JOHN D. LONG ON THE NAVY.
And It's Preparedness for the War
 With Spain.

am glad you are saying good words for the improvement of the navy or any other department But are you not wrong in saying that the navy de- partmcut K never prepared for war? In what respect? So far as the law and the appropriations of congress Were concerned, was it not prepared for the war with Spain? The ships were all supplied with coal Of which there was no failure during the war al any point where t was wanted The same is true of ammunition Indeed, Dewey used only third. at thc battle of Manila bay of what he had on hand; and an abundant supply was forwarded him as needed There was no lack of or delay in furnishing clothing, medical supplies, rations mon or machinery. The bureau chiefs deserve special com mendaton for their foresight and care in having under the direction of the secretary, put the navy in most credItablc state of preparedness. The proof of the pudding Is In the eating, and you cannot have forgotten the uni- versal credit that was given to the navl for It's record in that respect dur ing and at the close of the war
 or course there are many things t could not have. | was limited in ob- taining them, not by its own lack of preparedness but by the action of con gross in limiting It's appropriations When the war was once on congress put an emergency fund of S500O0. GOO in President McKinlcy's hands, little more than half of which he assigned to the navy department, which promptly spent it for further needs, And ] have always regarded t as one of the credits of the navy department that there was no financial scandal or cor. rupt act charged against lt throughout the war

(Continued from Fourteenth Page. movement is supposed 10 represent The genuine investment buying is re- cognizable by its sober methods A volatile and excited price movement is more likely to repel the investment buying than to attract it Probably the confidence that conditions favor gen. uine investment buying, which 1t would be unwse to discourage had its in fluence ln the quieting of the more purely speculative maneuvers in the market. The realizing pressure was most pronounced in some of the stocks which were most conspicuous in racent sudden advances, incuding some of the lower priced railroad stocks called eligible for mergers, but em- bracing also some of the high priced speculative favorites
 The railroad deal continued to play part in the speculation and to touch some new stocks with It's animating influence. Tho copper ndustriale showed themselves unrcsponsivc td trade reports of the same hopeful character which proved edicacious in raising their prices yesterday. Copper metal was marked up again at the New York metal exchange and in the London market and further reports were heard Of an active movement amongst consumers to take refined copper, but that group sagRed to low CT prices, notwithstanding this stimn- lant. There was much discussion yes terday of the important effect on ral- road earnings to result from the pro. posed advance in freight rates on January 1 of which notice has been filed with the interstate commerce commission, The amount of public agitation aroused against this propos. cd advance came into larger consid- eration to-day owing to reports Of the holding of mass meetings in CalifOr- mia to protest against the intended advance on behalf of shippers. ThC closing tone of the stock market was distinctly weak after a day of hesita. tion
 Profit taking was an influence on some of the speculative bonds as well as stocks. and the tone of the bond division was rather irregular. Deal. ings were still on a largo scale Total sales par value $g.044O0O. United States 3s declined 3-S per cent or call.

The Public
"Are'' Inundated.

Our esteemed local contemporary
has expressed itself regarding the
Cumberland telephone controversy,
and the position which it takes on the
question is about as logical as the
language which it uses to convey it,
Read this, please-and mark the fact
that the PUBLIC ARE HUMILI-
ATED":
This constantly wrangling and
snarling and 'Chawin the rag with the
Cumberland Telephone Company by
the city council in Hattiesburg has
about gone the limit and the public
have reached the end of their patience
with the business, which has now
descended to a plane where the pub
lie are Inundated and mortified by the
spectacle presented"
And the paragraph is reproduced

columns in black type takes himself
seriously.

Men of large means are not contrib

campaign as promptly and as liber-
ally as in the past, fearing publicity.
Now why should they have any fears
of publicity, if there is everything
square and nothing wrong about their
for the party, to say the least of it
and it does look fishy.

The promoters of that proposed new
railroad from Meridian to Natchez
seem to be in earnest, and it occurs
to the News that it would be we'll for
a connecting link in the new system.
No railroad should be permitted to
come so close to Hattiesburg without
actually entering the gates of the city.
