HEAVY GAIN IN IMPORTS.
Foreign Commerce Figures Show Adverse
Trade Balance for August

Foreign trade returns for August show for the
third month in succession an excess OF imports OF
merchandise over exports Imports In larger
volume than in July, when it believed the rush
o. commodities into the country because of i'm
pending higher duties contained IN the new tariff
law had reached its maximum. Compared with
July there was an increase In imports 20 the value
OF S.725.Oo0. while compared with August 1895
there was gain OF s24s42 900, against loss in ex
ports of $as376 The falling OF IN exports was due
TO reduction in shipments OF agricultural prod
ucts. Following are the figures for August com

PRODUCT OF KENOSHA
Old Barbed Wire Fencing Made
Here in 1876 Found at Naval
Training School Grounds
BIRTHPLACE OF BIG INDUSTRY

The fact that the first barbed wire
made at Kenosha, has been brought
out by the tearing down Of the old
barbed wire fences surrounding por
ton of the property used as the site
ing School just south of North Chi
cago. E. P DeWolf, former mayor of
Waukegan, happened to go out to the
site few days ago and while there
he picked up a portion of the old wire
fence. The wire was unusual in that
it was found to be composed Of two
strands of wire with an infinite num-
Der Of old fashioned carpet tacks
woven between the strands It is de-
clared that the wire used there was
the first ever manufactured and it was
manufactured at Kenosha under a
patent owned by II. NJ Underwood.
Many Of the earlier settlers of Ke-
nosha can recall the time when the
wire was made by Mr.. Underwood in
this city and at that time it was ex-
pected that Kenos.la would in time be-
come a great center for the manu-
facture of barbed wire A boom along
this line was started in 1876, but short
ly after that time the Underwood pat
ent was sold to the Washburn Moen
Company at Waukegan. For years
Waukegan was the only city in the
country al which barbed wire was
manufactured and it was all made
under the Kenosha patent. Then came
the sale Of the Waukegan plant to
the steel trust and with that the sale
Of the patent and now barbed wire is
being made at nearly every mill owned
by the trust.
It is probable that there are few
people in Kenosha who are aware of
the fact that Kenosha was the original
home of this largely used sort Of fenc-
ing.

ter is being taken now by the present
director in order to make it impossi-
bic for errors to creep into the re-
turns. The committee of the senate
in charge of taking the census, is
headed by Senator Robert M. LaFol-
lette Of this state, and it is certain
that the work in Wisconsin will be
we'll looked after. The counting of
noses in the city will start about the
first of July and it is expected that
it will be completed by the last of
August The appointment of an
enumeration to take the census will be
in the hands of the congressman of
the district as in former years and it
is probable that the work will be
placed in the hands Of son2e Of the
college boys of the city who will be
in Kenosha at that time for their
annual vacation.
Kenosha people are taking great
deal of interest in the thirteenth cen
sus as it is expected that the city Of
Kenosha will show a larger proper
tomato increase than any city of its
class in Wisconsin. At the time of the
taking of the last national census, the
city had population of only a. little
over 100, but it is expected that these
figures will be doubled by the enumera-
ton this year. In addition to the
enumeration Of the people of the city
the census takers will gather a great
deal of interesting information in re-
gard to the great industries of Keno
sha and these figures will show that
the business interests of the city have
been greatly developed in the past ten
years. In some lines it will show that
the business has increased to four
times the volume shown at the former
census.
