Jockxai. l'ri:K.r, Wasuisoix'. D. C. . Julv 2l. ) I Speaker Uetl would ! more than human if he did not get a little hit swell ed on account of the several open refer ences made on the floor of the Senate to his jxiwcr as exercised over the House, and 'the .open acknowledgment on the part of Senators that he had succeeded in coercing the Senate, not only in push ing the taritT bill through, hut in shaping the lull itself. These acknowledgements are among the most remarkable ever ever made in the Senate, which lias here tofore prided itself on always having its own way in all matters pertaining to leg islation. The Speaker of the House has always been the most powerful individual factor in lac control of Congressional legislation, but, unless these Senators are badly mistaken. Speaker Heed has been more than a factor-, he has been a dicta tor. I think his power in this case has leen greatly exaggerated. The extra session of Congress that met in March is now a part of the country 's legislative history, and the taritT bill, upon which the continuation of the He publican party in power depends, is now the law of the land. That portion of the administration that is wedded to the currency commission idea is not entirely satisfied with the work of the extra svstion, because no such commission was authorized, and those who wished Con gress to go into geueral legislation are not at all pluased, but those who wished legislation confined to the taritT bill re gard the session as having been entirely successful. What the people think of the work of the session will not be known for some time yet. and will de pend upon their experience under the workings of the new tariff. The aver age citizen is not a bitter partisan, and is always ready to say a good word for the bridge that carries him safely over rough waters regardless of the builder. If the taritT helps him he will pronounce it good, if not, he will pronounce it bad and help to overthrow those responsible for it. Senator Morgan added to his reputation as a man of common sense by the man ner in which lie announced the abandon ment of the attempt to delay a vote on the conference report on the tarilT bill until cotton ties and bagging were re stored to the free list and the duty on white pine lumter was reduced from 'J to .1. lie frankly stated that he would have t it willing to have remained all mrnrniT ami to have kept Congress in esi-i"n had his support been sutlicient to juMify a hot; "f final success, but not having that he did not care to have the batteries of the press concentrated upon him, and was therefore willing to vote on the report. (hie thing that was done while the new I tariff law was 1 fore the conference con. -I mittoe is sure to he widely cwnincnded. That is the insertion of a clause prohibit um; the manufacturer-; of tobacco or , cigarettes offering any sort of a prize or l premium with their goods. The only 1 pity is that a similar law could not be made to apply to everything else, for j there is little doubt that the introduction ' of lottery methods into business, which lias grown to a great evil, is demoralizing in its effects upon our people as a whole, j The minute the taritT bill was out of the way President McKinley's special rurrenev commission was tired broadside at Congress. The Senate paid no atten tion to this request for legislation before . adjourning, but the House, although Speaker Heed and other Republican leaders were understood to be opposed to a currency commission, took up and passed the bill authorizing the appoint ment of such a commission, if the Sena tors return to Washington, next Decem ber, with the same ideas on this subject, that they have now, it is extremely doubtful whether this bill w ill le passed bv the Senate.

THE MARKETS. Special to Journal . Nkw York, July 2o Stocks continued in their upward movement and w ill go much higher on crop report. New records were made today, for the Grangers, and Sugar came m for tin ad vance of three dollars on renewed buy ing. Cotton was strong on foreign cables, anj good purchasing by the home inter est. We look for higher prices. The wheat receipts of the last two days together with lower foreign markets was too much pressure for the bull contin gent, and prices after opening a cent lower showed a feeble rally, and con tinued down wai d. netting two cents loss for the day. We look for a rally for curient prices. H. W. SlLsr.V oc Lo. Yesterday's market quotations furnish- ed by 11. Brokers. W. Silsbv lV. Co. Couimis-ion STOCKS. Open. High. I.ow. t loee Am.

Weekly Crop Bulletin Tiie week ending July 6th was very wet: the ground has been thoroughly soaked nearly everywhere. The rainfall averaged over 2 inches for the week, w ith amounts varying from 1 to .j inches. While the rainfall m some sections was excessive, with minor damage to low land crops by standing water and over sowing streams, and some injury to corn by high winds, the seasons on the whole have been very beneficial, anil crops have made excellent progress.

The officers of the State Farmers' Alli ance are now making a desperate elTort to get it out of polities. But yesterday the Populist State Convention most in gloriouslv ended the annua! meeting of the Alliance. There was quite a gale of wind for an hour here last night. It did no damage in tin1 city, but perhaps did some to corn and cotton. Cotton is remarkably welf fruited thi year. This is the comment of all the growers. Thomas Robertson, the white man con victed of seducing Julia Hester here was given the full limit of sentence. 5 years. He has appealed and the ease gets before the Supreme court in three months. Feel ing against him is high. The Hygience ice company (defunct) which was really H. Brar & Son. of Charleston, sues the Seaboard Air Line for 820,000 for the burning of its ice factory here several years ago, with claim that sparks from a passing engine caused the tire. The attendance at the farmers' insti tutes is small up to this time, the Popu lists have concluded that the attendance was light because there were Democratic officials, but now all the business is in Populists hands, yet they do not draw the crowds. This early Democratic papers are com ing forward and taking a firm stand against any fusion with Populists in 1808. Last years disgraceful failure taught a lesson.
