ANGLO AMERICAN COMMERCE
GREAT INCREASE IN DOMESTIC EX-
PORTS OF UNITED SIATES.
Yemr 1898 tho First ina Which They Ex-
ceeded Those of the United Kingdom -
Each Country Passes the Billion DOL
lar Mark by Good Margin-Continu-
ance of Friendly Rivalry.

Washington, March 19.-Ambassadol
Choate's recent remark that the Unlteo
States and the United Kingdom would
doubtless continue friendly rivalry
In regard to their commerce is quite
justified by the latest figures on the
commerce of the two countries as sup
piled by the treasury bureau of statis-
tics. These show that the exports OF
domestic merchandise of the United
States in the eight months ending in
February amount to 1929, 335,141 and
those from the United Kingdom
amount to s79S $780, ,427. In the calen-
dar year, 1898, the domestic exports
from the United States amounted to
81, ,233, ,564, ,S2S, while those from the Uni
ted Kingdom amounted to 81, 4,351.
The year 1898 was the first in which
the domestic exports from the United
States exceeded the domestic exports
from the United Kingdom. On only
two occasions prior to 1898 have the
domestic exports of the United States
exceeded a billion dollars, while those
of the United Kingdom have constant
ly exceeded billion dollars during the
past twenty years. The latest year IN
which her exports of domestic mer-
chandise fell below the billion dollar
line was in 1870, when they amounted
to 1928 $780, ,026. In 1879 our own exports
of domestic merchandise amounted to
$754 656, ,755. Thus in the twenty years
since 1879, the figures show an increase
of but % per cent. in the domestic ex-
ports of the United Kingdom and of
63 per cent. in those of the United
States, apparently quite justifying
Ambassador Choate's assertion that
the United States would continue to be
a rival, though a friendly one, of the
United Kingdom In its relations with
the commercial world
That the rivalry has been and is a
friendly one, even to the extent of cor
diality, is shown by the fact that de-
spite our rapid increase in the supplies
which we are offering to the markets
of the world, Great Britain continues
to take proportionate share of that
increase. Our exports Of domestic
merchandise to the United Kingdom in
1879 amounted to s346, ,4S5Ss1, and in
1888 were $534 4,39S.302, an increase of 54
per cent, while as already shown our
general exports increased 63 per cent.
during that period. This is the more
striking and worthy of remark in view
OF the fact that our own imports from
the United Kingdom have not in
creased at the rate her purchases from
us have grown. Indeed, the imports
into the United States from the Uni
ted Kingdom in 1898 are no greater
than they were twenty years ago, the
imports from the United Kingdom in
1879 being $10S,53S,S12, and in 1898
$10S, ,945, 1856.

SPANISH VAR HERO DEAD.
Thomas G. Boone, the Telegraph oper-
atOr I'm Famous War Balloon.

Boston, March 19.-Thomas Carroll
Boone, the telegraph operator in the
famous war balloon in the battles be-
fore Santiago died to-day at the Mas
sachusetts general hospital as the re-
suit of an operation on a wound re-
ceived in the fall of the balloon after
it had been shot to pieces Boone,
with two government officers, per-
formed heroic work in the great air
ship which was a target for the Span
ish gunners until it fell into the trees
and threw all three men out Boone
was caught in the drag anchor and
was fearfully wounded, from the ef-
fects of which he never fully recov-
cred, although since last fall UP to
within ten days of his death he con-
tinued his work as a teegrapher.
He was born in Annapolis, Md, in
1876 and went to the front as first cor
poral Of Company X, Second Massa-
chusetts volunteers. Soon after the
regiment reached Tampa he was de-
tatched and made a sergeant in the
government signal service. In the
first days fight he went up in the bal
loon and sent all the messages, and
continued the work on the second day,
during the battle Of San Juan hill.
After receiving his wound in the fall Of
the balloon he was sent to the general
hospital and remained there until
September, when he was sent home on
sick leave. AS he could not be mus
tered out with his old regiment, the
Second Massachusetts, he was given a
leave of absence, and has since been in
the employ of the Postal Telegraph
company and stationed in the office OF
the Boston Globe. He received his
honorary discharge about six weeks
ago. During the early part of the
week his wound again became trouble
some, and on Friday he went to the
Massachusetts, general hospital for
treatment. 1t was decided to perform
three operations upon him, which was
done yesterday. He never rallied and
sank rapidly this afternoon.
Mr.. Boone was a direct descendant
not only of Daniel Boone of Kentucky.
but of Charles Carroll of Carrolton.
Maryland, signor of the declaration
OF independence. The remains will be
sent to Springfield tonight and the
funeral will be held in the First church
in that city on Tuesday, Company K
assisting in the services At the con-
clusion the body will be sent to Annap-
Oils for interment. 1t is a peculiar cir
cumstance that calamity has over
taken all three Of the men who were in
the unfortunate balloon. One of the
officers died as the result of his iniu-
ries, while another is an inmate of an
insane asylum.
