MAKE A GREAT RECORD
TRADE FIGURES of THE COUNTRY
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR.
Exports for Eleven Months in Excess
of Those of Preceding Twelve
Imports Much Larger.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE commerce
of the United States in the fiscal year
which ends with this month will by far
exceed that of any preceding year; its ex-
ports will surpass those of any earlier year
by more than $50 OOO, 900, and its exports of
manufactures will exceed those of any pre-
ceding year by more than $75,OO0,0O0 Its
imports, owing to the demands of the
manufacturers of the country for foreign
raw material for use in their industries
will be large. Raw silk, manufactured
fibers, crude rubber, hides and skins, pig
tin for use in tinplate establishments
cabinet woods and the finer grades of cot
ton and the coarser grades of wool, all
show a large increase as compared with
preceding years. The value of unmanu-
featured silk imported will be nearly so
per cent. in excess of that of the preceding
year, and more than double that of the
fiscal year 1897. Raw cotton shows an in
crease in quantity of so per cent. over 1899;
manufactured fibers an increase of %
per cent over 1892 and 100 per cent. over
1895; and hides and skins show an increase
of Is per cent. over 1899, and so per cent
over 1898.
1t is on the export side, however, that the
year makes its greatest record. The total
exports for the eleven months of the year
amount to 1885, 214534, and should the June
figures prove as large those of May.
which were just received, it would bring
the total up to 81. 400 100000, or s173, 600 coo
greater than the banner year 1892
AS to the details of this wonderful year
every class of articles shows an increase.
Manufactures, as already indicated, will
show an increase of more than seventy-five
million dollars; products of agriculture will
show an increase of nearly fifty million
dollars: products of the mine, an increa se
of nearly ten million dollars: those of the
forest about an equal sum; fisheries are
two million dollars larger than last year.
and the miscellaneous class shows a
marked increase. Probably the largest IN
crease is in manufactures of iron and steel.
though cotton will show considerable in
crease owing to the marked advance in
rrice.

ROUNDUP OF SENTIMENT.


Associated Press Telegram
PHILADELPHIA, June 1.-THE Mass
achusetts delegation perfected it's organize
ton to-day, and also took steps to get into
direct telephone communication with Sec
rotary Long to ascertain his wishes con-
corning the vice presidential situation
This last move was regarded as rather In
significant. The delegation is to a man
strongly favorable to the secretary, and il
was believed that cooperation could be
secured with the delegations of Maine.
New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut and
Rhode Island, so as to secure the prac-
tically solid vote of the seventy-eight New
England delegates. So many candidates
and possibilities were in the air. however
that a committee consisting of Messrs
Shaw. Murray and Rockwell was chosen to
| ascertain Mr.. Longs wishes as to the
presentation of his name. 1t was supposed
he was at Washington and could be
| reached by long distance telephone but
later it developed that he was at his sum-
mer home at bingham. Mass. where II
| was hoped TO communicate with him later.
The delegation was also divided into CON-
mittees which started on canvasses in be-
half of the Long candidacy.
The West Virginians are fully deter
| mined to present one of their senators as a
vice presidential candidate. Senator Scott
first proposed boom for his colleague, Mr.
Elkins. but to-day strong Scott senti-
| ment began TO manifest itself at the West
Virginia headquarters. The delegation at
least wants to place one of them in nomi-
nation and compliment him with the
States vote. After that there is no definite
choice thus far, although the tendencies
are toward Roosevelt or some other East
ern candidate.
The Michigan delegation arrived at the
Walton. and opened headquarters this
| evening. d. VI. Ferry, of Detroit, who is a
candidate for the nomination for Governor
OF Michigan. was with the party. and said
that the delegation had not decided who to
support for the vice presidency. There was.
however. a strong sentiment among the
Michigan men for Dolliver.
| The Nebraska sentiment has developed
( quite strongly IN favor of Senator Fair
| banks as a vice presidential candidate, and
such influential members of the delegation
as Senator Thurston and Editor Rosewater
regard the Indiana man as particularly
strong for the place. In this connection a
movement is on foot to secure cooperation
between a number OF Western States. In
Guiding Nebraska. and a meeting may be
