JWpirt Tdkis More floods From the jU, S. Than From the United Kingdom. Washington, Oct. 23.—Ipiports irito Japan from the United States for the first time exceed those from the United Kingdom. In the six months ending June, 1903, the imports into Japan from the United States were 24,950,493 yen, against 23,803,656 from the United Kingdom. This is the first annual or semi-annual period itu which the im ports from the United States into Jap an have exceeded those of the United Kingdom. In 1881 the imports into Japan from the United States were less than 2,000,000 yen, against more than 16,000,000 from the United Kingdom in 1891, from the United States, a little less than 7,000.000 yen, against 20,000, coo from the United Kingdom in 1900, 62.000,000 yen from the United States, against 71.000,000 from the United Kingdom in 1901 and 1902, following the increase in the Japanese tariff, the total imports into that country showed a considerable reduction, and as a con sequence the imports from the United States in 1902 were but 48,652,824 j/en, against 50,364,029 yen from the United Kingdom. In the six months ending with June, 1903, the ^imports from the United States were 24,950,490 ^en, against 23,803,654 yen from the United Kingdom. In 1881 the United States furnished less than 6 per cent of thef imports into Japan and the United Kingdom furnished over 52 per cent. In 1902 the United States furnished 17.9 per cent of the total imports and the United Kingdom 18.5 per cent, while in the six months ending with June, 1903, the United States supplied 15 .per fent of the imports into Japan and the Unit ed Kingdom 14.3 per cent. One cause of the reduction in imports from the United States into Japan since 1900 is the fact that that country is in recent years buying more largely of her raw cotton from India. The total value of imports into Japan from India 'lias grown from less than 8,000,000 yeh in 1892 to 49,000,000 yen in 1902, and in the six months ending with June, 1903, was' 39.690,954 yen. The importations of ginned cotton into Japan from the United States amounted in 1900 to 1, 112,834 piculs and in 11992 to 731,800 pi- GRAVER Growers of Rotci, Carnations, Viototf, '4/ culs, while from India the imports of ginned cotton in 1990 fwere Ca •©•& The Sultan Is Adopting Milder Meth With the Insurgents Who v Are Surrendering IJlow.

The Bis Publishing Rouse of Rantf McNally & Co. Belns Forced Out ol Chicago. w.- Ghicago Oct. '22,-^-Labbr troubles, culminating in the strike of Franklin Union of Press Feeders, have driven one of the biggest map and' publishing houses in the. country out of Chicago. After being compelled to resort to the courts for an injunction, order against the' striking pressfeeders, the officers of Rand, McNally & Co. defin itely decided to remove their printing pl^nt from the city. Recent labor troubles caused the offi cers of the company »o abandon their plan to erect a $1,000,000 building here, and brought them to consider the prop osition of moving from Chicago, but it was not, until the pressfeeders put in demands for an increase of from $2 to $3 a week in wages that the removal plan took on a serious aspect.1'"' A CANINE'S QUEER TASTE. FMd of Lemons, He Will bo to Get Th«nt. Mam' 'Tricks Indianapolis News: Ted "is a fbx ter rier with some additions and varia tions, inherited, it is 1 said, frolai his mother. Indeed, a stranger unacquaint ed with his many talents, might, at first, insinuate that he was a cur, but none of Ted's many friends would ever think of mentioning the deficiencies his pedigree to Ted. He is the pried of the neighborhood His master, George W. Reid, is a mail carrier, and Ted is known to all the force. But it is to his mistress, Mrs. Reid, that Ted oves his education, and it'is upon her that he lavishes most of his canine 'affec tion. Mrs. Reid discovered Ted's appdtite for lemons last winter.. She had notic ed him playing with an orange, an^l it may be that at his first sight of a, lfcth on he con.fj.tsed the identity of the two fruits. She had a sack of lemons in her hand, and Ted began to beg for one most vociferously. Thinking the first taste would cure him of Jiis greediness, Mrs. Reid gave him lemon. -From that time Ted has made a daily demand for lemons, and he'has never been de nied. The yards in. his'.'neighborhood bear witness to Ted's appetite. Lemons are scattered about for nearly a block. When he is tired of playing Ted »will lie for hours wjth his nose close to a lemon, seemingly enchanted by the fra grance. Ted. had been' playing with ?in old lemon which he had long before sucked dry, when' his mistress remarked in an ordinary tone, paying no heed to t^ie dog, that she guessed she would get a fresh lemon Ted was instantly on the alert. No more.stale lemons for him! In an instant he was in the house be fore the cupboard where the fruft is kept, barking and leaping about on his hind legs in his excitement He was at the cupboard before his mistress had started .for it., The dog of the Cele brated "Old Mother Hubbard" could have, displayed no more intimate ac quajntance. with the contents of his.
