CROWD OUT OUR SHIPS.
British and German Vessels Get
ChiIe's Trade.


Consul Mansfield, at Valparaiso, in a
report to the state department says
that out of a total of 100000 annual
tonnage of vessels entering Chilean
ports those flying the American flag
represented only $4,000 tons. Great
Britain's flag covered 100000 tons
and German ships aggregated 3,000,000
tons. The trade Of the United States
fell back from $11,000,000 in 1903 to
SIC, 100000 in 1904, notwithstanding
Chile greatly increased her purchases
The Chilean government, the consul
says, is planning many new railroads
and extensions. The transandine raj
way, when completed, will shorten the
time between Chile and Europe 10 OF
IL days. Consul Leroy, at Durango
writes that Mexico will soon have tc
import wheat.
Consul General Thackeray, at Der
lin, reports that the United States pur
chased nearly $15,000,000 more mer
chandise from the empire last, veal
than in 1904, mostly manufactured
goods, but that the sales of American
manufactured goods to Germany, aside
from lard and petroleum, in 1905, die
not equal $15,000,000.

Ex.PRESIDENr OF FRANCE HELD
RESPONSIBLE FOR CHURCH
and STATE DIVISION.
Famous Cathedral Of Notre Dame Cen
ter of Excitement-Great Crowds
. Assembled to Watch French Off
Gals Take Inventories of Catholic
Churches-Safes Blown Open.

A Paris dispatch says: The famous
cathedral Of Notre Dame was the CEN
ter of much excitement Saturday,
which later took the form of disor-
derby manifestation against former
President Loubet. Crowds assembled
in the Place Notre Dame, expecting
the authorities to come and take an
inventory of 4he chapter house, and
force Of $50 policemen patrolled the
surrounding streets expecting trouble
within the edifce, but as the authori-
ties did not attempt an inventory, this
did not take place. The crowds out
side gradually increased in numbers,
however, and finally several hundred
persons marched to the Rue Dante,
where M. Loubet has taken up his
residence The manifcstants passed
before the house of the former presi
dent, uttering insulting cries against
him. The police then drove on the
crowd, which, however, reassembled
and turned, only to be dispersed again
slight ARRAY took place between the
police and the manifestants as the
latter sought to return once more,
and dozen arrests were made.
The explanation of the movement
against NJ Loubet is that the bill for
separation of church and state became
a law during his administration.
Inventories were made at several
Paris churches, though. At the artistic
cratic church of St. Thomas Aquinas.
the project of police, with a strong
body of men, had to force his way
through a long passage into the
sacristy, owing to the resistance made
by a number OIL the parishioners. The
priests then refused to hand over the
keys and the project caused the safes
to be broken open. An inventory OF
the property was then made.
Ten arrests were made, General
Recamier being among those takes
into custody.
