The United Statesi Supplies Ten Per
Cent Of the Trade.

Four billions sof dollars is the estimated
annual value OF thes manufactures which
enter into the International commerce of
the world. OF this sum the united king
dom supplies ore billion dollars, or 25 per
cent; Germany supplies 20 per cent; France,
about IL per cent; the United States, 10
per cent. and Netherlands, about per cent.
Curiously. the nations which are the larg-
est exporters of manufactures are also
the largest impertersIof manufactures, this
being due In part to the fact that much
of the material which they use in manufac-
turing is produced in other countries and
imported In the first stage of manufacture.
while other manufactures imported are
composed or articles produced IN other
parts OF the world and not produced in the
countries in question. In the case Of the
ports $725. 100000 worth Of manufactures an
nually, $36, 10000 represents the value OF
copper. chiefly imported from the United
states in the form of pigs and bars. the
manufactures of silk, of which the material
IS not produced in the united Kingdom;
$6S,OOOOOO, wool. much of which Is imported
IN the nrst stage of manufacture; $01 OOo,-
W. FOODS and drinks, chiefly IN the hrst
stage of manufacture and $52, 600 600 leath-
er, which, after importation, becomes
material for use in manufacturing.
Expectation of manufactures exceeds i'm
portatfon of manufactures in the united
Kingdom, Germany. France, the United
States. Austria-Hungary, Belgium and
Switzerland, respectively; while in all
other countries OF the world impor tatlon
of manufactures exceeds expectation Of
manufactures. Manufactures form so per
cent of the exports of Switzerland, IS per
cent of the exports of the united kingdom
and Germany. respectively; 81 per cent of
those of France; SO per cent of those OF
Belgium; 4S per cent of those of Austria
those
Al per cent Of those of Sweden, and 80 per
cent of those Of the United States.
Turning to the import side, 1t is found
that manufactures form 70 per cent of the
importations into Australia; So per cent CT
those into Argentina 81 per cent of the
imports of Canada; SO per cent Of those
of Japan; 80 per cent Of those of the
United States. and % per cent of those of
the united\kingdom and Germany, respect

The following table shows the total value
of manufactures imported into and ex-
ported from the principal countries OF the
world.

VIRGINIA POLITICS.
REPRESENTATIVE Glass Thinks the Pr'
marv Plan Will Continue.

Representative Carter Glass of the sixth
Virginia district has been in Washington
for several days looking after matters be-
fore the departments. When seen by Star
renorter and asked about the political out
look in Virginia. Mr.. Glass expressed the
opinion that the election of state senators,
which takes place this fall. will be rather
quiet. In speaking of the primary plan re-
GENTLY adopted by the democratic party and
the purpose of the legislature to legalize 1t
by the passage of either the Barksdale or
Keezeel bills, the Lynchburg congressman
said: ut is my opinion that the primary
plan will be allowed to stand until after the
elections of 1905, at any rate. There has
been a good deal of talk among the demo-
Gratis for state offices. but / hardly think
the party will go back on its own plan
without giving it fair trial. Such a trial
cannot be had until 1905. when governor,
lieutenant governor. United States sena-
tor and many important state officials will
be chosen. Under the new constitution
there are many officers to be elected by the
people that have heretofore been appointed
by the governor, which means that the
year 1905 will be one of the greatest po-
litical years in the history of the state.
Should the primary plan hold, 1 look for
one of the livelieSt struggles ever seen be-
tween the Martin ana montague Iactlons OF
the democratic party. There have been sew
eral changes of alignment since Governor
Montague was elected. and If he runs for
the Senate against Senator Martin the race
will be very close. There a number of
candidates for the governorship, but who
Is the strongest man l cannot say. 1t Is
my belief, however. that Representative
Claude A. Swanson is a stronger man to-
day than he was when he was defeated by
Montague. Swanson. after he lost the NOM
nation turned in and supported the demo-
cratic ticket vigorously. and that won him
many friends. I look for him to give a
good account of himself If he enters the
race"

said he would use his influence to in
struct the Prussian members of the
bundesrath to support the repeal of
the anti-Jesuit law so far as to per-
nit individual German and foreign
Jesuits to reside in Germany, but not
TO allow the founding of Jesuit chap
tiers, which, the chancellor believed,
the confederated governments would
not accept.
The chancellor's announcement caus-
ed a sensation among the members,
though it was not unexpected, in view
Of the cabinets negotiations with the
majority parties over the passage Of
the tariff bill. 1t was reported early
in December last that the government
had promised the leaders of the Cen
ter party that it would no longer op-
pose the readmission of the Jesuits
provided that party supported the gov
ernment's tariff bill.
Herr SPAIN, one of the Center party
leaders, after the chancellor had made
the statement thanked him in behalf
of his party.
Herr Won Vollmar, socialist. said the
socialists ASSOCIATED themselves from
the thanks because they believed the
anti-Jesuit law should be entirely re.
pealed.
Prof. Haase. national liberal. ex-
pressed regret at the governments
yielding to the Jesuits' exclusion The
majority of the reichstag undoubtedly
will support the readmission of the
Jesuits when the bundesrath submits
the necessary bill.

THE JOINT COMMITTEE
Miners and Operators Failed to
Come TO an Agreement.
1t Is yhe General Opinion That the
Mine Workers Will Not Hold Out
Very Strongly For Their
Original Demands.

Indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 3.-The joint
committee was in session all day with
out result. A subcommittee was ap.
pointed, which will consider the de-
mands of the miners and operators and
report as soon as an agreement is
reached. No disposition has been man.
ifested by either side to yield as yet,
but the appointment of the sub-com'
mittee is regarded as a sign that both
sides are DESTROYS of terminating the
struggle at the earliest possible op'
portunity President Mitchell says he
wants to get back to Philadelphia AN

sible, and it will be impossible for him

thing has been done regarding the
scale for the competitive district. Tho
subcommittee will meet again Tues
day morning to continue its work. 1t
it the general opinion that the miners
will not hold out very strongly for
their original demands and that the
operators will yield much more than
they have said they would. 1t is ex.
pected that some agreement will be
reached this week or that no agree.
ment will be reached at all. A discus
sion on the proposition Of the miners
occupied most of the day. 1t was stat
