REACHING FOR sl.500,OO 900.
THE PROMISE OF SENSATIONAL RECORD OF
EXPORTS THIS YEAR.

Washington, March II CSpeciaD-Exports from
the United States continue to increase and the
fiscal year 1901 destined not only TO break all
records but perhaps touch the billion and half
line. For the twelve months ending with February
the total 81 4se sS5 and for the eight months
OF the fiscal year is N.ol5lS5.S74 Thus the record
presented by the February statement Of the Treas
ury Bureau OF Statistics at least suggests billion
and half for the fiscal year 1891. since the
twelve months ending with February are less than
100000 below that sum. and the eight months OF
the fiscal year sl5.e0"o0 above the proportion
which eight months OF the twelve included in the
fiscal year would be called upon TO furnish Of
s.. .500O50ce) total.
No eight months period in the history Of Amer
ican export trade shows large a total OF ex-
ports the eight months ending with February.
1901 The total exports during that period are. as
above indicated. A.0l51s5.57 against sSl9.4734H in
the corresponding months OF last year. and $02,

ing thus increased more than 30 per cent in five
years

ports over imports. shows greater increase.

in eight months OF the fiscal year 1896 No eight
months period In the history OF this countrys
port trade has shown large exports s large
an excess of exports imports that ending
with February 1891. and no twelve months period
large an excess OF exports over imports as the
twelve months period ending with February, 1901.
on the import side the figures are also satisfac
tory The imports of February. 1901. are nearly
100000 less than those of February. 1900. and
those for the eight months ending with February
are So, 0o.co below those Of the corresponding
months of the preceding year. while those Of the
twelve months ending with Febrl ary 1901 are also
slightly below the twelve months ending with Feb
ruary 1909. The total imports in the eight months
ending with February were s522 $50 $50 against s05
253.5H In the eight months of the preceding fiscal
year. and s54l l94.s33 in the eight months ending
with February. 1896 Thus the imports of the eight
months period show I'm the five years a decrease
OF about s200ocoO. while the exports show an in

When nearing Buffalo Bluff the two cars were
discovered TO be on fire. At the time of the
discovery of the flames they had gained such
a headway that it impossible tc extinguish
them, and the train to Buffalo Bluff

INDUSFRI4L CRISIS ~ JAPAN.
LACK OF CAPITAL PARALYzING DEVELOPMENT

Yokohama Feb. %. via San Francisco. March IL
The business depression continues and predictions
are freely made OF a general crash among Japanese
firms and industrial enterprises There does not
exist here. however. the general financial condition
which leads To panics. business being conducted al
most exclusively on cash basis, while the credit
system Is almost unknown. The difficulty les i'm
the absolute lack OF capital wherewith to carry
the great scheme OF industrial development initi-
ated after the ChinO-Japanese IL is beginning
to be realized that Japan should have used in this
direction the Chinese indemnity. instead of expend
ing it for increased armament A curious paradox
exists. Owing to its habits of economy Japan is
relatively OF the richest nations but now IL is
in the depths OF poverty with its efforts at indus
try brought almost to n complete standSti0.
The remarkable steadiness of foreign stocks In
the ports in spite of the general depression
is noticeable Dividends Of from TO II per cent
keep steadily up TO the mark, while Japanese in
Vestment enterprises divide still larger profits.
The Chinese situation Is always. and naturally.
the theme of interesting comment. IL is noticeable
that the native papers are Thoroughly in accord
with the American policy. There is hardly point
in the whole course of the United States dealings
since the outbreak which this nation has not wholly
