A THEORY And THE FACTS.

For weeks il has been expected that some
Democratic journal trusting to false theories
and net looking into facts at all, would cx-
plain the decrease of exports from this country
as due to the new tariff, on the ground that it
compcls other countries with which we deal
most largely to purchase elsewhere the things
they require THE Boston Globcv dstin-
gushes itself by making this mistake in ad-
vance of competitors, and in delightfully."- cx-
plict way:
just In proportion these foreign peoples de-
crease tbe,r purchases from they Increase their
purchases from other sources, and they sell their
GOOD, naturally where they buy our interests are
simply suffering from that DISCRIMINATING unncgl-
bory policy which inevitably drives away trade.
either from an individual or II nation. All attempts
T., disguise This fact ridiculously thin.
This is either true or it is not, and the official
reports Of other countries will settle the ques-
ton We trade most with Great Britain. Our
exports have decreased particularly in wheat,
cotton. meats and cattle. Let us see whether
it is true that this is because Just in proper
ton as the British people decrease their pur-
chases from us they increase their purchases
from other sources"
beginning with cotton, in four months end
ing with April Great Britain imported from the
United States much less than in the same
months last wear. But from all other coun-
tries Great Britain imported 1,123,SSO cwt.,

increase in purchases from other sources"

THE NICARAG UAN REVOLUTTON.

The official advices received at the State
Department from its representatives in Mica
iagua confirm the opinion expressed in these
columns fortnight ago that the United States
Navy would have little to do on either sea-
board The commander of the Atlanta sent
a force of marines ashore at Greytown as soon
as the ship anchored off the bar, but it was
promptly withdrawn at the request of the
American Consul. The Nicaragua Canal Com
pany's property was not in danger at that port.
Neither Sacaza's officials nor the revolutionary
party could have any possible motive for inter
ference with the work of the dredges in the
canal cut or with the extension Of the break
water. Greytown is small, sleepy town with
out disordery clements of population, and it
lies outside the circle of military operations on
the west coast. The only change which will
be wrought in its fortunes by the success OF
the revolutionists is the appointment of new
Governor. As it is free port. the control OF

The climax in the Briggs case is close at
hand An Unsuccessful effort was made to
reach vote last evening. The verdict OF the
Assembly WILL however, be arrived at early
to-day, and no one in the least familiar with
the case can doubt what it will be. The
doubtful thing is the penalty which will follow
the declaration that the much-talked-Of pro-
fessor was guilty of heresy in the sentiments he
uttered in his inaugural address. The chlei
matter of popular interest in yesterdays pro-
ceedings was the closing part of DR.. Briggs

admissions to the Worlds Fair. Nobody seems

and Director of Works Burnham insist that
there were 100000. 4 guess regarding the
attendance yesterday places it in the neigh
borhood of 100000. If this is approximately
correct, it would seem to be much smaller than
the first holiday since the Fair opened should
have brought forth.
