The Cotton CrOp,

Washington, Nov. l3.-The monthly
report OF the statisticIan of the depart
ment of agriculture will state that the
most thorough investigation of the cot
ton situation that has been made since
1895 has just been completed. Spec
ial agents from the Washington office
have visited all the principal points in
the cotton belt, investigating both acre
age and production. Pending the re-
ceipt of final reports as to picking, due
December |, no detailed statement will
be issued, but the statistician states
that on the basis of the highest estimate
OF the area under cultivation for which
the department can find any warrant,
%, 500, 900 acres, the crop cannot ex-
coed $500, 900 bales. This estimate is
based on the most complete and trust
worthy information.

rRANS-PACIEIC CABLE.
The Route Crosses Deep Abysses and
High Mountains.

New YORK, Nov. 13.-A special to
the Tribune from Washington says:
Rear-Admiral Bradford has com.
pleted the official naval project for a
trans-Pacitic submarine cable between
San Francisco and Manila in time to
supply congress with all the essential
information at the opening OF the next
session that will permit intelligent con-
sideration of the subject and prompt ac-
ton for the inauguration of the great
work
All doubt has been removed regard
ing the practicability of the enterprise
by the adoption of Honolulu, Midway
and Guam as relay stations on the long
line, and by the discoveries made from
the naval-survey ship Nero as to the
character OF the ocean bed between
those points. The sounding instru-
ments OF this ship disclosed an abyss
in the Western Pacific over five miles
Deep but slight divergence from a
straight line fortunately developed a
route avoiding this insuperable obstacle
to laying a working cable. At another
point, on the same stretch between
Midway and Guam, submerged noun
tain over IL, 900 feet in height was dis
covered, and reasonably level road
around this was found.
The physical practicability of the
line now having been assured beyond
doubt, it only remains for congress to
weigh the military necessities and COM
mercial advantages to accrue from the
construction and operation of the sys-
TEN. 1t was represented to congress
at its last session that the revenue to be
expected from the Pacific cable would
not attract private capital unless it
had connection with Australia, Japan
and China, as well as with San Fran
cisco, Honolulu and Manila.
For that reason it was deemed indis-
pensable that the United States should
own Stronge island, in the Caroline
group, or a cable landing there to in
sure the working of loopto Australia.
The absence of this may deter any
corporation from undertaking the oper-
alton of cable across the Pacific with
out heavy subsidy.

The Cruiser and Her Men,

Washington, Nov. l5.-The Charles
ton has been in Asiatic waters more
than year. She was one of the first
vessels to be sent to Manila after the
destruction of the Spanish fleet by Ad-
miral Dewey, the navy department
utilizing her for the purpose of sending
ammunition and other supplies for the
Asiatic station. Just previous to her
assignment to that duty she had under
gone an overhauling at the Mare island
navy-yard, San Francisco, and there
fore, was in prime condition for her
duties. The Charleston is one OF the
vessels of more recent construction,
and belongs to that class which is COM
monty referred to as the new navy.
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1899-11-16

Manila, Nov. 15.-The Charleston
ran aground near Vignan, on a hidden
reef, with 35 fathoms of water on both
sides. She worked her machinery for
two Gays and nights in trying to get
ahoat, but, a typhoon arising, the crew
was compelled to take to the boats a.
seek refuge on small island five mile.
away. The natives are friendly.
Lieutenant Mcdonald aud a number
of sailors put off in a small boat and
reached the Gala, which brought them
to Manila.
The gunboat Helena has been dis
patched to bring away the crew.
Lieutenant Mcdonald describes the
Charleston, when he last saw her, as
hard and fast aground with her bottom
badly stove, and well out of tie water.

Alaska Winter Mail.

o. G. Richardson, the United States
mail contractor, has just returned to
Seattle from White Horse, where he
went to perfect arrangements for the
transportation of the United States
mails up and down the Yukon this
winter.
The route extends down the river to
St. Michaels, and over the frozen ex.
panse the mailcarriers must trudge once
every month in each direction. From
st. Michaels to Cape Nome the mail
will have to be carried in by others, as
Mr. Richardson delivers it only as far
rs st. Michael. The trip to the diggings
will probbay be brideed by volunteers.
The mail up and down the Yukon
was delivered last winter as it will DO
this. The addition of big mining
camp with several thousand more popu-
lntion will increase the postal business
to such an extent that it is very doubt
full if the monthly dog and sled service
will be equal to it.

LANDED UNDER FIRE.
How Wheaton's Army Disembarked at
San Fabian.

Manila, Nov. l3.-The landing of
the American troops at San Fabian
Tuesday was the most spectacular affair
of its kind since General Skaters dis
embarkation at Daiquiri. The cooper
alton of the troops and the navy was
complete. The gunboats maintained a
terrific bombardment for an hour while
the troops rushed waist deep through
the surf under a heavy but badly
aimed rifle fire from the insurgent
trenches and charged right and left,
pouring volley after volley at the fee
ing rebels. Forty Filipinos were cap
tured, mostly commissioned off,
GERS. Several insurgent dead and five
wounded were found in a building
which had suffered from the lombard
ment. The town was we'll fortified.
The sand dunes were riveted with bam-
boo 20 feet thick, which afforded fine
cover.

aged. Details are anxiously awaited.

sRAoSTREET'S REVIEW.
/ strength of Prices the Leading Features
of the Trade situation.


OF the Trade situation.
Bradstreet's says:
Strength OF prices, a natural outcome
Of the past and present active demand,
is still the leading feature of the trade
situation, Notwithstanding unseasonably
warm weather in some sections of the
country tends to restrict retail trade
and necessarily exercise some effect ON
recorders and collections by jobbers.
The strength of textile, both raw and
manufactured, has been further accen-
tuated during the week, increases being
noted in raw cotton, wool and hemp.
Wool has been equally strong, al
though transactions are smaller and
material gain in prices is to be noted.
while from the manufactured goods
branch it was reported of confident
strength and OF future advances in
mems wear, goods and carpets.
Cereals appear TO have reached
dead level, with prices showing little
or no change. The dullness of wheat
at domestic markets finds explanation
in Bradstreet's statistics of worlds
stocks, which indicate gain for the
month of over 1900, 900 bushels, con.
tributcd entirely from American
sources, however, as foreign supplies
showed slight shrinkage.
Anxiety in lumber is feature at
many markets, and strength of prices
is no less marked. Signs accumulate
that shoe manufacturers and jobbers
are meeting with success in securing
recently advanced prices. Hides and
leather are alphabetically strong. and
shoe manufacturers are actively EN-.
ployed.
In iron and steel there is rather more
irregularity noted. Active demand on
railroad account has induced an adj.
vance in iron and steel bars of - per
ton, but steel billets are lower. There
is a heavy volume of business reported
in pig iron for late 1900 delivery, and
that product is slightly higher at the
East.

CHANGES IN THE SENATE.
Effect OF the Recent State Elections
Two Seats Unchanged.


Two Seats Unchanged.
Washington, Nov. l5.-But four of
the present state legislatures will
choose United States senators. In Ken.
lucky, successor to Senator Lindsay,
probably Blackburn, will be chosen,
Blackburn controlling the legislature.
In Virginia, Martin, having control of
the Legislature, will be returned. In
Iowa, Gear will be returned, and the
Mississippi legislature will elect Nc
Laurin to succeed Sullivan. This will
leave two seats unchanged, replace a
gold Democrat in Kentucky by a silver
Democrat, and in Mississippi silver
man will succeed one of his own party.
The holdovers elected this fall who will
vote for United States senators are in
New Jersey and Maryland The MEM
bers of the New Jersey legislature, just
elected, are almost universally for Sew
ell. and he will probably be returned,
while in Maryland the holdovers are
anti-Wellington men, and will prob
ably support their newly elected COVER
nor, Smith, for the senate in case Cor
man withdraws, as he promised to do.
There are FOLLOWERS in other states that
will vote for United States senator's,
but they were not affected by the re.
cent elections.

SCATTERING THE REBELS.
Energy OF the Americans Demoralizes
the FiIipinos.


the FiIipinos.
Manila, Nov. 15.-General Young is
supposed to have reached San Nicholas,
about 80 miles east OF Dagupan, but
his wagons are far behind. Colonel
Hayes has captured Aguinaldo's secre-
tary, and Major Coleman is in Carrang-
Ian with an escort IF l75 bolomen, on
his way to the province of Neuva Viz
caya. A son of General Llaneras and
his family are prisoners. The general
barely escaped.
A correspondent of the press with
General Young telegraphs from San
Jose that Aguinaldo did not escape to
the northwest. He and his army, the
correspondent adds. are surrounded.
His last orders to the Filipino COM
mander at San Jose were to hold San
Jose and Carrangian at all costs.
The recent encounters were too one
sided TO be called fights. The insur-
gents are mortally afraid of the Ameri-
cans, however, strong their position.
They make but brief and feeble resist
ance, and run when the terrible Ameri-
can yell reaches their ears, whereupon
the Americans pursue them and Stay
them.
The moral effect OF the news that
60, 900 troops are on their way here has
been unquestionably great.
Insurgents are suffering more from
disease than from the Americans, ow-
ing to poor food, lack OF medicines, and
filthy hospitals, with the result that
there is great mortality among them.
General Lawton has intercepted a
telegram from an insurgent captain to
a Filipino general, reading:
GLOW can you blame me for retreat
ing when only II of my company were
able to fight"
