 Another belt, measuring about two inches, and the same width all around, presents curiously woven basket effect.

amounted to 5000. .451 .241, which is a
decrease as compared with May 30,
1902. of $13,012,3 ,332 This decrease is
accounted for by a corresponding in
crease in the amount of cash ON hand.
The debt is recapitulated ms follows:
Interest bearing debt, S931, ,010.340.
Debt on which Interest has ceased
since maturity. S1,2S0,S60.
Debt bearing no interest, 1895, ESQ.,

This amount. however does not in
clude $3.50. .570,0S9 In certificates and
treasury notes outstanding. which are
offset by an equal amount of cash held
for their redemption.
The cash in the treasury is classified
as follows:
Gold reserve. S150.O00. 900; trust
funds. SS30,579.0S9: general funds,

NEWSPAPER STATISTICS.
Report of the Census Bureau on Print.
ing and Publishing.

Washington. July 3.-The census bu-
reau has issued Its report on printing
and publishing In the United States
for the census year 1900 showing n
capital of 500. .517 .OT2 invested In the
22.312 establishments reporting for the
industry. The value OF the products
OF the industry is returned at $347, :
0J5,0J0.
A feature of the report is an extend
ed account of the operations of the AS
ISOLATED Press. showing the great de-
velopment OF news gathering methods
during the past two decades. Almost
the entire chapter of newsgntherlng
organizations is devoted to a history
and detailed description OF the work
OF the Associated Press, which the re-
port says was the leading organization
in 1890. and now is far in the lead
of the newsgathering organizations Of
the United States"
The report says the Associated Press
now has about 100 members, more than
half of which are afternoon dailies,
and serves about $500 daily and week
ly papers in addition. Most of the pa
pers served are In the United States.
but there are fifty or more in Canada,
Mexico. Cuba and Porto Rico.
In Its regular news service the Asso-
ciuted Press now uses o,34J miles of
leased wire by day and 20.467 miles
by night The nnnual revenues derived
from assessments levied on the news

tablIshments over sixty-three per cent.
We're owned by individuals, twenty per
cent. by partnerships and only seven
teen per cent. by corporations. The
total number of wage earners In the
industry had only increased ten per
cent. since 1890, but the value of prod
ucts increased twenty-four per cent.
There was n much greater increase rel
atvely among women wage earners
than men. OF the total value of prod
ucts advertising formed forty-three per
cent, subscriptions and sales thirty-six
per cent. and book and job printing,
Including miscellaneous products,
twcnty-one per cent.
ihe total circulation per issue of dai-
lies was enough TO supply one for
every five inhabitants, and of week
lies and monthlies one to every two
inhabitants. Over 1.250.OOO pounds of
paper We're used during 1900, of which
almost fifty-eight per cent. was con-
sumed for newspapers.
