SOCIETY IN EVIDENCE ..
Boxes Presented Brilliant Appear
ance During Shows Progress.

SThe committee showed great wisdom
in it's choice of cotors for the horse
show, for nothing could have furnished
more brilliant background for the
gathering Of twin city society than the
great white tent with it's gay stripes
and streamers OF red, and the req anu
white hangings for the boxes and prom
enade rail. It was unfortunate that it
was so cold last evening, for there was
too much frost in the air to enable
the women to remove their coats and
show their pretty gowns. Stunning
evening coats Of broadcloth and velvet,
with malines and lace hats IN all OF
smart appearance to the boxes. Many
of the women paid a pretty compl-
ment to the board Of managers by in
PRODUCING a touch of red or white IN
their costumes.
| One side of the huge tent had been
reserved for ST.. Paul and the other: for
Minneapolis, and there was much visit
ing back and forth, for the promenade
furnished an excellent place to obtain
nearer view of the horses, as the
men and women sauntered about to
greet their friends.

ports and exports there was an increase compared with corresponding period in the preceding year. Heavy exports of hemp and copra, offsetting heavy imports of rice, explained the increase during the period named, the imports were s26. 60l, ,610 against s2, 33S, 322, for 1902. The exports amounted to $23, 563, l2S, an increase of nearly four and one-half million dollars. The rice imports were the only ones that in creased, and there was a falling off in general trade, tue United States. losing 10 per cent and the United Kingdom 16 per cent, while Spain has only two thirds of the amount of her trade in 1902.
 United States exports increased from S7, 232, All to s9, 36S, O66, and the trade with Spain was practically the same, but small part of this arrived under the American flag and all but 5 per cent of the general trade of the islands is done in foreign bottoms.

OPENS CLOSED PORTS
The Conditions in Republic arc I'm
proving


 Washington-From Minister Bowen's reports it appears that conditions in Venezuela are reaching most satis- factory basis. He cables that by a decree just issued the government has opened the ports of Guanta, Sucre and Guiri, which have been closed for many months as result of the revo- lutionary disturbances. Mir. Bowen also reports that the Venezuelan gov ernment has just paid the overdue allotments of the Venezuelan mixed claims commission of 1890. This in stallment amounts to SIT, ,000 and is overdue between two and three years.
 The various arbitration committees which have been in session at Caracas for the past six months nearly all have completed their labcrs and it will be possi ble for the Venezuelan govern ment to begin the settlement of the claims allowed promptly on the an nouncement of the result of The Hague arbitration which will determine the order in which the claims are to be paid, whether on pro rata division between all the powers concerned or with preference to the blockading powers.

Vessel Has Rough Voyage

New York-Battered by heavy seas and with her captain and second off, cer injured by an enormous wave that swept over the lofty bridge, the steamer Lahn reached port last week after tempestuous voyage from Genoa, Naples and Gibraltar. She had very rough passage throughout, being under reduced speed every day. One giant sea knocked Captain Holke and Second Officer Glunde down, fracturing two of the captains ribs and bruising the second officer about the head. The bridge was damaged, stanchions bent and part of the rail carried away. The Italian steamer Sicilia, also from Italian ports, had a similar experience.

INTERVENTION IS JUsTIFIABE
San Domingo Rebels Enter Our Con-
 Sulate

Washington-The rebels in San Do- mingo have committed another breach of international law which, added to those preceding, are making up 8 formidable case that may justify the United States government in interven- ing to restore order and protect the property in the distracted island. Minister Powell reported to the state department that he received bslated advice from Jean Villaine, the vice consular agent at Samana, dated Feb ruary 9, to this effect: Insurgents entered our consulate at Samana with armed force and took two refugees out"
 The state department promptly com municated this information to the navy department with request that proper action be taken by the naval authorities to protect the United States consulate. This was promptly transmitted to Admiral Wise and it is the belief that he will not only protect the consulate but will demand the punishment of the perpetrators of this outrage; that if the provisional govern ment is not able to do this he will employ the United States naval force to chastise the insurgents.

Setback for Public Building

Washington-The item for ali in crease of appropriation for the site of the Los Angeles public building has been stricken from the report of the conference committee on the urgent deficiency appropriation bill. The house conferes would not agree and the friends of the measure were com pelled to recede. The report of the conference is drawn up but it has not yet been reported to the house. This probably ends the hope of solving in this way the public building problem. Representative McLachlan is not discouraged, however. He says he will try to get some action this session to forward the work.

MUST WAIT FOR INCREASE
No Provision Made in the Deficiency
 Bill

Washington---All differences be- tween the senate and house on the urgent deficiency bill were adjusted in the conference report agreed to by the house. The senate provision for the purchase of site at Los Angeles for a postoffice were stricken out, as were also the senate provision for sub- marine cable lines to Alaska. The senate provision to survey the boun- daries of Yellowstone National park was accepted. The bill as finally agreed upon carries total appro- priation of s16, 130, Ill, being an in. crease of $5, 1O3, 9l6 over the amount carried by the measure as it passed the house. The principal item of in. crease is the bill by the senate of the S4,6OO, GOO loan to the Louisiana Pur. chase Exposition company, to whict the house concIrred before the con ference was asked for.

Took the Chance.

In the lottery of seats Gen. Dick, of Ohio, has been one of the most unfor tunate members of the House. having never yet secured desirable seat. At the beginning of the Fifty-seventh Con, gross he was one of the very last Re- publicans called, and had to take the seat in the extreme southwest corner, the alternative being seat in tho Cherokee strip" on the Democratic side. Later in the session he discovered that a fairly desirable seat on the Re publican side was vacant, and after watching 1t for a week or so applied to the sergeant-at-arms.
 'If no one else with a prior claim wants that seat" he said, "I think I'll take it."
 What, take that seat!' the sergeant at-arms fairly shouted. Why, man, there isn't a member of the House would have 1t. Two members who oc- cupied that seat have died within tho past year"
 "In take it," promptly responded the Ohio member. 'I had a blamed sight rather be dead than sit where am."
 He took, the seat and survived that sessi0n and the next
