CAPITAL IS AT FORT WORTH
Business of President Transacted by
Secretary Loeb in Hotel.
FORT WORTH, Tex., April 9. In a
suite of rooms on the parlor floor In the
Hotel Worth, In this city, the seat of the
United States Government has been tem
porarily established. In the absence of
il.c President, who is hunting coyotes and
jackrabblts over in the- Kiowa-Comanche
reservation in Oklahoma, official business
is given attention by Secretary Loeb.
Most of the business will be transacted
by the secretary and directed to the vari
ous departments in Washington whore It
originated. That which requires the per
sonal supervision of the President will
have to wait until Thursday, for not un
til then will communication be had with
the hunting party.

furnish him with wholesome recreation
for a few days, the officials boarded the
special and returned to this city. It
reached here at S A. M. and at 10 A. M.
the party went to the hotel and opened
headquarters. It had been expected thore
would be an accumulation of mail, but for
some reason the local Postofllce forward
ed It to Frederick. Okla.. where the res
ident had "been left. It was necessary to
telegraph for the return of the mail, and
most of It will not arrive until tomorrow.
In the meantime the official party is en

from the President to "run the special
train to Frederick on Thursday, and on
that day start for Western Colorado, to
which point tho President will go for the
purpose of finding larger game than

According to present plans, the public
part of the trip West is ended. It Is not
expected that any stops will be made un

Rapid Increase in Exports to Young
Republic.
WASHINGTON. April 9. Imports from
the United States to Cuba in the eight
months ending with February. 1965.
amount to 524.126.6S7 -and are larger tnan
in the corresponding period of any fiscal
roar in the htstorv of our trade with
Cuba. Compared with the corresponding I
of over 42 per cent, while the Imports
from Cuba in the same time show an In
crease of only 16 per cenL The statement
of trade with Cuba during the eight
months ending with February, just Is
sued by the Department of Commerce
and Labor through its bureau of statis
tics, shows an especially rapR! growth In
exports to that island, and that the in
crease occurs in practically all articles
entering Into that trade.
In imports the growth is not nearly so
rapid and occurs In but two or three
articles, chiefly sugar. The exports to
Cuba in the eight months ending with
February were valued -at $34,126,687.
against $10,898,884 In the corresponding
months of last year, an 'increase of 42
per cent, while the imports from Cuba
were $4.269,359. as against $36,230,060
In the corresponding months of last year,
an increase of but 1G per cent. It is
quite apparent from those figures that
the exports to Cuba during the fiscal
year which ends with the month of June
will be larger than in any earlier year.
The largest exports to Cuba In the his
tory of our commerce with"that island
were those of the fiscal year 1904, when
the total was $27,377,465, and as the ex
ports during the eight months .of the
present fiscal year show an Increase of 42
per cent over those of the corresponding
period of 1904, the largest earlier year.
It is quite apparent that the total for the
year 1905 will materially exceed that of
any prceding yeac -
On the import side, predictions as to
the comparison of the fiscal year 1305
with earlier years are more difficult. The
increase " In Imports from Cuba In the
eight months ending with February Is,"
as already indicated. but,16 per cent over
the corresponding months of 1901, while
the imports from Cuba In that year were
less than those of 1S73. 1874. 1882 and
1888. The yearv of the largest importa
tion from Cuba was 1874. when the total
value of merchandise imported from that
Island was 585.428.097. The total for the
fiscal year 1904 was $76,988,418, and as
the figures for the eight months of the
present yeare were but 16 per cent in ex
cess of those of the corresponding months
of last year, it seems scarcely llkeiy
that the total for the fiscal year will
reach the high-water mark of 1874.
though there oan be no doubt that the
exports of the island In 1905 will mater
ially exceed the recoid of any .earlier
year.
In practically all articles of Importance
the exports of the eight months ending
with February. 1905. are larger than
those of the same months of the preced
ing year. Comparing the eight months'
period of the two 'fiscal years, flour in
creases from $1,500,000 in 1904 to $2,000.-
000 in 1996: cattle, from $979,000 to i
$1,397,000; lumber from $749,000 to $987.
000: corn, from $461,000 to $629,000; cot
ton cloths, from $202,000 to $4S7.000; cars
and carriages, from $299,000 to $352,000;
furniture, from $268,000 to $344,000;
builders' hardware, from 263.000 to
$306,000; bacon, from $212,000 to $300,080;
mineral oils, from $18L000 to $259,000.
and so on down the list increases occur
In practically all the important aitlcles
entering into that trade. Books and maps
increased in exportation from $SO.O00 in
the first eight months of 1904 to $15L000
in the corresponding months of the pres
ent year; fruits and mits. from $64,000
to 5102.0W; while manufactured cotton
other .than cloths, agricultural Imple
ments, sewing machines, locomotivos.
cotton-seed oil. naval stores, electrical
machinery, bicycles and other articles
also show a marked increase.
On the import side, as already indi
cated, the chief Increase occurs -in sugar,
the Importations of which during the
eight months In question amount to $29.
848.042. as against $24,866,517 in the same
months of 1904. an Increase of $5,181,525,
while the entire increase in Imports from
Cuba during the, same period IS" but
$6,030,299.

DESPITE SENATE'S INACTION
President Hss Done in Another Way
What Senate Failed to Authorize
Fight Will Be Resumed
Next. Session.
ORBGONIAX NEWS BUREAU, Wash
Ingionj April 9. The general belief among
those who have observed the trend of
affairs for years iSvthat the United Stales
will virtually assume a protectorate over
Santo Domingo and that it Is now so
placed that It cannot do otherwise, since
it has literally taken charge of the rev
enues of the little republic and guaran
teed the stability of the present govern
ment. In fact. It is a protectorate as It
stands; whatever name may be used to
describe the control the United States
exercises. Under no consideration will
the United States allow a foreign gov
ernment to Interfere with affairs In Santo
Domingo, nor will It allow any of the rev
olutionists to create disturbances which
will overthrow the present government.
That Is nothing but a protectorate.
The Democrats were able to solidify
themselves as a party against the Santo
Domingo treaty; they were also severely
critical of what had previously been done
by the Administration without the con
sent f the Senate. The Senate ad
journed without a vote on. the Santo Do
mingo treaty when it was known that it
could not be ratified by the necessary two
thirds. When Congress again reassem
bles -it-is almost certain that sever criti
cism will be made of the President for
going ahead and doing in Santo Do
mingo, under a different name, perhaps,
just what he proposed to do under the
treaty. It Is a fact that President Mo
rales, of the Dominican government,
named tne men who are to collect the
revenues, but they were first suggested
or nominated by President Roosevelt.
They will deposit the money in a New
York bank and the money must be paid
out by somefiody's order. The men nom
inated will not pay it out until they have
authority from the United States. It is
to be paid out to foreign governments
whose citizons have claims against Santo
Domingo, and also to claimants from this
country. It Is an absolute fact that the
President is doing, under a different
method, the very things that the treaty
proposed to allow him to do.
There will be an interesting fight when
Congress reconvenes, and it will be still
more -Interesting to note whether the
Democrats will remain as solid as they
were the first weeks in March and will
oppose the interference In Santo Domingo.
The treaty will require a great deal of
discussion and no doubt a number of res
olutions will be proposed demanding in
formation, and there will be speeches
criticising what has already ben done.
At the iame time it is quite difficult
to see how the United States, having
since got into this affair through the ac
tion of the executive, can change its
course. The Government of course can do
anything, but it will be a moral obliga
tion that this Government will have to
sec that Santo Domingo affairs are prop
erly conducted and a withdrawal would
leave the island in a much worse condi
tion than at present.

PUT NOT .TRUST DT MINES j
Fortification Experts Favor Subma-1
rines for Coast Defense. j
NEWPORT. R. I., April 9. The third .
committee of the fortification board, of
which Admiral Charles N. Thomas, U.
S. N.. Is chairman. Is devoting special
attention to the dangers incident to the
use of submarine mines, and it is learned
that emphasis will be placed on the ad
vantage of substituting submarine boats
for mines for harbor defense. Discussing
this subject, a member of the commit
tee said today:
"Mines cannot be relied upon In time
of war. Trials given .submarine mines
In Xarragansett Bay resulted unsuccess
fully, due chieflv to the stronir cur
rents which sweep through the harbor
and entrances to the bay and make
these defenses extremely dangerous. This
Is one of the important subjects that the
fortification board has already taken up
and will thoroughly examine during the
inspection of fortifications and the land
and floating defenses.
"The established fact that a number of
the Russian warships were blown up by
their own submarine mines, and the pres
ent practice of England in discarding
submarine mine defenses to a great ex
tent in harbors where there are wide
channels to defend and where the tides
are strong, and placing there submarine
boats, has added to the sentiment in
favor of replacing mines with boats."

Revolution in Foreign Trade in Iron
and Steel.
WASHINGTON. April 9. lSxports of
iron and steel manufactures from the
United States in the first eight months of
the present fiscal year exceed thoae In
the corresponding months of any earlier
year, being $$6,500,000,000 In value, as com
pared with 581.500,000. the high record
made in the first eight months of the fiscal
year IDOL
A statement just issued by tho Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor through
Its Bureau of Statistics compares the Im
ports and exports of Iron and steel manu
factures during the first eight months of
each fiscal year from 1S85 to 1W6. In 1SS5
these exports during the first eight
months were less than half the valuo of
similar Imports, being $11,600,000. as against
$23,000,000. In 1905. during the same
months, the exports of irop. and steel
are about six times as much as the im
ports being $85,500,000, as against $14,
000.000. Thus the balance of trade which
in 1SSS showed a total of $12,000,000 in fa
vor of imports, shows in 1905 to date a
total of 571.000,000 in favor of exports.
The growth In iron and steel exports
from the United States Is even more
clearly shown by a comparison of the
movement in certain articles. In 1SS5
tuere, were but 25 classes of sufficient
importance to warrant their presenta
tion in tl;c monthly records of export
movements. In 1903 about 45 separate
items of iron and steels manufactures are
shown in the Monthly Summary of Com
merce and Finance and the list steadily
grows from year to year.
Machinery, the leading Item of export,
has increased from $5,457,640 in the first
eight months of 1SS5 to $39.0SS,052 in the
corresponding months of the present fiscal
year. Under the head of machinery arc
Included locomotives, in which tho growth
was from $655,0?S in 1SS5, to $1,946,420 in
1905; printing presses, from $116,142 to
$874,139; sewing machines, from $1.94S,
491 to $3,809,694; and in addition many
other -articles which were not enumer
ated in 1SS5, such as cash registers, elec
trical machinery, laundry-working ma
chinery, typewriters, and other items rep
resenting lines of Industry which have
only developed In recent years. Steel
rails liavc also increased in exports from
$177,465 in tho first eight months of 18S5
to $S,000.649 In 1905 to date, and over half
of the lutter value represents shipments
to tho rapidly developing sections of
Canada, while Japan almost equals Eu
rope as a market for American rails, be
ing credited with $131,30 worth, as against
$529,830 for Europe as a whole. Locks,
hinges and other builders' hardware in
creased from $1,487,313 In 1885 to $7,103,
$45 in 1905. though the latter sum is
slightly less than the totals for the cor
responding periods of 1903 and 1904. the
comparisons in each case "being for the
first eight months of the fiscal years
named.
Pig-Iron production in the United States
showed but little growth in the 20 years
from 1S65 to 1885, being about
1.000.000 tons . and 4.000,000, re
spectively, at the two dates named.
In the 20 years from 18S5 to 1905
the growth has been nearly $14,000,000.
and the increase has - ocurred chiefly In
the last teji years, having almost doubled
in 1903 as compared with the production
of 1893. A study of the figures prepared
by the Bureau of Statistics indloates (1)
a rapid expansion in the production of
pig Iron, beginning with the year 1S94;
(2) a decrease in the Imports of iron and
stcol manufactures, which have stead
ily decreased ' since 1SS0. and in but two
years. 1891 and 1903, have touched level
reached in the year named; f3) a corre
sponding Increase in the exportation of
iron and steel manufactures, cspeclally
since 1S87; and (4) a disappearance of
the set Inward movement of Iron and
steel and the substitution of a net ex
port movement, beginning with the year

Trustworthy Linens
A wise old head said, not so many years aco. when
; this stare first besran to attract attention: "Oh. well:
anybody with money can build a store and can sell
some sorts of goods. Lets see If they can win a
business in linens."
And. as though the whole town had heard the
word through a megaphone, our linens were shunned
we were not winning a. linen business.
It was a lucky failure for the slowness seemed
practically a failure to us and we set experts to
work, studying linens as no other store had studied
them: studying linens as only those who study them
are linen-makers and want to excel.
Our stocks grew so good that they at last com-
manded attention and we had won a linen business.

W GOOD NEWS FROM THE SHOE STORE ON THE
"FAIR-WAY."
West Annex First Floor.
Mr. S. C. James ob, Manager.
New stocks, new methods and a new manager in
the shoe store. A lady fitter and saleswoman to wait
upon women and children who wish. A grand stock
of splendid shoes for all the family a peerless line of
all the new patent leathers.
Wolff, th.e Inventor of the new patent leather, was
a chemist: his line running to the preparation of pelts
for tanners. At last he made a preparation that gave
leather the long-looked for shiny surface In a safe
way. He gave up his chemist's shop and now ranks
as one of the world-famed makers of leathers.
There are twenty imitators, but nobody else has
found tho secret. Wolffs Ideal Kid is as distinctly
best as Is Foerderer's VIci Kid. ,
It is refined patent leather the difference of a
linen collar vs. one of celluloid.
