An exciting game of ball was witnessed
by large crowd Saturday morning on the
grounds Of the Maryland Agricultural Col
lege at College Park between the club rep
resenting that institution and the Western
Maryland College. Both teams We're evenly
matched and a number of brilliant and diff
fcuit plays We're made by both teams. NJ.
\. c. won by to 4. Barnhart official ed
for the Westminster boys and pitched d
steady game, having FIVE Strike-outs to his
credit and allowing his opponents but six
hits Reuhr. who ofiiciated for the Agrcul-
tursts, also showed up strong. The same
number OF hits Were made off him as We're
made off the opposing pitcher. The farmer
boys put up an exceptionally "scrappy'
game of ball, making number Of difficult
plays. Cameron, who played second base,
distinguished himself by cutting off several
apparently safe hits.
The score until the eighth inning was
to = in favor of the Western Maryland Col
lege. After several opportunities Were Of
fered to retire the M. A. c. Devon came to
the bat with two men on bases and lined
out home run making the final score to

broke the indoor record for high jump at
the Convention Hall meet in this city dur
ing the winter.
More than sixty preparatory schools high
schools. academies and other institutions
were represented on the busy program, so
that this years relay carnival broke records
for numbers as well for excitement and
notable performances.
These annual events have been very sue
ceSsful in bringing together athletes from
almost everywhere. and it was notable that
in the championship mile race which Yale
won-Chicago University sent out a team
which finished third. and was coached by
the famous Amos AlonZo Stage. Walter
Camp came down from New Haven to see
his pets do a few things to the rivals of
the Red and Blue. and with Stage and
Casper Whitney made up quite a remark
able group of authorities on amateur
sports.
Father Bill Curtis was referee and the
"Nestor" of the field and track
In the intercollegiate races, next after
the Yale and Pennsylvania contests, the
most interest was aroused by the dual race
between Georgetown and the Western Uni
versity of Pennsylvania. 1t was a game
of win by a nose all through, and, I'M
like most OF the other matches it wasn't
over until the last Georgetown man came
down the stretch just enough ahead of his
headlong competitor to carry off the prize
of the blue winning the one-miIe two-mile
and four-mile championship relay races
The team of the Central High School of
this city won second place in the school
relay race, South Jersey Institute being
hrst. The Washington team was Brinker-
hof, Dear, Stafford and Sundheim, the first
three winning their quarters, but Sund-
helms finishing third kept the average
down.
]. E. Mulligan of Georgetown University
finished second to Tewksbury, Z. of P, in
the 120 yards special.
Dick Sheldon, formerly of Yale, and
now wearing the colors of the N Y A. c.,
put the shot, and smashed the interco-
legiate record with all the ease in the
world. The projectile landed forty-four
feet seven and half inches from where he
stood. and before he thus converted him

Pennsylvania had been best man with a

INCREASE IN OUR EXPORTS.
A Notable Month i'm the History of the
Country,

American manufacturers made their high
est record in foreign markets in March. The
hgures of the months expectations, which
the treasury bureau of statistics issued
earlier than on any previous occasion, show
that the March expectations of manufac-
lures were $36, 025 49, or more than % per
cent in excess of any preceding month. in
March last year the expectations of manu-
features We're $2S,214 $50; in March 1877
SIS, SIG s61, and in March, 1896, s19, 125 195
On only two occasions, March and Decem-
Der. 1898, have the exports of a single
month ever reached S2S, 900, while in
March, 1899, they were. as already indicat-
ed, $50, OBS 1913, an increase of 30 per cent
over those of the preceding month, Febru-
airy, 1899.
Prior to 1891 exports of manufactures
neve" averaged in any month as much as
a million dollars for each business day. In
five months of 1898 they averaged a million
dollars for each business day, but it was
left for March, 1899, to make the average of
more than million dollars for each
day in the month, or an average of 81, 400
coo for each business day.
The increase in the expectations of manu-
features is apparent in nearly all lines. OF
agricultural implements the March, 1899 ex-
ports were S2,3I9,144, against s, 47o,397 IN
March of the preceding year. Exports of
cotton cloths increased from 81, 030.657 yards
In March, 1898, to Al, 266,959 yards in March.
1899. and of this amount the exports 20
China alone were %. 433, 500 yards, against
13,635S74 yards in March of last year.
Chinaware increased from $13 9S6 in March
of last year to $40, 1873 in March, 1899. In
strnments for scientific purposes, includ-
ing telegraph. telephone. ETC., increased
from 500 01S in March. 1898, to s4Sl, 100 in
March. 1899, thus showing an increase of
more than 100 per cent. Builders hardware
increased SO per cent, sewing machines
nearly 80 per cent typewrters nearly 80
per cent, leather about 40 per cent. boots

A HOT CONTEST
Georgetown VIII Play Virginia Again
TOmOrrOIY.

Georgetown will play the University of
Virginia again tomorrow, and the lesson
taught by Saturdays game will not be
wasted, for in this game there will be no
undertaking of opponents. AS this is the
last game Virginia has scheduled with
Georgetown, she Is most anxious to wipe
out her former defeat. and the game will
be hotly contested from start to finish. This
game has aroused such interest that even
a larger attendance is expected than was
present at the recent meeting of the two
colleges. when several thousand spectators
watched the struggle.

over Johns Hopkins University of Balt-

The teams were well matched and the game
was largely u pitchers battle, in which
hOnors were even. The visitors ran bases
better and batted more opportuney, but
their fielding was decidedly loose and their
defeat can be ascribed to their misplays.
The GallaudetS also ffclded poorly. but took
every advantage of their opponents mis-
plays, which were combined with timely
hits.

From whatever standpoint the March rec
ord or the exports of manufactures is con-
sidered, it is not only interesting but sur
prising. For the first time in our history
the exports of manufactures formed more
than one-third of the total exports The
highest record ever made for a complete
year WAS that of 1897, when manufactures
formed 26.S per cent of the total exports,
While the March, 1879. figures show manu.
features to be 3J.3 per cent of the total ex-
ports of that month. The March exports
oil manufactures are, in round numbers. 20
per cent In excess Of the imports of man
ufactures, while for the nine months the
exports OF manufactures amount to S242-
SS8,G45, against S1o4. 22G. Gg5 worth Of inn
ports of manufactures during the same Pc
Rod.
Exported to Manufacturing Countries.
Still another curious and extremely inter-
esting fact is that more than one-haR of
the exported manufactures go to the great
manufacturing countries of the world. OF
the s6,5oOoeo worth of agricultural imple-
ments exported in the nine months ending
with March, 1899. s.. 10000 worth went to
Europe; of the 100000 worth of books
maps and enGravings exported during that
time more than one-third Went To Euro
pean countries; of carriages and cars Eu-
fopean countries took one-fourth, while of
the 4,opoO worth of bicycles exported
y t'1,N0 worth went to Europe
Even in clocks and watches Europe took
$5ll,oO of the 81 .392.OOO worth exported
during the period under review, while of
scientific instruments and those used for
telegraph, telephone and other electrical
systems nearly 80 per cent went to Europe
OF the S3,J'S.o0o worth of builders hard
ware exported more than s.. 100000 worth
was sent TO European countries; of the
S2.2ooooO worth of sewing machines export
e1 sl,'noo went TO European countries;
or the Sl6s4Oo0 worth of typewriters ex-
ported 81. 43OOOO worth was taken by Euro
pean countries. while nearly one-haIf of the
furniture, one-haf OF the lumber two
thirds of the mineral oil, four-fifths of the
cotton seed oil and nine-tenths of the sole
leather were taken by European countries.
