OUR TRADE N|IH JAPAN
United States Making Rapid
Gains in Its Trade With
Nation.
Annual Returns Show Japan Is
Buying Products From
Uncle Sam.
The Increase Since 1892 Has
Been Little Short OF
Marvellous.

Special to Times -Republlcan.
Washington June 9.-1he United
States is making rapid gains in the
share which she furnishes of the inn
portations of Japan. The Annual Re-
turns of the Foreign Trade of the En-
pre of Japan" for the year 1901 has
just been received by the treasury bu-
reau of statistics. 1t shows that the
United States which in 1881 furnished
less than per cent of the imports of
Japan. supplied II per cent of those i'm
ports in 1901; and that the United
Kingdom. our chief rival in that trade,
which supplied over 50 per cent of those
imports in 1881 furnished but 20 per
cent of Japan's importations in 1901.
The total value of Japan's imports from
the United States in 1881 was 1,7S1, los
yen, and in 1901, 42,769,429 yen. The
total value of Japan's imports from the
United Kingdom in 1881 was 16,364,1 40
yen. and in 1901 was 50,575.TSS.
The United States now stands second
in the list of non-Asiatic countries in
the imports of Japan, and falls but a
few thousand yet below India, the only
Asiatic country which ranks with the
United States in the imports of Japan.
Comparing 1901 with 1892 the growth
of the principal countries of the world
in the imports of Japan are shown by
the following table:

legal and logical correctness of the
comptroller's holding. but it is the law
for the time being, and as it has added
nearly quarter of "A million of dollars
to the treasury of Iowa, our citizens
will rather applaud his action, and not
be too insistent upon the logic of the
matter
The court of claims took the ground
that the government was under obiga-
lions to repay to the state whatever in
terest it necessarily paid out Thus
when the state of Iowa borrowed $500,
coo for twenty years, and some time af-
terward the United States repaid to
Iowa 100000, it was the duty of Iowa
officials to have placed that 100000 out
at interest. so that when the twenty
years had elapsed, it would have had
the principal and would also have paid
the yearly interest from the interest it
had received from the sub-loan.
OF course Iowa not being in the
business, this was not
done and was not done by any state.
New York and Pennsylvania, how
ever. have settled upon the old basis
and therefore have no recourse. They
have receipted in full and in such cases
the matter cannot again be opened up
for consideration.
1t is understood that officers of these
states are very sore over the recent de-
and it is quite likely some
action will be taken with a view to ov
the technicality which keeps
them from driving with Uncle Sam the
same kind of bargain that Iowa did.

THE LIVESTOCK REVIEW.
Cattle Supply Measer and Prices Az
eraqed Somewhat Higher.

Chicago, June .-Cattle-Instead of
the expected run of 10000 or more, only
about 1850 were marketed today,
against 5000 last Monday. After last
weeks small receipts today's supply
locked very meager and buyers took
hold freely from the start. Prices We're
stronger for all desirable offerings, and
the better class of cattle averaged 10
cents higher.
sHogs-The supply today was on
liberal scale, some $1,000, against 1914
last Monday. These liberal receipts
failed to weaken the early market, as
there was strong demand, and in
stead of ruling lower prices advanced
about cents.
Sheep-Receipts today were unex-
pectedly heavy, being in the neighbour
hood of 10000, against 11,349 last Mon
DAY. Posting of these big receipts
caused an unsettled market and heavy
sheep sold off dime, lambs selling at
last weeks late decline.
