INDUSTRIAL
AND LABOR
MANUFACTURERS' MATERIALS
IN FOREIGN COMMERCE.
The Total Exports of Fiscal Your
Amounted to $403,800,763, a Re
duction of $8,205,303 Compared
with 1001 In the General Class of
Manufactures, However, n Majority

terests Other Notes.
It Is now possible to determine ac
curately the movements of mnnufnu
tures und manufacturers' materials In
the foreign commerce of the United
States during the fiscal year 1902.
The June report of the treasury
bureau of statistics, showlnff the Im
ports and exports by articles for the
month of June and for the entire year
compared with preceding years, has
lust been completed und given to the
ubllc. It shows that the totnt exports
if manufactures are $403,890,703, against
(412,155,060 in 1901, a reduction of $8,
2G 1,303.
In Iron and steel manufactures alone
the exports have fallen from $117,319,
120 in 1901 to $98,552,562, a reduction of
JlS,7li6,75S. Thus the decrease in Iron
und steel manufactures alone Is ten
million dollars greater than the total
reduction In exports of manufactures,
indicating that In other articles there
has been net Increase.
Taking fie general class of manufac
tures exported, it may be said that a
majority show an increase In 1902 com
pared with 1901, while some of the ar
ticles showing a decrease In value of
exports show an Increase In quantity,
indicating that the reduction is due In
some cases to reduced prices and not
to reduced exports. In copper, for ex
ample, the exportation of Ingots, bars,
plates, etc., amounted In the llscal year
1902 to 28S,720,635 pounds, against 252,
709,328 pounds in the preceding year,
nn increase of 35,951,329 pounds while
the value was in 1902, $39,190,019, against
$11,260,376 In 1901, a reduction of $2,069,-
TABLE OF EXPORTS.
Tho following table, prepared by the
treasury bureau of statistics, shows tho
ixports of the principal manufactures,
and Includes all articles or groups of
articles the exports ,of which in 1902
exceeded $1,000,000. The figures for 1902
are compared with those for 1901, and

Newton Jackson, vice-president of the
Eastern Milling nnd Export company,
of Philadelphia, was a passenger last
night on the Pennsylvania Limited to
Springfield, 111. "Twenty-one coal min
ing concerns operating plants in the
vicinity of Springfield, 111., controlled
by New York and Chicago capital, have
recently been consolidated in New
York. The new combine will have a
capital of $12,000,000, the output of the
mines being about 4,000,000 "bushels a
year," said Mr. Jackson. "I am going
to Springfield tonight to settle up some
legal details of the combine. Illinois

FUTURE OF THE LAW.
It Is Rapidly Forcing Its Votaries to
Become Specialists.
From "Tho Dccllno of tho Prnctlclng
Lawyer" by If. Gerald Chapln in Suc
cess. It mny soem a gloomy and hazardous
prophecy to say that, within twenty
years, the Individual or general-practice
attorney will be extinct, save only In
tho remoter country district. Yet,
after observing the trend of events for
a number of years, and listening, as
the author has, to the stories of many
hundreds of attorneys throughout this
country, hp is forced to this conclusion.
Deduced to a chemical formula, con
puted on a scale of ten, the sum of
legal business may bo said to be com
pounded of the following:
Ileal estate 3 parts.
Corporations 2 "
Commercial cases and "collec
tions". 2 "
Wills and administration of es
tates lpart
Accident nnd ncgllcenco suits 1 '
Dofcnso of criminals 1 '
Fifteen years ago, real estate practice
was tho most lucrative of the calling.
Ten thousand dollars a year was look
ed upon as a very small Income for a
lawyer who made It his specialty. Its
following practically ceased with the
organization of title-Insurance com
panies. Their fees are less than the
individual lawyer can afford to accept,
their staff comprises counsel of the
highest skill In this particular line,
and, best of all, from the layman's
standpoint, the company's financial re
sponsibility Is unquestioned -in case an
error 1 made. It Is quite true that
there now exists certain law firms
claiming to do a real estate business;
but, In nearly every Instance, it will bo
found that their work Is loaning funds
of clients or of members upon bonds
and mortgages. But even the "loan"
business has been cut into by the title
corporations, many of which are now
engaged in selling bonds and mortgages
of which they guarantee payment of
principal and interest.
One of the few strongholds in the
real estate line still left to the lawyer
In a large city Is the representation
of clients whose property is being con
demned for the opening or widening
of streets. This is usually done upon
a contingent basis, the attorneys re
ceiving a percentage of the amount re
covered. Competition In this field is
exceedingly keen, and It not consider
ed beneath the dignity of a most reput
able firm to employ agents for the
purpose of obtaining contracts from
property owners, the moment proceed
ings are considered. Certain changes
which will materially interfere with the
pursuit of this line of business are,
however, being discussed by many mun
icipalities. Corporations haye ceased to be ap
preciable factors, owing to the organ
ization of various "Incorporation com
panies," one of which, for fifty dollars,
plus state fees, will organize a com
pany, and for twenty-five dollars per
year will thereafter provide 'an office
for directors' meetings, write the min
utes, prepare the annual reports, and
attend to the various details which tho
particular state statute makes obliga
tory. WELL-KEPT HANDS.
Over my sink are two bottles and a
natKcleaner. One bottle contains five
parts of lemon juice to one of alcohol,
which will keep Indefinitely. Tho
other contains the following lotion: One
fourth of an ounce of gum trngacanth
added to one pint of rain-water, which
has stood three days, then one ounce
each of alcohol, glycerine and witch
hazel, also a little good faint perfume.
After washing dishes or preparing
vegetables I npply a little of the lemon
juice, then the lotion, and In a mom
ent my hands are dry, soft and very
smooth. All stains disappear as If by
magic, and the nails are cleaned easily.
The tlmo required Is not over two min
utes. This process repented five or six
times dally will certnlnly repay house
keepers, for what Is there moie Indica
tive of refinement than well-kept
hands? Then, too, the expense of these
lotions is comparatively nqthing. Be
sure to have them In a handy place,

S0PT COAL IN
METROPOLIS
NEW YORK IS ENGULFED IN A
CLOUD OF SMOKE.
Even the Immense Sky-Scrapers
Have Been Lost Sight of from tho
Jersey Shore Principal Theatrical
and Sporting Attractions of tho
Day Where tho Visitor Can Find
Rest and Recreation Along tho At
lantic Const.
From a Staff Correspondent.
New York, Aug. 3. If the mine work
ers of the anthracite coal regions could
seo tho effects of soft coal on tho
metropolis, they would, perhaps, have
some sympnthy for tho afflicted Goth
nmltcs and Immediately return to
work. Such a volume of dirty, obnox
ious smoko that hangs over the city
every day Is a sourco'of much annoy
ance to visitors and a continuous nuis
ance to the people on tho Island of
Manhattan. It places New York In tho
same category as Pittsburg and Chi
cago, us far as this public necessity
affects the health and comfort of tho
pooulo.
It can snfely bo said that scarcely a
pound of anthracite coal Is In use In
New York, outside of what Is being
mixed with the bituminous and burned
In locomotives running In and out of
Now York. The trafllc on all branches
of the elevated railroads In the city"
has been seriously affected by reason
of soft coal being burned on tho en
gines, nnd volumes of the smoke nrlso
constantly from every ocean liner,
pleasure boat, barge or tug on tho
North and East rivers. From every
smokestack of Industry there Issues
dally the same cloud of thick, murky
smoke, which settles with nauseating
effect on everybody and- every thng in
slcht.
The effect of tho smoko on the city
can best bn seen from the deck of a
steamer coming up from Sandy Hook.
It has the Uppearance of the city being
enveloped in a fierce conflagration,
with the smoko that follows arising in
dense volumes high up In the air, com
pletely ovcrshndowlng the immense
sky-scrapers whieh aro such conspicu
ous monuments to the progress and en
terprise of New Yorkers. Even the
great Brooklyn bridge is lost sight of
in the fog, and on a cloudy day Now
York is practically "out of sight" of
either tho New Jersey or Brooklyn
shores.
GAINED A FOOTHOLD.
It is certain to the casual observer
that tho product of the bituminous coal
fields has gained such a foothold over
anthracite In New York, now, that it
will be a hard matter to regain tho
trade of former years along this lino.
The Introduction of gas .ranges has also
opened up a field in which anthracite
has heretofore had comparatively little
opposition. But with all tho dlsnarnir-
ing effects of tho bituminous product
on the metropolis, there is always
"something doing" to engage the at
tention of the visitor.
Hundreds of substantial buildings are
In course of erection, notable among
thein being tho famous "flat Iron," at
Broadway, Fifth avenue, Twenty-second
and Twenty-third street. The sub
way for the underground railway sys
tem is progressing rapidly and com
mands much attention from spectators.
Thousands of tons of rock are being
excavated to make room for this won
derful Improvement, and some 10,000
workmen are engaged in carrying on
the work, which will be completed In
two years from now.
The attractions at the theatres are
rather limited, the principal plays be
ing "The Defender" at the Herald
Square, and "A Chinese Honeymoon"
at tho Casino. The former is a new
musical yachtlcal extravaganza, which
has made the biggest hit of any sim
ilar production in years. The cast In
cludes such .well-known artists as Paula
Edwards, Emma Carus,, Blanche Ring,
Edith Eldridge, Sandol Mill! Ken, Amy
Ashmore, Maym Kelso, Grace Spencer,
Alexander Clarke, Harry Davenport,
Richie Ling, George Allison, Gordon
Tomklns nnd Gilbert Clayton. Tho
music, chorus and solo work, together
with tho scenic effects of the produc
tion are superb and the show is des
tined to have a long run.
The successful English musical
comedy, "A Chinese Honeymoon," Is
one of the prettiest and most tuneful
light productions ever seen in New
York. The cast Includes Thomas Q.
Seabrooke, Edwin Stevens, William
Burress, William Pruette, Van Rens
salear Wheeler, Adole Ritchie, Amelia
F. Stone, Almee Angeles, Mrs. Annie
Yeamans, Katie Barry and others.
AS TO BASE BALL.
Just, now the New York and Brook
lyn base ball teams are attracting un
usual attention, tho former by reason
of the fact that McGrnw has rejuvenat
ed the team and injected new life into
its work, and tho latter on account
of the manlflcent uphill fight It Is mak
ing for leadership In the National league
race.
In one week recently these two teams
played to an aggregate attendance of
nearly 100,000 for six games. New
York now litis tho best pitching corps
It has had for years, and their fielding
Is grand, but their stlckwork Is rather
light. "Jack" Dunne, of Scranton,
and Christy Mathowson, of Factory
vllle, are with tho team, the former
playing right Held, and tho latter tak
ing his regular turn in the box.
Tho Brighton Beach races attract
thousands of people to the seashoro
every day, and the multitude of bathers
at Manhattan, Coney lstund nnd Hock
away uttest the never-waning popular
ity oi inese resorts. The principal at
tractions on the island are Santos Du
mont's nlr ship nnd tho "steeplechase,"
tho latter containing a number of Pan
American attractions," including tho
House Upside Down and a Trip to the
Moon.
The most enjoyable boat trips aro
to Glen Island, Uockawny Beach, At
lantic Highlands, und up the Hudson
to West Point or Poughkeepsle. Any
of these can be taken in the" day time,
affording relief and pleusuro from the
sultriness of llio city life, The trolley
lido to Brighton Beach Is also a source
of much pleasure and a view of the new
uptown brldgo ucross the Eust river
