AMERICAN IMPORTS
Manufacturers Materials Formed
Large Part in February.

Washington, March 2s.-Manufactur-
ers' materials formed more than half of
the imports into the United States in
the month of February. This is the
first time in the history of our importa-
tions that manufacturers materials
have constituted more .han half of the
total imports. In 1882 the manufactur-
ers' materials formed $50 per cent of
the total Imports; in 1882, 34.2 per cent:
in 1902, 46.1 per cent, in the eight
months ending with February. 1903,
46.9S per cent, and in February, 1903,
51.3 per cent of the total imports into
the United States. Meantime importa-
tions as a whole have greatly increased
and sesm likely in the fiscal year. which
ends three months hence to reach, for
the first time the billion iollar line. Yet
the growth in manufacturers materials
has been even more rapid than the
general growth Of imports. as indicated

Germans See Wisdom Of Not Sending
North Atlantic Squadron to kiel.
Berlin, March 2S.-The decision of
President Roosevelt not to send the
United States North Atlantic squadron
to Kiel for the regatta week is accepted,
officially as being wise, tho Emperor
William much desired the presence OF

Of the case was that the visit of the
squadron to German waters would have
been considered by European cabinets
to be in the nature of friendly DEM

United States navy department was not
willing to enter upon a prolonged So

The Germans say however. 1t is not

the operators at the leading mines were
nearly all present in person. The in

1t has been decided by jn> sc at
Davenport that the cost Of sending in
sane persons to state hospital, in
Guiding the costs in the insanity pro-
ceedings and the railroad fare, must be
borne entirely by the county and not
by the estate of the insare person. This
is question on which the state Su-

expense to the counties. In only few
counties has the matter of compelling
estates to stand the expense been main

distinction has been made as to the
special brand of democrats to whom
the tickets have been sold, and republi-
cans may go il they choose. The array
of talent for the speaking has been
sufficient to attract a great many and
there is no doubt that 1t will be one of
the most notable events in the history
of the party in this state. Attempts
have been made by some democrats to
stir up trouble over the banquet, but
the banquet promoters have kept right
at it from the start and feel highly
pleased with the prospect. There ap-
pears to be some doubt as yet whether
or not Congressman Hearst, of New
York will attend, but he has been placed
on the program and it is believed that
he will be here. General Weaver has
signified his intention of coming and the
others are all assured. Ex-President
Stevenson has been invited and If he is
present he will be asked to speak.
The democratic state convention was
put off one week and the date fixed for
June "a. on account of the state uni

This was at the suggestion of Judge
Wade and Offers interested in the
state university.
Captain Hull is to speak before the
Republican club in Des Moines next
week. The meeting was arranged at
his special request and in order that he
may express his views on the tariff and
reciprocity question and the last ma
tional platform of the party. He also
arranged the program so far as it in
cludes an address by another. The
meeting will in fact be a starter for
the congressional boom of the captain.
