MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
Cotton Letter.

CottOn Letter.
 New York, July 28.-eSpecial.) )-This was a bad day for the bears. Liverpoors re- sponse to our advance of yesterday was not regarded as very enthusiastic and opening prices were slightly lower. January selling at 6.3S and 6.37. For g. time the market re- mained only steady, but the serious charac- ter of some crop complaints received from the Memphis district led to the simultane- ous receipt by two leading brokerage houses of two orders from New Orleans to buy 5000 Decembers Then the fun began. The brokers bidding against each other caused prices to climb rapidly. This brought in other buyers and the market continued firm with inconsiderable fluctuations for the rest of the day. January rose to 6.53 and closed at 6.49, with the tone steady. It's hard 10 say whether the advance will be sustained tomorrow. It will all depend upon Liver pool and the crop news. Apart from this, tomorrow being notice day for August de- liveries, ought to be an interesting day It may throw some light upon the question of an August squeeze.

In the course OF the evening she gave few more

to be suffering from slight cold, there was no

sang an air from Boitos "Mefstofele" and one
from Hamlet the latter is not very interesting

Gounod with piano accompaniment, and spanish

Venezuelan proclamation and the slump Of
American securities abroad. Others talk about
the uncertainties Of the currency question the
vagares Of jingoism, the menace offered to Spain
in Cuban Intervention and the excitement Of
an approaching Presidential election. Perhaps
the favorite theory is that the American market
was overstocked with goods last year, and that
owing to the poverty Of the average consumer
and to the recklessness CT financial measures
business is paralyzed.
Neither the English manufacturer nor the free
trade economist ever pauses to consider that
the disorders OF American finance and the con-
traction Of trade have accompanied a deliberate
attempt to introduce their own tariff Ideas in
the United States. They choose to assume that
the Wilson tariff is almost strongly protec-
ZIONIST as the Mckinley tariff and lose sight OF
the fact that the abandonment Of distinctvey
American principles and the substitution for
them of English economies, in crude and ill-di-
gested form, have exercised an appreciable effect
upon the National fortunes Certainly II was not
until President Cleveland and his party. after
eighteen months of uncertainty. took up English
lines OF practice and reversed the American
policy Of economic independence, under which
national prosperity had been the marvel of the
modern world and the despair Of European
financiers, that there was any uncertainty about
American credit abroad or any collapse OF pur-
chasing power in the United States. l. N. F.

INTERNAL TROUBLES OF FRANCE MAY
AFFECT FOREIGN RELATIONS.
SUGGESTION THAT THE POWERS SHOULD USE
THEIR INFLUENCE TO SECURE NEW FORM
OF GOVERNMENT FOR THE REPUBLIC
RIVALRY OF RAPID-FIRE GUNS.

OF GOVERNMENT FOR THE REPUBLIC
RIVALRY OF RAPID-FIRE GUNS.
Berlin, April 26-The prospect OF a collision be-
tween the French Senate and the Chamber OF Dep
titles resulting from changes in the Constitution
placing no control over the power Of a single cham
Der is regarded in responsible Government quarters
here a matter OF the gravest concern The mere
resignation of Cabinet upon a party question has
long been considered a matter OF small moment
but the present situation threatens to shake the
stability Of the external relations of the French Re-
public.
In article commenting upon this state OF az
fairs the National Zeitung" holds to the belief that
henceforth the permanency Of the policy OF France
is impossible to rely upon. and that sooner or later
the internal troubles of the Republic Will be reflected
upon the relations OF France with foreign Powers
The 'Vosssche Zeitung" expresses fear that the
Constitution OF France will not furnish President
Faure with adequate means to avert an ultimate
conflict between the two chambers though he may
be able to hit upon temporary expedents 10 delay
the struggle. which is nearing the inevitable, ana
the interested European Powers ought 10 exert
their influence TO the end Of securing new form
Of government for France.
The feeling Of uneasiness inspiring these and SINH
lar by the press Is due to belief that the
existence Of the Senate restraints the dangerous i'm
pulses OF the Democratic Chamber. Whatever po-
iitical phases OF government France has had since
1870, OF them has ceased to prepare to take
the forefront In conflict for the restoration or her
military supremacy in Europe.
1t has been learned by the German War Office
that the Bourgeois Ministry some time before It's
fall had decided ask the chambers for credit OF
10000 90 francs for the purpose OF supplying the
army with rapidhre guns OF a pattern superior 70
any that has yet been produced. THIS, however,
was not a surprise to the War Once, which had al
ready provided designs for new quick-firing gun
supposed to be a great deal more effective than the
proposed French weapon The invention has long
been in the possession of the War Office and has been
kept complete secret. the Government being reluct
order the construction of the guns az radical
change in the artillery equipment or the army would
involve an outlay OF 2oo00o.C0c marks. Now that
France Is likely TO obtain new and forTnidaDie
gun IL is Imperative that the Reichstag should pc
asked for the necessary credits 10 strengthen me
artillery equ!pmt 1T OF Germany. Confidence Is felt
in official circles that the Reichstag Will recognize
the fact thai the artillery arm OF the military ser
vice urgently requires the credit and that upon
hearing the Ministerial statement upon the subject
may also grant naval credit, ana so brins poth
