Admiral Dewey has been instructed TO
prescribe his own uniform, and although it is
not believed he has given much attention
to the matter of uniform of late, it is pos

blue, with four stars in the shape of dia-
mond. Under former regulations when the

The returns Of the foreign trade
.ot the United States for August run
IN very large figures. There is a
big increase on both sides of the
CONNIE eial ledger. The imports
of merchandise amount to S66, ,718,-
737, and the exports to $1o4, ,6S4, :
436, in comparison with imports of
S49,677,349 and exports of 1884,
565,561 i'll August, 1898. Here is
an increase of $I7,o4I, ,3SS in i'm
ports, and fS2o,118,875 in exports.
The total value of merchandise
handled amounts to $I7I,4o3,I73,
an enormous sum for an August
exhibit. One year ago the total
stood at SI34, 4,242, ,9Io; two years
ago it was $12o, 600, 9,655; three
years ago, IIS,o69,I96, and four
years ago, in August, 1895, $I27,-
o9o, ,562. Thus, our foreign trade
last month exceeded by no less
than $40, ,3S4,593 the average of the
August figures i'll the previous eight
years. The balance of trade-that
IS, the excess of the imports over
the exports of merchandise-stands
at S37965, 500, against $34, 1888, gig
a twelvemonth back, an increase of
S3,o774S7. The increase of SEQ
1855 in the exports of merchan-
chandise undoubtedly covers a con-
siderable gain in our shipments of
manufactured goods. The returns
for this class have not yet been
made public by the bureau of statis-
tics, but as the increase in the ex-
ports of breadstuds, provisions, cot
ton and petroleum accounts for but
50, 366,97S of the improvement in
exports, leaving SIo,751, ,So7 to be
divided among the other classes,
there is wide margin of room for
an increase under the head of man
uiactures. August was a bumper
month, and the country may we'll
eNult i'll the exhibit which it makes.
