Exports of United States Agricul-
tural Products

WASHINGTON, April 6.-The Depart.
ment of Agricultural has issued state.
ment of the foreign trade of the United
States in Agricultural products.
1t shows that during the fiscal year
1901 foreign countries purchased Amer
ican farm products to the value of $685..
OO0, 900. representing the largest agricul-
tural exports in the country's history
Com pared with the record for 1900 the
increase is over 800, ,OOO.0O

falling off when contrasted with the
trade of the year preceding. These i'm.
ported products We're valued at 1892.
900. 900. or $2s. 900. 900 less than in 1900.
The excess of exports over imports was
$3.50. .OOO.0 900. These figures do not in.
clude trade with Hawaii and Porto Pico
statistics of which were not to be had.
In 1900 the agricultural imports from
Hawaii and Porto Rico were valued at
about $24. .O00. 900 and the agricultural
exports to those islands at about IS, ,O0O,-
600.
The leading items among agricultural
imports for 1901 were sugar. coffee, hides
and skins. silk. vegetable fibers, fruits
and nuts. tobacco. wool. tea. wines, CO.
Goa. vegetable oils. distilled spirits. seeds.
vegetables and spices. their combined
value amounting to about $685., ,OOO, 900.
During 1901. for the first time in sew
eral years. the exports of cotton from
this country exceeded in value the ex-
ports of breaGstuffs. After cotton and
breadstuffs. which held the first and sec.
ond places, meat products formed the
largest item. Additional exports of
leading importance. as named in the
order of their value, were hive animals,
tobacco. vegetable. oils, oil cake. oil cake

Some That Will Soon Fall i'm
Maryland.

The Federal appointments in Mary.
land will not. it is now stated. be made
until after the extra session Of the Leg.
islature has met and adjourned.
The place over which there is the
greatest contention is that of Collector
of Internal Revenue. 1t is asserted by
those who ought to know that the ap-
pointee will come from the First Con.
gressional district and will be either
Col. Wilbur F. jackson, brother of the
Congressman; Benjamin F. Parlett. of
Talbot county. or A. Lincoln Dryden.
of Somerset Co. Congressman Mudd.
it is said. is also anxious to have the
naming of the place If the wishes Of
Congressman jackson are consulted. his
brother will get the position.
The friends of Collector Stone assert
that he is sure of reappointment and
that the entire Mary land delegation in
Congress is back of him. At the same
time there has been considerable talk of
Mr.. Stevenson A. Williams in connec.
tion with this position. and it was urged
that he had the strong support of both
Mr.. Bonaparte and Mr.. John @. Rose.
Mr.. Williams is. however. not a candi.
date for the place. and his boom ema.
mates entirely from his friends.
The reappointment of MIR John O.
Rose as District Attorney is practically
assured by his personal relations with
the President.
As before stated in The Sun. Chair.
man Phillips Lee Goldsborough. of the
Republican State Central Committee,
will in probability be naval officer. sue.
ceeding MIR. Gable. recently appointed.
This is on the supposirion that Mr.
Gable will resign. There are some of
his friends who declare that he will not
resign. but will insist upon either serv.
ing his term out or being removed.
The sentiment in the delegation is
strong toward making provision for
ex- mayor Malster and it is said not to
be unlikely he will succeed Major Hen.
ry r. Torbert as local appraiser. The
surveyor of the port. it is claimed, will
come from the Second Congressional
district, and the name of Mr.. O. Ross
Mace is most prominently mentioned.
1t is generally believed Mr.. John F..
Langhammer will be the next United
States marshal. as Mr.. Wachter's enmity
toward Mr.. Airey will prevent his re-
appointment.
The Fifth district. it is said. will get
at least one of the plums TO be dis.
tributed.
