THE TRADE OF JAPAN.
Increasing Share of United States
in Her Imports and Exports.
Figures Taken from british Consular
Reports Show How This Conn
try Is Fast Taking
the Lead.

The growth of American commerce
with Japan, and especially OF Ameri'
can exports 10 that country. is dis
cussed ~ considerable length in /
recent number of the British diplomat
ic and consular reports, just received
by the bureau Of statistics at Wash
ington. The statement is in the form
of a report from \. II. Law, assistant
japanese secretary to her ~majesty's
legation at Toxic.
The rcTort discusses the foreign
trade o. Japan during the year 1897,
and after showing that Great Brit
aims imports into japan increased dur
ing 1897 10y about five per cent, and
that those from Germany amounted
to only eight per cen of the total in
stead of ten per cent ms in the pre-
vious wear. saws: The United States
has acquired n very largely increased
share of both the import and export
trade. the values of her imports and
exports having risen no less than 81
aud 81 per cent, respectively.
The table giving the total imports
into and exports from Japan by coun-
tries shows that the imports from the
United States increased l,024,s39
pounds, against 222,i3s pounds in
crease from Great Britain, 620.9l5
pounds increase from british India.
1O.43O pounds increase from Germany,
677.751 pounds increaSe from China
900 son pounds i%rcrease from Hong
Kong. and n decrease of 3Oi.0jl pounds
in the imports from France. II will
thus be seen that the increase in i'm
ports from the United States into
Japan was greater in 1897 than from
any other country.
While the relative growth of Japan's
imports from the United States shows
n very large increase in recent years,
the amount of exports from Great
Britain has increased by a larger total
value; hut il must be borne in mind
that the American invasion has only
Just commenced; that the ground has
been prepared for larger extensions
in the future. and that unless some un.
foreseen changes take place the tend
ency will be towards e"ncroachment
upon the trade hitherto belonging to
Great Britain.

Daring Deeds OF Modern Surgery.

In a recent address before a London
medical association DR.. l.. \. Weather
~, a prominent physician, aaid that il
a surgeon Of GO years ago could wake
from his everlasting sleep in this world
and find himself in one of the modern
operating theaters of q medical insiitu-
ton he would rub his eyes and stare
with utter amaZrmeEt al the daring
deeds of the modern surgeon; that "ho
would see the patient brought in al
ready unconscious of what was about Ia
be done; he would note the scrupulous
cleanliness which anti>eptic surgery
has taught w. in all the surroundings
of the room. the appliances Of the op-
Grating surgeon and his assistant; he
would, perhaps. see the abdomen opened
and its contents handled with the most
perfect confidence. and this TOR that
operation. never dreamed OF il his day
as being possible without instant death.
brought to a successful termination,
And woudc.n at would be JUST sable
DR.. Weath,rly thought the fault with
the modern yuuug operator in surgery
was that he was a little too prone to
use his knife a. Il mean of diagnosis,
without giving his powers of obserya'
tion Il chance to arrive AT a right con-
clusion. The address of the distin-
guished ply stefan has attracted wide
attention.-Leslie's Weekly.
