States from Germany, and foodstuffs
and manufacturers materials form the
chief features of our exports to Ger
many. Sugar, chemicals, cotton manu-
factures, silk manufactures, leather
manufactures. toys. earthen, stone, ana
ehinaware. wool manufactures, iron and
steel manufactures. and cement are the
principal items in our imports from
Germany; while raw cotton, corn,wheat,
flour, pork and beef products, mineral
oils. tobacco, oil cake and meal. naval
stores, wood and d'manufactures thereof.
and copper form the chief features OF
our exports to Germany. In few
classes of manufactures, how
ever. notably iron and steel, the eX-
ports to Germany are considerable, but
as above indicated. the bulk of the
movement from the United States
to that country are composed OF the ar
ticles required in the United States for
food or manufacturing and which 1t
does not produce in sufficient quantities
at home: while, on the other hand. the
bulk of the imports into the United
States from Germany are foodstuffs not
produced at home or the higher grades
of manufactures, such as sugar, wines,
coffee, rice, chemicals, gloves, laees and
knit goods, wooden dress goods, silk
dress goods. cutlery. porcelain and CHI

The commerce of the United States

other country of the world except the
United Kingdom. Our imports from
Germany in the fiscal year 1901 were
larger than those of any preceding year.
with single exception. Our exports to
that country in 1901 were larger than in
any preceding year. and our total COM
merce with Germany in 1901 was larger
than in any earlier year. This COM
merce has grown from less than 80 mil
lion dollars in 1865 to nearly 300 mil
lions in 1901; the total for 1901 beinss
practically ten times as great as that of
1865.
An examination of the details shows
that the percentage of increase in i'm

HEIZER'S FIRST CASE.
Hears Contest For 1900 Acres of
Pottawatomie County Land.

Judge Robert Heizer heard the evil
dence in his first contested case at
Westmoreland. The evidence was closed
Saturday night. The case is between
j. o. Benton and A. J. Beaky, over the
title to 1000 acres in Pottawatomie
county.
Judge Heller succeeded Judge Thomp-
son by appointment of Governor Stan
ley. The case had been commenced be-
fore Judge Thompson and had to be
gone over before Judge Heizer. He will
come to Topeka to hear the arguments
in the case as Westmoreland is not
easily reached and all the attorneys can
come to Topeka easier than to travel
overland 20 miles to Westmoreland.

RURAL DELIVERY.
Contract Plan Under Debate in
the House.

Washington. March 3.-Under the or
der made last week the house today
went into committee of the whole and
entered upon the consideration of the
Dill to classify the rural free delivery
service and substitute the contract for
the salary system for rural carriers.
1t was arranged that general debate
should be equally divided between the
friends and opponents of the measure,
tne time In favor of and Mr. Swanson
Va-) against the bill. The former, in
opening the debate, declared that in his
opinion the question involved was of
more Importance than any which would
come before the present congress. Upon
the solution would depend whether the
rural free delivery service would cost
ultimately 60 or 20 million dollars per
annum. The rural free delivery service
up to this time he said had been a po-
litical one, and it had given many MEM
bers OF congress their first taste of the
sweets OF public patronage.
He traced the history and rapid
growth of the service and it's cost, de-
claring that it was the most extrava-
CANT In the public service At the in
ception the carriers received $500 per
annum. They now received $500. If the
salary system was continued they
would eventually receive $500 or 5000. At
the present time $S5O.000 was being
spent for the supervisory force.
The bill was carefully drawn, Mr..
Loud said, to provide against the possi-
bility of recurrence of the star route
scandals. Only one contract could be
given to one man who must live in the
district where the route was located
and who must perform the service HIM
self.
IN THE SENATE
Washington, March 3.-Soon after the
senate met today bills were passed
changing the boundaries between the
southern and central districts of the
district courts of Indian Territory, pro-
viding for minimum punishments in
certain cases in Indian Territory where
Arkansas laws apply; to establish
marine hospital at Savannah, Ga, at
cost not exceeding $500, 900; authorizing
the appointment of Allen V. Reed, a
captain, on the retired list of the navy
as a rear admiral; to pay Flora A. Oar
ling $45,863 for damages on account of
her Illegal arrest and Imprisonment at
New Orleans in January, 1864; authoriz-
ing the Ell Dorado & Bastrop railway
company to construct and maintain a
bridge across the Ouachita river, in
Arkansas.
At 2:30 p. m. Mr.. Frye began a speech
on the shipping bill. He reviewed the
condition of American trade and point
ed out the small amount which was
carried in American ships.

FACULTY TAKES A HAND.
Washburn Teachers Will Look After
Baseball and Football.

The faculty of WaShburn college will
hereafter look after the business con-

teams of the college.
Heretofore the students have had
complete charge of the finances of the
teams and occasionally when a team
closed a season deficit was left for the
team of the coming season to assume
When the baseball team was organized
for this spring it was found that the
football team which played last fall has
left as a remembrance debts unpaid for
which bills are being presented. 1t seems
that all debts might have been paid out
of the moneys taken in last season so
the faculty intends to have some older
head look after the business in the ca
pacity of auditor or some position of
that kind and see that the debts are
paid. This may also put stop to some
of the childish acts for which the Wash
burn football team was characterized
last season.

QUARANTINE CONTROVERSY
Controversy Over Hossfeld Case Set
tied by DIR. Lewis.


1t is likely that the two lawsuits COM
menced in police court by City Physi-
clan Judd will be dismissed, at the cost
of the city.
The charge against George V. Hoss-
field of violating quarantine regulations
will be dismissed because the ordinance
does not cover q case like that of Mr.
family will testify that they did not be-
lieve their children had scarlet fever,
and had no reason to believe that such
was the case. The city ordinances pro-
vide that Upon being informed by a
physician, or learning from any other
cause that any person in his or her
house is afflicted with any contagious
disease the said person shall notify
the board of health and have the house
quarantine
Mr. Hossfeld had no physician, and
did not have any reason to believe that
a contagious disease existed, therefore
he will probably escape all punishment
of the alleged violation of the ordi-
nanceS.
DIR. J. P. Lewis, Mr.. Hossfeld's physi-
clan, states that as result of his exam
ination last Saturday, he believes that
the sickness in the Hossfeld family was
scarlet fever.
The other lawsuit instituted by DR..
Judd was against DIR. F. H. Scholle. DR..
Judd claimed that DIR. Scholle had fail
ed to report a case of contagion prompt
ly. DR.. Scholle says that he had not
fully diagnosed the case, and could not
report positively on the nature Of the
disease any earlier than he did.
