R Omaha, Neb. for the fiscal year 1902 wan $56,071,730, and the disbursement was I70,4io,941.33. . Karelaro "'nirre. The market characteristics ot the foreign commerce of the United States during the fiscal year ended June 30,12, were a de crease of $106,04090 m exports and an In crease of $K0, 148,78 In Imports. The total ex ports of the year were It, 381,719, 401, of which f 1,355,481,861. was. of domestic production; the total imports were" I903,;;20,!M8, making the excess of exports' over imports $178,398, 463. The decrease In exports Is chiefly due to the tnusual home rternand, to the short age In the corn crop of ,1901 and to a' reduc tion In prices of certalnrcat staples ex ported. The unusual demand of the home market for manufactures of iron and steel caused jt reduction of $18,768,758 in the do mestic exports of Iron and steel manufac tures ; the shortage in the corn supply, due to the drouth of 1901, caused a reduction of $67,361,099 In the value of corn and corn meal exported and' the" fall of upward of 1 cent per pound In tile average price of cotton, as compared with 1901, resulted In a reduction of $23,021,624 In the value of cotton experts, although the quantity ex ported In 1002 was greater than that of 1901. Aside from these exceptional cases, the ex port figures of -the year compare favorably with those of preceding years. The Increase to Importations was chiefly dus to an enlarged demand b- manufactur ers for .raw materials fur use in manufac turing, the Increase In the importations of manufacturers' materials of all classes be ing $69,732,221, and to these was added an Increase of $19,708,269 in articles manufac tured ready for consumption and $U,8."9,750 in thosa Included in the class "articles of voluntary use, luxuries," etc.. while In arti cles of food there was a reduction of 121,- " From little things men go on to great Dutch Proverb A homely saying but a true one, and. one that can with . all justice be applied to many f the purchasers of Gorham Silver From such a "little thing" as half-a-dozen teaspoons, for instance, they " go on " to the' "great thing" of a com plete service of table silver. It may take years, but Gorham pat terns are always to be matched. All responsible jewelers keep it to VSLLE, 151,457. In lrou and steel alone the impor tation of articles partly or wholly manu factured increased $9,305,458, bringing the total imports of iron and steel manufactures to a point higher than at any time since 1893. The increase of $80,148,783 In im portations has brought the total import fig ures of the year to a point higher than ever before, the total value of Importations i of 1902 belLK $903,320,9,43, against $866,400, 922 In 1893, the highest record of preceding years. This increase, as already noted, oc curs chiefly in manufacturers' materials. Trade with Dependencies.

I Tho 1 a Inn ...I rrnnrl whv . V, a vl n expressed the opinion that a somewhat similar statute authorized the redemption of silver In gold. If that be the Intention, I submit It would be better to express the same in specific terms. It has been found necessary, in order to maintain the parity of greenbacks and treasury notes, to ex pressly provide for the redemption thereof KEPT HER CHILDREN. The Riant Food Broaaht Them Back to Health. . . . Food purchased from curiosity saved the lives of two children in a family In Ulysses, Wis. The mother says: "W had bought t package of Orape-Nuts, attracted by Us Peasant, suggestive name, and found it a fl"8""' ?d' ,Al mJ &-months-old baby liked It, I fed it to her, and' found it aa satisfactory aa Itaby Food, which I had been using and paying 50c for a much smaller package. "Shortly after this three of the children came down with the whooping cough, my oldest one was taken with pneumonia, and the little 3-year-old strained her stomach that I finally woke up to the fact that a change must be wrought and that at once. "I shall always believe that divine in spiration whispered 'Crape-Nuts.' At first I did not give the solid part; I poured boll- ug water on it and let it stand until the water had drawn out some of the strength, added some rich, sweet cream and gave the little one a few spoonfuls at a time, She kept it. down and it nourished her, so that after a while I could feed her the Grape-Nuts themselves until she got strong, and the is todsy aa rugged aa I could wish. Meanwhile the oldest girl was unable to turn her head or swallow solid food and for weeks her strength was kept up by Grape-Nut softened In cream, riven a spoonful at a time until she got strong enough to take other food. They are both well and strong now, and I feel that I owe Grape-Nuta for two of my hearty, healthy children." Nam given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Uku. in gold, t am not unmindful of the claim that parity will naturally continue so long as tho government accepts silver In pay ment of revenues. If this be true, there would be no danger to the government should the two coins be made interchange able. Should It be deemed wise to provide for the exchangeability of gold and sliver, then national bank note might be made payable in gold. In this way there would be shifted to the banks the greater burden of fur nishing gold for domestic use and for ex port and this, in the event of an unfavorable balance of trade, might prove of great ad vantage to the government. It would be manifestly unjust aa well as illogical to re quire banks to redeem their notes In gold so long as legal tender silver remains Irre deemable and unexchangeable. Merchant Marine. On June 30, 1902, the merchant marine of the United Statea, including all kinds cf documented shipping, comprised 24,273 vessels, of 5,7(7,90$ gross tons. On June 10, 1901, it comprised 24,067 vessels, of 6,624,218 gross tons. American shipping was greater in vol ume on June 30, . 1902, than ever before in our history.' The tonnage losses of the civil war have been more than made good. New vessels of the year have been of su perior types. Including the largest trans atlantic ateamer ever built In the United States, the fastest steamer for Asiatic trade yet built in any country, and the largest steamer ever launched into the waters of the Pacific. The total tonnage completed was a trifle less than In 1901, but the shipbuilding In progress during the year, In the value of materials and amount of wages, has never been equaled In this country. It the rate of progress during the past few years could be maintained, the United States would in time become a competitor with Germany for the second place as a ship building nation. Ths outlook for the cur rent fiscal year Is not, however, so prom ising. A large amount of unfinished ton nage will be launched and completed. Few new contracts for ocean steamers have been reported. y The growth of American shipping has been entirely . within the domestic trado. The tonnage registered for foreign trade is smaller than a year ago, but it Is more efficient, as the proportion of steamers has increased. American vessels carried 8.8 per cent of our exports and imports, a small gain over the percentage of 1901. For several years American capital In increasing amounts has been Invested In ocean steamers under foreign flags. Re cently this movement has taken form In the organization of an American steamship company, which, in the tonnage, average speed and size of its steamers, equals any two combined of the world's great steam ship companies. Yejt. only an insignificant proportion of this company's tonnage about one-eighth Is under the American flag. The tendency noted, and the organization ot this company show conclusively that abund ant American capital is disposed to engage In commercial enterprises on the sea, and that, under existing conditions, the ready outlet for it is afforded by resort to foreign flags. American capital prefers investment under foreign flags because It costs more to build ocean steamers in the United States than abroad, and, once built, it costs more to operate steamers under the American than under foreign flags. Ilanklns; Affairs. Recent events not only Justify but, en force the conclusion that our banking sys tem Is Imperfect. During certain months of the year interest, rates dropped danger ously low dangerous In the sense that apecnlaUon waa Invited thereby... When the time' arrived Tortnoving crops," rates ad vanced alarmlaair .high. Meantime the price of government bonds rendered the maintenance of national bank circulation unprofitable, and this class ot currency was retired -with great rapidity. The department exerted every influence within its authority to counteract this nat ural contraction. During the early spring the surplus revenues were deposited with national banks upon satisfactory security, but preference was given to such institu tions as maintained their limit of circula tion. Then, during the months when rates of interest were low, no deposits were made. The frequent purchase and retirement of bonds renders the amount available for cir culation gradually lees, while a rapidly growing population, additional banking fa cilities and expanding trade suggest the need ot an ever-Increasing circulation. I therefore believe the time has arrived when it will be necessary to adopt one of two policies: either the government debt must be perpetuated asj a basis for national bank circulation, and additional bonds issued as occasion may require, or some other system must be provided. I see no objection to the issuance of cir culation based upon general credits, if properly safeguarded. Neither do I believe it necessary to make currency thus issued first lien upon assets. A very small tax upon circulation would be sufficient to cover any possible loss. The government actuary has demonstrated that a tax ot one-eighth of 1 per cent upon circulation would have covered all loss from Jhe beginning of our national banking system to the present time, had each bank maintained Ita limit of circulation. Public Deposits. At present the purchase of outstanding government bonds for the credit of the sinking fund affords the only method of returning surplus public revenues to tho channels of hade after they have been once covered into the treasury. The de partment is authorized to deposit current Internal revenue and other receipts, ex cept customs, with national banks upon satisfactory security, but this method af fords very tardy Telief In case of mone tary stringency. On the other band, the purchase of bonds invites a contraction cf national bank circulation for the purpose of disposing of the bonds pledged for its security at the advanced price which usu ally prevails whenever the government be comes a purchaser. Thus the object sought to be attained is counteracted. If authority were granted to make deposits without se curity after special examination and at such rates of Interest as the secretary of the treasury might determine, quite an element ot elasticity would be provided whenever a surplus of revenues existed. By advancing or lowering the rate of In terest an equilibrium could be maintained throughout the country, and the Interest charge would more than cover any loss. But if it should be deemed unwise to permit the loaning of public funds without specific security, it certainly would be well to authorize deposits direct from the treas ury, and, ' as now, upon satisfactory se curity. If such authority had existed dur ing the last few months the something more than $20,000,000 which waa paid io the owners of government bonds would have been deposited, in a large number ft reserve cities throughout the country, and the relief afforded would have been equally permanent and more widely appreciated.

MISSOURI MEMBER CONDEMNS ROOSEVELT Measure Is rasacU Ulthnat Division After Attempt to Include John Mitchell In Kalnry 1. 1st Is Voted Down. WASHINGTON, Dec. 3. The house todnv passed the bill appropriating $"i0.000 to defray tho expenses of the strike commis sion and then adjourned until Friday, when the London dock charge bill will be con sidered. There were two hours discussion on tho commission bill, in which the president's action was highly commended, except br Mr. Burton (Mo.) who contended that the commission was created without authority of law and constitution. . There was some criticism ot the elaune allowing double salaries to members of tho commission now in government employ, and also of that leaving the amount of com pensation of members to the president. But all amendements were voted down. Tho bill was passed without dlvUion. When the house reconvened the soeaker announced the appointment of the following committees: To Vlnit the Naval Academy Messrs. Watsonrf (Ind.), Adams, (Ta.). and Clark. (Mo.). To Visit the Military Academy Messrs. Hull, (la.), Steele, (Pa.), and DeArmond. (Mo.). The house then went into committee of the whole, Mr. Grosvenor (O.), In tho chair, and took up the coal strike commission bill. Before the discussion began Mr. Gaines (Tenn.) stated that he di-sided to .offer an amendment. The chair having -ulad that amendments were not in order at I his time, Mr. Cannon In chnrgo of the bill, agreed that the amendment phould be read for Information. It proposed to place rn thraclte on the free list. President's Action Illeaal. Mr. Burton (Mo.), a member of tho ao propriations committee, to whom Mr. Can non yielded, declared that he could. not sud port the bill. Tho president, he said, had no.lgal authority to creat the commis sion and the bill, besides placed $50,000 in the president's hands without any limita tion. , . Mr. Livingston (Ga.) and Mr. Underwood (Ala.) supported the bill, although, they agreed that the president's action was Ir regular. Mr. Bailey (Ga.) said tho president had acted patriotically. Mr. Cochran (Mo.). Mr. Feeley, (III.), Mr. Gaines (Tenn.) and Mr. Maddox (Ga.), endorsed the act of tho president. Mr. Hemenway (Ind.) and Mr. Lacey (la.) warmly defended the course of the presi dent, the latter characWlzInz it as one of the "boldest" acts in the history of the executive. Mr. McDermott (N. J.) pointed out that the strike commission had no power be-hlnd It. He thought It should be given power to make an investigation and report its findings to congress. Mr. Cannon (III.) argued that the bill should pass In the form In which it was presented. If the president's action had been without authority of law or constitu tion, it had been taken In response to an overwhelming publlo sentiment. - , i Mr. Griffith (Ind( offered an amendment to provide Jot the payment of, the expenses of John Mitchell, president, of the United Mine Workers. He extolled the service of Mr. Mitchell in bringing tho strike to an end. ( Mr. Cannon paid a high tribute to Mr. Mitchell, but said be did not believe Mr. Mitchell would endorse such a "cheao John" proposition. The amendment was voted down. The bill then passed without division although there were several dissentlna voices on the democratic side. The house adjourned until Friday.
