EUROPEAN BALANCES.

There are some indications that bankers In
Europe as we'll as persons here who are hos
tile TO the National policy regarding protective
duties have been calculating that imports OF
foreign goods into this country will continue to
expand month by month, surprising In summer
and fall months the heavy imports In earlier
months this year, and creating indebtedness
abroad large enough to nearly or quite balance
the sums due for products exported. The re-
turns for the weeks OF July do not support this
view At New-York the imports last week were
slightly less than for the same week last year.
and in five weeks the increase over last year
has been only 16 per cent. As 1t has been greater
here than at most other points, and has ranged
from 20 to over 80 per cent during this last half
year. and as an increase OF 10 per cent would
balance but part OF the excess of exports over
imports in July of last year or in any of the
months following such expectations seem likely
IN he disapponted The time has not yet come,
as was shown with much detail last month, for
enemies of the tariff TO shout that It has failed,
and no longer restricts imports Of the kind it
was intended to restrict
It is not possible TO determine with great GER
ta,nty at the opening of a crop year how great
the demand Of other countries during that year
NAV be for American products. But It is OF
some value to compare the judgments or those
| on both sides Of the ocean who are most ex-
perenced In estimating the future course Of
| trade. and this year such authorities seem TO
be generally agreed that the shortage of grain
in other countries is large, and will have to be
met by shipments from this country nearly If
not quite as large ns those Of recent years. The
exports in July go far to sustain this view. and
the course of foreign exchange already indicates
the belief in banking circles that shipments of
gold to this country will not easily be prevented
European observers have not failed to recog-
nize that there is no longer practically I'M

perts accompany the expedition. which
Is escorted by native Somalis.
The expedition was carefully and

interior was made through Portuguese
territory. the port of Chindi being Sc
lected as the most convenient. A

were used with such good effect on the

JAPANESE EMIGRATION.

VICTORIA (B. c.. Sept. 19.-The
wholesale migration of japanese to the
Hawaiian Islands, which a year or so
ago occasioned their Government con-
siderable alarm. has again become a
live issue at Toxic. According to ad-
vices by the Empress today, agents of
the Hawaiian plantations nave been
employed during three months past Sc
curing contract laborers through the
main island Of Japan, and the success
of their efforts was brought forcibly
to the notice of the Toxic Government
recently by the announcement that
transportation had been arranged for
1910 men and 1850 women. all engaged
for plantations in the Hawaiian group.
The agents are now Fastening forward
their shipment preparations, inasmuch
as it is promised that keen restrictive
measures will be introduced at the first
assembling OF the Japanese Parlia-
ment. or the laborers thus far engag-
ed majority are to open up new plan

VICTORIA, d. c., Sept. l9.-The
Royal Mail steamer Empress of India,
arriving here today. was signaled as
she passed the rocky beach at Onomi-
chi. Japan, on which the shipwrecked
men Of the transport Morgan City are
camped, only the masts and funnel
tops OF their steamer being visible.
Thus interrupting the voyage of a lin
er is a serious matter. and 1t was a
serious matter that occasioned 1t, the
800 or more men for Philippine re-en-
forcement finding themselves on
shortest rations and with a prospect
Of even these stopping. Five days
food had been sent from Kobe, but
there remained but one days provi-
siOns and no sign Of the promised re-
lief steamer. The Empress gave all
the supplies that, could be spared from
the ships stores and anticipated that
there would be no further hunger
among the castaways.
No decision had at that time been
reached as to the raising of the vessel,
which, according to the report of the
japanese cruiser Yoshino, which Wis
tied the scene Immediately after the
disaster, will be very difficult, II not
impossible. Nor had any steps been
taken toward the recovery of the ST.
900 in pay money that went down
with the ship. The point at which
the disaster occurred Is a desolate
spot In the Inland Sea between Kobe
and Nagasaki, known as Miura, near
Onomichi, BingO province. The cur
rent runs strong, and there Is some
fear of the ship being washed bare by
the action Of the water, the men hav-
ing been successful only in removing
their personal belongings.
Under orders from the Governor at
Hiroshima, the Chief of the district
police, with several inspectors and
policemen, the heads of the village
and doctors and nurses of the Hiroshi-
ma Red Cross Society were promptly
on the scene TO relieve the immediate
necessities OF the unfortunate men.
They were totally unprepared, how
ever, to cope with the food question for
so numerous body, and had not the
Canadian Pacific steamer responded to
their call they must have experienced
all the torments Of acute hunger.
The Empress also brings word from
Manila that the United States trans
port Hooker, which had been on the
rocks of Corregidor Island, had been
fioated, but that the Spanish steamer
Espana, which had gone to the assist
ance of the Hooker. is now on the
rocks herself. The Hooker's hull has
been damaged, the full extent of her
injuries being impossible to estimate
until she has been locked at Hong
kong.
