ALBANY , N. V. , reb 6-Tbe annual report -
port of State Engineer AcUma devotes mucti
space to the commerce ot the state. Elab
orate tables have been compiled from the
records of the general government and other
sources dating back 200 years , giving the
values ot the trodo between the several
American colonies and Great Britain up to
the beginning ot the revolutionary war and
after that time and up ( o date the values ol
c\iorts from the leading Atlantic ntid gull
states.
Mr. Adam. ? says that the port of Now York ,
which a third of a century ago commanded
T3 per cent ot the total -exports of the * nation ,
today commands 37 per cent ot them. Sta
tistics presented show that New York foreign
commerce has never been so low as last year ,
Elnco 1830.
It Is In Its exports that New York's com
mercial losses have occurred In Imports It
almost holds Itfl own , at two-thirds ot the
nation's total. In exports it has ( alien from
two-thirds to a little more than one-third ol
the whole.
From 18SO to 1S07 the nation's foreign com
merce. Increased J300.000.000 In value During
that tlmo New York's Increased $20,000,000 ,
Boston's $63,000,000 , Galveatoo'a $29,000.000
and New Orleans' $17.000,000.
Thcso and similar timely and telling
statistics In Mr. Adin-s' report show that
the problem of retaining New York's com
mercial prcvjtlgo Is a grave and pressing one ,
the chief factor tn which ho believes to bo
adequate and efficient \vaterways , constantly
forcing the lowcU possible transportation
charges , and ample docka equipped with
everything that will expedite and minimize
tbo cost of handling commerce.
Mr Adams bcllcvcf ) lhat the present In
adequate condition of the canals Is largely
responsible for the decline of commerce at
New York City , and that the Improvements
now being made should not only be com
pleted , but steps must be taken ImmedlUcly
for better facilities and lower terminal
chargca for canal ( raffle , espechlly at Buffalo
and New York City. Ho believes that the
great danger to New York state Is that
without these improved conditions an enor
mous volume of trade Is now and will con
tinue to be diverted to points outside of thin
state , so that canals , railroads , and the
people generally will lose the profits that
should accrue from this traffic.
Mr Adams described the iirogrew ; that has
bccu made on the work of Improving the
canals , and presents a number ot tables
showing the total estimated cobt of the work
to be $10,000,000.

The fire communicate J itself to several brltl-

that the fire was of Inccqdlary origin There

Since Dr. Brown's sensational confession

Chicago association. Action on both letters
was deferred , In order to afford Dr. Drown
an opportunity for defense. When ho re
turned to this city on Saturday ho stated
that ho had no defense to make It was
decided that action on the resignation then

After the1 meeting of the trustees this

Hobert Honncr , a warm advocate of Dr.
Hall , said today the resignation ot Dr. Hall
had not been prompted by the financial con
dition of the church Mr. Honncr na ertcd
that the dissatisfaction with Dr. Hall by
members of the session commenced wltli
the Warsravvtak Incident last slimmer. Had
that not occurred there would never have
been. Mr. Bonnet believes , the slightest op
position to Dr. Hall. Herman \\.jrstawlalB

of misconduct wcro made against him and
ho was found guilty by the eesslcn anil

long " continued Mr Homier. "At the tlino
I huid Wnrs awlak should bo dismissed from
the church , or John i : Parsons was guilty
of a great libel on him "
This Incident , Mr Homier thought , tended
to make n breach between these who thought
Watszawlak should be dismissed and Dr.
Hall The diamatic Incident In the PIftin
A\cnno Presbyterian church lost cummer ,

Mr. Homier Bald that prior to the Wars
