LOCAL STOCK MARKET IS CONFIDENT

New York, Oct 14.-Locally little in
terest was shown in to-day's general
market. The print cloth situation was
extensively discussed by all cotton goods
men, and this took the place of efforts
to sell goods. Mail orders were fairly
numerous, but buyers were few to-day.
The threatening weather had some
thing to do with keeping buyers from
nearby places out of the city, but in the
main, it is believed that there will be
little heavy recovering before really cold
weather sets in

SITUATION AT KEY WEST.
Seventeen Converted Vessels of War

Seventeen Converted Vessels of War
in the uarbor.
Correspondence OF the Associated Press;
Copyright. 1893. by the Associated Press.
Key West, Fla, May 23.-Yesterday, soon
after the sailing of Rear Admiral Samp-
son squadron. Commodore schley's squad
ron having gone to The south of Cuba a
day or two before. there were left at Key
West seventeen vessels Of war, these con-
sistlng entirely of converted tugs and aux
Hilary gunboats of small size, but consider
able fighting power.
y few changes are expected to take
place in The Key West complement in a
day or so.
The work OF terrifying Key West has
gone along rapidly. The old fort to be
sure. with its ancient cannon. is of small
account, but the new fort is Of a substan-
tial character and Will mount some for
midable guns. Already one 8-inch rife
has been placed in position TO command
the wide range beyond the bar, and others
are now being rapidly put IN place, con-
t.ngeut of men having been sent down
from Tampa for that purpose.
All night long the great searchlight on
Fort Taylor sweeps the horizon. Other
cditilitE nus on the WdISNlpS are constant
ly al work, many boats being utilized at
night target practice.
AT Tampa there are now about Is 600
regulars and many thousands of volun-
teers. There are daily arrivals of troops
AT Tampa, Port Tampa and Lakeland, but
some of the volunteer regiments have not
yet received their complete accOuterments.
The latter will be soon forthcoming.
Here at Key West, after a dry season
of five months, the rain has come al last
and renewed the drinking water supply.
At Tampa they are tenting in the sand
hills about the town, strictly disciplined,
kept closely to regulation diet, with not
much amusement, anxiously waiting for
the order 10 move on Cuba. This il is
generally believed by army men will not
be received at an early date, for there is.
first of all the state of Florida eXpedi-
ton to be heard from, an expedition 20
supply Gen. Maxine Gomez with arms
and ammunition. There are score or
more additional transports to be harbor-
ed in Tampa bay under guard of the gum
boat Helena
Additional thousands of troops are to be
modified m Southern Florida and the
question of properly arming them has be-
come. it is said, one of no little serious
ness.
Work Will soon be begun on the small
Islands adjoining Key West, constructing
a building that may answer the purpose Of
either a hospital for the wounded or q
quarantine station. 1t is intended to OBJ
serve tie stTictest quarantine just as soon
as landing in Cuba is effected by tho
