OUR TRADE WITH CHINA.
War With China Would Cause
Considerable Commercial Loss.

REPTBILC SPECIAL.
Washington. July s-"War with China

trade with that Empire"
This statement was made to-day b. Sec

For the time being American trade would
be destroyed because the merchant VIII not

there would be a special demand for wheat.

United States would have to meet the de-

THE total value OF these articles OF ex-
ports in 1898 was 81, es6. 81 The value of
wheat exports to China has averaged barely

other hand. the value of wheat flour export

Grave Filling Device.

A device for use in constructing
graves, the invention Of Henry D..
Cameron, Of Burlington, Iowa, is de-
signed to fill the grave with earth after
the coffin has been lowered. and tc
conceal as far as possible the actual
throwing Of tie dirt upon the coffin,
the most trying termination Of the
grave ceremony to the bereaved
mourners. 1t consists of receptacle,
with detachable sides and bottom, and
gate in the latter so arranged as to
be capable of being opened to allow
the contents to fall, The front is a
flexible curtain, extending from the
top to the gate, and designed to pre-
vent the earth within from being seen.
This receptacle is filled with earth
previous to tie ceremony and carried
to a convenient point. When all is
over and the grave is to be filled, the
receptacle is placed ever it, and the
gates opened, thus gently closing the
last sad scene in much more fitting
manner than the seemingly cold
hearted return Of the earth with a
spade.
