Of Richard II. Davis against Matthew

lost in gambling, the tVFy returned a
sealed verdict in favor Of Davis for 50 900.
Davis recently confessed to embezzling
$4,000 OF the funds OF a Washington

He said that he had lost $4,000 Of the
money gambling. and commenced suit
against the gamblers for 1000, which
ne said he lost playing craps
At the trial OF the suit It was testified
by an electrician that he had been en-
plOyed by the gamblers to so arrange the
crap table that Il would be impossible
for the players to win. and that ne had
done so. thin copper plate was in
trOcuced under the green cloth Of the
table charged with electricity and so at

Marvellous Increase Re-
corded as to Imports
and Exports.
FORMER IN EXCESS, HOWEVER
Kaiser's Subjects Buy Lots of Finished
Manufactures From the United States.
Totals for the Past Thirty-fve Years
Prove Most Interesting.

The cordiaIity OF the relations be
tween the United States and Germany is
shown more eloquently than by speeches
and more forcibly than by the booming
OF cannon by the figures which show the
commerce between the two countries dur
ing the last few years. These figures
show that the commerce of the United
States with Germany exceeds that with
any other country of the world except the
United Kingdom. that our imports from
Germany in the fiscal year 1901 were
larger than those Of any preceding year,
with single exception: that our exports
10 that country in 1901 were larger than
in any preceding year, and that our total
CONNIE 'ce with Germany IN 1861 was
larger than in any earlier year. This
CONNIE zee has grown from less than $780,
100000 in 1855 to nearly S3O0. 0OO. 600
in 1867; or, TO be more exact. from
$2s,s7SS45 in 1865 to 1922. 226. 1923 in 1901,
the total for 1901 being practically ten
times as great as that Of 1865.
Imports Exceed Exports.
An eEar nation Of the details show
that the percentage or increase In i'm
ports from Germany has beer greater than
the percentage OF growth in exports to
Germany, the figures being: Imports into
the United States from Germany, in 1865.
s.. So, 743: in 1901. 500. AS. SOP On the
other hand. the exports from the United
States to Germany we're: In 1865, $50. 31j,-
102; in 1901. S191. $50. 427 Thus the i'm
ports into the United States from Ger
many are more than ten times as much
IN 1901 as In 1865. and our exports TO Ger
many about nine and one-haIf times as
much in ISe1 as in 1850.
