LONDON , April 11.-The Lnprovcmcnt in trade , shown in the returns for the first quarter of the present year , has been greeted with great satisfaction , and it is pointed out that lire increases are due to an all round development of trade and Industry. In addition there is a promise of further progress being shown during the current quarter. The returns , as already cabled , alrow , that the imports have amounted to 112,250,342 , against 100,827,8G0 for 1893. The exports for the first quarter of 1890 were 61,232,013 , against f52720,3G1 , for last year at the same time. Only two Important tie. creares are in dutiable articles of food anti drink and raw textile materials. The home exports increased in every Instance , and moreover , the hucreasas prevent a fair advance - vance in prices. Besides there has been an exranslon of trade in many instances. Tire resolution introduced by Mr. Call In tine United Staten senate in the case of Mrs. Florence Maybrick , the American woman who is undergoing a sentence of imprisonment - ment for life , after having been convicted of causing line death of her husband by poison , has produced many sarcastic com- mente in the press. . Some of lire newspapers here intimate that the senate interferes with everybody's business. But the friends of Mrs. Maybrick and a portion of the press titlnk that the senate's action will be hene- flcial to the unfortunate prisoner. The Echo , for instance , says : "While the sen- ate's action will for the present harden lire so-called judicial mind of England , yet it will compel a partial reinvestigation of the case by the press of this country , which will ultimately move time home omee , and it. is probable that we shall see a similar result as with Venezuela. The home office will be compelled by tire commotion on both skies of the Atlantic to alter its policy , and when additional light has been thrown on , the case , we may expect a reprieve , after a sloppy delay. " CONDEMN AMBASSADOR DAYARD. The friends of Mrs. Maybrick are severe in their criticisms of Ambas-z'atior Bayard. They even go so far as to say that hire. May brick would have been tree by this time had any other man occuplea the post of am- barsatlor of the United States there. They aseert that Mr. Bayard la now so afraid of transgressing what is termed "diplomatic usago" that ire hesltales to false action ht the matter. Although the Washington petition tion wlth weighty signatures , was transmitted - mitted tinrouglm Mr. Baya d by the Slate department - partment , neltlrer the foreign office nor the home office informed the United States embassy - bassy of its recent decision in time Maybrick case. case.Mr. Mr. Gerald Dalfour , the chief secretary for Ireland , on Monday next will introduce an Irish land bill of far larger seope than that brought forssard by John Morley when he was chief secretary for Ireland. It proceeds on tire principle that perchase by the occupying - cupying tenant is tire ultimate solution of the land question in Ireland. Mr , lhalfour's task has been made easier by the increasing prosperity of Ireland , where agitation is becoming - coming decidedly at a discount. The ravings bank deposits in Ireland now amount to nearly 8,000,000 , tire highest figures ever roeorded. Besldes , lire bulk of the evicted tenants have returned to their holdings and Smith-Berry , as at example , has just come to terms with all his agricultural tenants in Tipperary and other important settlements are ins progress. The questions of abolishing lire office of lord lieutenant of Ireland and appointing a member of flue royal fanlly' , pceuibly the duke of York , tire heir-presumptive , do reside permanently in Ireland , is again being agitated - tated , The question svlll be raiseti shortly fn the House of Commons.

CONSTANTINOPLE , Aprit 11.-Although the Turkish government ha s officially announced - nounced that the missionaries in Asia Minor will not be expelled so long as they "comply with the laws , " It becomes more and more apparent , na facts leak oUt , that Rev. George Knapp , one of the miseicearles al illtlis , has been expelled iii spite of the understanding in his case arrived at between United Stales Minister Terrell and the Tdrklsln government , after it hind been proposed to try Mr. Knapp on the charge of inciting Armenians to revolt against the government. Almost dally negotiations on the subject take place between the United Stales charge d' affaires , Mr. IIddle , and tune Turkish min- Inter for foreign affairs , but the matter is still misunderstood and seems to be casual- lag a graver asp1ct as time passes. Time Turkish government , however , has not made any ofiiclal statement reprding the part taken in the affair by the local authorities of Bltlis , although the oiiietal note has been issued denying that Mr. Knapp is imprksonal at Diarbekir , and stating agaln that there is no intention to expel the missionaries so long as they comply wide the law. Verbal explanations , however , have been fortlrcom ing from the Porte , but the friends of the missionaries do not cons1Aer this explanation - tion to be in any way satisfactory. Besides - sides , it Is stated today on good authority , that the local omclale of Ditlis received an order some time ago , from a high quarter , to expel Mr. Knapp , anti it Is added highly probable that the order would have been carried out long before the misslonary was compelled to leave his post had ft not been for the arrival. at Moosh of tire I3ritisir vice consul , Mr. Hanson. The latter inter- esteti bhnself in the case of the Anuericau missionary , examined into the charges brought against him , pronounced them to be entirely groundless , and so informed the United State's minister , who thereupon in slsted that Hr. Knapp should be tried in his presence at Constantinople. Eventually it was agreed between the Turkish government - ment and Mr. Terrell that Mr , Knapp should leave Ilillis "when the sate of tire roads permitted , or about the end of April , " The mirsionary , however , was forced to move by the autlrorlties of piths before April 1 , when the roads were so bad that his family was unable to accompcny 1dm. lie it now reported to be near' Alexandretta , and it is further stated than thl : United Slates minister was not informed , as' it was agreed that ho should be , of the. expulsion of the American mnisslonary from Ditlis. The missionaries place little faith In the aseuranco of the Porte tlra It is not intended to expel them from Asia Senor , Some pretext - text for their expulsion , . tney believe , will he found whenever the Porferdeems it necea- rry. Such a charge as ccynsplrinrg against the government is easily made and can be established to the satisfaction of a Turkislr official looking for an oppdrtunlly for condemning - demning a Christian mis fonafy.

Tire arrest o0 Von Kotze for participating in this duel with Baron von Schrader has already been ordered , and he has announced iris vslllingness to surrender to the autinorl- ties. It is also stated that the affair will be seized upon by the liberals as an opportunity - tunity for making an interpellation in tine iteiclnstag , thin claim being made that the authorities Imew well that the duel was about to take place , but refused to interfere. If the matter is given an airing in time German - man Parllament , as well as In the courts , the names of personshigh in social and pa- lltlcal life in Germany , In fact of royally .It- self , cannot be kept out of time case. The story of the arrest of Count von Kolze , of his imprisonment on tire charge of nvril- hag letters over lire signature of "Werben ich" ( who am 17) ) accusing the emperor of immorality' , the account of the loss of tire dairy of Princess Charlotte of Saxe-Meinen- gen , the eldest sister of the emperor , the flight from Berlin of Dr. Fribe Friedman , the counsel for Von Kotze during his event- ful'trial , have all been told by correspondents - ents of the Associated press , After Von Kotze's imprisonment these anonymous letters - ters were still received by royal personages , and this , taken in connection with other circumstances - cumstances , led to tire release from prison of the court chamberlain and his restoration , apparently , to royal favor. It has been repeatedly - peatedly lnthrated that Emperor William was secretly endorsing the sending out of wtnolceulo challenges to line accusers of Von ICotze. The tribunal recently threw out of court a suit for slander width Ten ICotzo brought against Baron von Schrader. This suit followed - lowed immedlately after the flrst'of the duels between Baron von Schrader and Count von Kolze , in which hoth the combatants received - ceived flesh wounds. 'rho omcers of the two regiments of cavalry , with which Baron von Schrader and Count von Kolze arc connected , after having constituted themselves into courts of honor and duly investigated the charges of slander which Von ICotzo brought against Von Schrader decided that Von Schrader was entitled to an acquittal. More than this , they declared that Von Schrader was justified in iris reutarks , and they appealed - pealed to the emperor to dlamiss Von Kolze from the army. This verdict o0 the court of honor was endorsed - dorsed by Prince Frederjck of Hohenzollern , commander-in-chief of the garrison of Der- Iln , Emnperor William , however , declined to ratify this verdict , Prince Frederick accordingly - ingly resigned Ids conmand , removing to Bavaria , and stating that he could no longer associate with Count von Kotze. Otlrer mom- hors of tire nobility fulloaed tire exanrpie of Prince Frederick , and for a time there was a general exodus of prhrces from Iler- Inn.
