at English yards. Commander w. II. Brownson,
who sailed from New York for Southampton
by tho st. Paul to-day. has instructions to at.
tempt to straighten out the difficulty which has
arisen from Great Brltaiu's reported attitude.
He is man Of tact and ability, and the Presi-
dent and Secretary Long have the greatest con-
fidence that he will succeed In his mission. IL
success is possible. Tho OHiggins. which the
Armstrong; are building for Chill. is con.
sidered to be the most desirable armorclad
supposed to be in the market, and Commander
Brownson's first efforts will be devoted to Sc
curing prompt assurance from Chill, through
its representatives in London. aud the Arm
strong Company that tho United States will
have first choice in her purchase. Until
Commander Brownson Is able to consult with
them personally. tho Woodworking naval at
taches will visit every shipyard in Europe
where vessels that might be bought are
undcr construction. They are making daily re-
ports to the Navy Department in regard to such

as to the progress of work on them and tho like.
