WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-The exami nation and appraisement of the presents re ceived by Miss Alice Roosevelt during her visit to the Orient has begun. The officials at the Georgetown custom house have begun to open up the twenty-seven boxes In which the presents were shipped and other souvenirs of the visit, which re sulted In a social conquest of the far east by the president's daughter. The customs 'officials say the task Is anything but an easy one owing to the necessity laid on them to appraise the goods on their foreign commercial value. Only about one-third of the boxes have so far been opened and Collector Nyman and his staff are said to be somewhat surprised as the valuation of their contents will ex ceed scarcely a few thousand dollars. Although tha presents have lain In one strong room. In the basement of George town postofflce building. In which tho customs house is located, for three weeks guarded night and day, there is no effort to get rid of them quickly. When the president instructed that no special hurry was desired and that they should take the regular course, the officials devoted their attention to appraising the large amount of merchandise that had already arrived. They were unusually busy owing to the importation of Christmas goods. As the work of appraising Miss Roose velt's presents is being done along what the other work of the office, it Is doubtful If the last box will have been examined and the valuation fixed before next week. Miss Roosevelt, who is on a vlnit to re latives in Massachusetts, will probably be home in time to receive them at the White House.

NEW YORK, Nov. 17 Bradstroets to morrow will say: Actlvltv is still the keynote of the Indus trial and commercial situation. Colder weather and the coming Christmas holi days have caused a heavy distribution in practically every section of the country save in the northwest, where the rather high temperatures and railway congestion prevent the full development. Railway earnings are enormous, but the widespread blockades are assuming a serious phase and tend to curtail production In some In dustrial lines. Manufacturing lines are re markably active. Consumption of Iron and steel Is proceeding at an enormous rate with no apparent sign of a let up In the Immediate future. Out-door construction work la being conducted on an enormous scale, and a shortage of labor Is reported from many sections. Commodity prices are steady at close to the highest. Collections on the whole are classd as good, but the holding of cotton for higher prices In the south and the car shortages in the north west render payments somewhat slow In places. Keal estate the country over is very brisk. The outlook for spring- trade is very promising, and In short, all advices Indicate tha existence of flourishing condi tions, tbe south, which ir In a better shape financially than for years before, being particularly prominent in this respect. Coal is in active demand, the movement ffuni the Great Lakes being especially heavy, owing to the near approach of the close of aavigaUoa. ttaUway car builders many of them are bringing their families and are making their homes on the Isth mus. The families of our laborers are solving the problem of chambermaids, house servants and domestics ot all classes ns well as being tho only laundry workers at the present time. We do not receive women for the work and only bring them along with tho Individual head of the family or send for them when the In dividual has been long enough In our serv ice to demonstrate his ability as a first class laborer, and has accumulated enough to rend for his family." Mr. 8mlf said that separate camps were maintained for the married men and their families and the bachelors, and theso camps were carefully policed. There has never been an Instance of such care exercised aa to comfort and proper living as has been and is being perfected on the iHthmus. tlons came to the department from young, men tn twenty-one different states in the union. Pennsylvania and Illinois furnished I the longest lists of young men who are ambitious to secure a paymaster s commis sion. Judging by the number already re ceived, the department expects to be del uged with letters from those seeking to enter the corps. As there are but twelve vacancies, the department will have ample material to draw from. PURIFICATION ATHLETICS President of Georgetown Inlverslty Says Institntioa la Netting; an Example (or All. WASHINGTON, Nov. 17. At a reception given in his honor by the society of the Alumni of Georgetown university last night, Rev. Dafld Hillhnuse Buel, tho new president of the university, reiterated his statements condemning brutality in foot ball and the prevalence of professionalism In many of the best known Institutions of learning in the country. President Buel, who a introduced by Justice White of the supremo court of the I'nlted States, said this is unfortunate that the public too often Judgea of the strength of a college by Its strength in the line athletics and that he wished to state his position regarding the new reg ulations now in force at Georgetown. He deplored the practice of employing men to uphold the standing of any college in sport. He said Georgetown in its fight for the purification of athletics was setting an example before the schools of the whole country. Gathering Crop Statistics. WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.
