ARMS FOR CHINA.
Statement of Munitions of War Sold
the Orient by Uncle Sam.

New York, July 28-A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
In view of the circular of the secretary
of the treasury to customs Officers on
the Pacific coast in regard to the ex-
portation of arms and munitions of war
to Asiatic countries, the following Off
cial statement obtained from the treas
ury bureau of statistics today will be of
general interest:

powder and cartridges and other ex-
plosiveS from the United States to
China Hong Kong and Japan the six

Hong Kong 1895
No gunpowder has been exported from
the United States to China, Hong Kong
or Japan since 1897. China took nearly
twice as many firearms from the United
States in the last six months of 1889 as
she did in the preceding fiscal year, and
about four times as many as she did in
1896 or 1898. Hong Kong took nearly
as many in the last six months of 1899
as it did in the twelve months ended
June 80, 1899, and nearly three times as
many as it did in 1897. 1t is strongly
suspected that a good many of the fire.
arms exported to Hong Kong found
their way into the hands of the Filipino
insurgents. The total exports of fire.
arms and munitions of war to ASiatic
countries from the United States cut a
small figure as compared with similar
exports from Europe to the same coun-
tries. For example. in the last annual
report of Consul RagsdaIe of Tien Tsin
dated October IL. 1885, the following
statement is made:
within the last three months Ger
man firms have sold to the Chinese gov
eminent some 200, 900 stands of firearms,
with accompanying munitions of war.
The prices paid and patterns furnished
have not been made public, but it is re-
ported that the guns are very inferior
in quality. Evidently our gun manu-
facturers have not felt it worth while
to keep an eye open in China"

Executive Committee 70 Negotiate
with Company and Make Final
Settlement.


St. Louis, June 16.--By practically
unanimous vote the striking street
railway union men decided Friday to
accept the new proposition presented
by their executive committee and to
empower the executive committee to
settle on the basis Of the clause re-
garding reinstatement without refer
ence to the union. This action was
brought about through the influence
Of Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, who
arrived in st. Louis Thursday night
and was present at the mass meeting
which was held at the West End coli
scum Friday morning. A new plan of
settlement is, therefore, now in the
hands Of the executive committee. 1t
varies but little from the other propo-
sitions, except in the paragraph which
provides for the reinstatement of the
men. Heretofore, all plans have com
templated the reinstatement of all the
employees This matter is waived by
the new plan and the reinstatement
left open to arbitration, After the
meeting had adjourned President
Gompers intimated that arrangements
for opening negotiations with the
Transit company were already under
way.
At $3.50 O'Clock the new proposition
was presented to Judge Henry S..
Priest, attorney Of the Transit COM
pany, who took the matter under adj
visement and said the company would
return its answer to-day.
President Gompers said after the
meeting:
IT came to st. Louis on peace mis-
sion. am most DESTROYS of settling the
strike, and the plan which / submitted to
the union this morning, leaving the mat
ter of reinstatement of the men to arbi-
tration, will; l hope. be productive of re-
suits I believe that there are plenty of
fair-minded men in st. Louis who viii act
on committee of arbitration and bring
about results satisfactory to both sides"

r. @. Dun & Co, in their Weekly Re-

clining prices Is never wholly agreeable to
business men whose stocks on hand are
losing part of their value. Yet there are
times when return to the highest pros
peFlty in business Is not possible except
through REIMBURSEMENT OF prices. The
highest prosperity the country had ever
reached, prior TO the panic, was in 1882,
with prices averaging not quite % per
cent of their average In 1860. After
great depression for several years the
highest point reached with last years
recovery was so per cent? in March,
but the gradual yielding has already re-
