New YORK, July 2S.-In his speech
Yesterday at the banquet in honor OF the
laying of the French cable, Sir James An
derson said he had been told that certain
opposition had been made TO the landing
Of the cable Ii might be due 10 the same
kind Of enterprises, perhaps TO Mr.. Field
and his colleague, but he did not care Tor
that; he WAS quite sure.tha the American
people would not be unjust that they
would not allow any company TO spend
million Of money 10 unite two great CONT
nents together without giving them q talr
show; at least lac believed il would be weak
and foolish on the part of the company to
work for undue sympathy or partiality. Ii
they could not work a. we'll As the rival
company or faster, they had no right to
the public support, and would not get 1t,
whatever the public sympathy might be.
The cable was therefore laid IA 4 purely
commercial enterprise. Every right think
ing person trusted that il would promote
peace. God forbid that il might ever be
used as a weapon of war.

WHEAT-Receipts continue Liberal 6y
rail, but they are chiefly purchases made
by millers, and are not offered in this mar
ket. Prices, however, are firm, and the

By examining your prices in to-day's
paper, it will be seen that prices are
lower here than at either Of the points
named, and the margin between the prices
of wheat and flour is greater at those
