shot both bullets hit the same limb.
The 11@ear-old boy, Loudette. heard
the shots. He started down to the
door to let his mother in. He had just
opened it when ne first shot was fired.
He jumped on the back of his father
as the second bullet was sent on its
errand of vengeance and fought with
him to keep him from firing again.
Crutchfield started to get away. The
boy chung to him.
Don't you shoot again." screamed
little Loudette, trying to get between
the revolver and his mother.
The boy couldn't save his mothers
limb, but he did save her life by spoil
ing his fathers aim. Crutchfield ran
down the steps.

he yelled, in his rage.

tells it now, and / ran back to my

that when the president had refused
her permission to accompany her hus-

In the meantime she visited him often

hid away TASKS of water, canned sal

21s per cent in 1890, were S1s per cent in 1905.
 Comparing values of imports from the grand divisions in 1905 with those of a decade earlier it may be said that imports from Europe have grown from 3S4 millions in 1895 to 541 millions in 1905, and seem likely to exceed 500 mil lions in the fiscal year 1906. Imports from North America have grown from 134 millions in 1895 to 227 millions in 1905. and in 1906 will slightly exceed those of 1905. From South America the imports have grown from 112 millions in 1895 to 151 millions in 1905; but in 1906 will fall about 14 million below those of 1905, chiefly on account of a reduction of the quantity of coffee and india rubber imported. From Asia the imports fhave grown from 7S millions in 1895 to 162 millions in 1905, and will aggregate about 175 millions in 1906. From Oceania the imports of 1895 were 171E million dollars and in 1905 were 25 millions; the figures of 1905, how ever. do not include merchandise from the Hawaiian Islands, amounting to 36 million dollars, while the figures of 1895 include' merchandise imported from the Hawaiian Islands. the growth in inn ports from Oceania having been more rapid proportionately than from any other section of the world. From Af- rica imports have grown from mill lions in 1895 to a little over II millions in 1905.
 On the export side the total to Flu rope has grown from CPS millions in 1895 to 1,021 millions in 1905 and seems likely to be nearly or quite 12O0 mil lions in 1906. or an average of 100 mill lions a month since the figures of ten months indicate an average of about 104 millions. To North America the exports have grown from 1OSlA million dollars in 1895 to 26Os4 millions in 1905. and seem likely to aggregate about 800 millions in the fiscal year 1906. To South America the exports have grown from 331a millions in 1895 to 57 millions in 1905, and seem likely to be about 70 millions in 1906 To Asia the exports have grown from 17I5 millions in 1895 to 12S12 millions in 1905, but for 1906 will fall slightly below the figures of 1905 by reason of the abnOrmally large exports to China in that year. To Oceania the exports of 1895 were 13 millions and in 1905 B millions, and this latter figure does not include the F million dollars worth of merchan- disc sent to Hawaii in 19O5 though the figures of 1895 include the exports thereto. To Africa the exports in 1895 were million dollars and in 1905 1S1A millions
 Thus it appears that imports from Europe increased a little more than one-half in the period from 1895 to 1906; from North America nearly dou- bled; from South America showed but
Arizona republican., 1906-06-27

a slight increase; from Asia practically doubled: from Oceania, including Ha- waii trebled, and from Africa increased about one-half. On the other hand, exports to Europe nearly doubled in the period from 1895 to 1906; to North America nearly trebled; to South America more than doubled: to Oceania more than trebled, if we include the trade with Hawaii; to Africa more than doubled, and to Asia in 1905 were times as great as in 1895.
 Manufactures supply the largest part of the imports from Europe, and agri- cultural products, copper. mineral oil, leather, and iron and steel supply the largest part of the exports thereto. The bulk of the North American imports are sugar from Cuba; coffee, sisal, fruits, copper and lead from Mexico, Central America. and the West Indian Islands; timber, lumber, fish, and nickel ore from Canada; the exports to North American countries are chiefly manu- factures, also meats, flour and other food stuffs to those at the south. From South America the imports consist chiefly of coffee, india rubber. wool, hides, and skins, while the exports thereto consist chiefly of manufactures and certain lines of food stuffs. From Asia the imports consist chiefly of tea, coffee, raw silk, fibers. wool, pig tin, and wrapper tobacco, and the exports to Asia consist largely of cotton cloths, mineral oil. copper, and miscellaneous. manufactures. From Oceania the inn ports are chiefly tropical products and the exports thereto chiefly manufac- lures and food stuffs. From Africa the imports are chiefly tropical and subtropical products and the exports thereto chiefly manufactures.
 Of manufactures the exports for the fiscal year 1906 will be about 600 mill lion dollars, of which about 25O millions go to Europe the large proportion of the manufactures sent being copper, mineral oils, manufactures of iron and steel, boots and shoes, and scientific instruments. The exports of manufac- lures from the United States have grown from 1S31R millions in 1895 to about 50 millions in 1906, and the share which manufactures form of the ex- ports from IS per cent in 1890 and 23 per cent in 1895 to about 34 per cent in 1906.
 The sections in which the exports of the United States make least progress are within the tropics. The countries having a tropical or subtropical climate imported in the latest available year about 1,700 million dollars worth of merchandise and took but 200 millions of that amount from the United States, as against 470 millions from the United Kingdom, the worlds great exporter of manufactures. Tropical America inn ported 460 million dollars worth of merchandise, and of this the United States supplied 151 millions, or B per cent. Tropical Asia imported about 500 million dollars worth of merchant disc, and of this the United States supplied but 20 millions. or 21A per cent. Tropical Africa and Oceania inn ported 400 million dollars worth of merchandise. and of this the United States supplied but 30 millions. or 715 per cent. Of the imports of the entire tropical world, the United States SUD- piled 12 per cent and the United King dom over 2S per cent.

AN ANALYSIS
 OF COMMERCE
How This COuntry'S Trade
 is Divided
The Story of Its Rapid and Steady Diffusion Into the Corners of the Earth.

Washington, D. C., June 26.-An- alyses of the foreign commerce of the United States. recently presented by the department of commerce and labor through it's bureau of statistics, have included discussions of trade re- lations with each of the principal countries, and an analysis of these analyses presents some interesting gen eral facts about our trade relations with each of the great divisions of the world, whether geographic or climatic. This final analysis shows that in the fiscal year 1905 ASA per cent of the inn ports into the United States was drawn from Europe, 20.3 per cent from North America, 13.5 per cent from South America. 14.5 per cent from Asia, 2-3 per cent from Oceania, and 1 per cent from Africa. Of the exports from the United States in the same year, 67.2 per cent went to Europe, 17.2 per cent to North America, 3.S per cent to South America, S.5 per cent to Asia, 2.2 per cent to Oceania, and 1.2 per cent to Africa.
 A comparison with the figures of earlier years shows gradual decline in the share of our imports supplied by Europe and in the share which Europe takes of our exports. In 1858 Europe supplied T per cent of our total inn ports, the share ranging downward to s per cent in 1905; of the exports. the share taken by Europe ranges down ward from S4 per cent in 1881 to 67 per cent in 1905. This reduction in the percentage which Europe holds in the trade of the United States is largely due to the enlargement of our trade with the Orient. The imports from Asia. which formed but : per cent of the total in 1870 and S12 per cent in 1890. formed 141s per cent in 1905; and the exports to Asia, which amounted to but per cent of the total in 1870 and

The Board of Trade About to Show
 It to the Council.

A special meeting of the directors of the board of trade was held yester- day morning to consider the appoint ment of a committee to consult with the city council upon the sprinkling and other questions. Vice president Redewill presided in the absence of President Ward.
 After a discussion of the question and a consultation with a number of members who were present to give suggestions as to the plan to be pur- to the city council the following com mittee was appointed; Chairman, s. J. Nicholson, Vernon l.. Clark, J. A. Mar shall, w. T. Smith, J. NJ. Shott, C. H. Davidson, Dr. J. w Floss. Vice Presi- dent RedewiI was made an eX-officio member of the committee. While the number exceeds the number requested by the city council, there was somuch good material at hand that the addi- tionaI members were appointed, after the assurance of Mayor Coggins that they would be welcomed in the deliber- ations to be commenced tomorrow night.
 Chairman Nicholson immediately set about securing data and figures to be considered by the committee in mak- ing it's recommendations to the coun- cil.
 The greater part of the afternoon was spent by the sub committee in go- ing over the books of the city to in form itself of the actual expenditures for particular purposes, the data being required for the formulation of the plan proposed to be submitted to the council on Wednesday night. The committee does not care to make pub 1iP af fc kr, | the council. but it believes it will be a reasonable and practical solution of the question of the city finances until such time as the legislature can act in respect of a new charter. and incident ally will enable the city to resume the sprinkling of the streets at once. The committee will meet again this morning to work out the details of it's plan
