HIGH RECORD IN COMMERCE
Exports of Foreign Merchandise
from U. S. Largest in History.

Washington. Nov. t3.-Another record mas
been established in the commerce OF the
United States Exports of foreign mer-
chandise from the United States for the
fiscal year of 1910 were the largest on rec
ord They We're valued at S30,000,Gr. an
increase of 100000 over 1909, and s''eV'-
coo over the previous high record mark, es-
tablished in 1903.
Even with the large increase shown, for-
eign merchandise contributes small pro
portion of the total exports from the Un1ted
States. Thus. of the S1,745.oooooo OF exports
in 1910 foreign merchandise contributed
s35,O00OO0. or per cent of the total Ihls
condition is in marked contrast with that
obtaining in the commerce of the United
Kingdom OF the exports of that country
in the year which ended with June. 1910,
aggregatng s. 49, COO O00 s487,OOO,Ooo. or 20 per
cent of the total, represented the value OF
foreign and colonial merchandise exported
These relatively large exports of foreign
and colonial merchandise from the United
Kingdom are due in part to her geographic
position as the insu1ar centre of a great
empire. with colonies and dependencies for
which she serves in some degree as a dis
tributer of products TO the markets of the
world, and in part TO her large imports of
raw materials Frefghts TO the United
Kingdom are also comparatively low, for
the chances of obtaining return cargoes at
British ports are more favorable than else
where. Moreover, for certain articles the
large British ports have for years been the
terminals of traditional trade routes
The principal articles imported into the
United States and exported TO foreign coun-
tries without undergoing process of man
ufacture are india rubber, hides and skins.
art works, fruits and nuts, hbreS and tex
tile grasses, lead bullion, cane sugar. wrap

THE PRINT CLOTH MARKET
Sales Last Week Estimated at Less
than 100000 Pieces.

Fall River, Mass. Nov. Is (SpeciaD-
Trading in the print cloth market last
week was small. the total sales being esti-
mated at less than 900 pieces. The chief
cause for the reduced amount of trading,
50 far as could be learned. is the pro
nounced indifference on the part of buy
ers and sellers In special makes, such as
fancieS. dimitieS- etc. the prices offered by
buyers are as much as 124 cents below
those asked by the mills. and consequently
very little business is done in them. on
various other goods. such as twilIS and
Sateens, the same state of affairs exists
and even in plain goods buyers have Un-
derbidden the market so much that the mill
treaSurerS in many cases have ignored or
derS coming from New York factors
With cotton holding a high position.
there seems to be very remote probability
of mills reducing their prices. On the other
hand, it seems imperative that prices Will
have to advance before even fair margin
of profit is secured from the sales. OF the.
total sales made last week. about g. COO

DEFENDS BANK GUARANTEELAW
Counsel for Nebraska Asserts Rights
of the State.

Washington, Nov. 13.-"What the deposi-
tors want to know is that their deposits
are secure. that they can get their money
when they call for it. This legislation is
intended 10 afford them that assurance
This is the burden of a brief filed in the
Supreme Court of the United States by
Charles o. Whedon on behalf OF Nebraska
in defence of the statute guaranteeing de
posits in the banks of that state Argu-
ments on the validity of this law and those
Of Oklahoma and Kansas will be heard by
the court soon.
The brief denies that the law conflicts
with the Declaration of Independence and
the Nebraska constitution. Necessarily
the individual must surrender some of his
rights TO society. ii is argued, and he
surrenderS the most valuable Of all the So
called inalienable rights when hescOnCedes
the right of society to deprive him of life
and liberty when he violates its rules
Mr.. Whedon holds that il has been left
to the states To determine what tends to
promote public health and morals and the
