TRADE WITH CANADA.
Dur Northern Nefghbor the Best
 Customer We Have.

Dur Northern NefEhbor the Best
 Customer We Have.
 WASHINGTON, April 14.-The Unit ed States enjoys more of Canadian trade than the rest of the world put together. Attention is directed to this fact in that portion of Commercial Re lations of 1901," now in press, which deals with United States trade with Canada, an extract of which is given out for publication by MT. Emery, chief of the bureau of American commerce. 1t is pointed out that so closely allied are trade conditions in this country and Canada that prosperity or depression in the United States immediately finds echo in the train of our northern neigh bor.
 lead in the matter of goods sent into the Dominion, and from that year for ward, with but slight interval, this country has steadily heightened the gap. 1t is not as widely realized as 1t should be, says the report, that Canada is the best customer we have, except ing only Great Britain and Germany. Consul General Bittinger, at Montreal, in report on the subject says:
 ."The United States does more busi- ness with Canada than the whole of South America, as much as with Gen. tral America, Mexico and the West h. dies together and nearly as much as " ith Africa, Asia and Oceanica."
 Canada's total importation for con- sumption in the last fiscal year amount. ed to $1S1. 1.23S, GOO. Imports from the United States reached the splendid fig ure of S110, ,4S5, ,o0O, an increase of some $500, ,0OO over the preceding year.
 Consul Shepard, at Hamilton, in his report calls attention to the interesting fact that. the big dry goods houses of Canada send their milliners and mo- distes to New York several times year to observe and copy styles and have practically turned theIr backs on the European modes formerly so popular.

strizrers nafx rniunction.

KANSAS CITY, April 14.-Striking journeymen bakers have disregarded an order issued by Judge John Henry of the circuit court restraining them from interfering with the business of Warnekes Baker, and one of them went so far as to throw the courts order into the street when a deputy served it. What course Judge Henry will take remains to be seen.

The Losers Believe That All Their
 Birds Were Doned.

Unionville, April 14-A coekfight took place early Saturday morning in the town of Burlington about a mile and a half from here. Large delega- tions of sports arrived here Friday night. The Hartford crowd came early by trolley and those from Southington, Meriden, Bristol and Plainyille came in hacks and carriages. Unionville and Collinsville birds were against South ington. The home birds were so well trained and in such good shape that local sports were full of confidence and backed their birds to win. Tn con- sequence they lost heavily. The main was for $200 side and Southington took four out of seven and won the prize, besides scooping in several side bets. There was grumbling among the losers, as judging by the poor fight put up by the vanquished birds, it was suspected that there was foul play and that the birds were doped.
