstutfs,
provisions dairy products, live cattle,
during 1891 was $588, Psi ,912, or $15, 263,
95l in excess OF the same exports in 1890.
IMPORTS UNDER THE NEW TARIFF.
The new tariff law has been in opera
ton since October 6, 1890 During the
nine months ending June 80 last, the
total value of the imports of merchan-
disc was $500, zoe, 005, as compared with
1898, 769, 905, during the corresponding
period of 1890, which shows an excess
for the nine months of 1891 of $34, 1885,
100.
If comparison be made in the two
corresponding periods of the values of
merchandise imported free of duty, it
will be found that during the first nine
months the new tariff law was in opera
ton there was decided increase in such
imports.
The value of the imports OF merchan-
disc admitted free of duty during the
nine months ending June 80, 1891, was
1926, 1868, 1865; the value of such imports
for the corresponding period of 1890 was
$208, 1888 1873. showing an increase in
favor of the nine months ending June
80, 1891, of $86, 1872, while for the
same period the value of imports of mer-
chandise paying duty was 1884 PAP $40,
as compared with $3.50, 786 032 for the
corresponding period of 1890, giving a
decrease in the value of merchandise
paying duty, imported during the last
nine months of the last fiscal year, of
500, SAB 692 From study of the tables,
it appears that during the first nine
months under the operation of the new
tariff, of the total value of merchandise
imported into this country, As per cent
came in free, while during the cores
ponding period of 1890, 349 per cent
was admitted free.-[ American Grocer.

1t needed printing, they concluded.
The other boy started to do the printing.
The hammer fell while he was thus en-
gagged and the gun was DISCHARGED.
Young Demers received the whole
charge in the bowels. Medical aid was
summoned, but nothing could be done
for him. The intestines were perfOr-

half an hour, all the time in the greatest
agony. 1t was clearly case of acct

inquest will be held.
