MINORS COLTS VS.. WARREN ACADEMY.
Last Monday morning Manager
Minor and his colts boarded the 40
train for Warren, H., where they
were billed to play game with the
Warren Academy eleven. 1t was
hotly contested game on the part of
the Warren officials, who finally sue
ceeded in scraping up points Tor
their team. The battle commenced
with kickoff by Mineral Point,
who secured the ball and scored
touchdown in three minutes on
criss-cross between Quirk and Bam-
brough. The only scoring done
thereafter was questionable salty
made by Warren. Our boys, after
securing their touchdown, prettily
kicked the goal, so the score stood at
end of the second half 6 to 2 in fa-
vor of the colts.
Manager Minor, who acted in the
capacity of referee, is very hoarse,
owing to the fact that he was obliged
10 scream to make himself heard
above the war-whoops of the sup
porters of the Academy eleven. But
from all reports be is lucky to get
home with no more serious injury,
as we understand that some OF the
sports t?) Of Warren We're going to
mob our manager, when, if they
knew the kind hearted, whole souled
fellow that he is. we are sure they
would have treated him with more
respect and given him their hands
of fellowship. But we carry the col
ors and by doing so have regalned
our former reputation.

game for Mineral Point: Trevillian

EXPORT RECORDS BROKEN.
High Mark I'm Trade Is Reached Dur
ing the Year.


Washington, July 16.-The monthly
statement of the exports and imports
OF the United States, issued by the bu-
reau of statistics, makes the remark
able showing that never before in the
history of the country have the exports
of merchandise, which include prac-
tically all the exports except gold and
silver, reached so high figure as dur
ing the fiscal year ended June 30, 1897,
nor has the excess of exports over inn
ports ever been so large. The only time
these figures were approached was in
1892, when the United States was max
ing heavy shipments of grain to feed
Europe after series of deficient har-
vests. The statement of 1897, with COM
PARSONS, is as follows:
Exports of domestic merchandise, s., O32,-
99S,SS0: increase over 1896, about Sic, 900 900;
total exports of domestic and foreign mer-
chandise, 81, ,9S791 as compared with
$685., ,93S for 1896. The total imports of
merchandise during the fiscal year just
closed amounted to 1854 1905, of which
1881 1892, COS was free of duty. The total i'm
ports were about SIS, 900 less than last
year, and the excess of exports over inn
ports for the year was 1921, 613,1 1856 This is
an excess of about $1S5, O0O,O 900 over last
year and an excess of about 1923, 900 900 over
any previous year.

weary and troubled. The outlook for
final agreement was said to be at
great distance.

the tariff bill Friday was to the effect
that the representatives of the two
houses are still at odds on the sugar
schedule, and that while there are still
many matters of minor importance I'M
determined, the sugar question is the
only obstacle in the way of speedy set
Element.
The house on Friday agreed to the
partial conference report on the gen
eral deficiency bill and then concurred
in the senate amendment fixing the linn
it of cost of armor plate for the three
