900, 900. Germany took $4,000, 900;
France, 500, 600, 600; Belgium, $50, 'ooo'
Austria only 81 COCOON; Denmark, so,-
600, 600; Italy, l6,0O0,O0O; The Nether-
lands, S23, 900, 900; Russia, $S,ooo, ooo;
Spain, $40, 600, 900; Sweden and Norway,
81, 600, 900, and Portugal, so,0OO,ooo.
Japan is fast taking place among the
lending commercial nations. Ten years
ago tho japanese imported only S37 ,O0O,-
600, now Sl20, 900, 900. Ten years ago they
exported s4S, 900, 900, now $l35,OO0,O 600.
They have nearly trebled their foreign
trade, Notwithstanding the disturbance OF
the war with China.
China has not done so badly either. She
has in ten years increased her imports
from Ss7, 900, 900 TO sl62,0o0,0OO, and her
exports from S77 100000 To sl2s, ,ooo, 600.
Three of the richest countries In the
world buy more than they sell, Inc ioi-
lowing figures give, in round numbers, the
imports and exports of England, France
and Germany according to the latest years
statistics:
Imports. Exports.
England ..........s2,2O ,2Oi 10000 81, 1886 100000
France ............. ,20OOO,Oo 6ol,OO,Uo
Germany. ............ ,lOl,OVO,0OO s'l'OVo'O0
The excess Of imports over exports In
these three nations is, therefore, the enor-
nous sum of 81, ,l67, 900, 900 year What
vast sums they must have loaned or Invest
ed in their colonies and other countries!
Striking Industrial Facts.
In England the manufacturers and ex-
porters complain that the United States
buys so little of them. This Is their story:
"We buy each year of the United States
from $500, 600, 600 to $3.50, 900, 900 worth of
produce. The United States buys OF US
only to the extent of 500, 000, 900, and even
this amount it Is trying to cut down
by new tariff bill" Ii is a fact that Eng
lands purchases OF American produce In
crease year after year, while our purchases
of English wares show a tendency 20
diminution.
One striking industrial difference be-
tween the United States and Great Britain
Is that we sold last year 1873, 900, 900 worth
Of breadstuffs. while England had to buy
breadstuffs TO the amount of 1857, 900, 900.
Again we sold To the remainder OF the
world last year provisions to the value of
Sl55, 900, 900, while Great Britain had to
import provisions to the amount Of S277,-
600, 600
1t is n theory of economic writer's that
the greatness of people can be judged by
the quantity of coal burned. II this be
true test. the United States Is now the

the figures of the coal consumption OF the
four great Industrial nations in millions
of tons:

The Chicago Inter Ocean recalling Its
Greek history points out that when Nerxes
a37s years ago moved down through
Macedonia around Mount Olympus and
through Elassona and I.arissa 20 Invade
Greece he met no opposition in the noun
tain passes, now the scene OF furious
conflict. 1t is said that his army was the
largest ever assembled, numbering with
those ON the fleet over 1000, 600 men.
Threatened by land aud sea by these
tremendous forces Greece was not over
whelmed. The Greeks did not yield and in
the end the Persians were defeated. The
fighting was not at the mountain passes
not in Thessaly, but farther south, where
great battles were fought and great fleets
destroyed. Should the Turks force their
way into the plains of Thessaly they may
find their Thcrmopylae and thoir Plataea
beyond. II they are driven from the
passes the Greeks will probably fight as
their forefathers fought centuries ago.

enthusiasm prevailed in the Greek colony
on Roosevelt and Madison streets this
morning. A great crowd surged about
tie Parthenon restaurant, the head
quarters of the Greek patriots. The place
was filed all night with Greeks writing
letters to friends announcing their de-
parturc for the seat of war. The latest
cable dispatches were listened To with tho
kyenest interest and every item favorable
10 the CAUSE of the Hellcnes was received
w tn shrieks of delight A brass band
entered the restaurant early in the morn
ing and added melody TO the din. Long
live the war; burst from a thousand
lusty Greek throats, as the flag of the
Helienes was unfurled. 1t seemed u
~'gnal, for all sides began To pour in, big,

T. For the most part they carried in their
h I DIS two small flags, one Greek and tl .
other American. Four hundred and fifty
Greeks leave for the Fatherland today.

Nothing so unsettlos business as the pen

manufacturer is unable to ontcr intelli-

Thus there can he no activity in the
