wall between us and all other nations"
says the Chicago Inter Ocean. The
foreign commerce of the United States
was of the value of nearly two billions
of dollars during the twelve months
under review. The foreign commerce
for the month of March, 1892, was in
excess of that Of any corresponding
month in the history Of the nation.
For the twelve months it was greater
by $134, ,276, ,220 than for the corre-
spending twelve of the year lS90.91;
greater by $685., ,545, ,9SS than in the
year preceding that, and greater by
$3J 2,l25, 900 than in the year 1883.
Where now are the Democratic
prophecies of 1890 concerning di-
minution of commerce ION account Of
the TARIFF"
Nor is it due solely to the unusual
European demand for American grain
that this large increase is due. Grain
is exported, but there is wonderful
increase in our imports. For the
twelve months ending March 81, 1892,
our imports were worth $S37,05S, ,5S5,
which is near to one billion of dollars.
Our exports for the same period were
little more than one billion, being
exactly 81 l,O06, 6,2S4,506. The imports
were in excess of the corresponding
twelve months of 1901, during
which there was an unprecedented
rush of foreign goods brought IL to
avoid the suppositious "higher du-
ties" of the Mckinley bill. They
were greater by more than $7O,O0O,-
900 than in the corresponding twelve
month of lSS9-00.
Nor can it be said that the pur-
chasers of these imported goods paid
more 'tax" upon them in years that
antedated the Mckinley bill The
opposite of this is true. The value of
the goods that came in free Of duty
was $461, ,473, ,523; the value of those
that paid duty was $375,5S5,062. So
that more than 55 per cent of all the
goods imported were duty free. Dur
ing the last year of the old tariff the
value of the free goods imported was
but 81 per cent of the whole.
The deduction is plain. As nation
we have been sending more goods
abroad than formerly and have had a
larger cash balance due US from for |
elgn nations At the same time we
have been buying more goods from
abroad, though the increase of our
purchases has been far less than that
of our sales, but most of the goods
bought from abroad have been of
kind that we can not produce for our
selves. OF those that we can produce for
ourselves we have imported less than
formerly. To sum up. We have sold
more than formerly, we have bought
more American goods than formerly |
with cash that Europe has paid to US
for our exports, and we have bought
more tea, coffee and sugar than former
ly, and our purchases from foreign
have been less by $269, 1885,
92l than our sales to them.
The figures speak for themselves.
The Mckinley bill is working very
nicely at present. 1t does not need
reforming as yet.

home of Mr.. Sharp, seriously injuring
him and killing his wife. 1t also killed
Miss Boyd at the crossing of the Grand

property, but injured no one. A little
further on it cut swath 100 yards wide
through thickly settled farming dis
trict, wrecking buildings for distance OF
ten or twelve miles, and mangling many
horses. At the home of Alfred Daniel
his wife was fatally hurt, while he and
his baby were badly injured.

ST. PETERSBURG, May AT Wilma to-
day six Jews and Jewesses we're convicted
of numbering babies entrusted to their
care. and sentenced to penal servltude
from six to twenty years. In many in
stances the murders were committed
with the connlvance OF the mothers
of the little victims. The first clue
to 4he murderers was discovered
in April, 1890, when the bodies of six
small children were found in cesspool
of a wretched hovel IN Wilma. Further
searches led to the discovery of the re-
mains of sixty-five infants. Forty-fi five
men and women were arrested and $50
witnesses summoned. The dispatch does
not state whether all the prisoners we're
tried and only six convicted, but 1t is
only six were tried. The pris-
oners gained the colloquial name of san
gel makers"

America Is developing a new in
dustry in the manufacture of tin-plate,
since the passage Of the Mckinley
tariff bill, and this has caused the
Democracy to be violent in its denun-
citation of protection. 1t would suit
our friends, the enemy, if all clothing
worn by Americans was manufactured
in England, and our wage.earners
driven from the country, if they could
carry out their principles of free-trade.
England should feel very grateful for
the earnest friends she has in the
United States.

The River and Harbor Bill.

WASHINGTON, May 5.-The house. after
routine business, went into committee of
the whole on the river and harbor bill.
Holman attacked the bill as being extrav-
agant. He said it not only appropriated
more than $21 100000, but authorized
contracts which would make the govern
ment liable for $26, 900, 900 more. Whit
ing, of Michigan, thought the proposition
to secure 21foot channel from Duluth
to Buffalo premature and ill-advised.
Breckenridge, of Kentucky, also attacked
the bill, while Lockwood favored Deep
waterway channel, as also did Catchings,
of Mississippi. The general debaet being
concluded, the bill was considered under
the five>minuted rnle. Without dispos-
ing of it the committee rose and the
house adjourned.

Business Part of Buckley Burned.

BUCKLEY, Wash, May 5.-The busi-
ness part of East Main street was burned
to the ground this evening, between the
hours of and o'clock. A bed of ashes
and smouldering fire stretches from the
right of-way to Cottage avenue. The
fire Is attributed to sparks from the mill
Of the White River Shingle Company,
located at the depot, which set fire to
the roof of the Buckley Lumber Com
pany's store. A light wind was blow
Ing, which made the whole street on the
south and business part an easy victim,

Preparing for Trouble.

KINGF1sHER, o. T., May 3.-Governor
Seay regards the situation caused by the
ugly attitude of the Cheyenne Indians to-
wards tee settlers in the newly opened
lands, sufficiently perilous to demand his
presence on the scene. He passed by
here to-day en- route there. A company
of United States troops will follow him
tomorrow. White Shield, the Cheyenne
chief, is the leader of the rebellious reds.
Another cause for alarm is the fact that a
new town is being built on the site of the
burial grounds Of the Indians killed in
the battle with General Custer in 1868.
The Indians regard the building of town
there as sacrilege, and threaten to burn
out and massacre the inhabitants.

Lawrence Dwyer Whirled Around a
Shat5 in the g., F. and w. Shops.
Lawrence Dryer, machinist, met ter
rible accident in the Savannah Florida and
Western railway shops yesterday afterno On,
which may cost him his lite. While oiling a
piece of machinery his foot caught in belt
ing around big wheel and he was hurled
upward with frightful velocity and thrown
several feet across the floor.
The other workmen ran TO where Dwyer
had fallen, expecting to find him mangIed
corpse, but he had not been revolved en-
tirely around the wheel, and although un-
conscious and bleeding, be had escaped
death. The surgeon of the company was
summoned at once, and upon examination
found that one Of Dwyer's legs had been
broken, his head crushed on one side and
his body severely bruised. Dwyer's injuries
were temporarily dressed. after whiol he
was taken to his home at 1917 East Broad
street and given proper medical attention.
At late hour last night the young mans
condition was serious. just how the acct
dent occurred cannot yet be explained, bu {
it is thought that Dryer in leaning over to
oil the machinery sought to rest his foot
upon the base and instead placed it in the
betting.
