PACKERS LOSING.
crMuRRER TO THEIR PLEA IN
ABATEMENT SUSTAINED.
gOOSEvELT'S WORDS DECIDED.
The Indictments Are Held Vatd-The
packers Ordered by the Court to
Plead Next Thursday.

Chicago, ILL.,, Sept 30.-Federal
Judge Otis Humphrey yesterday sus,
tanned the demurrer filed by United
states District Attorney Morrison to
the plea in abatement made by pack
ers to have indictments declared void.
The defendants were ordered by the
eoart to plead next Thursday morning,
tho pleading to be taken up in argu-
mpnt before Judge Humphrey by the
following Monday.
One of the points in the pleading
which attracted considerable atten-
tion and which the court declared had
given him some difficulty was in re-
GARD 10 the right of Judge S. H. Bethea
N receive the return of the indict-
ment. 1t was argued by the defense
that he was sitting in the eastern
division of the Northern district of
Illinois, and received an indictment
voted in the northern division of the
Northern district of Illinois. The dis
trict attorney declared if the law of
March 8, 1905, was construed against
his intention there was no court, no
iudge and no return Of the indict.
ment The court surprised almost
every one when he read from Presi-
dent ROOseveltS message in the Con-
ressional record of last November,
in which it is declared that Judge Be-
thea was appointed as successor to
Judge C. c. KohIsaat, promoted from
the district court to the circuit court.
This promotion gave Judge Bethea the
right to accept the return of an in
dctment voted in the old district.

MARKETS WORTH STRIVING FOR.
Commerce of the Orient Worlds Great
est Commercial Prize.


Three thousand millions of dollars!
That is the arithmetical measure of
the commerce of the Orient. Thus it
is summed up by the official statisti-
clan of the governments department
of statistics.
And that commerce is said to be
yet small as compared with the
worlds commerce.
The population of Asia and Oceanica
is S50.O00,000, while that of all other
parts of the world combined is only
about 750,OO0,000. Its land area is
100000 square miles, while that OF
other parts of the world is 100000,
yet the commerce of the Orient is but
a paltry sS,0O0.OO0,OOO, while that of
other parts of the world is $4,000 ,OO0,.
900.
So 1t IS seen that the average per
capita commerce in the OrieLt is SO q
year, while the average per capita for
the rest of the world is $27 year.
The foreign commerce of China,
with 4O0,000,000 Industrious people and
no railways, has grown but $3.50, OuO-
600 since 1870; that of India, with
300,000,000 people and system Of
railways, has grown $25S,OOO,OOO, and
that of Japan, with only 45,0O0,OCO
and a system of railways, has grown
$215,OO0000.
And how does the United States
stand to share in this commercial
prize of the Orient?
At present the United States sells
to the Orient about 100000. 900 worth
OF goods a year. while Europe sells
$600,000,O00. But the records of the
past ten years show that We are gain.
ing much more rapidly in this trade
than any other nation. The imports
of China, Japan and Australia from
all European countries combined
showed an increase in 1903 of but
S45,OO0,O00 as compared with 1900,
while the increase in importations by
those countries from the United
States alone in the same period was
$49,O0O,0OO, thus showing that our gain
IN their export trade was actually
greater than the grain of all Europe
combined.
Our purchases, too, from the Oriert
have grown since 1870 from less than
$32,oOO,OOO to $4,000, 900 in 1904. We
have taken from them large quantities
OF raw silk, tea, hemp, jute, tin, goat
skins, ETC., and we send them raw and
manufactured cotton, mineral oils.
manufactured iron and steel, flour,
meats and rice
No country has the natural adyau.
tages which are possessed by the
United States for securing this Orien-
tai trade, in the command which
American merchants have of the Pa
c1hc ocean. Our national frontage of
the Pacific is 1880 nautical miles.
while that of the United Kingdom is
10000, of Russia 5000, Japan 5000 and
China about 5000.
IN addition to this we are about be.
ginning the construction of the 18th.
mian canal, which, when completed.
Will furnish direct water communica.
ton between the Orient and our pro.
duclng and manufacturing sections of
the east and south Cotton. iron and
breadstuffs will go by this route to the
orient, touching at the ports of Los
Angeles, San Francisco, Tacoma and
Seattle.
BY this means alone the United
States should increase her Oriental ex.
ports from $1O0,OOO,OOO to $500, OOO,O 900
per annum.
