OUR BANNER EXPORT YEAR.

For Every Dollar Spent Abroad We
Sold Two Dollars W orth.
Washington, April 24.-The fiscal
year Of 1893 was the banner year Of
the foreign trade of the United States,
our exports being the largest ever re-
corded for like period and our i'm
ports exceptionally small. According
to comprehensive report just pre-
pared by Mr.. Frank H. Hitchcock,
chief of the section of foreign mar
kets Of the agricultural department, the
total value Of our domestic exports
reached the enormous sum of $780,
291, 913, exceeding the record breaking
figures Of the preceding year by $17s,-
284310. On the other, handp the i'm
ports during 1898 were the smallest
since 1885, their value being 1915, 049,-
654, decline of $14S, $3.50, 1853 from the
figures of 1897. Broadly stated, for
every dollars worth of foreign mer-
chandise brought into the United
States two dollars worth of our pro-
ducts found market abroad. Our
domestic exports as compared with our
imports showed an excess of 1894, 242,-
259, or more than twice the excess for
1897, which was the largest previously
reported.
An interesting fact developed by the
report of Mr.. Hitchcock is the increase
in the exports of agricultural products.
being 1898 per cent of the total. or
$S5S,5O7 ,942, gain Of nearly rs per
cent over 1897 Exports of this class
also show greater gain proportion
ately than non-agricultural exports.

THE CONTEMPLATING GANG.


Other Arrests Expected. But the Of
f1cinls Are Reticent.
Philadelphia, April 24.-There are
no developments in the counterfeiting
plot which was unearthed in this city
last week. Chief of the Secret Service
Division John L. Wilkie, Captain of the
Secret Service William J. Burns and
United States District Attorney James
M. Beck went to Lancaster yesterday
afternoon and returned to this city
late last night. On their arrival here
each of them refused to say anything
about their visit to Lancaster. Each
of the government officials carried {,
small satchel, but it could not be learn
ed whether they contained counter
felt plates or not.
Rumors are still being circulated
that further arrests will be made, and
when the three officials were question:
ed they refused to talk about the mat
ter except to say that no additional
warrants had been issued. It is under
stood, however, that two warrants
have been issued for the arrest Of per-
sons unknown to any one but the
secret service people.
Although the secret service men will
neither affirm nor deny it, it, is be.
lieved that there is connecting link
missing between the counterfeiters and
Harvey X. hewitt, the ex-United States
district attorney, who was arrested on
the charge of attempting to bride one
of the secret service operatives. The
secret service men admit that Jacobs
and Kendig, the chief counterfeiters,
never met hewitt, and it is believed
that the man who worked between
them is the man they are looking for.
1t is also believed that this man is
prominent one.
1t is learned that something over
100000 cigars have been found by the
internal revenue officers in Pittsburg
bearing stamps issued by the Jacobs
firm at Lancaster.

An Alleged Indiana Boreia.

Terre Haute, Ind, April 24.-Dr. B.
E. Patton, physician who is known
throughout three states as a specialist
in the cure Of cancer, and who is the
proprietor of large sanitarium in
this city, is lying at the point of death
from what he claims is the effect of
arsenic and chloroform poison ad-
ministered by his wife. A sworn state
ment accusing his wife of poisoning
him was made by the dying man, who
requested that post rnortem exami-
nation of his body be made. Mrs.
Julia Patton, the accused woman, has
filed proceedings for divorce, and is
now at one of her farms near New
market, Ind. She has been married
four times, and is worth something
over 100000. No steps have yet been
taken to apprehend her.

A LiFebost Containing ths Macs and
Fourteen Men Brought In to st. Au.
sustine. Fla, After BufFeting the
waves For Forty-eiGht Hours.
st. Augustine, Fla, April 24.--Con-
siderable excitement was created here
yesterday afternoon by q small boat
out at sea giving signals Of distress.
Captain Allen Immediately went to it's
assistance in the yacht Baldwin. Upon
nearing the boat he found II to be tho
missing lifeboat OF the Morgan limo
steamer General Whitney. which foun-
dered north Of Cape Canaveral during
Friday night. Captain Allen trans
ferrsd tho sailors from their cramped'
quarters to his yacht and brought them
IN to Corbett's dock, where q large
crowd awaited them. Hot coffee and
food were furnished them at once upon
the boat. and the poor fellows fairly
banquetsd.
The story OF the disaster Is told by
Mate Mattson and his men was q
thrilling one. One Of the bulheads
sprung leak from the heavy seas
which were prevailing during the early
part Of Friday night. All hands were
ordered to the pumps and worked hard,
but the holds soon began to Ill, in
spite Of their efforts. The ofilcers and
mon realizing that the steamer was
settling fast and sure to founder, took
. to the two lifeboatS. Captain J. w.
Hawthorne and IL men went In the
first boat and were never again seen
by the remaining men. The captains
boat was upset while attempting to
land at Mosquito Lagoon House Of
Refuge on Saturday. The captain and
eleven men were drowned. The chief
engineer, assistant engineer, fireman
and one sailor were saved. Shortly
afterward, Mate Mattson and the bal
anee Of the crew, IA men, took to the
second boat. This was about mid
night. They had a compass and began
to row for shore. A strong wind was
prevailing, creating heavy sea, and
the men at the oars could make NO
Roadway.
All day Saturday the men tried to
approach shore, but could not even get
glimpse of 1t, and almost despaired,
when they found they had plenty Of
provisions, but no water. They spent
all Of Saturday night at the mercy of
the sea, which washed over their fra,l
boat frequently. Early yesterday
morning they sighted land, and with
redoubled energy, made strong from
desperation, they took their turns at
the oars. When near enough to tho
land they improvised flag with can
vas tackled to an oar, and 1t was then
that Captain Allen went to their
rescue.
The men when they landed were
drenched to the skin and almost fam
ished, but warm food soon revived
their spirits and they cheerfully mar
rated their experience. They will re-
main here until they receive instruc-
tions from New York. Besides Mate
Mattson, who conducted the party
through the rough trip, the survivors
are Charles Andy, H. Kerper, D. Jack
son, Louis Cook, George Cook, H.
Louise. G. L. Olson, Ed Seablum, Pat
rick O'Neil, N. Larsen. J. Nelson,

of the time without water
