dentedly high. Petroleum and its
products advanced in price 20 per
cent.
Iron and steel were sold at high
prices and the demand WAS so great
that orders could not be filed within
q reasonable time, and seaport cities
made large purchases abroad because
deliveries were so much delayed.
The production of precious metals
will probably turn out to be nearly z
per cent greater than last year.
The rice crop of Texas, a new indus
uy practically, was remarkably large
and sold for high figures.
Tremendous discoveries of petrole-
am on the Pacific coast enabled that
part Of the country to substitute six
million dollars worth of oil for coal,
which was previously imported either
from Great Britain or Australia.
The total destruction of the fruit
crop In Great Britain and in southern
Europe made an unexpected market
for American green fruits. More than
10 per cent of all the fruits sold in the
London markets to-day is American.
The average increase in the cost of
foodstufis to the consumer in the
United States was 16 per cent.

the ratification of this treaty that
brought the question to the issue in
the senate, and when congress ad-
journed without action an extra SEES

Some Passing Sensations.

man shot and killed Editor N. G.
Gonzalez. Gonzalez had attacked Till
man rabidly in his paper and had de-
feated his nomination for governor.
The affair was widely and vehemently
discussed, but in October Tillman was
acquitted, partly because the fatal at
tack was not entirely unjustified, and
partly because there was evidence to
show that Tillman thought Gonzalez
was armed and about to at ack him.
Disastrous Floods.
Little can be said here of the disas-
trous floods of the year. In March the
lower Mississippi rose higher than
ever before, and on the Goth of that
month passed all records. Cities along
the river, especially Memphis. suffered
heavily, levees gave way and miles OF
lowlands were inundated, causing un
told damage and great suffering, es

no race, so clearly demonstrated the
superiority of the Reliance that inter-
est began to wane at once. The Re-
lance won three straight races, but
before the last race the public in gen,
eral lost all interest in the contest
Sir Thomas, 1t is said, believes the
effort to be hopeless for many years to
come.
On Nov. 3 elections were held In
thirteen states, seven of when chose
governors. The following governors
were reelected: A. b. Cummings
(rep) of Iowa; j. c. w. Beckham
(dem.) OF Kentucky; John l.. Bates
(rep.) of Massachusetts, and l.. f. c.
Garvin (dem.) of Rhode Island. Edwin
Warfeld (dem.) was chosen governor
of Maryland; J. X. Vardman (rep.)
of Mississippi and Myron r. Herrick
(rep) was elected governor of Ohio
by plurality of over 100000 over Tom
l.. Johnson. The other elections of
national interest resulted in the return
OF Tammany to power in Greater New
York. George B. Mcclellan (dem.)
received plurality of 10000 over for
mer fusion Mayor Seth Low. The en-
tire Tammnay ticket was elected, and
that organization also secures a ma
jority Of the board of aldermen.
Republic OF Panama.
AS in several other instances In 1908
momentous events conspired to occur
on the same day, so on Nov. the
province of Panama declared her in
dependence of Colombia. The follow
ing day provisional government was
established, and Colombian officials
and troops were gent to Cartagena.

slonaIlna Under Water.

There has recently been put In rp-
Grafton at Boston system Of signal
ing beneath the waves to vessels ap-
preaching dangerous shores during
foggy weather. The apparatus CON
sists of two receivers, located on
either side of the ship below the water
line, and connected by wires to the
wheel house, where telephone boz
is placed. The signals from shore are
given by striking a submerged ball at
regular intervals. When the observer
wishes to ascertain his location he
takes the ear piece, and by moving
the switch either to the right or left,
soon ascertains upon which side the
sound is che loudest, and upon that
side the bell will be found. The value
of systspl of this nature is at once
apparent when 1t Is borne In mind

SO it remained imperative until the
extra session in November.
The Panama Canal.
The Panama canal was the burning
question, and at the beginning, as at
the close of this year, 1t seemed
certainty. For years the agitation in
favor of canal across the lsthmus OF
Panama had been agitated, and recent
ly with increased interest. Thousands
of dollars hau been spent surveying
the possible routes, and 1t at last
seemed assured that the United
States, in conjunction with Great
Britain, would undertake the Mica
ragua route.
Since the collapse of the De Les
seps Panama scheme a new French
company had possession of and had
done some work on the Panama canal
but until it became evident that this
country was in earnest about Nicara-

The event of Aug 10 was more sig

Colombians brewed trouble for them
selves. On that day the Colombian
senate rejected the HayHerrau Pana-

action seemed for the time to put the
canal farther away than ever.

Momentous Events That Have Signal.
lied the Past Twelve Months.

The all-absorbing topic of January,
1908, was the Venezuelan imbroglio.
The active events of that affair be-
long. Of course, to 1902, though as late
as Jan. 20 the German ships bonn
barded the fort of San Carlos, but on
Jan. President Castro rested Ven
eGuela's side of the case entirely in
the hands OF Minister Bowen, who set
sail for home Jan. IL. After that the
whole matter was thrashed out in
Washington, and the interest in the
affair remained keen to the very close,
because many thought they saw in the
warlike action of the allies, especially
Germany, a determination to attack
no. Venezuela so much as Uncle Sans
famous Monroe doctrine. The attempt,

The Great Coal Strike.
The anthracite coal strike belongs
even more to the history of 1902 than
does the Venezuelan affair and the de-
alterations of the arbitration commits

The commission entered into the mat

ty. The last witness was not called
until Feb. and the arguments of the
opposing counsel consumed the fol-
lowing week. President George f.
Baor represented the operators and
Clarence Darrow the miners.
After a months deliberations the
commission reported.
The miners won a portion OF In.

pecially to the poor negroes of the
South. The following month and in
June the Missouri and its tributaries
were flooded, and Topeka, Kansas City,
st. Louis and East st. Louis suffered
from the rush of waters. The cotton
mills in the Carolinas and Georgia
were also victims of the raging waters
and many other cities, notably Pater-
son, N. j., were inundated. Heppner,
Ore, was practically devastated by n
cloudburst.
Passing Of Pope Leo.
Late in June came the announce
ment of the serious Illness of Pope
Leo XIII. That aged pontiff was 93
years of age on March 2, and on
March celebrated the twenty-tifth an
niversary of his coronation as pope,
thus putting an end to the long-hon-
ored tradition that no pontiff would

years, the longest in history, and the
old tradition cannot survive this Sec
ond breaking of tho record. On July 5
the pontiff was regarded as in criti-
cal condition, and in a few days his
life was despaired of. but though APP
parently frail in body, the long years
of simple habits had given him splen-
did power of resistance to disease, and
for more than two weeks he battled
with the ravages Of pleural pneumonia.
On July 20, however, he died, and on
the following day the chair of Peter
was declared vacant by Cardinal Cam
erlingo Oreglia. The conclave to
choose his successor assembled on the
last day Of the month. and on Aug. 4,
after several indecisive ballots, chose
