He analyzed and reviewed society as it existed before the war. during and since the memorable conflict.

The weekly re port of the government on the condi tion and the prospects of the new cot ton cropwas issued today' and was seized upon as a justification for free selling of the fall and winter months. The Liverpool report this morning was favorable and the opening here was a little higher in consequence. For awhile prices were steady, but the sales of the next crop by Europe and the south, and some disposition to liquidate May proved too. much for the limited demand, and the market gradually gave way and 'closed steady at about the lowest figure of "the "day. May opened at 7.08, declined to 7.02, rallied to 7.04 and closed 7.03 to 7.04. We can see nothing in the government bulletin to warrant short sales. Our own advices are not favorable and we favor buying on all breaks. RIORDAN & CO. (By Associated Press.) New York, April 7. The cotton mark et advanced 2 to 3 points at the open ing, early cables being quite as good as looked for, and the advices from the flooded districts being still bad. Spec ulation, however, failed to show up and local selling carried the market back to yesterday's closing before noon. For the rest of the session, the market was narrow and featureless. Selling was checked by increased reports of indif ferent holders of spot cotton and a good - demand from , exporters and American spinners.' During the- early trading Liverpool parties bought con siderably. The close was steady and 2 to 4 points below last night's figures. New York Stock Market. New York, April 7. There were times today when the trading on the stock exchange was ; absolutely stagnant. The transactions were almost wholly lacking in interest, and the fluctuations narrow. The total sales for the day numbered only a few thousand shares over 100,000; nearly half of these were of Sugar. Sales of all the Granger stocks aggregated only about 16,000 shares and the Coalers only about as many more, of which 10,000 were of New Jersey Central. Speculation in railroad shares has -practically come to a standstill, after the recent flurry due to the trans-Missouri decision and the fear of its effects. These fears seem to have abated in large part, but prices have not recovered -their former 'level, and there is no demand manifest to car ry : values upward. Prices held fairly firm today, however, in -spite of the dullness.- The ' application- for a re hearing of the trans-Missouri case had a strengthening effect, though it was not taken very . seriously into account. The new government 4's rose .to 124, on light sales,; without eliciting any large offers. Railway bonds partici pated in the semi-stagnation that- was evident in other departments. The ag gregate sales - were only $787,000. Changes were trivial and firmness pre vailed. I - ; CASTOHIA, limils i guitars of Prices Current. PROVISIONS. BACONr-North Hams, per lb.

Cuba and the Flood Sufferers OceupyTlme of the Senate Senator Morgan Contiaa es His Speech Appropriation of S200, OOO for Aid of Flood Sufferers Mr. Simp son's Attack on Speaker Beed. SENATE. . Washington, April 7. Cuba and the flood sufferers divided attention in the senate today. The reading of the pres dent's message urging congressional relief for the devastated regions of the Mississippi . river was followed by' the Introduction of a Joint resolution, ap propriating $150,000 to be immediately available for the flood sufferers. After brief debate the resolution was passed by the J unanimous vote of the sixty senators present.. The plana -. were changed, however, "when the house resolution appropriating $200,000 for the Mississippi river and Red river of the Northwest was received. This was ac cepted in lieu of the former resolution and was passed unanimously. It was quickly enrolled and dispatched to the president, - ' The resolution of Senator Earle, dem ocrat, of South Carolina, for the reor ganization of senate, committees went over without losing its place. This cleared the way for the Cuban question, Senator Morgan, continuing his speech begun yesterday in support of his resolution. He referred . to "Gen eral Weyler's orders herding together people in the towns and villages of Cuba, for the purpose of starving them. How long be asked was this captain general to continue In power, issuing new orders day after day as his whim or caprice might dictate, resulting in the utmost harshness against Ameri can citizens in Cuba? No such out rages has ever been attempted by one civilized nation toward another as that which now held, up its haughty head and enforced these personal decrees against American citizens. He reiter ated his statement that the Spanish prisons were filled with Americans and showed, a message from the president some itime since, giving a detailed re port from the state department as to the imprisonment of seventy-four 4 American citizens in Cuba, and yet, In spite of this communication from the president the senator from J Maine (Hale) had denied the truth j of the statement that the Cuban prisons were filled with Americans. ." Here Senator Hale interposed. "I did not deny that there were cases of Americans in prison in Cuba,' said he. "What I denied was that the prisons were filled with Americans. Since yes terday I have, called at the state de partment and have found that there are just twelve A,mericans in prison in Cuba. Of these the secretary of state expects that three or four will be liber ated very soon;Lthree were captured with arms in hand. The others are the Competitor prisoners." As Senator Hale closed the presiding officer announced, that tbe hour of 2 o'clock having arrived, the bankruptcy bill was before the senate. Senator Hale moved an executive session. Senator Morgan had not heard the announcement and was disposed to hold the floor. He finally yielded, say ing he would go on tomorrow. At 2 o'clock the senate went Into ex ecutive session and at 2:20 o'clock p. m., adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Two sessions of the house of repre sentatives are to constitute the record of. that body this week while it is wait ing for the senate to consider the tariff bill.' The first session was held today, the second will be .held Saturday. The only business transacted today was the adoption of the joint resolution author izing the secretary of war to. expend $'200,000 for relief of the-flood sufferers of the Mississippi valley. .-. The flood resolution, in addition to appropriating $200,000 authorizes the secretary of war to employ, the govern ment steamers and other boats on the Mississippi in transporting and dis tributing the supplies and also such other means as he might deem neces sary for the purpose of distributing supplies contributed by the govern ment or individuals. During the de bate on this question ' the president's message on the same subject was re ceived and read. . The most interesting feature of the session was a passage between Repre sentative Simpson, the "Kansas popu list and Speaker Reed. Air. bimpson gave voice to the op position to the speaker's temporary policy of inaction, which has been smouldering in some quarters, by speaking to a question of privilege He finished a fiery denunciation of the speaker by demanding that he appoint tne committees or tne nouse at once and gave notice that he would prevent any more attempts to do business by unanimous consent. Several republi can members attempted ; to stem the tide of Mr. Simpson's attack, but Mr. Reed seemed to desire to hear it. and declined to- interfere. He listened calmly to the speech and then with his usual coolness and lucidity replied,- giv ing his reasons for not appointing the committees. The house then took a recess of twen ty minutes to wait for the return of the flood resolution from the senate. In twenty minutes it was delivered by the senate clerk and the speaker an nexed his signature to it. Then at 1:20 o'clock p. m., the house adjourned until Saturday.

To Congress Urging an Appropriation for the Relief of the People of the Flooded Districts in the West. Washington, April 7. The president today sent a message to the senate and house of representatives, detailing the deplorable condition of the flood devas tated section of the country and says: "Under such circumstances the citi zens of these states look. for. the co operation and support of the national government ' in relieving the pressing cases of destitution for food, clothing and shelter, which are beyond the reach of local, efforts.' The authorities who have communicated with the exe cutive recognize that their first and most energetic duty is to provide, as far aa possible, the means of "caring for their own citizens, .but nearly all of them agree in the opinion that-after their resources have been exhausted a, sum .aggregating at least $150,000 and possibly. $200,000 will be required for immedlate use. ; "Precedents are not wanting that in such emergencies as this congress has taken prompt, generous and Intelligent action, involving the expenditure of considerable sums of money with satis factory results. ' In 1874, $590,000 was appropriated and in 1882, $350,000 was also appropriated for relief In the same ' direction, besides large sums in -other years. -. j : "The citizens reilief committee of Memphis, which has taken tion, has already cared for from 6,000 to 7,000 refugees from the" flooded districts and they are still arriving In that city in largo numbers dally. Supplies and provisions have been sent to the vari ous points in Arkansas and Mississippi by this committee, but the utmost that can be done by these efforts is to partly re-iiei me iuubl acute cases of suffering. No action has yet been taken for the great majority of the inhabitants living in the interior, whose condition has al ready been described. Under- these conditions and having exerted them selves to the' fullest extent, the local authorities have reluctantly confessed their inability to further cope with this distressing situation unaided hv relief from the government. It has therefore seemed to me that the representatives of the people should be promptly In formed of the nature and extent of the suffering and the needs of these stricken' people, and I havo communi cated these-facts In the hope and belief mat me legislative branch of the gov ernment will promptly re-enforce the wur oi ine local authorities in the states, named." i- N EARING THE END. Spanish Authorities Claim That the Cuban Rebellion is About Over Their Figures as to the Sugar Crop. ;w . j Washington, April " 7: enor Don Juan du "Bose, first secreWT-v -.( tw Spanish legation, was seen at the le gation today and asked as to the status of affairs in Cuba. He said the raDorta received from the island were uniform ly favorable to the government and were so marked In this respect that the legation felt that t,he insurrection was fast approaching the point of dissolu tion. In proof of this assertion Mr. du. Bose turned to Havana papers just received and pointed out significant passages. He called attention to The Diaro de la Marina, of March 21t. which gives a letter from i its -ootto- spondent, Don Femande Gomez. from Las Villas.- The latter savs the insurrection has lost all fts gravity. It' nas even lost its importance. Mr. Go mez wrote, -from a military Doirft of- vlew, at least in the central and west ern provinces of the island. In the dis trict of Cienfuegos, the sugar crop of this year, be writes, will be three times tnat or last year. r This Information as to the suear cron is of exceptional Importance, proceed ed Mr. du Bose, and it corroberates our own information. The latest reoorts reaching us show that the total pro duct for this year is 81,043 tons, as against 66,167 tons in the corresponding penoa or -last year. i - air. du Bose said that in view of thin information, the reports attributed to Mr. Dupuy de Lome that Spain was about evacuate the island must be taken in . a Pickwickian 'sense. He re fused to express an opinion of the Cu ban proceedings in the senate on the ground that it would be a breach' of diplomatic duty on 'his part to do so. The Chicago Markets. Chicago. April 7.

Captain General Weyler arrived, at Jucaro, province of Puerto Principe, at 3 o'clock yesterday- morning on-board the Spanish gunboat Satelite. From that , vessel he was landed In a boat at the Diego Val asquez wharf at 6 o'clock a. m. and visited and inspected several of the forts along the,- military line. He ex pressed himself as being highly satis fied with the fortifications. At about .7 o'clock the captain general's train passed the military camps of Domin- guez and Colon! and at 8 o clock 5ie arrived at Ciego de Avila, about the middle olf the military line. After in specting the forts he visited the mill tary hospital of Ciego de Avila and in the name of . the king promoted Lieu tenant AJfonz Sanchez, one of the wounded, to the rank of captain.- For all the wounded, the captain general had. a few words of sympathy and con solation. General Weyler left Ciego de Avila at 9 o'clock and about noon arrived at Moron, the town at the northern ex tremity of the military line across the province of Puerto Principe. At Moron he inspected the forts, factories, etc. and again expressed rrtrcrself as being satisfied with the work done all along the military line which, by the. way, was directed, by the captain general personally-from his 'headquarters at Havana, assisted by the chief of the engineers.
