The market opened steady, with prices unchanged to two points under yesterdays final figures. which caused a further decline Of to D points The weakness was due to the m dications of a heavy movement Of cotton all over the South, disappointing cable accounts from the English market.

MARTIAL SONS OFA NOTED S|RES.

Commander Charles H. Stockton, U. s. N, is scion of the illustrious New Jersey family of that name noted in military annals, in science, literature, education, journalism and jurispru- dence. Commodore Robert T. Stock ton (1795-1866), his father, whose serv- ices at Los Angeles and San Diego, Cal, form an important part of our national history, was the son of United States senator and the grandson of a signer of the Declaration of Independence.
 Captain Aren't s. Crowninshield, the efficient chief of the bureau of navigation at Washington, had two ancestors, Jacob and B. w., who were both secretaries of the navy. Every officer above the rank of lieutenant remembers the gen. ial secretary to the commandant for so many years at the Charlestown (Bos- ton) navy yard.
 McLane Triton, a connection of the Maryland McLanes and Tiltons, now a retired lieutenant colonel of the marine corps, living at Annapolis, was a de- termined fighter, as are the Turnbulls of both the army and navy. He is a son of Captain Tilton, U. s. N, whose untimely death in 1861 was a source of widespread grief. His son, McLane Til- ton, Jr. is a member of the Michigan naval reserves and has been enrolled tor active service on the lakes.

them, as they could not possibly take a part in the bombardment, were now fully satisfied that they would be able to "enjoy" themselves. A l pound shell striking the Porter in vulnerable spot would have disabled if not quickly sunk her, and the terrible impact of the pro- jectiles fired at her can readily be im- agined, but the Jack Tars, with a bravery that deserves p@ans of praise and an aggressive attitude that seems almost ridiculous, sprang to their 1 pound rapid fire gun and poured back defiance For few minutes the Porter presented her complete broadside from bow to stern to the Spanish batteries, and yet she steamed past safe and sound.
 When she was once again beyond the range of the enemy's fire, there was quick signaling from the admiraps flag ship.
 Mot one man, was the answer to Sampsons question, How many have you lost? Further. the torpedo boat sent back the message, We are not in- jured, for not one shot struck us.
 This escape of little torpedo boat from imminent destruction is one of the marvels of our naval warfare with Spain.

father, the dashing military leader, for whom he is named, is enrolled among his country's defenders. His mother, long a resident of Washington, is one of the most noted and most beloved wo- men of the day. :.
 Ensign Walter R. Gherardi, on board the Nashville, is son of the lately re- tired Rear Admiral Bancroft Gherardi.
 The name Fremont awakens memo- ries of the great "Pathfinder," the first bearer of the banner of the Republican party and the man who gave California to the Union. His son, John C., Is lieutenant in command of the torpedo boat Porter, which has already made a record about the Cuban shores. This officer has a son, John c. Fremont, Jr, the third of the name, who is naval cadet in the third class at Annapolis. The son and grandson of the famous general are therefore in the naval serv- ice, though there is another son, Fran cis F., who Is first lieutenant of the Third infantry.
 The true Fremont spirit was exhibit- ed at the recent bombardment of San Juan, Puerto Rico, when Lieutenant John c. Fremont, commanding the tor pedo boat Porter. supposing that a drowning bluff was entirely free from
