At the sale of the Castle Hayne farms,

President Holliday says there arc 1,000

Causing Higher
Prices for
Cotton.
Special to Journal.
Nkw York, July 16. The stock mar
ket continues to advance, and higher
prices may bo looked for, especially on
railway stocks.
Cotton advanced on buying from Liver
pool and from the south. The upward
movement of cotton has now fairly com
menced. .The drought will cause a quick
alrauce.
. Wheat made a great advance today of
two cents a bushel. Foreigners arejjuy
ing. Receipts are light and the farmers
are holding for further advance and are
being encouraged by the elevator people.
We look for higher prices and believe
that this year farmers who hold big
crop will make money. We advise
puichase of cotton, stocks and grain (or
an advance.

Refused to be Dictated to by Makers.
Congressman Robertson on Fut
ure Issues. Secret Methods In
Bering Sea Natter. Hoist
the Flag over Hawaii.
JOUBNAL BUKBAU, v
Washington. D. G. July 16. i
After some very plain talk from Sena
tors about the attempt of the combine
of armor plate makers to hold the V. S.
government up and compel the payment
of fancy prices for armor for the ships
nowjbt-lng coustruct&t, the Senate decid
ed witli only half a dozen votes in the
negative to strike out $425 and iusert
$300 in the clause of the General Defic
iency appropriation bill prescribing the
price that may be paid per ton tor armor
plates. Senator Stewart referred to
Andrew Carnegie as a candidate for the
British Partiamcnt, and declared that lie
should not be allowed to dictate prices
to this government. Senator Teller de
clared that it would be a greater surren
der of National dignity to bow to the
armor contractors than to let the ships
stand on tiie stocks, and said he would
let them stand unarmored for all time
rather than be held up by the armor
combine. It is stated that the Carnegie
and the Bethlehem companies, which
have the only armor-making plants in
this country, will refuse to furnish ar
mor for $300 a ton, although it has bem
proven by expert testimony that it
would be proiitablc to make it at $250 a
ton.
Senator Butler this week inlro luceJ a
bill providing for the establishment of
postal savings banks under the super
vision of the Postmaster General and the
Secretary of the Treasury, every post
office to be n branch bank and deposits of
ten cSnts and upward to be received.
Representative Robertson, of Louisiana
who has spent the greater part of the
extra session of Congress at home, re
turned to Washington this week to take
part in the closing vote on the taritl bill.
He says there is very little talk among
his constituents about the tariff bill noth
ing approaching the general interest that
was shown when the Mills and McKinley
bills were before Congiess. anil that
there isn't any more talk or interest dis
played nbout silver. This lack of interest
auscs Mr. Robertson to think that it is
impossible to say at this time what will
be the issues in the next Presidential
campaign.
The refusal of President McKinley to
furnish the Senate copies of the llehring
Sea correspondence with England, which
were asked for by a Senate resolution
adopted some weeks ago, although based
upon the usual ground "incompatibili
ty with public interest" has resulted in
starting a number of wild rumors con
cerning the belligerent tone of Unit cor
respondence that may result in doing
much more harm than the publication
of the correspondence would have done.
Heretofore the present administration
has been conducting its foreign policy
open to the inspection of Senators and
Representatives, and this return to the
secretive methods of the Cleveland re
gime is not fancied in Congress, nor, in
fact, anywhere else, it breeds too many
sensational rumors, whicli are not les
sened by the publication it Secretary
Sherman's instructions to Ambassador
Hav, which plainly say thnt Lord Salis
bury has not been acting in good faith.
There is but one opinion in Washing
ton nbout the orders sent to Admiral
Beardsley, to hoist the U S. flag over
Hawaii and take possession in the name
of this government, in case there is any
indication of an attempt on the part of
the Japanese, or anybody else, to inter
fere with the existing government of
Hawaii, and thnt is that the orders were
properly issued. The Senate committee
on Foreign Relations has done its part
towards backing up these ordeis by
favorably reporting the annexation treaty.
