drowning.
NEW YORK, April 4.-Dr. Frede-

another winter, as originally planned.
We lost a man by accident and one
by disease"
The last previous communication
from the expedition was from Ushu-
ala, the southern point of Terra del
on the next day the steamship would
sail for the unknown south Origin
ally the purpose was to return last

NEW YORK. April 4.-Equipped by
IL, - #
francs, the Belgica left Antwerp on
July 25, 1897, to enter on her Antarc-

err, was refitted to resist ice pressure

"a captive balloon to facilitate obser-
vations and surveys. Carrier pigeons
were taken, one of which subsequent

France Is again passing through
political crisis. The events of last
week eliminated in an issue between
the chambers and the ministry and the
former having voted to proceed to the
consideration of motion which the
government declined to accept, the min
istry at once resigned. The motion was
really reflection upon the government,
so that in the circumstances the minis.
try, which is responsible to the cham
bers, could not credtably retain office,
but these periodical crises suggest that
q change in the political system of
France Is desirable for the better Sc
curity of republican institutions. For
such people as the French it would
seem that the American cabinet plan
would be much safer and more salts
factory than that of a ministry subject
to the control, as to its political re-
sponsibility, of the legislative branch
of the government.
The extraordinary measures taken by
the government to protect President
Loubet when visiting the races Sunday
caused the issue and from an Amer
lean point of view the whole affair ap
pears quite ridiculous. The govern
ment may have felt justified, in view
of what had taken place on the pre-
ceding Sunday, in making formidable
array of soldiers and police on the
route taken by the president, but 1t is
easy to understand that such a display
of force should be regarded as unre
publican and so chara racterHed by ma
jority of the representatives of the peo-
pie. There can be no doubt that Presi-
dent Loubet made a grave mistake in
permitting it. Some precaution was
undoubtedly necessary, but there was
no good reason for the extraordinary
demonstration which tn. government
made, for as it transpired the friends
of the president were largely in the
majority all along the route. The ac-
tion of the government will not increase
popular respect for Loubet, on whom
really rests the responsibility. AS to
the crisis, it will probably simply fur
nish little diversion. Nothing serious
is to be apprehended from 1t and in
few days the political situation will
have resumed it's wonted aspect.

TRADE WITH DEPENDENCIES.

A statement just issued by the treas
ury bureau of statistics shows that
American producers are finding en-
Hawaii and the Philippines 1t is in
dicated that the exports for the current
fiscal year to Hawaii and the Philip
pines will be larger than ever before,
while the exports to Cuba and Porto
Rico show a very considerable increase
over the corresponding period of last
year. 1t is figured that the total ex
ports to all these islands in the full
fiscal year ending with this month will
reach about $30,0OOOOO, against ST.
100000 last year. To the Philippines
the exports are three times as much as
in the corresponding months Of any pre-
ceding year. The figures do not include
any of the supplies sent by the govern
ment
While this is q somewhat gratifying
statement, it is to be said that trade
with Cuba and Porto Rico has not in
creased as much as had been expected,
particularly with the former, and mer-
chants in the Cuban trade have eN-
pressed disappointment at the slow i'm
provement. The Cuban trade cannot
increase rapidly, however, so long as
existing conditions in the island con-
tinue and the growth that has been
realized ought to be regarded as very
satisfactory. 1t will probably be sew
eral years before we shall have as large
a commerce with Cuba as we had seven
or eight years ago, but there is GER
tain to be in time a very ex-
tensive trade with that island. En-
ports of American products to Porto
Rico will of course further improve
but it is not a market from which great
benefit is to be expected. The island
has been developed to almost the limit
of its possibilities and there Is little
opportunity for much expansion of tts
commerce. Our advantage will be in
getting most of the trade that was
Spains. AS to the Philippines we shall
of course materially increase our trade
with the islands, but it will never
amount to anywhere near the eXtrava-
CANT calculations that have been made
by some, for our commercial compet-
itors will have an equal chance with
us in that market.

SI' LOuIS TIUD9-DtIlOVIdI.
The falling OF in the number and extent
of the business failures in the United
States is one of the most remarkable of all
the features of this marvellous period of
financial expansion. The number of fail
uTes reported by the Dun agency in May
was only 5S1, as compared with 955 in May
of last year. The liabilities of the wrecked
traders have fallen in like proportion. The
exhibit for May in this respect was the best
ever shown in the United States since the
record OF business failures first began to be
compiled. All this reveals a financial solid
ity throughout the country which is one of
the notable circumstances of the sweeping
revival in business confidence. Organism
can read its death warrant in this grand
display Of financial stability.
