OUR TRADE WITH CHINA.
About one-Fourth the Exports Go to
Newchwanp

Apparently about One-fourth of the ex-
ports from the United States to China Ill
timately reach the port of Newchwang the
treaty port through which northeastern
China, including Manchuria, receives most
of its foreign merchandise This is the
conclusion of the treasury bureau of sta
dstfcs after a careful study of the statis
tics of the imports of China as presented
by the annual Yellow Book. entitled Mari
time Customs of China; Returns of Trade
and Trade Reports for the Year 1901
The Chinese customs reports do not in
dictate the country or origin of the articles
imported, except in few articles. -Four
articles are specifically named as of Ameri-
can production, viz, American drills, Amer
lean jeans, American sheetings and A1neri-
can oil. These four articles, however, ap-
parently form a very large proportion of
the imports into Newchwang of American
products.
The following table presents the value of
American drills, jeans, SheetingS and kerO-
sene oil imported into Newchwang in each
year from 1856 to 1901, the very small figure
for the year 1900 being. of course, due to
the war conditions which existed at that

Mr.. Kappler's Valuable Compilation.

The government printing office has just

by direction of Congress by Charles j.
Happier, clerk to the Senate committee on
Indian affairs. The volumes contain every
treaty made by the United States. with the
Indians and all laws, executive orders and
proclamations relating to the Indians up to
December l, 1902, together with statistics
ftribes, trust funds, etc The commits
Sioner of Indian affairs in his annual re-
ports has urged for some years that such
a compila ton be made, for the reason that
the laws and orders relating to the Indians
were scattered through great number and
variety of public documents. making 1t ex-
ceedingly difficult to be sure that one had
before him all legislation on any given
question relative to the Indians The pres
ent compilation Is indexed carefully, and
in it's general arrangement follows the form
of the statutes at large.

Refuses to Pay Award.

The state Department has been advised
by Minister Merry that the Salvadorean
congress has refused to pay the award of
the arbitration In the case Of Ell Triunfo.
an American corporation which secured a
Judgment Of more than $500, 900 against
Salvador on account Of the vitiation of its
franchise. Moreover, Mr.. Merry adds. the
congress has adjourned The incident is
likely to prove annoying to the State De-
partment. which dislikes extremely to be
placed in the attitude Of coercing so tiny
a state as Salvador. while feeling bound by
larger interests to uphold the principle of
arbitration and defend the award of the
body which sat in Washington under the
presidency Of Sir Henry Strong.
