Twelve good men and true have been spending two nights and a day locked up In a stuffy Jury room In the basement of the courthouse because they are unable to un derstand the term "unexplained possession." This Jury Is acting In the case of the state against Harvey Smith, charged with burglary, and It retired to deliberate on a verdict Tuesday afternoon. At o o'clock yesterday afternoon Judge Kstello sent for tho Jury and when Its weary members shambled Into the court room ho asked: ''Why can't you gentlemen agree? Are you divided on a question of law or on a question of facts?" "Your honor," said the foreman, "I think wo can teach an agreement pretty soon tf Just one thing In tho court's Instructions Is explained to us. Tho Instructions say that If wo find tho defendant to have been In re cent 'unexplained possession' of some of the stolen goods wo may take that circumstance sb an Indication of his guilt. Now, thera aro Just two words we do not understand and wo want the court to toll us what 'un explained possession' means." Tho court was up a treo. No such ques tion had over appealed to tho Judiciary for solution and thero wns absolutely no prece dent to fall back upon.

SURVEY OF FOREIGN TRADE itereitlng Bummary of Report! fiom Amtncan Ooniular Agents. EUROPE IS FIGHTING FOR SUPREMACY Blurting tn Adopt Onr Orrn .Methods to Coinltnt Further Invasion of Onr Products In I'firelRii I.nnds. WASH1NOTO.V. Feb. 13. The general urvey of foreign trade, Introductory to tho olume on "Commercial notations with tho United States," which formed the subject of special letters from the president and the ecrotary of stato to congress has Just been published by Frederick Emory, tha head of the Bureau of Foreign Commerce and com piler of this matter, In tho shapo of a special number of tho "Advanco Sheets of Consular Reports." As the tltlo Indicates, the survey Js a compact presentation of tho most Important and instructive features of tho enormous mass of trado Information which has been collected by tho United States consuls throughout the world dur ing the last year. The publication says that along with n natural notu of satis faction In tho annual reports of our consular officers for tho Inst year there is a strong hint of a most strenuous competi tion and opposition to American trado ad vancement abroad which may finally counterbalance our superior advantages to a certain extent and check our progress In the world a mnrkcts, unless we equip our selves meantime for tho ultimato phases of tho struggle. Our foreign trado today, as compared w'lth that of recent years, shows a gain, re markable because It has been achieved with but llttlo effort, for It Is set forth that tho appcaranco of tho United States as perhaps tho most formidable of all competitors In tbo fight for trade supremacy Is as astonish ing to ourselves as to our foreign opponents. Tho question for tho future, says the publication, Is whether wo can hold the position we seem about to gain, by means of our economy of production, greater labor efficiency and cheap raw materials or whether wo shall have to arm ourselves with weapons especially faBhtoncd for con trolling foreign trade, such ns more scientific export methods, better facilities of banking and transportation, more liberal credits and manufacturing for particular markets with Intelligent regard to climatic and raco requirements. Iiicroime In Trmlr. According to United States treasury re turns tho Imports of this country for last year In round numbers amounted to $330, 000,000 and tho exports to $1,478,000,000, an Increase of over $30,000,00 In tho Import trade, as compared with the preceding year, and of $202,430,000 in exports. Of tho ex ports, the percentage of manufactured goods rose to n very considerable extent, nnd our Industrial growth continued last year at n rapid pace, enabling us to tako less finished goods from other countries and to furnlBh more. Tho relatlvo cheapness of American products has given them pre-eminence. It is shown, and tho remarkable growth of tho foreign demand for our Iron and steel Is cited as a striking Instance of what under cutting In prices will do. Foreign observers, particularly the Drltlsh and tho Germans, aro shown to be keenly alive to what'is being accomplished by tho greater efficiency of our Industrial methods and exhibit a purpose, to profit by thera. and then to fight us with our own weapons. A great number of expressions from various sources aro presented, showing the wholesome respect and fear with, which tho powers of the world look upon tho Unttcd States In the trado area of the universe. Tho concentration of capital, our suddenly acquired financial In dependence, the excellence of our foreign consular review, and, as most potent, the valuable practical business education which our sons receive, aro reasons advanced by foreign commentaries for our remarkable advancement In trade. As particularly significant, a writer in the London Times tells of a few evenings spent with some students of a large American college, whero, to his great amazement, the youths. Instead of discussing the lighter sides of life, dis coursed cleverly on questions that arose out of tho business In which their sires wero engaged. This would be looked upon as the worst of bad form at an English unl versify, but to It is attributed American success In business. Importance of Mcrclinnt Mnrluc The importanco of building up a merchant marine to further our trado with foreign nations is touched upon at somo length and the benefits of direct steamship transporta tion emphasized, tho good effects of the latter being stated to be particularly ap parent In the cases of Peru and Turkey, in each of which the establishment of better steomshlp transportation facilities Immedi ately led to a marked Increase In trade To a lack In this respect is attributed the slow growth of our trado with South America. Tho entrance of the south into tho trade of the Orient Is spoken of as n novel feature of our expansion. In tho production nnd oxportntton of cotton the southern states have mado gigantic strides of late. Tbo acquisition of tho Hawaiian and Philip pine Islands, It Is declared, has converted our Pacific slope from a mere outpost of trade Into a hive of commerce, whtlo Cuba and Porto Rico offer the southern states convenient stepping stones to Latin-Amerl can trade. Taking the great geographical divisions In alphabetical order It is stated that Africa Is rapidly becoming a promising field for American enterprise, wherever artificial restrictions aro not Imposed. In the wpst there is an increasing demand for Amerl can goods. In East Africa it is notlceablo that In Madagascar, whoro Franco Imposes n tariff discriminating in favor of its own products, our cotton goodB trade, onco con' slderablo, has been practically destroyed whereas In Zanzibar and Somali country and Abyssinia, where such restrictions do not exlf.t, it continues to grow. Tho war in South Africa has deranged the trade, but a great Increase In American trade Is looked for when peace shall havo been restored On Our Own Continent. On our own continent wo still control moro than ono-half of Canada's trade; with Mexico our trado relations are moat satis factory and our goods appear to bo making steady progress in Central America. In this connection attention Is called to the Increasing Investment of German capital In Costa Rica, Guatemala and Nicaragua, which Is estimated at $67,000,000. In tho West Indies, and especially the British possessions, our trado Is constantly growing, and these Islands draw tho bulk of Imported food supplies from us, as well as an Increasing proportion of manufac tured goodB. In Cuba and Porto Rico sufficient time has not yet elapsed, It Is stated, for rccupera tlon from tho war and the readjustment of Industrial nnd commercial conditions but In both islands trade Is beginning to revlvo with tho promise of gradual de velopment on the lines of closer Intimacy with tho united states. In South America the trade has de veloped slowly, except In Argentina ond Peru, where It has Increased rapidly of late. As a matter of keen Interest to tho whol commercial world, the progress of events iu China and Its bearing upon trade Is dls cussed at length. The United States Is Bhown to have suffered as seriously. If not more so, than any other nation, from tho fact that thebulk of our exports had been disposed of In North Chlna--tho scene o most active disturbance. A decided incrcaso of our exportation to Asiatic Ilussla has taken place and the winter of 1839-1D00 witnessed an enormous Import of American products Into the mur province. Japan is an important gateway for our hlncse trade. Our trade with that coun- ry Itself Is steadily growing. The fears of Japanese competition which a few years go caused some concern In the United States havo not been home out and it is stated that Japan may be able to compete with us at somo points In tho future, but Its general development seems to mean Increasing purchasing power and a larger consumption of our goods.

This is the statement mado by Manager R. M. Welch to tho prors yester day ntternnou. Mr. Welch further said guards would be employed In order to pre vent tho men who havo qulto work from committing nuy depredations. Tho trouble has been caused by a reduc- Ion in tho wages of tho machine workers, which amounts, Mr. Welch stntes, to 2 cents per barrel on wood work and ft cents ,er barrel on whisky barrels. It Is understood tho factory has i t:cugh manufactured product on hand to complete Its existing contracts nnd that there will be no hurry In reopening tho works. All that Is desired Is protection. Mannser Welch called upon Mayor Kelly yesterday nnd nt tho request of the former three special policemen wero sworn In to gunrd tho prop erty. Tho pay of thcso men will como from tho cooperage company and not from the lty. Meetings of the machine coopers r.ro held daily at tho headquarters of tho labor unions it tho Packers' National l.nnk building and yesterday tickets for n prlzo mosquerad" ball, given by local union No. 10 for the benefit of tbo strikers were placed on sale. This ball will bo given In Washington hnll, Omaha, Friday evening. Thero was talk on tho streets Inst n.ght that the strike would spread, but thin may bo merely a rumor on account of tho elci.ltiR down of tho works. Fow coopers nro employed nt te packing houses now, ns compared with old times. At Swift's only four or five men nro kept on the tinvrnll nnd llio snmo ttinv lui s.ald of the balance of tho packing houses. Tho coopers now out of employment will bo compelled, it Is rumored, to seek other Holds, ns the closing of tho cooperage plant will throw so many out of work thnt places In the packing houses cannot bo found for nil. Tho llttlo disturbance nt tho plant yeutir- day forenoon wns not considered serious, although Chief Mitchell went over to In vestigate. For a long tlmo tho owners of this plant havo been trying to sccuro additional ground In order to erect additions to tho present building, but tho South Omaha Land com pany has blocked tho vacating of certain streets asked for by Welch nnd thero Is no telling when tho contemplated Improve ments wfll be made.
