President May Vary Order. Ixoeptions to this ordinary course of ad- ministration may, however, be made at any time by special direction of the president f he sees fit to call on the chief of staff to_give information or advice or receive instructions directly. The chief of staff is detailed by the presi- dent from officers of the army at large not below the grade of brigadier gen The successful performance of the duts of the position requires what the title de- notes, a relation of absolute confidence and personal accord and sympathy between the chief of staff and the president, and neces- rily also between the chief of staff and & Secretary of war.

This paragraph and subsequent para- graphs transfer all authority'in the War department on the chief of staff under the direction of the secretary of war. The remainder of the order relates to the duties of other members of the general staft and gives ihe provisions of the law. The general staff will become an advisory and investigating body and will 'prepare plans for the organization and mobiliza- tion of the army, collect information and make preparation for plans of campalgns and other actions. The officers of the general staff assigned to duty in Washington will be divided into divisions such as may be directed by the chief of staff. Officers assigned to divi- sions, departments and separate brigades will serve under the immediate orders of the commander of such separate divisions and departments. Another general order has been issued amending the regulations of the army to meet the changed conditions which the gen- -eral staft law makes necessary. Young Gives Up Army Command. Two general orders will be {ssued by Beneral Young tomorrow as chief of staft of the army under the new law.

None of its contemporaries have ever at- temped to rival it, but this has not been made an excuse to allow the paper to deterforate in any degree. It is constantly maintained at The Bee stundard—the best. Its con- tents are selected with as much care as though it were a high- priced separate publication rather than a magazine supplement to the admittedly best Sunday news- paper published in the west. Its makeup s neat and attractive, and its general tone is all that one would expect from a high grade magazine. And. it's up-to-the- wminute, alwa ACES FOR AMERICA'S CUP begin on Thursday of pext week, and already public interest in two continents is greatly aroused over the outcome. No patriotic Ameri- can expects that the famous old cup will leave this side, while every patriotic Briton is equally fervent In his hope that Sir Thomas Lipton's third attempt will be crowned with success. On the first page of the next number of The Illustrated Bee will be found a splendid picture of Re- liance, the cup defender, made from a photograph taken and copy- right by Burr Mclntosh. Inside will be found other excellent plc- tures of matters connected with the yacht racing, and some ac- count of the cup, how it was first won and how it has since been battled for.

UNITED STATES TAKES MOST OF HEMP Imports Also Show a Gain, Though Not as Great as Exports, of Which United States is Securing a Growing Sh (From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.—(Special.)—The commerce of the Philippine islands con- tinues to increase, notwithstanding the ad- verse agricultural conditions that have pre- vailed during the past year. This fact is demonstrated from a summarization of the trade figures for ten months ending April 30, 1%03, the official returns for which period have been received and published in the monthly bulletin issued by the insular bureau of the War department In the month of April, 198, the total value of imports and exports of merchan- dise was $6,783,77, as against 83, in 1902 and $3,867,362 In 1901 For ten months ending April 30, 1%8, the trade amounted to $63,703,263, while for the corresponding 1n 1901 it was $44,199,568. The great bulk of this gain has been due to an increase in exports, shipments from the islands for the month of April, 1%3, approximating nearly $,000,000, made up for the most part of heavy cargoes of hemp, in fact the largest monthly output since American occupation, if not in the history of the archipelago, and from present indi- cations the figures for the fiscal year end- ing June %, 1%3, will show a balance of trade In favor of the Islands, a position they have not occupled for the last seven years, or from the date of the fnsurrection against Spain in 186 Prior to the latter year, however, and for a perfod extending s far back as 1882, the shipment of Philip- pine products had Invariably been greater than the value of foreign purchase. This tact Is worthy of careful analysis when it is considered that the volume of trade at the present time is larger than in any previous year, regardiess of the interrup- tion to business by reason of quarantine restrictions as a result of cholera, heavy losses owing to the destruction of crops by locusts and an almost total annihilation of farm cattle due to the ravages of rinder- pest, all of which naturally had a depress- ing effect, and much credit is due for the enterprise displayed in meeting these ob- stacles without actual loss in the aggregate amount of business transacted. Distribution of Exports. The aistribution of exports during the last three years, according to the principal agri- cultural products, is shown as follows, the exports being to all countries: Hemp . Sugar . ‘Tobacco Copra ... Other articles Totals .$19, The most noticeable increase in value Is found under hemp and copra, the trade in both of these articles having made excep- tionally large gains during the last year. Of the hemp produced and credited to ex- portation. in 193 the United States easily ranks as the principal buyer, recelving nearly $10,000,000 worth, or 57 per centum of the total as gainst 3§ per centum of the shipments in 100L . Although more than twosthirds of the Philippine exports. consist ot hemp, it may prove of interest to note the gomparative value of United States trade in. the leading commodities as enumerated above: * Exported to Ten Months, United States, 1801, 1902, 1903, Hemp . 42,106,630 $5,129,974 § 9,911,549 Bugar CTedT2 23364 921,150 Tobacco . bz saf 46,070 Copra. -] 068 Other articles... 62712 ~ 17,02 12488 Totals ........$5,212,201 35,548,714 $11,012,765 Imports Into Islan: With regard to imports into the islands, while thelr value for the ten months of 1808 does not show so large a galn as might have been expected under more favorable conditions, nevertheless an average monthly trade of nearly §2760,00 has been main- tained, this being somewhat in excess of | the showing for the year previous. ‘The | tmportation of rice is still heavy and will | in all probability continue so for some time, | though 1t is hoped that the home produc- tion, which is belng stimulated, will tend to greatly reduce the purchases from abroad. Aside from rice imports, which reached nearly §7.600,000 worth in 1%, the United States is supplylng over one-sixth of the trade In other commodities, steady increase being made in such lines as wheat flour, practically the total Importation com- ing from this country, canned salmon, meat products, illuminating ofls, machinery of different kinds, paper, cotton goods, and leather manufactures, principally boots and shoes, the figures showing a constant ond growing demand for the American make of shoe. MILITARY TOURNEY OPENS Krug Park with a Credit. able Drill, The Millard Rifles began the week’s ma- neuvers In the military tournament at Krug park last night with company ma- neuvers. A large assemblage cheered the company as it marched onto the parade ground just south of the roller coaster. Driling in close order, they followed through the manual of arms, company marchings and platoon drill with remark- able precision. Then they opened out anua drilled by squads in extended order, giving especial attention to the firings. The most Interesting feature for the spectators was held until the last. The company spread out s skirmishers and made a feint attack. First one wing and then the other would rush forward, kneel and fire and go oh again until they had reached a point from whence to charge. Then the bayonets flashed, a scattering and crackling line of fire swept from their rifies and they rushed on the enemy with & cheer and drove them to the rear, Afterward a picked squad of the Rifies gave an exhibition drill in the silent manual and in bayonet exercises. To finish with there was a “spell down" of the company. A program similar to the one of last night will be given tonight and tomorrow night the other local companies and members of other Nebraska companies and the Twent- second infantry will Join in the tournament. | STUHT-BACK CASE COMES UP Contest Over Seat in Counmell from First Ward is Set for Hear- Before Vinson The case of Stuht aguinst Back for the seat in the city council from the First ward will come up before Judge Vinson- haler today.

Few Americans have an adequate concep- tion of the greatness and importance of the manufacturing interests of the country. In fact It is almost Impossible to concelve It, even when we read in the census reports that there are morc than 500,00 establish- ments for the manufacture of some article of commerce. And these establishments are using capital to the amount of $9,835,- 086,909, and employing 297,174 clerks and of- ficlals and wage earners to the number of 5,316,802 But If the mind refuses this high hurdle what is the mental condition of the fellow who tries to jump the fact that $7,345,14,765 worth of raw material is consumed annu- ally by this array of factories, and makes out of this material manufactured products worth altogether $13.014.257.403? That sum is nearly ten times the authorized capitaliza- tion of the greatest corporation on earth, the United States Steel corporation. It rep- resents the actual value of the states of New York and Pennsylvania combined. The product in 15% was less by nearly $4,000,000,000, ‘while that of 1550 was only a little more than $1,000,000,00. We rank first among the manufacturing nations of the earth, for we produce, according to the most accurate authorities, about half as much as all of Europe combined, the United Kingdom ranking next, Germany third, France fourth and Austria-Hungary fifth Further statistics show that 2,000,000 peo- ple more than 10 years of age are engaged in productive Industry. More than one-third are in agriculture, a fifth fn domestic and personal service, a fifth in trade and trans- portation, the professions hold a meager twentieth, while a fourth are in a manu- factures and the mechanical pursuits, In- cluding mining.

METEORITE FALLS IN CHICAGO Seventy-Five-Pound Ma, Metal Drops in Alley. of Burning People living on the north side were awakened at 1:30 o'clock yesterday morn- Ing by a meteorite, which fell in an alley in the rear of 3 Whiting street. Flames of intolerable Intensity and sulphurous fumes fssued from the mass of metallic substance for about twenty minutes, while the nelghborhood resounded with the ex- cited shouts of the beholders. James Frost and his wife were first awakened by the shrill, hissing sound and the pecullar flumination, as It was near- est their back porch that the extra-terres- trafl visitor came. Frost described it in this way: “The light was of a green color for five or ten seconds, and came from two spots on the chject. Then it went out, and smoke that had a smell Ilike sulphur poured forth for about the same length of time, giving way.to a reddish light. Then there was more smoke, followed by a white light. . Imagine the strongest white glare you ever saw, and then think of it magnified ten times. It was so strong that I had to turn my head, although 1 was behind a screen .door, and I saw nelghbors holding papers and cloths be- fore their eyes for shields.” No one in the nelghborhood had the femerity to approach the meteorite until daylight. Then Frost took i. to his home. Its weight was about seventy-five pounds, and its dimensions are about eight by elghteen Inches. It is porous In parts, but some sections look ilke slag, while still others have the appearance of iron and copper. There are numerous small cavi- tles, and the whole substance is not unlike what may be found in lava beds about the craters of volcanoes. Minute pleces from the meteorite were shown Weather He sald that although it fell in a thunder- storm which he had predicted, he would not pass an opinion on it. Mr. Frost will show the eubstance to an astronomer or a geologist today.—Chicago Record-Herald. TIMELY WORDS OF CHEER Impressive Illustration of the Good They May Do the Dis- couraged. “Sometimes a word of cheer is the mak- Ing of a young man's whole fortune,” re- marks B. M. Clark, a prosperous old farmer in Shelby county. He knows, because such & word made him. He was one of four young men whc left Shelby county over- land in January, 180, for the California gold flelds. At first the weather was fine, and they enjoyed their ride by day and their stops in the woods at night. As they sat around their campfire they bullt many air castles. Some were large and handsome. Some were more humble. Clark speculated on how he would lift the mortgage from his father's farm. But when they crossed Macon county it was raining. The water came down In torrents. Then it turned to sleet and snow. The young men became discouraged. One night they camped fn, Old Bloomington. Their air castles had faded and they resolved that next morning they would turn back. The next morning, however, they found to their astonishment that somebody In the night had painted on one side of the cover of their wagon these inspiring words in big letters: “Success to these brave young men’ These ‘*brave young men" looked at each other sheep- ishly. How could they return to Shelby county with these words on thelr wagon canvas? “It was my day to drive” says Mr. Clark. ** “Which way is it, boys? I asked. All looked west, but said nothing. I led the | oxen around and headed them toward the land of the setting sun. We encountered | many graver obstacles than the Missouri | blizzard before the long journey was com- | pleted, but never thought of turning back again. We succeeded fairly well, but that silent encouragement from our Macon county friend was worth more to us than all the gold we took out of the hills of California. It taught us never o turn back when we had set out to do u thing."—Kan- sas City Journal.
