FOREIGN COMMERCE.
A Record-Breaking Year in Exports
Attests the Countryss Growth.

ReCorG-Breaking ear in Exports
Atheists the Countryss Growth.
The foreign commerce IN merchandise
for the fiscal year 1901 showed a decrease
of SIS, T69, 019 in imports and an increase
of sos. 2S1, so9 in exports when compared
with the preceding year. Comparing the
figures of 1901 with those of 1891, there is
a decrease of s21, IA, OBJ in imports and
an increase or $500, 2S4, 1s1 in exports. The
imports of the year 1851 were sS23, iT2, 165
and the exports 81, 4ST, T64s91, making the
excess Of e1narts over IMPORTS 1885,, 59z, S26-
Both the total exports and the excess OF
exports over imports were greater in 1901
than in any preceding year in the history
of our commerce. comparison Of the
commerce Of the year with that of other
countries shows that our exports Of de-
mestic merchandise in 1901 exceeded those
of any other nation. The exports of do
nestle merchandise of the year ended
June 80, 1901, amounted to 8. 460, 1872, sos,
against 81. 3S9 s2S S97 from the United
Kingdom, $109S, S74, 900 from Germany
and $S0S, $50 coo from France.
The record of exports OF manufactures
in 1901 showed slight decrease, amount
ing to S21, 696, 500, when compared witt
1900, but an increase Of $T2.562. $50 ovel
1899, and exceeded the Imports Of manu-

Secretary Gage summarizes the eountry's
chief financial need as follows:

judicious measures to eliminate such eie-
ments Of financial weakness as experience

Louisville, KY, Nov. 12.-Newell G.
Rathbun, who was supposed to have
been dead in a Jeffersonville Qnd.)
hotel last Thursday, was arrested In
Louisville yesterday. According to
Rathbun, the corpse which was
shipped to Little Rock for burial as
the body of Rathbun, was the body Of
w. l.. Teneycke. Rathbun Is held as
fugitive from justice.
The arrest was made on information
from Sergeant Skinner, Of the United
States recruiting station. Rathbun
enlisted under the name Of Lou Root,
Detroit" Sergeant Skinner had read
the story of the Jeffersonville case,
and circumstances connected with the
new recruit aroused his suspicious.
One of these was the fact that the
man he'd on government suit OF un-
dsrwear. Rathbun said he had
bought the garments from a soldier
friend. Another circumstance was his
knowledge Of army affairs about Lit
tie Rock. He passed the examination
and enlisted Saturday.
At the detectives office Rathbun
was put through the sweating process
and under pressure made the follow
ing statement, according to his in
quisitors:
MY name is Newell c. Rathbun
and my home Is in Little Rock, Ark.
Several months ago I deserted from

Next FaIi-.Anotter
Charge.

From a Staff Correspondent.
Columbus, Nov. 12.-Taking the re-
turns from counties which are tabu-
lated in the office of the secretary of
state as basis 1t is evident that the
Frohibitionists have again fallen short
of the number of votes necessary to
get on the official ballot without re-
sorting to petition. State Chairman
Ashenhurst's ante-election predictions
concerning the showing his party
would make were very roseate, but the
result falls away below expectation.
The large number of petitioners the
party secured in Stark county inspired
the belief that something decisive
would be forthcoming for its candi-
dates there but the returns reveal the
reverse to be the case The Prohibit
ton state committee raised something
over $1,000 for campaign purposes,
much of which was raised in Stark
and Columbiana counties.
WILL NOT LOSE.
Another charge of embezzlement
mas been made against John M. Null
ford, lately an officer of the American
insurance Union. Four charges now
confront him. He has entered pleas OF
not guilty tc each one of them. He is
now out on bond, which was increased
from $4,000 to $4,000. 1t is stated the
financial standing of the organization
will not be seriously affected by Null
lords alleged shortages. This will be
reassuring news to the eastern Ohio
members.

A Frisly Farm Horse Tossed q
Man From the Rural
District.

Joseph Houser a farmer residing
about eight miles north of the city,
came to town Wednesday morning
with a load of dressed turkeys for
sale. AS he was driving down Erie
street on his way to the square, one
-6f the bolts holding the shafts to the
light wagon, in which he was driving,
broke and allowed one end of the
shafts to fall to the ground. This
frightened the horse, which immedi-
ately started on run. @
Houser held on for a short distance
but was thrown out when In front
of Schraders meat market on Erie
street alighting on his head and should
ers in the mud. The frightened ami
nal was finally captured on Exchange
street The harness was quite a bit
damaged as also was the wagon, tho
horse sustaining but few scratches.
Houser was not hurt but was covered
with mud from head to foot as re-
suit of landing in the middle of the
road.
