R.
PPM,
This young lady is looking
into the baking powder ques
tion in a practical way. She
will find that, using Cleve
land's Baking Powder, and a
Cleveland receipt book, she
can make cake and rolls finer
than the baker's and save half
the cost.
Besides, she will be sure
that they contain no alum
and are absolutely pure and
' wholesome.

aire the iliiif of Hie Purc.m of bU
lbliis villi referentc lo tin" ccmclitlnii of Hie
fficlan enmuioieP of tlio 1'iiileil States,
"f Ki not ire th.it tliric is tlm t.liRlit-t
e.iiiv for ,niicly," mM Mr. Austin. "It U true
Unit the value of our txpnitq in the nine months
uiilliii: with M, nth is :J millions Ii-.-.-4 llian in Hip
oire.poii(linj; uiontlii of lii'-t jn.ir. Yet the

t Ions tli.it tlic fiilllnt, nil dncs not indicate a
tlfcro.tfc in the popul.iiil- of Anieriein produrts
aluoiid or a reduction In the demand for them.
On the eemlrary, I think we may eonsider our
telves very forttuule Hut our export figures held
1i .is well as they did.
Tho thief icriiiitlon in our exports." continued
Mr. Au'llii, "can be traied to the destruction of
our com nop by the drouth of lat .vcar. Corn
l.as beeoine n) iuipoitauL a f.tctor in our export
trade, both In lit. tulur.il (-tale and in the con-dcii-cil
form of beof and pork, tli.it a loss of one
fourth or one-Mill d of Hie cnormouo nop means
a great iciliietlon in Hie surplus. In the last
lour je.ir.s the exportation of corn lias averaged
about 200,000,000 bmhvls pel annum. In the
pre-ent llcal year it will not amount to one-fifth
of that quantity. In (ho nine months endina
with Maieh, 1002. the exportation of corn
amounted to only 24 nullum bulicLs, against 113
million "bushels in tile corresponding- mouths of
la.-t jear. The-e are the preliminary figures, but
they do not differ much fiom the completed
licurcs which we shall hive n fortnight licnec.
The value of the torn and corn meal exported in
t lie past nine months was but 15 million dollars,
iic.iinst OS millions in the ccrrc.-pomliiur months
ol the pieccdiiifr .voar.
"Hut that Is not all of the effect of the loss
of the coin nop. Tho (.hortiij-e of corn at home
lia compelled iiiiny fanners to n.ce a larger share
of oats in tho feed of their live stock, and as n
rcMill the xiluo of the expoitation oT oats and
oat meal in Hie f months ju.-l enurd vv.n 4',
million-, against U'.i millions in the Mine months
of last year. In tlime two items of corn and
oats, in wliidi tliu leduction is wliolly due to
the diouth of lat jear. Hie exportation have
fallen 57 million dollais, while the total reduc
tion in the xalue of all c.xpoits is but 50 mil
lion. "Another Hem which shows a material reduc
tion in value of exports is cotton, jet this is
wholly due to a fall In pi ice abroad and not to
a reduction in the quantity exported. 0:i the
coivtiary, exports have increased materially in
quantity, all hough the value has fallen. The
tolal exportation of cotton in the !) months end
ing with Jlauli was .,074.M9,42l pounds against
,710,503,107 pounds In tin Mine months of list
sear. This is an uniea-c of :UI million pounds;
jet, owing to the icdiiilinn in price, the value
is actually 13 million dollars less thin in the
Fame months of last ,vi-ai, the figures for the I)
months just ended being till million dollais,
against Ml millions in the Mine months of last
jear.
"Thus, in corn and oats, In which the i educ
tion is wliolly due lo the diouth of j-t jear, and
in cotton, in which the reduction is due to a
fall in prices abio.id and not tu a reduction
in quantity cxportt-d, the rrduetion in value of
exports amounts to 70 iiilllicn dollais, while the
pi and total of exports shows a reduction of but
Hi million,
"Regarding the bilge Increase of hiipnrtattcvis,"
runtimicd Mr, Airtlu, "I k'o no caue for nnxl'ly,
but rather the reverie. We have not icceived the
details of the Mireh impm t figures; but judging
from tho-c of the preceding months, the increase
is chiefly in manufacturers' raw materials. In the
8 months ending with February the increas in
manufacturers' materials iiupoitcd wjs 57 million
dollars, while the total Increase of Imports was
but 71 million dollais; and it Is probable that the
details of tho March llguiea when received will
not materially change this condition in our im
jwit trade,
"At the rlk of being considered a Mitlstlcnl
Marl Tapley," concluded Mr, Austin, "I venture
the assertion tint theie Is nothing discouraging
nliout the conditions on either tide of our for
eign commerce account, Ho long as the iiiciease
in iuiioitallons is chielly in .u tides which we
cannot pioiluce at home and indicates a giowth
in manufacturing, the increase will be welcomed
by all; and en long as the reduction in exporta
tion is due wholly to abnormal conditions, which
may bo looked upon as only temporary, wo need
feel no serious niuelcly on that score, especially
as we arc still to have, even In this apparently
adverse jear, a favoiable balance of tiado of be
tween 400 and 500 millions of dollars."
Considerable interest Is frit as to tha effect
which the lemoval of the tea import duties will
Jiavc upon the consumption of that article In the
United Estates, The Import figures covering the
neriod since the imposition of an Import duty
upon tea (dune 13, 1808), do not Jusltfy tho ai-n-rtion
ficqik-ntly niada soma jear sliu-o tint a
'unall tux would Increase the consumption of tea
by insuring better qualities. The average anuuil
Importation of tea since the enactment of the
Jaw which placed a duty upon tea has been but
bout til million pounds, while the avenge dur
ing the preceding Hires years was about 93 mil
lion pounds per annum. The total Importation
r-1 tea in the three fiscal years following June
aS0, ISnS, was 213,741,450 pounds; and In tho
'three fiscal jrars immediately preceding that date
was S78i!0J,!tU pounds, Deducting the amount
re-exported, tho net IpiporU stand; for the three
jear following June 30, 1S0S, 211,010,547 pounds;
for the three years immediately preceding June
0, ISPS, 273,015,001 pounds. This gives an aver
ago Importation for consumption during tleose

JS98, and hut a little over 1 pound per capita per
annum in thc.thrcc-v'car period following that

THE MARKETS
Wall Street Bet-lew.
New York, April 18.-The varied activity of
very largo speculative forces was still manifest in
tho stock mitkct today. The movement of prices
was cntiiely characteristic of an active specula
tive movement under a well centred and aggres
sive leadership. The dealings were on a larger
scale than those of jesterday and progre-s was
also made in the breadth of the movement and
the variety of the stocks dealt in. Those stoUes
which spurted late in the day jesterday and those
which opened this morning with a vigorous up
ward movement almost without exception were
subjected to realizing today and closed the day
wllh sin ill net gains below the best prices. This
was notablj- true of Atchison and of the anthra
cite coalers and was measurably true of slocks
which showed periods of slrcngth later in the
daj-. Ilroadlv speaking, the leadership of the ad
vance was shifted to bt. Paul and then to Union
l'.icllle, with a moderate response amongst the
other southwcslerns and Pacifies. Southern Hall
way and Louisville fell into the back ground
again. The bituminous coal carriers enjojed a
period of strength and there were a number of
wide advances amongst M-attered industrials end
specialties. Colorado Fuel was active and strong
on n speculative supposition that absorption of
thai company into the uniteu rairs necci cor
poration line been assured as part of the settle
ment of the control of Louisville and Nashville.
International Power was extremely erratic but
rose tin extreme 10',i. presumably on the divi
(dend declaration j-estcrdiix-. There were gains of
between 2 nnd S points in North American, Peo
ple's Gas, the rubber goods stocks, New York Air
Ilrake. the American PnulT stocks. Fort Woith and
Denver City Stamped and Nashville, Chattanooga
and St. Louis, Burlington, Cedar Kapids and
Northern dropped 10 points on a single sale and
Urooklvn Union Cos 3. Amalgamated Copper
quiet but soniewli.it depressed after jcstciday's
dividend reduction. American Sugar xvas sold on
the strength of the proposed amendment to Hi
Cuban reciprocity bill to rewind the different! il
dtitv on rcflned sugar. Tlie market closed active
and" irregular. Total sales today. 1.5V3.U0O shares.
The activity in stocks has diverted interest from
the bond market which was rather dull and ir
regular. Total sales, par value, ?3,97fl,000. United
States 3's coiqion advanced Vi per cent., and the
old 4's coupon declined '.i per cent, on tho last
call.

Beautiful
Ail -
Part of them were made
American makers are fine on plain styles, and we avoid the duty when we buy from them,
so that the Eton Jackets and Covert Cloth Jackets are American. ,,
The Covert Cloth Jackets will be more worn than almost any of the others. We
have a very good one for $7.50.
Eton Jackets of broadcloth for $10, of black cheviot for $7.50 up to $13. 50, and
from $10 up they are lined with silk.
The Long Taffeta Coats at $15, with the sailor collars trimmed with lace, have the
Paquin sleeve. At $20 thesilk is better, and there is a little bit more work. At $35 the
silk and lace and the making are all better. It's going to be a great tan-covert year :
though long taffeta coats will be nearly as popular.
Women's Tailor-Made Suits
$10, $13.50, $18, $20 and $25
How a tailor can get London Twine, cut and work and press a suit into good style,
have it finished nicely for $10, is a mystery. Yet here the suits are, and suits of cheviot,
besides, if you prefer them, for the same-price.
The present styles cost a great deal to make: there are fancy touches, and the
cloths are much more difficult
ally used before. So $10 buys a better suit now than it did
The tailoring isn't extraordinary uutil you reach $20.
enough for anybody probably as good as a tailor would put
to order. At $25 the tailor word is really tine, and above that the cost goesmore into tue
material and the fancy trimmings than into anything else.
Women's
Novelties here are what
over. This year we have more
satisfy. Let s see what t-"o cents will buy:
Women's Stockings, 50c
Open-work boot and all-over design in black lisle
some 30 styles.
Red, blue and tan lisle, with open-work boot.
Black lisle with open-work boot and embroidery.
Black, blue and red lisle with silk clocks.
Black lisle with silk embroidered instep.
Ribbed black lisle with vertical embroidery and so on
Men's Furnishings
Shirts, Collars, Neckwear
Exclusive things more than any other store in the
country can show; and good things for little money.
Not a man who can't get here what he wants, and
more advantageously than at most places.
$ 1 Shirts, stiff bosom percales, white madras negli
gee and dress shirts, all made to our order, and better
than you can buy elsewhere for $ 1 .
Shirts that you can't buy anywhere else in America
at any price, those for $2; are selling very fast
Scotch Madras and Cheviot Shirts $2; so like custom-made
shirts that you can hardly tell them apart.
All shapes and sizes of 2liC linen collars, linen
both sides. You should see the new style piccadilly.
Special Neckwear for 50c, made in the new lolded
square, a scarf that ties very well; the first time we've
had it for less than $1.00.
