A CRAZY PROWLER.
ogden's Mysterious Burglar Is Evil
IDENTIFY Demented.

The mysterious burglar of Ogden Is
still abroad and has been heard from
in various parts of the city. The man
is evidently crazy. He seems to break
into houses for no purpose whatever
except to demonstrate that he can do
so and to gaze on some sleeper until
the sleeper wakes. In this latter event
he retires from the house at his leisure.
Early yesterday morning Mrs. Cum
ningham, residing on Twentyfirst
street, was awakened and observed the
man standing at her bedside. He struck
a match and gazed at her by its light.
She screamed, and the fellow held up
his hand with a warning gesture and
said "S-hr' The fellow struck an
other match or two and remained near
the bed until David Tracy, who lives
next door to the Cunningham family.
came over in response to the woman's
screams. The intruder then left quietly
and seemingly in no hurry.
An examination showed that the
man had struck at least a dozen
matches in the room. Mr.. Cunningham
is a fireman and was out on the road
at the time of the burglary. 1t was
learned that the fellow entered through
a window, but went out through the
back door. Mrs. Cunningham's descrip-
ton of the man tallies with that of the
other parties who have seen him. He
was man of about medium height.
wearing a SLOUGH hat and with the
upper part of his features wound with
a handkerchief.
The police at once renewed the search
for the mysterious midnight visitor. 1t
was learned that q. man answering the
description of the burglar had applied
to the home of Mrs. Dinsdale, near the
Tracy place. The fellow was noticed
talking to himself and acting queerly
in other respects.

trade expansion has done and can do

the American export manufacturer and
will be known as the national export
exposition.
The exposition will be marked by
some notable gatherings. 1t will be
formally opened by President McKin-
ley. Official representatives will be
sent by nearly all foreign countries.
President Diaz of Mexico has accepted
special invitation to attend, and il
is expected that he viii be present
some time during the month Of Octo-
Der. About the middle Of October a
great international trade congress, the
first of the kind ever held in this coun-
try, will assemble in Philadelphia. 1t
will be composed Of delegates from all
parts of the world, and all sorts of
questions relating to international
trade will be discussed by authorities
in the various lines of commerce and
industry.
Notwithstanding the great gathering
of foreigners that is expected to at

ufactures left on hand by that period
of depression naturally sought for
eign outlet. Our manufacturers found
that in certain lines there was no ques
ton of the superiority of American
goods. In other lines, particularly those
sent to South America, Africa and the
Orient, the particular form or appear
ance or preparation of our goods pre-
JUDGED them in the minds of buyers
not familiar with them.
In spite of these drawbacks our for
eign trade has grown and ii has re-
ceived a remarkable impetus from the
events of the past eight months. The
superior producing power of American
and American workmen
makes it possible for US to compete
with foreign exporters. But the COM
petition is close and if the American is
to take and hold a foremost place he
must know his markets thoroughly.
For each exporter or manufacturer to
study this matter independently would
require a great deal of expenditure of
time and money, but when done on a
large scale and on the collective princi-
pie it becomes a simpler matter.
1T will bring together within small
compass and place at the disposal of
American producers and exporters all

compete successfully against them. In

sion congress appropriated $350,000 for
the project. For the local advantages
expected to accrue from it the state
of Pennsylvania has given $4,000 to-

Air. Widener says in explaining the
purpose of the exposition:
while practical demonstration has
proved that American manufacturers
are superior to those of foreign coun-
tries in most lines of production, il is
true that European nations. like Eng

a certain advantage over our own eX-

to American products. The museum
maintains a permanent exposition in
Philadelphia, where it displays all the
trade products that are likely to be of
practical interest to Americans. For
example, its wool exhibit contains over
1000 specimen fieeces, including sam
pies of every variety grown in any
part of the world.
Another part of the institutions work
is the investigation of credits. 1t keeps
list of the principal dealers in all
foreign ports, with all available infor-
nation as to his credit trustworthiness
and the extent of his business. This
information is at the disposal of Amer
lean shippers and is of great convent
ence to them.
The museum collects and keeps on
file all current information regarding
the progress of our export trade.
DR.. Wilson says on this subject:
THE Investigations which we keep
constantly on foot show that there is
a steady, rapid and healthy growth in
the export of general manufactures.
For instance, nobody will be surprised
by the statement that we shipped
abroad So, 200, 900 worth of iron and
iron manufactures last year, but ii may
occasion some surprise to know that We
also exported 100000 of agricultural
implements So, 600 of chemicals. 81
000 900 of bicycles. 100000 of oil coke,
100000 of carriages and the same
amount of railway cars, sS,000000 of
oleomargarine and s2,0OO,O00 of boots
and shoes. This list is sufficient to
show that there is considerable variety
in the products that we send abroad.
American manufacturers are like
wise making inroads, on fields which
the British or Germans have hereto
fore had exclusively to themselves.
American manufacturers are push
ing out in every direction. What they
most need at present is information as
to foreign markets and products. The
museum and the forthcoming exposi-.
ton will furnish this and will form a
school of commercial expansion by
which our exporters and manufactur-
ers can profit to the extent of mil
lions"

SURVIVORS OF THE WRECK.
More Details of the Disaster at
Wells.

A lot OF horses, survivors of the
Southern Pacific wreck near Wells.
came in from the west yesterday and
are now in the stockyards. There are
ninety-nine head of horses. with three
colts, the animals being the property
of c. A. King. They were loaded at
EIko and were consigned ~ Kansas.
for the markets of the Sunflower state.
The men in charge said it was dark
when the wreck happened, and when
they got out to the piled-up cars they
found horses and pieces of horses in
every conceivable shape. They broke
open cars and released the stock, driv
ing them back to a loading point.
About forty head were killed, all on
account of one ornary, perverse cayuse
which persisted in raising trouble, and
not knowing when he had enough of ii
until he got the end door out of car.
He was evidently a genuine hobo
lacking in good horse sense-and want
ed to ride on the brakebeam.
The company will pay for the lost
stock, which was probably worth about
$15 per head.
