The United States again stands, at
the close of the calendar year 1903, at
the head of the list of worlds export
ing nations. so far as relates to the
expectation of domestic products. This
fact is shown by a series of tables just
presented by the department of com
meree and lobar through it's bureau of
statistics.
There are only three billion dollar
countries" considered from the stand
point of expectation of domestic prod
ucts, and they are. in the order of the
magnitude of their exports, the United
States, the United Kingdom, and Ger
many. In the calendar year 1908 the
exports of domestic products were:
From the United States, 81, 457, 565, 1888 in
value; from the United Kingdom, 81 :
415, Gil, $50; from Germany the figures
for the full year have not been receiv-

available justifies an estimate of 81.

that the United States has taken hel

Why is it, asks Henry Clews in the
Financial Review. that in the face Of
such a heavy expansion of loans, time
money declines and confidence re-
wives ?" And then he answers the ques-
ton as follows: The explanation il,
the bank statement could not have in
dicated our immense borrowing opera
tons abroad for the past year or two.
The heavy liquidation of 1903 enabled
our banks to transfer many of these
foreign obligations to this side; and
since these foreign loans We're often of
a better character than those placed at
home it follows that, since recent Ii
quotation, local bankers view the ex-
pansion of loans with little concern.
They have good collateral and conf
dence that the strengthened situation
will enable a better liquidation of the
syndieate's loans, which are still re-
Bponsible for much of the expansion.

TESTING THE CASES.
City Attorney Spencer Meets OBJ
stacles in District Court.

City Attorney Spencer was busy in the
district court today with a list of cases
which We're in fact. although not SO in
tended test cases to try the solidity of
various city ordinances.
The first case was against Vera Noel
charged with keeping a disorderly house
The testimony submitted proved be-
yond a doubt that her place was
which the prosecution was made pro-
vided that the keeping of disorderly
houses, brothels, houses of i'll fame or
houses of designation shall be unlawful.
The Noel woman was prosecuted on the
charge of maintaining disorderly
house The evidence was that she kept
house of i'll fame. The police, in
making the charge, used disorderly
house as a term to cover any house Of
a bad character. The attorney for the
Noel woman raised the point that she
was charged with keeping disorderly
house but the prosecution was that she
decided that the charge and the evil
dence did not agree and he took the
case from the jury and discharged the
defendant With the court disorderly
means noisy
Attorney Spencer had case against
B. F. Kelly who was found in dis
orderly house when it was raided. and
wished to try him to decide the validity
of such a charge, but the decision in
the Noel case caused him to dismiss
the Kelly case and also a case against
Jennie Cline, charged with keeping a
disorderly house
Officer Dusenberry. who has a repu-
tation of arresting every owner of a
horse left unhitched. came before the
| court in the case against G. NJ. Jami-
son. and it was as much a trial of
Dusenberry as Jamison. The officer
arrested Jamison who drives a COM
mission wagon, and charged him with
violating the city ordinance by leaving
his team unhitched Jamison appealed
the casa from the police court Dusen-
berry testified that Jamison left the
team in the middle. of the street I'M
hitched and went into a store. .Tami-
son said the team was standing by the
street curb and that he was in the
door OF a store. not twenty feet away,
watching the team. 1t was Dusen-
berry's word against Jamison's. The
jury retired to ponder over the case.
