Exports OF Leather.

Exports Of leather and leather manu-
factures from the United States during
tho calendar year 1905 were the largest
on record, being valued at S3s. .9i6. .422.
against S35,s2i, ,492 in 1904. s27. .lO9.6I4
in 1900, and sl2,275,470 in 1890. The
growth in this feature Of the foreign COM
merco has occurred chiefly during the past
decade, especially the last half Of that
period, As far back as 1855 the exports
under this head had reached total of
practically SiOO00OOO, and they ranged
between that amount and $4,000, 600 up
to about 1897, since which date they have
more than doubled.
The expectations Of leather and leather
manufactures, as classified by reports
issued by the Deparient Of Commerce
and Labor through It's Bureau of statis-
tics, fall under three principal heads.
Sole leather, upper leather, and boots and
shoes About one-half Of the total is in
tho form Of "upper leather" for use in
the manufacture of boots and shoes. and
about one-fourth is represented by boots
and shoes and sole leather respectively.
Harness and saddles show a total of a
little over S50OOOO, and other leather
manufactures Sl,333, 900.
Exports of boots and shoes have in
creased about sl,0OOOOO since 1900.
There has been meantime, however. a
noticeable change as to the destination Of
this class Of our exports. In 1900 British
Australasia led all other countries as a
market for American boots and shoes,
while the United Kingdom was the only
other country to which we sent value
in excess Of sl,OOO,O0o. It 1905 four
countries showed a total of more than
Sl,OOO,OOO.

The result Of the recent Divorce Con-
gress held in Washington for the purpose
OF endeavonng TO secure uniform divorce
laws in all the States Of the Union was
a decided step in the direction Of this de-
sired reform.
The provisions Of the statute suggested
by the Congress arc directed against the
owl Of collusive divorces and against
making a divorce granted in one State for
a slight scuse binding in other States
where such cause Of divorce is not rccog-
niEed as adequate. The general pro-
visions Of the Massachusetts, law are taken
as the standard covering the matter Of
visitings TO other States for tho purpose
Of obtaining a divorce. The law provides
that If a resident Of Massachusetts removes
to another State and applies for divorce
for a cause arising in Massachusetts, or for
a cause not recognized by the law Of that
State, the divorce shall not be recognized
there as valid. "The Congress recon-
mends further that final decree per-
mitting remarHage shall not be entered
until after the lapse Of a considerable
time, preferably one year, as is the case
now in California, Illinois and Wisconsin.
Another recommendation aimed to re-
strain the procuring Of divorces by
transitory residence provides that where
a defendant moves into another State to
permit a suit for divorce 70 be brought
in the new domicile, residence Of two
years shall be required.
These recommendations are not radical,
but they may 90 a great ways towards
correcting existing evils. II generally
approved they would, at least, relieve
a few States Of the odium Of being made
the object Of general attack by those who,
weary of the marriage bond, seek release
South Dakota now enjoys this unenviable
notoriety, while other States are not en-
tirely exempt.
II all the States adopt the recommen-
dations Of the Divorce Congress, further
reforms may follow, until the uniform
system is practically perfect.

The Hen as a rruat-hustar.

Il is said that the Egg Trust has gone
to pieces and that its promoters stand
to lose three-quarters of million dollars
by reason Of the recent collapse of the
market and the great fall in prices.
IL is said that the Beef Trust is also
hit by the collapse, it having thousands
OF cases OF eggs on hand which cannot be
held over until another season. It will
be doubly hit, as the throwing Of these
eggs on the market will naturally cause
reduction in the use of meat.
The American Hen is entitled to the
credit for this glorious condition. At
the critical moment she began laying
most industriously, and the resultant ad-
ditions to the supply of eggs throughout
the country broke the corner and caused
prices TO tumble. Against her sagacity
and industry the Trusts faltered and
finally fell.
All honor to the American Hen. Nav
her tribe increase in the land And as
the Lenten season, thus opened so auspi-
ciously with cheaper eggs, progresses, may
the prayers of all the penitents include
petitions for blessings without number
upon this inestimable bird.

W. H. BROWN REr1REs.
He Had Been Chief Engineer OF the Penn.
sylvania Railroad for MANY Years


William II. Brown, who for more than
70 years occupied the position of chief
engineer OF the Pennsylvania railroad,
was yesterday retired by the board OF
directors Of the railroad at meeting
held m Philadelphia. His retirement was
was due TO his having reached the age
oi ~ years. Curously enough, Mr..
Brown birthday anniversary falls on
February 18th so that he viii have no
birthday anniversary this year. lie will
receive a pension.
While having been chief engineer for
only 70 yeau, Mr.. Brown has been con-
nected with the Pennsylvania railroad
lot a much longer period, having entered
JUS employ IN 1867. Before entering the
employ OF the railroad he was with the
Union forces during tthe first years of
the Clvl War and one of his triumphs
was the building Of a bridge 43O feet
long across the Shenandoah River at
Port Royal, Va, in as hours.
As token Of the esteem in which he
was held by his subordinates the engi-
neeilng stan OF the railroad presented
nm with massive and beautiful loving
cup.
Alexander c. Shand. who was assistant
CHIEF engineer, was promoted TO fill the
vacancy caused by Mr. Browns retire
ment and the following promotions were
also made in the department. Edward B.
Temple made assistant chief engineer.
and John / Murray appointed assistant
70 the chief engineer Mr.. Shand has
been With the railroad company for n
years.
The plans for the railroad improve
ments here were made under tho super-
vision Of Mr.. Brown.

The Tariff and Shoes.

"The hide duty adds about seven cents
a pair TO the cost Of producing the grade
OF shoes manufacture" writes former
Gov. Douglas of Massachusetts, in letter
which was read In Congress and printed
in the Record. 81 also wish 10 make
Il quite plain 20 the public that, while
an increase Of but seven cents In the cost
Of manufacture of pair Of $3.50 shoes
may seem ssmall and unimportant matter
that amount represents more than the
net profit Of the average manufacturer
To put g., $4,000 into the troa-
sury Of tho United States as the result
Of the duty upon hides, we put about
100000 Of Unnecessary tariff profit in
the hands Of the Beef and Leather Trusts.
This puts an iniquitious tax upon the
solo-leather industry Of about $4,000 600,
and disahles that industry in It's fight for
the markets Of the world
Now, II tho 100000 which this tariff
tax on hides puts into the treasures Of
the Beef and Leather Trusts went into
the national treasury, tho people might
not complain. For then they would be
paying all tho tax money towards the
support Of the government. But the
treasury gets only s2,25OO0O, while the
Trusts get s7,OO0,OO0.
And even with all the money going
into the treasury, there would remain
the serious handicap OF the tax burden
which, as Gov. Douglas points out, re-
stricts the shoe industry "in its fight for
tho markets of the world"
So the tax not only imposes on the
people but hampers industry. And all
for the benefit of the Trusts.
