ENORMOUS OUR ean of Statistics at Washington has pub- a the returns of the foreign commerce of the jted States for the calendar year 1896. The figures show that the excess of exports of m chandise from this country over the imports for that period amounted to the enormons sum of this 2184. This breaks the record of 's excess of exports over imports The year that came nearest 10 i- was 1 when the excess of exports over Imports was $30%,279,590. Coming at the same time with other conditions analogous to those obtaining in early days at the time of prosperity that began in 1579, the figures of the Bureau of Statistics cause many persous to believe sinning. i Our export trede for December last was larger than for auv preceding month of the year. It was 41,897,895 greater thau that of December. 1895, I he expor the entire vesr 1895 amounted (0 £1,005,578,417, larger by $35.000,000 than those Calendar year 1891, which was the record Defore, though not so large as_those of the fiscal vear 1892, when exports reached $1,030,288,143. *'Fne figres for April, 1897. and che ten months of the fiscal year just raceived are as follows: EXPORTS. 1896....

Selling by longs to take profits near the ciose weakened prices fractiopaly. 71%cC Was bid when the gong sounded. The warket has been hammered hard by shorts during the past few days. This has resulted in an overso.d condition. The greater part of buying to- day was by shoris. There was very little outside interest shown. The bear clique who have been 50 prominent in the market of late were not try- ing to prevent prices from advancing. The mar- ket is becoming very much professional. St. Louis wired later in the day that the Hessian fly was dolng more damage in Missouri than at first thovght.~ This is the same old fly speculators use every year when they run short of news. The sections_ whence these Teports orleinate are not buying wheat. This is the best evidence that no serious damage is being done. 1t serves (o ad- vance an oversold market, Other than this no im- portance should be attached to the fly problem.
