yME.XICO'S DEVELOPMENT.

Increase is the word marked
over every statistic Of trade given
out by Mexico. The exports have
increased over the imports, and
both are larger than at any time
during the life of that republic.
Agriculture, manufacturing, and
mining all show large gains. The
railroads are earning more and
steamships are crowding her ports
in a manner hitherto almost un-
known.
This, in brief tells the situation
in the country where Diaz is the
benefcent but none the less abso-
lutte dictator. The Mexican HIM
self is to large extent responsible
for this condition of affairs. He
is reaching out and exploiting the
resources of his country at every
opportunity. He is organizing
syndicates and he is taking con-
tracts-he is exhibiting his pro-
ducts at state fairs and at national
exposi'ions-in word, he is push
ing Chile hard for the honor of be-
ing called the yankee of the
South. :"
Nor have Americans been slow
to see the advantages that are
offered for trade IN Mexico. Capital
is flowing into that country to buy
farms, sink shafts and build fac
tories. Congressman Dingley's son
is at the head Of large company
which proposes to erect there al
enormous candy and cracker fac
tory. American buyers have gone
into Mexico to buy $4,000 head OF
cattle to ship to Cuba and Porto
Rico. In the last few years many
cotton factories have been built by
Americans, who import half the
raw cotton they use from the states
Mexican papers are full of com.
ments on the excellence of Ameri.
can machinery, which has beer
imported in large quantities recent
ly. The demand for American
bicycles is 20 per cent greater thar
it was four years ago, and is
steadily growing.
American machinery and Ameri
can methods go hand in hand The
merchants Of Mexico no longer de-
mand nine and twelve months time
on their bills, but are learning te
pay in thirty days or take a dis.
count at ten days. Statesmen anc
agents representing our merchants
scour the country from end to enc
placing orders or buying.

SPAIN IS NOT GUILTY.
THE CALIFORNIA POWDER WORKS
AT SANTA CRUZ BLOWN UP.
SmokeIess Powder Plant Escapes and
Government Contracts May Not
BE Hindered.

SANTA CRUZ, Cal, April 26.-Three eX-
blossoms about 5:15 this afternoon at the
California powder works caused a greater
loss of life than any of the previous acct
dents in the history of these works The
widest rumors are prevalent regarding the
number of killed and injured, the exact
number of which cannot be ascertained be-
fore morning. 1t is known that seven were
killed and four seriously injured, as follows:
Killed-Edward Kilderan. brickmason; J..
Miller, foreman of one of the mills c. A.
Cole carpenter; E. Jennings, J. Jose and
two boys named Marshall. Injured-J. Nell
son. William Burge, J. Hannah and M
Nunsen.
AS nearly as can be learned, the primary
cause Of the disaster was the explosion of
the gun cotton plant. The igniting of this
plant caused the fire to spread to the adj
joining brush and small buildings and was
then communicated to the powder mill fiat,
where are located the houses of the en-
ployes of the works. The employees and
naval reserve boys worked heroically to
prevent the fire from spreading to the
smokeless powder plant. No doubt is en-
tertained among the officials of the works
that the explosion was due 10 an accident.
Extraordinary precautions had been taken
to prevent treachery and no Well-informed
man entertains the opinion that the acci-
dent was the work OF a Spanish. spy as 1T
at first suggested. 1t is not thought
the explosion will interfere with the manu-
facture OF smokeleSs powder for the gov
eminent None of the plants for making
powder for the fulfillment of government
contracts is injured. In addition to the gun
cotton plant, most of the cottages occupied
by the employees were burned.

HAWAII NOT SEIZED.
sold Glory" Had Not Been Raised on
April 10, When the Last Ship Left.

HONOLULU, April 10. via San Francisco,
April 26.-The Hawaiian Star has this
to say regarding the f1ag-raising story:
while the rumored seizure of these islands
by the United States coaling station,
which was referred to in the Star has not
taken place. there are those who believe
that it will take place and that at no dis
tant date. 1t was expected that those high
in authority would scout the idea, for it
is not usual to confess to such state Sc
,crets, but because the flag has not been
raised to-day does not signify anything.
There may be something significant, how
ever, in the fact that an officer of the
United States ship Bennington went
through the city a few days ago and tried
to buy number of American flags. He
succeeded in getting one large one from a
dealer and said he would take a half dozen
or more if he could get them. When told
that an order could be filled quickly at San
Francisco, he replied that he must have
the flags at once and could not wait for a
steamer. Small flags were not wanted. 1t
is accepted as a certainty that the islands
will be seized as soon as war is declared p"
The rumor that British Consul Kenney
has requested the Hawaiian Islands to de-
clare neutrality at once has been disposed
of by Minister Cooper, who states that Mr..
Aenney has made no such request

LONDON, April 27.-Loyds underwriters
now consider the risk of the capture of the

North German Lloyd steamship Lain,
which touched at Plymouth at S:45 p. IN.
yesterday, EN- route for Bremen, from New
York, reports that she sighted no Spanish

claimed.

WEST POINTERS GRADUATED.
Glass of '9S Given Their Diplomas Be-
fore End of Academic Yenr.

HIGHLAND FALLS, N. Y, April Co
West Point, at 2 o'clock to-day, graduated
the class of 1898. The stern requirements of
the service permitted nothing but short GER
emonies. The delivery of the diplomas was
made by Col. o. III. Ernst, superintendent of
the academy, and the address to the class by.
Col. Peter S. Niche, professor of natural
and experimental philosophy. This Is the
first time since 1861 that any class has been
graduated before the end Of the academic
year. There was none of the many pleas
ant features which usually attend gradua-
ton OF the class, but there were .hlty-fve
happy young men. The examination
usually held in June will probably not be
held this year until later. as it may become
necessary to graduate the second class soon.
If this becomes necessary that examination
and graduation may not take place before
July or August. Most of the new officers
will be assigned to the new artillery reSi-
ments and the rest divided up among the
volunteers. Following IS the standing OF
the first ten men of the class in order of
general merit: Frank Boggs, Of Pennsyi-
