These accounts must, of necessity, ap-
pear in each report issued from this
Office, as outgoing shipments and in
coming payments for same are al
most daily occurrences. Therefore, it
is not to be assumed that these per-
sonal accounts wholly represent
a contraction off,. worthless debts,
or a wanton disregard of the law
in the contraction of any class
of debts. But I am plainly with
in the pale of the law in the
opening of these particular accounts,
and I think the correctness of my po-
sition will lodge itself in the minds of
your honorable board at first thought,
whenI state that these accounts are
absolutely necessary to proper and
satisfactory management of the rapid
ly increasing business of this institu-

Holl this morning, and they left on a
train for New York this afternoon.
Another vessel, three .masted schoo-
ner, picked up rs of the survivors, and
it is supposed put back with them to
Delaware breakwater. The men would
say but little. There were three Amer
leans among those at Woods Holl, the
others being Spaniards. They say that
thousands Of dollars in money went
down with those who were drowned
and in the private chests in the steam
er.
The only member Of the crew Of the
Hawkins that was picked up by the
Beebe was the mate, Crowley. He de-
clared that all the men were saved,
and that not a man was even injured
When the Beebe picked the men up,
they were in double-end whale boats
which could live in any sea. The
other schooner were in the vicinity at

Alaska PAYS Its Way.

There are people who are fond Of
saying that the United States "has
spent more in trying to defend the
right to control the seal fisheries than
Alaska has been worth to it. A docu-
ment just now sent by the president
TO Congress shows that the govern
ment has derived, since 1876, from
tho seal fisheries alone, S6,351, 96l,
and that there is a claim Of nearly q
million more outstanding. Including
all the expenditures of policing Bohr-
ing sea and for the support of the ma
tives, and for salaries, there has been
a net profit to the United States since
1876 on the seals alone of "a, 65S, S5S.
Since the Canadians began their at
tempts to break up these fisheries the
profits have vanished.
Aside from the seal fisheries, there
are other fisheries of great value. In
his annual report secretary Smith says
that "the salmon alone taken pre-
pared for the market by canning oil
otherwise gives an annual return OF
$4,000, 900" Gold mining has also
become OF great and increasing i'm
portance, and, according to these Off
cial documents, Alaska returns to the
people Of the United States in one
year now almost rs much as the cos
of it. The Manufacturer.

Cnltlrating ExtraYagance.

In Oldtown, Me-, there once lived a
unique character who was noted for
the particularly poor horses he kept
about him, Many a time, says the
Bangor Commercial, he would be seen
upon the road with an animal whose
condition would warrant the inter-
vention OF the society with a long
name.
One day he appeared upon the
street with nag that would hardly
serve for the crows, and was accosted
by a fellow townsman with ''That's a
pretty good looking horse you have
there. Uncle Simeon" eyes. " replied
the driver: 'I've decided there's no

have decided to have no more to dc
with them. paid 81 for this one

Cocoa And Chocolate.

For tie past fifty years the manu-
facture of chocolate and the prepare
ton of cocoa has been going on in
New York. There are now some
twenty-five factories aud firms en-.
gagged in the business. A prominent-
manufacturer said to a porter in re-
lation to this:
The reason why New York is the
center for the manufacture of the
various forms Of chocolate is because
both the cocoa bean and the sugar re-
quired in its manufacture are grown
this side Of the Atlantic, and are more
easily produced here than aboard.
There is also another reason why
the domestic chocolate is better than
the imported, and that is because we
make better quality Of goods than
they do on the other side.
The American manufacturers give
better values and work on a smaller
margin.
"One Of the reasons why many
chocolate manufacturers have had so
much success is because New York is
a seaport, and in some cases / know
Of cocoa beans being landed on the
j
dock near a mandatory in the morn
ing and turned out manufactured
goods on the following morning.
This merely illustrates to how fine
a point the business has been perfect
ed.
The same authority estimated that
the product of chocolate aud cocoa Of
New York manufacture was 5000, 0Ot
pounds a year, He made the predic
ton that it would not be long befor
this amount would be doubled. -Ney
