WAR STUFF
America Shipping More Munitions
Than Ever Before.
All Records Broken During 1915, Ac
eordIns to Statistics Of Port OF
New York--value Of Ship
ments Increases.

New York.-Exports OF gunpowder
and other explosives reached record
breaking proportions during 1915 and
particularly during the last month of
the year, when in this period alone
they exceeded In volume and value
more than the total of the entire
twelve months of the preceding year.
The total shipments in 1915 were 49,
SS4,703 pounds of dynamite. according
to a statement issued by Dow, Jones &
Co. The total value of 1915 shipments
OF gunpowder was $66,346,770, against
$289,9S3 in 1914. The average price
per pound was 70 cents in 1915, against
greatest deliveries were in November
and December exports was $20,201, $50
and that of the November exports SIG.
730.3S4, which was nearly three times
the money value of the October ship
ments.
A compilation by the foreign trade
department Of the National City bank
Of New York shows that the March
exports from the port of New York
thus far average about sos, 100000 per
week against s3S,000,000 per week in
February and $51 100000 per week in
December and January. This is the
more remarkable in view Of the fact
that the difficulties of obtaining vessel
space on the Atlantic have led certain
exporters of merchandise to the
Orient to send their goods by rail
| across the continent, and thence by
vessel across the Pacific. These rail
shipments, while intended for export,
are no longer included in the export
statements of the port Of New York.
| Nevertheless, the total exports from
the port of New York for the first
week of March were $57,500,000, and
those of the second week, while slight.
ly less. will probably bring the aver
age for the first half of the month up
to about s55.000,000 per week. or fully
40 per cent more than the weekly av.
erage OF February, and considerably
more than that of December and Jan
uary.
War material, foodstuffs and horses
continue the chief articles in the
growing exports.
The announcement that Portugal is
to be included n the list of nations al
war lends interest to a statement com
piled by the foreign trade department
of the National City bank of New
York on the commerce of that country
and its trade relations with the United
States. While Portugal Is compare
lively a small country 1t has 100000
people, or practically as many as all
of the New England states. 1t Is quite
densely populated, despite its noun
famous area, the average number Of
persons per square mile being 1853, oil
nearly four times that Of the United
States.
Its foreign commerce amounts tC
approximately $3.50, 100000 per annum
having more than doubled in the pas
twenty years. and increased about 81
per cent in the last decade. Its i'm
ports are considerably more thar
double its exports, the total imports o
1918 having been $96.o00.O00 in value
and It's exports but $3S,000,0O0. Thu
principal imports are coal, cotton
wool, raw silk, hides, wheat, sugar ant
manufactures. especially of iron ant
steel The principal exports are wine
cocoa, sardines and cork.

(Mail Special to Tho Adrertiserl

} o.. K0LoA, February 25.--on the gov,
eminent school grounds, the soccer team
tof the Kauai High and Grammar
School defeated the home team 3 to 0,
Friday afternoon. The High School

from the grammar grades as possible
and it has now won in games with Elt-
elP and Koloa. The Lihue Government
School has also played good football
and has won one game from KolOa.
In the Fridays game, some added
excitment was caused when one Of
High School eighth grade boys was cut
on the foot by nail in the shoe of o
boy on the opposite side. The umpire
ordered that the shoe be removed dur
ing the rest of the game, and the boy
wearing it left the field. In order to
keep down any further i'll feeling, the
High School tried to hold the score 2
to 0 as ii then stood but quite by ac-
e.dent, they kicked one more goal
bringing the score 80, as it was at the
end of the game.
