MICHAELs RETIRES.
The Greatest Bicyclist World Has Ever
 Known to Be Jockey

The Greatest Bicyclist World Has Ever
 Known to Be Jockey.
 St. Louis, Feb. 21.-The Post Dispatch to-day announces the retirement of Jimmy Michael, the "Welch rarebit, the greatest rider the field of bicycling has ever known. The Post Dispatch has learned that Michaels' trip to New York Is for the sole purpose of entering the employment of Phil Dwyer as a jockey and riding his horses this sea- son. Some time ago a rumor was afloat that Dwyer had offered Michaels a handsome salary to quit the bicycle track for the race track, but the idea of Michaels taking any such step was pronounced ridiculous. It appears however, that all along Michaels was considering the proposition and now he has announced to his nearest friends that he Is out of the bicycle game for good to accept the offer made him by Phil Dwyer.

NEW HAVEN vs. wAL11NaFoRD

Exciting Polo Game in the Borough
 Town Last Night-New Haven Team
 Too Much for the Blackbirds-The
 Score to 3.
 The New Haven polo team journeyed to the borough town last night for the purpose of playing off their fixture with form shown lately by the Wallingford team 1t was expected that the boys In blue would have to play a rattling good game to win. The New Haven team
 started out with their old time dash and before the game was well begun
 E. Gavitt sent the ball spinning past
 the veteran Curley. Six minutes later
 Spencer scored a beauty amidst ap-
 plause and 13 second later F. Gavitt again sent the ball behind Curley,
 Dawson of New Haven followed quick ly after with another and just before the gong sounded his namesake of Wal lingford beat Mallory. In the second period the game was fast and exciting but the rushers were unable to down either Curley or Mallory and the limit was reached without any scoring. In the third period Wallingford started out to try and retrieve their lost ground but were unable to cage the ball more than twice, while New Haven accom- plished the same feat. Only one foul was called during the game, lthat on Tierney for tripping. About 400 people witnessed the game and MT. Leahy gave the utmost satisfaction in his de- cisions. Score and summary:

Commenting upon these figures. Con-
sui Constable says: THUS during this
period Great Britain S trade has in
creased by slightly more than 21a per
cent; that of Germany and the United
States each by Is per cent, while the
trade Of France has steadily declined.
The volume of trade has, it need
scarcely be- said, increased to a much
greater degree than is indicated by
these figures, but owing to the almost
universal similarity in the prices of
commodities, the increase in value OF
exports and imports has been less than
might have been expected"
The percentage of increase Of popu-
lation in the leading countries Is shown
in the tables, which give the increase
in population in the United States dur
ing the last ten years at "A per cent,
the British colonies and dependencies
increased II per cent, Germany II per

ain and Ireland SIT per cent, and
France 0S7S per cent.

Our Increase Twice as Rapid as That Of
Most Other Nations.
Interesting Figures Presented in
Statistical Tables Issued by the
Swedish Government Covering
/. the Commerce and Production
of the World in a Series Of
Five-Year Periods.

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-A special, to
the Tribune" from Washington says:
The rapid gain Of the United States in
her invasion of the commerce Of the
world is intelligently discussed by the
British Consul at Stockholm, Sweden,
by the aid of an important series of
statistical tables just issued by the
Swedish Government, covering the COM
merce and production of the world in a
series Of hve-year periods. These tables,
which have attracted much attention
by reason of the extensive resources,
are discussed by Consul Constable in a
special report to the. British Govern
Tnent, copy of which has just reached
the Treasury Bureau of Statistics. In
this report he compares the production
and commerce of the leading nations,
and through his analysis of the gain or
loss which they have made presents an
interesting picture of the growth of. the
chief producing and commercial inter
ests of the United States in comparison
with that of other great nations. This
analysis, coming from these unpreju-
diced sources, is especially interesting
in view of it's favorable showing rela-
tive TO the production and commerce of
the United States.
The principal pigiron producing coun-
tries are given as France, Germany,
Great Britain and the United States.
In the quinquennial period, 1S11-75, the
average annual production of France
was / ,265, 600 tons, and In the period
1891 -95, 2,006, 900; Germany increased
from an average of /, 946, 600 tons in
the period 1S71-75 to 5,50S,0OO tons in
the 1S91-95 period. Great Britain in
creased from an annual average of
6,562000 tons in the 1S11-13 period to
1861 900 per annum in the 1891 80
term, while the United States increased
from an average annual production Of
2 2S4, 600 in the 1S71-13 period to an
average of S.263, 600 tons per annum
IN the 1895 period.
Commenting upon this table, Consul
Constable says:
During this period it appears that
Great Britain and Ireland's proportion
al share in the worlds production Of
pigiron has sunk from 40.3 per cent. to
27.5 per cent, while on the other hand
the United States has increased its
proportion of output from 16.1 per cent.

sUTRO's ESTATE.
Assertion That the Vast Property
is InsoIveut

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15.-The
Evening Post" says that the three mil
lion dollar estate Of the late Adolph Su-
tro is insolvent, and that unless the
creditors agree to withdraw their claims
for the time being, that the estate will
be hopelessly swamped.
Much of Sutro's property is mort
gagged, and the interest and other nee
essary expenditures are eating the es-
tate up very rapidly. The executors Of
the estate say that if time is given them
every possible demand will be met, and
that there will be a large residue for the
heirs.
The attorneys for the Sutro estate
deny that there is another will, and say
that Mrs Kluge's claims are ground1ess.
