CASSIDY B0BS UP AGAIN
Queens Indicted Boss Trying to
Get Back in Power.

Backed by Joe" Cassidy, a rival ticket
has been placed in the field in Queens
against the candidates designated by the
regular Democratic organization. and the
Cassidy forces under different guises. are
to try their utmost to overthrow the pres
ent reform administration which is head
ed by Borough President Connolly.
Owing to the fact that he is under in
dictment in the judiciary scandal. Cassidy
does not appear openly, but the ticket was
organized and placed in nomination from
his clubhouse in Long Island City. Dis
trict Attorney Matthew J. Smith. who
was the only candidate on the Cassidy
ticket elected last fall. was made chair
man Of the campaign committee. with
County Clerk Martin Mayer as treasurer
and Alfred j. Durham as secretary. An
drew Goetz was designated for Sheriff;
Frederick W. Dunton. a nephew OF the
late Austin Corbin for County Clerk;
DR.. Johnston Macleod for Congress. and
Denis ]. Harte for Senator
The combination has for its principal
object the paving OF the way for the re-
turn to power Of Cassidy as Borough
President, from which office nc was
ousted six years ago.
However. the Connolly forces are un-
usually active. Their ticket is headed by
Denis J. OJAary for Congress. Bernard
Patten Is the nominee for Senator. Leon
ard Ruoff for County Clerk and George
Emner for Sheriff. One after another the
different Democratic clubs have Endorsed
the ticket. the latest being the Nameoke
Democratic Club, Of Richmond Hill.

As usual few persons recognized Gov
ernor Wilson. and he walked through the
Pennsylvania Terminal to taxicab I'M

TRADE OF PHILIPPINES
Nearly Doubled Since Prior to
American Occupation.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington. Sept S.-The Bureau Of
Insular Affairs OF the War Department
has received full reports Of commerce OF
the Philippine Islands for the fiscal year
ended June 80, 1912.
The total exports from the islands were
S50.319.S36 The maximum exports for
any year prior TO American occupation
were S25,671,322 for the year 1889, and
the largest for any previous year during
American occupation were 1854, 169.
for 1910.
Sugar exported was 1907 long tons.
valued at s10,400,575. This is the great
est of any year during American occupa-
ton. The maximum during Spanish occu-
patton was for 1898. for which year the
total value OF sugar exported was s1o,-
36S.8SS.
The total tobacco exported. manu-
featured and manufactured. amounted
TO s4.5e5,193. The greatest for any previous
year was for 1910, amounting to A,637, 495
The greatest export of tobacco for any
year prior to American occupation was
for 1S92-s2,5S5,7
The total imports into the islands
amounted to s54 549. $50. OF these $40. 604, 15j
represent shipments of American goods
from the United States. Both of these
are greater than for any previous year
Prior to American occupation the great
est imports for any year were for 1872,
amounting to s23.0g7,j15 On the other
hand, the year 1882 was that in which i'm
ports from the United States were the
greatest. amounting 10 sl.377,s s3. which
was wholly exceptional, being approx
mately three times the average annual
importation from the United States.
While the total foreign trade OF the ISL
ands, amounting, as il did, last year TO
only sos. 900 900. is small for the popula-
ton, and extremely small considering the
territory. the showing of the last year
begins to indicate what we may expect
in the not distant future. This total OF
last year was % per cent more than for
any preceding year. and was considerably
more than double that for the most pros
porous year prior TO American occupation.
