THE TRADE OF JAPAN.
That Nation Is Now Working TO Sup
ply Its own Wants.

1t is of considerable interest to those
who hope for an expansion of trade In the
Far East to observe the effort which Is
being made on the part of the East TO
supply Its own wants
On this line the British Trade Journal
recently published table showing the
export and import trade of Japan for the
years 1898 and 1899, giving the results in
Japanese yen. According to this table,
il for the purpose Of graphic illustration
we take 1000 900 yen as a unit of COM
parison, 1t appears that Japanese exports
for 1899 were to her exports for the next
previous years, as 2l4 is to 165, or % per
cent greater. On the other hand, her I'm
ports for the same periods were as 220 to
277. showing a falling off of imports of a
trifie over 20 per cent.
In other words II the result of an ex-
animation of Japanese figures for so short
a period can be relied upon as pointing in
any particular direction, II appears that
while Japan's internal resources so ex-
banded that for the year 1899 she needed
to purchase abroad over 20 per cent less
than during the previous year, she was
at the same time able to export about %
per cent. more.
So far as they go, these figures seem
to point to an extraordinary industrial
activity in Japan. and il would seem to
be only a question of the aggregate pro-
ducing capacity of the Flowery Kingdom
whether in the course of limited time she
will not only practically monopolize her
own domestic trade but whittle down to q
small point the trade which other manu-
featuring nations have with adjacent
countries.

GATES IN THE SHADOW OF JAIL.

Lovers of justice and decency must
have been considerably cheered by the
announcement that certain of the per-
sons who had found themselves poorer
by reason OF the operations OF Mr.. John
w. Gates were about to take legal pro-
ceedngs of a criminal nature against
him. This Indication that Gates legal
adviser was not well informed as
Gates had supposed him to be about the
New York penal code, or else that I'm
moments OF aleatory excitement Gates
had omitted to recur to his advice was
very welcome. If the penal code of this
state turns out to have foreseen and
provided for Gates the popular conf
dence in 1t win be much strengthened
New York Times.
Chairman John w. Gates. of the Amer
lean Steel and Wire Company, is threat
ened with criminal prosecution. There is
a point, II appears, where an outraged
law will intervene and demand an ac-
counting from gentleman who plays
fast and loose with his position as re-
sponsible head OF n great industrial cor
poration. And according to reports from
New York that point has been reached.
Chicago News.
The public would, be glad to see the
men who have played fast and loose with
investors properly punished, and that
only can be done by getting after them
individually. They are the ones who
have practiced deceit, and upon them
alone must the responsibility rest and
the punishment be visited. The great
majority of the people will be gratined
