This seems to be attacking the reform

of what plant is worth installing as those

Our Export Trade in Oil

Despite the fear SO frequently expressed
OF late that the large production of petro-
eum in Russia and Dutch East Indies and
the increased use of electricity for lighting
purposes would reduce our valuable exports
OF illuminating oils, the year just ended, ac-
cording to the bureau of statistics reports,
has shown the greatest expectation of that
article in the history of that important
branch of our foreign commerce, and the
figures for August show the largest exporta-
tlons OF oil for any single month on record.
The reports of the treasury bureau of sta.
tistics show that the exports of mineral oils
in the fiscal year 1893 passed the billion
gallon line, the total, including all classes,
being l,034, ,2G9,676 gallons, against 9736l4,
946 gallons in 1897 and 500, ASS, 1894 gallons in

Capture of a Slave Ship

1t is reported from Muscat that H. NJ. S.
Sphinx, while making one of her periodical
trips around the pirate coast of the Persian
gulf, observed dhow, crowded with men,
making for one of the numerous ports scat
tered up and down the coast. Capt.
Baker of the Sphinx, thinking the appear
ance of the dhow suspicious, ordered her
to be boarded and examined when so men
were discovered on board, some of whom
were divers bound for pearl fishery, while
were being taken to the pirate coast for
sale. This is, perhaps, the first case on rec
ord for many years in which a dhow has
been seized in the gulf.-Allahabad Pioneer.
