NEW York. May 2l.-There was less
done than yesterday, yet in sounding
the market many inquiries were made,
followed by offers at prices of two weeks
ago that were declined. Compared with
a year ago stocks of all descriptions of
cotton goods are very much SUI aller. and
many BUYERS are becoming impressed
with this fact. yet no advance III prices
appears possible at present. A little
later a change may be developed.

WASHINGTON, May 24.-At the open
Ing of the session of the Senite today.
Mr.. Kyle urged the passage OF his res
o ution declaring that it was not the
purpose of the United States to use
force to restore Liliuokalaui as queen of
the Hawaiian islands, and that any
foreign interference with those Islands
would be regarded as an act of hostility
to the United States.
Mr.. Daniel Dem, Va.) objected to
action on the resolution, until the reso-
luton OH the same subject reported by
the foreign affairs committee had first
been acted upon. Mr.. Frye (Rep.,
Me- advocated the passage of this
or a similar resolution, saying that he
had information from two responsible
persons to the effect that the moment
the senate acted. the queen would resign
all pretense TO the throne, AMI accept a
money compensation therefor. This
being the condition on the islands, in
the name of humanity he appealed to
the senate to pass this or similar reSo-
lUtlons.
