WORLD GRADUALLY CLIMBING
OUTOFDEPRESSION PERIOD
Commerce Department Re-
ports Wide Trade Gains
Since 1892

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. CUP
The entire world is gradually
climbing out of the depression
with many countries showing wide
business gains over the mid-sunl-
mer 1882 low point, the depart
ment of commerce reported last
night.
The report, dealing chiefly with
1884, showed that all major coun-
tries with the exception of France
had expanded their economic &C
tivity over 1888. The United
States was shown on the side OF
general improvement, while Japan
experienced record-breaking pro-
duction in many industries.
World trade showed slight de-
cline from 1888 probably because
of new exchange and financial re-
strictions but world output Of suca
necessities as coal, pig iron, steel
and copper showed substantial
gains. World exports fell to S10,-
100, 100000 from $10,551, ZOO, 900
in 1888 and imports dropped TO
S11,081, 100000 from $780,
100000.
Regarding 1884 conditions in
the United States, the survey said
they improved further during the
year. but that unemployment at
the end of the year was as high as
at the end of 1888.
"The downward phase of the
| current business cycle" 1t SAID,
preached it's nadir in the middle
of 1882, followed by secondary
low in March 1888, as result of
the banking crisis. Since that time
Improvement has been the rule al
though the progress made to date
has been slow and irregular, leav-
ing many major problems arising
from the depression still pressing
for solution at the close of the
year"
The report dealt with some OF
the factors, which, in the opinion
of experts, are related to the i'm
pending war between Ethiopia and
Italy.
There was "an alarming con-
traction" in Italy's export trade,
the report said, and added tina;
the decrease occurred in both the
volume and value of the Italian
goods shipped.
Regarding the Italian financia.
position, the report said:
| 90. There was continued
outflow of gold from the Bank OF
Italy in private finance also a
deflationary movement was In ev'
idence; the total capitalization OF
Italian corporations was 44,177,
$4,000 at the end of November
1884, as against 4S,494,79 ,Oel
lire a year earlier.

feet that Gibbs was driving the
car a few minutes before the
wreck and only a short distance
from the scene of the wreck.

the same night. He sustained q
broken right leg, crushed chest
and a fractured skull when the

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26. (UP)
President Roosevelt and senate
leaders toiled today at the White
House over plans to end the agra
rian revolt and send congress
homeward tonight. With adjourn
ment blocked by the senate's cry
for government loans on cotton
and wheat, the president backed
up house opposition and conferred
with Senate Majority Leader
Joseph Robinson and others, in
Guiding those wanting loans. The
senate stood recessed until p. m.
to prevent raising other issues
which might delay adjournment.
The house determined to block
loan demands, laid it's startegy to
force senate action. 1t appeared
likely that a compromise putting
the loan issue over until January
would result. A new adjournment
resolution to end congress by
midnight passed in the house af
ter Representative .Vinson, Geor-
gia, moved to table resolution and
a vote was ordered. Senators were
told informally that there was an
excellent chance of adjournment
tonight. The house also strength
ened the hand of the president in
it's determination to force the
senate to back down on cotton and
wheat loans when the third defici-
ency appropriation bill, carrying
the senate loan amendments was
summarily sent back to the house
appropriations committee by
Speaker Byrns.
A bloc of Dixie senators threat
ened last night to hold congress
in session indefinitely unless the
house agrees to continue loans of
IL cents a pound on cotton.
Senator James Byrnes, Cd. 5.
Co. said he had not been APP
preached with the offer of a COM
promise tentatively worked out
Just before dawn yesterday by
democratic leaders in the senate.
The federal government IS
threatening to reduce loans on
cotton from IL cents pound to
nine, and it was that action that
blocked adjournment of the first
session of the 74th congress Sat
urday night. Byrnes and his as
sociates tied an amendment on to
the third deficiency bill providing
for appropriation of about $780,
100000 to keep the cotton loans
at IL cents a pound. 1t was this
bill that was summarily recommlt-
ted today.
The house not only refused to
accept the amendment but declln-
ed to appoint conferees to meet
with delegates from the senate
and try to work out a compro-
mise.

Clerical Garb CHANGED.

NEW YORK, July 13.-Tourists who
visit Turkey this Summer will see
q most democratic assembly of ecclesi-
astical dress, according to the educa-
ton department Of the American Ex-
press Co. The law forbidding ecclesi-
astics in Turkey to wear clerical dress,
except at religious ceremonies, came
into force this month.
When the law was first promulgated
six months ago, many of the clerics,
particularly the Armenians, at once
set about acquiring lay clothes and
have now been wearing them for some
time. The majority, however. waited
until this month and the Greek priests
have only recently had their long hair
cut. They will be seen on the street
dressed alike in double-breasted suits,
ties and Homburg hats, all of black.
Lama priests have abandoned their
flowing garments and have taken on
an English haberdashery. Moslem
priests have trimmed their boards and
adopted uniform dress and may be
seen wearing lounge suits of varying
colors and anything from cap to a
bowler hat as headgear.

Strange Fruits Available.

MIAMI, Fla July 13.-summer Wis
istors in Miami may see and eat
a combination of fruits such as is
found nowhere else in the United
States. They mature in the late Spring
and Summer. Mangoes, avocados,
plantains, guavaS, surinam cherries,
governors plums, rose apples, sea
grapes, Sapotas, sapodillaS and sugar
apples are among the strange and rare
fruits available.
The mango is considered the most
popular of Miami's Summer fruits.
There are several varieties, the
"haden" mango being best for shipping
purposes. 1t is reported that mango
tree bears as much as from $50 to
s1OO worth Of fruit in a season. The
tree itself is decorative. Symmetrical
in form, it is covered with redish rib
bon-like leaves. The fruit is suspended
from long stems.
The avocado trees begin to bear
early in Summer, with late varieties
producing as late as January. When
ripe, the avocado is green or purple.
Avocados may be eaten fresh from the
trees. The latest innovation in Miami
is avocado ice cream.
Guavas are popular when taste
has been acquired for them. They
may be eaten raw, canned or made
into jelly, cheese and wine. Surinam
cherries are favorites with children.
The fruit is either black or red. The
leaves of the bush on which they grow
are a light green or delicate pink.
The governors plum is becoming
better known. The fruit in appearance
and flavor is similar to the guava, ex-
cept that it is less tart. One plant
of governors plums will produce sew
eral gallons of fruit juice. This fruit
makes a delicious plum-colored jelly,
according to South Florida housewives.
A taste must also be cultivated for
the rose apple. This fruit is very
fragrant, smelling like a rose. The
trees are especially decorative. The
bloom looks like a tufted silk thread
of creamy yellow and the fruit is yell
loWiSh, and crisp and sweet.
Sea grapes ripen in the Summer.
They grow on trees near the salt water.
The tree is irregular in form and the
leaves almost perfectly round and
heavy in texture, like the leaves Of a
rubber tree. The fruit is used chiefly
for making jellies.
The sapodilla looks like a potato
and grows on a tree frequently used
to ornament tropical gardens. The
