There is something of national i'm portance in the recent elections, especi- ally the outcome of the Chicago fight, as the Springfield Republican says 'What Chicago has experienced since November the whole country has in some degree experienced. There has been disappointment over the material effects of the November victory. There has been anger at the disposition of the new government at Washington to wrip it. self up in the cast-off rags of extreme tariff. There has been an impression with many people who do not study col

THE LARGEST CIRCULATION OF AMY no
INCREASE OF EXPORTS.
Annual Report of the Bureau of Stats
ties For Chief Ports.

Washington, Aug. 25.-The forthcom-
ing annual report of the Bureau of Sta
tistics will show the percentages of the
aggregate exports of the United States
for the fiscal year ending June 80 1897,
at seventy of the principal customs ports.
1t is shown that the exports from the
port of New York have fallen off from
1922 per cent of the whole in 1895, to
37.2 in 1897. Boston's exports were
9.41 per cent in 1896 and 9.60 in 1897.
New Orleans has made a gain from SAT
per cent in 1897 to 9.66 in 1897. Balti-
more also increased her exports from
7.52 per cent in 1896 to SIS per cent
last year. This increase said to be due
to the large increase of the shipments in
corn. The exports from Philadelphia
increased from 1852 per cent in 1896 to
S15 per cent last year. This increase is
said to be due to the recent exceptionally
large shipments of wheat. There was
also an increase at San Francisco from
279 per cent in 1894 to 3.77 in 1897.
Galveston, Texas increased from 412
per cent in 1896 to 5.54 last year and

ington, increased from 07S per cent in

Norfolk and Portsmouth, Va. increas-
ed from OFT in 1896 to III last year.
Chicago increased from 0.15 per cent in
1896 to 0.22 per cent last year.
In the matter of imports in New York
shows falling off from 64.12 per cent.
of the whole imports of the United States
in 1896, to 62.S6 in 1897. Boston shows
an increase from 10.16 to 11.S0 per cent.
New Orleans increased from LA to
OF. Baltimore fell off from 1.73 to 1.49.
| Philadelphia increased from 500 to
go. San Francisco fell off from 5.41
to 400 Chicago fell off from 199 to
1.51 per cent.
| These figures represent the goods that
went through the several customs houses,
and do not take into account the locality
] from which the shipments were made.
Thus cargo of cattle shipped from Chi
cago by rail to New York and there en-
tered for export to Liverpool. would be
recorded as an export from New York.

Port Townsend, Wis, Aug. 25.-The
team ship Portland is due to arrive from
the mouth of the Yukon river tomorrow
and it is expected she will bring several
tons Of gold from the Klondyke gold
fields. Great excitement was caused last
night by the receipt of a message from
Toosh island that a vessel was passing
in and it was believed to be the Port
land. Three tugs left Immediately down
the straits to meet her. The Associated
Press tug, after steaming forty miles
spoke the steamer Willamette from
Dyea and Skaguay, which proved to be
the vessel reported at Toosh. The tug
will lie in the straits till the Portland
is sighted. Special lookouts have been
placed at every telegraph station on
either side of the straits and there is
little probability that she can slip by
without being sighted although weather
in the straits is thick and is likely to re-
main so in this season of the year. While
officials of the North American Traaspor-
tati0n and Trading Company look for the
Portland tomorrow they say it may be
three days yet before she puts in an APP
