of Congress, entitled An act TO abol-

the tonnage duty which is imposed by
said section IL Of the act approved June

TALK OF A THIRD CALL.
Two ExpeJitfonary Forces to Leave
America


Neither Secretary Alger nor officials of
the Navy Department will discuss the
subject, but here and there enough in
formation has filtered through the various
channels to justify the statement that
two expeditionary forces viii leave Amer
lea almost simultaneously. One will go to
Porto Rico; the destination OF the other
is a matter Of speculation.
1t may be the intention to seize and
hold the Canaries. If a considerable force
is sent there America will not only es-
tablish a base of supplies for Watson's
fleet. but will also set up a provisional
government in the territory occupied.
Then, when Porto Rico falls, the inva-
sion of Spain itsef Will be a matter of
choice for America.
Commodore Watson can, and # is be-
lieved he will, take at least one Spanish
port, which would enable America. after
Spains Atlantic outposts are captured,
TO throw 100000 men into the kingdom it
self
In this connection, the talk of a third
call for troops is revived.
1t is not likely that the invasion of the
peninsula would be undertaken before
October. In that time, 100000 additional
troops could be armed, equipped and drill
ed, ready for service.
Whether this be the program or not 1t
is certain that the Administration is pro-
ceeding on the theory that Spain will re-
ter in the meantime, it will be very graft
tying, but no more peace talk, official or
semi-official, will emanate from Washing
ton.

STOCK MARKET FIRM
News of Peace Negotiations Causes
an Advance.
The Trading in United States Three
Per Cents Decidedly
Animated.

New York, July 2o.-The stock market
gave a more definite response to the
favorable news of the morning than it
has done TO any development since the
destruction of Cervera's ships. This
news was of the decision of the Spanish
cabinet to open negotiations for peace,
and after making due allowance for dip
Iomatic bubbles and denials, it is prob
able that the initial steps in this respect
have been already taken.
a further decline in Spanish four per
cents had no necessary significance as
negativing the peace reports, as the for
eign cabled advices set forth that the
weakness in the bonds was due to the
belief that the American conditions of
peace would be very rigorous in respect
of the concession of Spanish territory.
The decided strength of the new United
States three per cents, on the other hand,
could be accepted as confrmatory of the
peace rumors. The preliminary trading
in these bonds was very animated today.
and transactions at 103 1-2 were reported.
The better tone evident in the days
dealings was attended by very little in
crease in activity. The London market
for American stocks was favorably af-
fected by the same influence that was
effective here. namely, the rumors of the
opening of peace negotiations. The trad
ing for foreign account was, however, of
unimportant proportions. There was lit
tie news with the course of the day CAL
culated 10 affect prices.
Active dealings in the industrials.
which were largely the result OF manipu-
lation orders. made them conspicuous
features of the market. With the ex-
ception of Sugar. this group was all
strong, and Tobacco and the Feather and
Rubber shares advanced smartly. There
was no particular news bearing upon
these stocks or the general market.
The comparative dullness of the rail-
way list was doubtless in part due to the
general knowledge that the roads are
fr!ttering away the profits of one of the
most prosperous periods they have had,
or are likely 10 have in rate-cutting and
rebating.

DRAWING TO A CLOSE.
Arguments by Counsel in Senator
KeHncy's Case

KeBncy's Case.
Wilmington, Dell. July M.-The case OF
Senator Kenney is expected to go TO the
Jury tomorrow afternoon. District At
torney Vandegrift will finish his clos
ing argument at the opening of the ses-
sion. and then the jury will be charged.
Mr.. Vandegrift finished his opening ar
gument this morning, and was followed
by Levi c. Byrd for the defense.
Senator Gray followed, and spoke ear
nestly and with vigor. He he'd that no
evidence had been produced against Ken
ney save that given by Boggs, who, 1t
has been shown. had lived lie. It was
necessary, Mr.. Gray said, TO prove crimi
nal intent, and that had not been done.
and he asked the jury to give the de-
fendent the benefit of the doubt.
Mr.. Vandegrift's closing argument was
strong He said he had refrained from
alluding to the high position held by the
accused, but It had been injected by the
defense. He has been willing 10 let the
jury consider the matter man for man.
The defense had used the defendants po-
sition to shield him. Had it been known
that Kenney was engaged with the de-
faulting teller in using checks unknown
10 the proper bank authorities he would
never have been elected.
He said that he might have made the
point that Senator sKenney had disgraced
his State and his position, and that Boggs
had made it possible for Kenney to Sc
cure his high position by supporting his
credit

WHEAT MARKET STRONG.
Crop Damage in the Northwest
Causes Advance

Chicago. July 20.-The excessively high
temperature in the Northwest. which
was said to have caused damage to the
wheat crop, has been followed by a de-

wheat. September sold at 81 IL and 81 81

The demand for spot wheat for imme-
