the field no feet action has ever equaled
the battle OF the Nile. Upon the for

experience demonstrated to be imposs-

the renewal OF men and supplies upon
which depended not only the proseeu-
ton OF the undertaking but even the
maintenance of the position already
achieved.
The influence OF the battle OF the
Nile was more far-reaching still; the
continent Of Europe became conyulsed
from end to end as soon as the news
was received. Elated by Bonaparte's
career OF victory in italy and by the
submission OF Austria to terms OF
peace. the French government had
entered upon a course OF arrogant ag-
gression toward other countries--of
which the unprovoked Egyptian expedi-
tion was only one example-ihat had
aroused the wrath OF all nations Even
the United States was forced from Its
attitude Of benevolent neutrality. which
had depended upon the tradition of the
war of Independence and the adoption
by France of republican institutions.
The general resentment In Europe
was, however. curbed by experience OF
the might OF the French revolutionary
movement and Of the French armies
when welded by a man like Bonararte
and there was wanting the demonstra-
ton of some power capable of impos-
ing an absolute check upon their future
progress. The battle of the Nile gave
such demonstration AS Nelson said.

boidened, as the permanence OF the con-
dition due to the battle became evident,
to pursue their military enterprise upon
a scale which brought the republic to
the brink Of ruin. from which II was
saved only by the unexpected and for
tuitous return OF Bonaparte and his ae-
cession to supreme power year later

The Chilly May.

1t IS twenty-s!x years ago that the
Bureau Of Mctcocology began 10 make
record Of the daily temperature OF each
month; in all tina. time no such pcrma-
nent chill is recorded for the month of
May as in 1897. For n parallel TO the
discomforts Of the last thirty days we
must depend upon the prolific memory
OF the oldest inhabitant. The> worst of
it is that June has begun as unpleas-
antly as May ended. The wintcrt though
not very severe one, began carly, ana
Chicago has passed from October to
June with very few days OF sunshine,
and with an unpleasant plcntitude of
raw and chilly days. though with COM
para;ively few really cold ones. The
unreasonable weather has a bad effect
upon trade, and the Northern fruit
growers arc complaining Of frost-killcd
strawberry crops. The transition TO
the heated term Is likely to be sudden.

Their Growth III the Matter or Expor.
I,uainGSs.
Baltimore Herald.)

"Fhc growth OF Southern scncoast CT
ties IN Importance as Gatcways OF our
foreign trade, particularly exports, has
naturally attracted attention.
SO marked has been the increase in
the volume of merchandise shipped to
foreign countries from ports south of
Baltimore that some anxiety has been
felt lest NIarylandS metropolis should
ere long stand in 4 very subordinate po-
sition, and all information upon the sub
jcct has been carefully examined to as
certain whether it bears out such a sup
position.
According to the figures furnished
by the Treasury Department, fears Of
Baltimore being forced into the rear
by the new born energy Of Southern
rivals are groundless. Apparently, we
are quite able to hold our own.
For the nine months ended March,
1897, the value Of our exports was $685.
G55,d5G. against Si9,36i ,O10 for the CORE
spending period of 1896, an increase Of
30 per cent This advance is only cX-
cccded by six other ports. the shipments
OF which with the exception OF Calves
ton, are far smaller. The exports OF
Norfolk and Portsmouth rose from s5,-
:O62G1 TO $l5,9539io, or 20OG6 per cent !;
those OF Pensacola. Fla, from 81, 567 $50
to S6,306, SS7, on 1i3.GG per cent; those OF
Newport News from 81. 42393S to ST.
1924, Of so per cent. Tampa, Fla,
gained 5l.S per cent. but her total for
1897 was only $606S29.
Wilmington's increase was from
$5,9l1 zig to $7,SS7,S92, or 33.1, nearly
eunalling Baltimorc's percentage, but
having a total smaller than our increase.
Galveston, Tex. went from So, G56, 12S to
SOD. ,0Gi, an increase Of G6.1 per cent
over 1896, and really takes the lead in
the matter OF volume.
The figures are interesting not only
because they show that Baltimore can

ESCAPE MADE EASY BY THE NEW
RAILWAY.
Report that Russian EXiles Will Now
BE Sent to Saghalen Island-Ob-
stace to Siberian Convict System

LONDON, Feb 12.-The building of
the Transsiberian Railway is causing
the complete reorganization of the
Russian convict system. The present
rules are that eXiled offenders shall be
sent to nearer or farther parts in ST.
IBERIA, according to the article of the
code under which they were convicted.
The appointed place of exile for light
er offenses is nearer European Russia
that for serious crimes. 1t is not very
difficult even now for offenders who
are courageous enough and provided
with means of support to make their
way secretly back to Europe or
abroad. Needful passports and dis
guises are usually procurable.
The real utility of the Siberian con-
Wet system has to depend upon the
physical difficulties of travelling vast
distances back to civilization. The ne.v
railway eliminates these obstacles.
1t is reported from Moscow that the
island of Saghalien will be the future
destination of Russian exiles. This
island already is used for the impris-
onment of criminals of the lowest
type.
