Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
NEW YORK, Nov. A-Opening prices
this morning reflected an improvement
ranging from Ia to "a per cent, ana were
improved somewhat on subsequent trans
actions. London was dull and fractionally
lower. without any special feature.
There was some covering in the early
hours that resulted in a marking up of
values, but the bear party have not In the
slightest degree relinquished their control
of the situation. The market is extremely
narrow. and will probably continue 30 until
the attention of investment seekers is turn
ed In the direction of stocks, instead OF
bonds, which have Of late absorbed ali the
money that came into the street. The enor-
nous amount Of idle money now awaiting
a satisfactory opportunity for investment
must eventually be forced into the stock
market and with its appearance will come
activity and higher prices.
The character of the market is unchane-
ed, and trading is dull and lifeless, owing
TO the dearth of news Activity comes in
spurts whenever an effort is made to buy
back stocks sold at higher figures but Sc
never long sustained. Some idea may be
had OF the narrowness from the fact that
a small block of Manhattan, less than 500
shares, put the price OF that security on
S-4 per cent before a purchaser for the
last hundred shares could be found

HIS VIEWS WANTED,
What Will the President Say About Our
Navy7
RumOrs on Both Sides, Toward an In
crease and q Decrease-Hard
to Get Appropriation.

There are many people who would like to
know just what the President is going to
say in his message to Congress. A little
advance information on the subject would
be keeniy appreciated by naval folks es-
pecially, and they are eagerly waiting for
tips. There are many reasons why they
should be anxious. for the air is full of ru-
mors regarding the Presidents policy In
relation to the navy. One is to the effect
Chinaizing system, whereby our interests
abroad will be brought to a minimum and
the necessity for a large naval force will be
greatly reduced. Again it is reported that
the President intends to urge a vigorous
foreign policy, inaugurated by the decidedly
aggressive move towards Hawaii, and this
will force upon the country the need of con-
siderable increase in naval force.
There is Just this anxiety exhibited each
views. But the discovery that some of the
smaller gunboats are a bit top-heavy and
that the cruiser New York is too big for
the dry docks has caused some of the
watchdogs Of the treasury, on the appro-
priations committees of Congress to de-
clare that they do not intend to grant any
more requests for new ships IL they are to
be "botched.'
1t is said that Chairman Cummings of the
House naval committee despairs of secur-
ing any liberal allowances unless the inter-
national complications should make them
necessary. So 1t is that the naval people
are pinning their faith in the President and
their hopes alternately rise and fall as ru-
mors are started about his Intentions

DECIPHERING A MESSAGE.
Supposed To Have Come From Minister
Willis at Honolulu.

A mysterious cipher telegram was re-
ceived at the Navy Department late yes
terday afternoon, and its deciphering oc-
cupied the entire force of experts several
hours. The general impression was that
the dispatch was one from Minister Willis,
which he had charged Commodore Skerrett
to put upon the wires Immediately upon his
arrival at San Francisco. 1t is inferred
that the minister was permitted to use his
own discretion in fixing the time when he
should proceed TO enforce the new policy
OF the administration toward the provision
al government. Evidently he had made no
definite move in that direction up TO the
morning of the sailing of the China on the
Hth instant. He had then been three days
upon the ground, probably a sufficient time
TO enable him to arrange his plans, and 1t
was supposed that his communication to
the Secretary Of State, il such was the
communication, was statement TO the
department of his intentions in the execu-
ton of his instructions.

PREPARING FOR CIVIL WAR.
A Honolulu Banana Dealer Says That
Men Are secretly Drilling.

TACOMA, Wash. Nov. H-S. w. Har-
vey, a Honolulu banana dealer, who ar
rived by the Canadian-Australian steamer
Warrimore, says: "A company of 800
whites have been drilling with Winchester
rifles for a long time in anticipation of
disturbance. Each man has his man picked
out and after the first shot is fired 1 have
no doubt but that there will be plenty Of
bloodshed. The friends of the provisional
government do not SO much hate the de-
posed queen as they do her hangers-on.
Her following is detested. Every night
after dark the men who are quietly drilling
used to go out past my house at Honolulu.
They have their rifles secreted in their
houses. They anticipate that the royalists
If re-instated will be more offensive than
ever. This offensiveness is exactly what
would cause the trouble. If the American
and other war ships do not turn in and
hold the town of Honolulu down there Will
surely be bloodshed when the royalists come
into power. There is no telling what would
become of business under such a change.
The prospect is not hopeful"
