vtsor usual in support of a misleading

vigor usual in support of misleading
proposition.
makes clear the misleading character Of
the statement as to the trade relations be-
tween the two countries.
The apparent balance of trade against
however. is arrived at by adding to the
value of the imports to this country from
Hawaii the value plus the duty which
would be collected. If this is subtracted
1hurston's figures, reduced to $4S37I. .1194.
He claims that this balance in favor of
Hawaii Is only apparent, since it does not
accrue to Hawaii, but goes, in fact, to the
stimulation of American trade and into the
business and trade of Americans.
Stimulated American Trade.
There are he says, many ways in
which the treaty has stimulated American
trade anl enriched American citizens
records.
He thus enumerates how the forty-eight
millions aud more actually goes to Ameri-
cans: e.
Freights-For example. American shipping
has earned during the period of the treaty,
the SUM of s14 1S2. COS: and in the inter-
island trade the further sum Of 81 ,912, 1O2.
mmissions-Amertcan commission mer-
chants have received commissions on the
sale of island produce the sum of 81, 464, :,
253. hipbuildius-Amercan ship yards
have built vessels for the Hawaiian for
egn and inter-island trade, the profit on
which has amounted to $466,9 Insurance
American insurance companies have col
lected premiums on lives, property and
freights to the amount of s3,S47, 1876. Sugar
proiits-American citizens have made
profits from sugar raised in the islands
amounting to s20,S61 $50.
Mercantile profits.-Es timatng the profits
maze by American merchants on goods
sold to Hawaii at only ~ per cent, they
have received as profits thereon tha sum of
S6,5l7,4ii. Total profits made by United
States and its citizens. by reason of the
treaty, which do not appear by the custom
house records, $52 251 1856. From this
amount deduct he above apparent balance
of trade against the United States, s'S,377,-
794 And we find that instead of the bal
ance being against the United States, It is
in It's favor TO the amount of S., ,S736O2.

DEAR SIR:-The mail was rob-
bed this afternoon about 4:3O p. M.
up Steamboat creek, at the Big
Corduroy, by one man. He took
all the registered mail and letters
on the incoming mail to Warren.
It is estimated that the robber got
away with at least $4,000. A
sheriff's posse Of eight men is out
at this writing; but it is raining
hard and doubtful if they will
catch him tonight. He had only
about one hour the start of the
posse. He wore a grain sack for
a mask and one on each foot up
to above his knees. He had q fire
by the road and no horse in sight,
but was armed with a Winchester
rifle and made the mail carrier cut
the sack.
It is known that the mail con-
tanned money for different parties.
Patterson Bros. had about 81 900
from the sale Of their mine. Clag-
EFT & Grant had $3.50 for the
sale of the Knott mine. Henry
Grostein had 5000 on, with the
names of other parties to be heard
from.
| LATER.-All letters and all reg
istered mail was found at the scene
of the robbery, all opened. There
was only one registered package,
and that contained $50 for Henry
Grostein. No trace of the r0bber
yet. He told the mail carrier
that if he did not get anything
this time he would keep trying un'
til he did. g.
