Small game, too, spreads throughout
the country, and the biggest bags are

Europe takes two thirds Of the ex-
ports of the United States and sup
plies practically one-half the imports,
says bulletin issued by the depart
ment Of commerce and labor. OF the
81, OBJ 100000 worth Of merchandise
sent to Europe in 1905, $239, 00O, 900
worth was manufacturers, the other
7S2,OOO,O00 worth being largely food
stuffs, and manufactured materials.
In 1900 the exports to Europe cross
ed the billion dollar line, and since
then have averaged about ST. ,050, 000,4
600 per annum. In 1900 the exports
to all sections of the world other than
Europe were 1884,, 100000 in value, in
1905 they were $49S, 100000, the
growth since 1900 in export to nom
European countries having been pro-
portionately greater than that to Eu-
rope. Prior to 1890, the share of the
imports drawn from Europe averaged
about 55 per cent; in 1905 it was
S4.4 per cent This reduction, the
bulletin says, is apparently account
ed for by the growing demand in the
United States for tropical products
which are supplied almost exclusive
" by the other grand divisions Of
the world.
The value Of these products brought
into the United States in 1905 was
$5OS, OO0, 900, against 1903, 100000 in

President Roosevelt submitted q
message to the house vetoing a bill
passed by congress for the creation of
the Western Judicial district of Tex
as. The proposed division was to con-
stitute the counties Of Uvalde, laval
la, Maverick, Kinney, Val Verde, Ter
rell and Pecos, and the bill provides
that term of United States courts
should be held twice each year at
the town of Del Rio.
In his veto the president says that
the proposed division does not have
enough cases to justify its establish
ment. In FIVE years, he says, there
have been but sixty-four criminal and
twenty-six civil cases originating in
the seven counties. Del Rio is de-
scribed as small place in a sparsely
settled portion Of the country and
the veto says as most of the cases
have originated in Maverick county
this would be more reason for holding
court at Eagle Pass.
