that there were still many contingent

The day was spent in considering
minor details OF the bill which have been

bic showing that never before In the his
tory of the country has the exports OF
merchandise, which includes practically
all the exports except gold and silver,
reached 80 high q figure as during the
fiscal year ending June 30. 1897. nor has
the excess OF exports over imports ever
been so large. The only time these flg-
ures were approached was In 1892, when
the United States was making heavy
shipments OF grain TO feed Europe's suf-
fering from series Of deficient hArvests

less than last year, and the excess OF ex-
ports over imports for the year was $751;
1886.
This was an excess of about S1S5, 200, 900
over last year and an excess of about
;2S,000,OO0 over any previous year.
The figures for June also show an i'm
portant gain. The domestic exports OF
merchandise during that month amount-
ed to {72,S66,s $50, q gain over June, 1896, OF
SS,0OO,OOO. The imports for June amount
to Ssi,S26.110 as compared with $50, ,163,-
74O for June. 1896. The exports of gold,

The more serious papers deal with the
situation editorially. The Globe In an
article headed Yankee fnsoience," says:
