HUCONA PASSES UP
SOUND TO CARTERET
Big Vessel on Which the Japanese
Was Employed arrives III Port
Covered With Ice.

The steamship Hugona came up the
bny this morning, bound for Carteret.
This is the steamship on which the
little Jap, who has just been acquitted
of killing mis- countryman, was en-
ployed.
The Hugona had q hard time of it
coming up this time, and those who
saw her say that she looks more like a
big iceberg than a steamship. After
coming inside the Hook the day be-
fore yesterday, it was necessary for
tho captain to put in at Stapleton to
give the crew n little rest and have a
few repairs made. The repairs were
made necessary by the hard weather.
Yesterday afternoon a pilot from this
CITY went to Stapleton and this morn
ing the big boat passed up on her wav
to Carteret.

OUR INCREASE IN MANU-.
FEATURING EXPORTS

The figures showing the increased
volume of exports of manufactures are
gratifying in the extreme, and the
more so because while they are equal
ing and in some cases exceeding our
agricultural exports, they are not at
the same time displacing them. It is
true that our agricultural exports have
fallen off somewhat during the past
few months, but at the same time the
farmer is getting no less benefit from
his crops, either in the volume of his
sales or their value. During the past
year our home consumption of wheat
and wheat flour amounted in value to
five hundred and seventeen million dol
lars (s517, 200, OOO), which are the high
est figures on record. The farmer then
is benefited doubly by this increased
export of manufactures which brings
about a still larger home market for
his own products, and as the home
market is the best market and gives
the farmer the larger price, making his
sales more certain and giving him a
quicker return for his labor and invest
ment, the result is one which we may
all well like to continue. Writing upon
this point, the Springfield Republican
says:
"It is certain, however, that the ma
ton has entered upon new era in
regard to the export trade, where man
ufacturers will permanently take a
much more prominent place relatively
than ever heretofore. We are passing
rapidly from country predominantly
agricultural to one predominantly man
ufacturing. 1t is well that this should
be so. 1t is better to manufacture for
the outside world than to be its hewers
of wood and drawers of water, as it
were. The work is easier and more
profitable.
1.-The protective tariff in general
way has undoubtedly been powerful
agency in bringing about this great
change"
This indeed is a most open confession
for the Republican" to make. To &C.
knowledge that the protective tariff is
a powerful agency in bringing about
any good, must have been an admission
wrung from the economic editor in an
idle moment or possibly by his substi-
tute while away on his vacation. At
any rate, it is sign of the times when
the most powerful free trade paper in
the country admits that our exports Of
manufactures are not only gaining, but
that their gain is due to the operation
of our present tariff law, without any
qualification except that we might be
careful and not let that law "over-stay
its time of usefulness.

NAY INTERVENE.

There is growing belief prev
alent in Europe that intervention
will follow any deceive victory by
the japanese, If Port Arthur
should fall, for instance it is be-
lieved that King Edward would
at once offer his good offices and
attempt to check the bloodshed
through some settlement, by non
combatants, of the issue involved.
Just how the king will proceed
and how the diplomats will attain
their ends it is difficult to see un-
less Japan and Russia both change
their views decidedly.
Russia has all along contended
that no one should assist in the
final making of terms. Japan
has also not only insisted that
other nations must keep hands off,
but if she wins decisive victory
now after her series of successful
attacks she will still be more 10th
to risk the entrance Of any other
power into the councils Of the
wars conclusion.
Russia knows only too well the
result of foreign intervention, ana
Japan is fighting this war because
of her discomfort at the division
of spoils after she had won against
China.
Russia, with her Eastern navy
demorallzed and Part Arthur lost,
if it falls, will scarcely protest
overmuch, but Japan will resent
bittarly any ontside interference
just when victory is in sight. II
is hard to see, in such case, how
England can insist upon what hel
ally strongly opposes. If she does
and if, as English journal indicate
she will do SO for the purpose Of
insuring that Japan shall not be-
come too powerful, and the friend
ship between the two nations vii
not long continue.
Nevertheless, if the power
want to interfere and insist upor
settling the issues themselv1
probably neither protests, alliance
nor anything else will seriousl.
obstruct procedure. Japanes
Journals have been discussing villa
they would demand when victor,
was complete. Perhaps they ar
wasting their energies. Its quit
passible that they will again hav
to be content with what Europea,
nations graciously allow then

vided. Denver Times.
