PRESIDENT DELIN-
 BATES PHILOSOPHY
In Address Before Seven Hun dred AppOintees, Wilson Says Political Faith EmbOdies Ser vice-PraiSe for BurlesOn.

Washington, July 20.-The philoS- ophv of his political faith which he termed service and unselhshness ; was delineated by President Wilson tonight in an address to about 700 nostmasters virtually all his own ap- nointees at the annual banquec of the National Association of Presden- tiaI Postmasters.
 He also touched upon the subject of peace but only to say that ir no other country are the possessors of peace so free to move. The president in prefacing his remarks said he understood his auditors were viI- tually all Democrats and that there fore he was more free to say certain things than he might otherwise have been.
 There is only one way of holding the confidence of the American pub lie and that is by deserving and I know by my intercourse that with the postmaster general, his single o5- feet has been to make the postotiice of more service to the people of the United States than it has ever been before l have no interests in the political party except as an instru- ment of achievement.
 q inherited my democracy but 1t would not be in my blood long if the red corpuscles didn't have some thing to it and if the democratic par ty will bear all it's efforts to under stand the United States and serve it it will be continued in power so long as it pratcices that devotion"
 The president declared that in every community the postoflce is .he conspicuous gauge and standard of what the government is doing for the people. He concluded: "The message l would bring tonight is let us band ourselves together and let us prove to the people of the United States that We understand what they want and are readier to do it better than anybody else they can find"

NAVAL BILL7AGAIN
 MADE THE TARGET
Senator LaFOlIette Again De- layed Passage of Naval Bill, By Making Long Harangue- Spur Other Nations.

Washington, July 20-Senator La Toilette again delayed a passage of the naval bill today continuing until a few minutes before adjournment the attack he began yesterday against the measure. As soon as he con cluded the senate defeated 44 to s his amendment to prohibit the use of the navy to collect private debts or enforce claims of American citizens or private institutions.
 In a seven hour speech Senator LaFollette charged that the big f. nancial interests of the country cen tered in two great war seat groups known as the Morgan and Standard Oil combinations were responsible fer the movement for a larger army and navy. Speaking on his amendmen1 the Wisconsin Senator declared he had been informed on good authority that General Carranza was negotiat
 ing agreements along those lines with Latin-American countries and later would ask the United States to enter into it.
 The proposed naval program he declared meant the inauguration of a policy to build a navy as great CT greater than Great Britains within the next ten years. But when we have done that then" he continued, when you build England and Ger many will build more. You will drive them to it and after you have spent your $315, 5,OOo,OOO you will iuso find yourselves in a new place to start. Your only limit then will be the limit of taxation on the Ameri- can people. Such a violation vic- lates all principles and precedents of the government"
 After adjournment tonight, Senator Swanson in charge of the bill said he knew of no other long attacks to be made against it and expected it's pas sage tomorrow. Following the vcta Senator Chamberlain will ask that the army appropriation bill will be taken up.

BULLISH REPORTS
 FORCE ADVANCES
Cotton Prices Rise Under Pres sure to 1 to ) Points Up--
 Conditions in Western Belt
 Improved by Rains.

New York, July 20,-So many bui- lish crop reports were received from sections of the belt east of the river today that the cotton market was forced to take note of them and a noticeable reduction in the volume of bear pressure resulted. Opening prices were unchanged to points lower, October declining to 12.87. which was the lowest level reached in some days, reflecting further selling pressure from Wall street sources. which, however, practically disap- peared in the late afternoon and was replaced by quite an active covering movement and some new buying that Igave the market very steady under tone with final prices 1 to 3 points net higher and about the top for the day.
 The disposition which has been shown of late to ignore the damage news, especially from South Atlantic states, lost some of it's confidence to- day, as the serious nature of private advices from many quarters created the impression that possibly bear sentiment of late has under estimated the amount of deterioration from re- cent floods.
 Texas news was better because If irains in central parts of the state and heavy precipitation in Oklahoma re- lieved the drouth situation there so traders quite generally agreed that conditions in the Western belt had been decidedly improved. The fore cast of somewhat cooler weather west |cf the river also offset the effects of the present high temperatures and the news regarding the tropical storm which today was still off the North Carolina coast, indicated there was little possibility of its doing any harm in the Carolinas.
 Cotton closed very steady.

FRENCH AND BRITISH
 ARE ADVANCING
British Make Advance in Del vile Wood and Longueyal- Paris Says 2.9OO Prisoners Captured Near Estrees.

London, July 20.-While a st.onp out unsuccessful German counter of fensive is still being fought out on the British front, the Teutonic armies find themselves again the object of a simultaneous attack on both eastern and western fronts. The recent sue cessful advance having brought the British into line with the French at Hardecourt, the French offensive. which has been for some time in pre- paration, has been renewed energeti cally on both sides of the Somme on q front of about five miles, thus fat successfully.
 Dispatches from the British and French headquarters tonight show further advance by both armies The British pushed forward their line about 1000 yards north of the Ba- zentin-Longueval sector, and are still lighting fiercely with the Germans in the outskirts of Longueval and in the Delville Wood.
 The French, having renewed their offensive, captured a considerable stretch of German trenches in the neighborhood of Estrees and in en- agreements on both sides of the r:ver have taken nearly 5000 additional prisoners.
 At the same time, according to Rome reports, the violent Russian of fensive has been resumed in the Car pathians, at Kovel, Nladimir-Vilyrski and in the Riga sector Unofficial dis patches from Petrograd say that the second stage of the battle for the possession of Kovel is continuing with extreme violence. Gen. Blussi- loff has brought up crushing forces from the Stokhod to the Lipa to at tack the Austro- Germans, and anX- iety as to their ability to withstand continuance of the pressure is begin ming to be reflected in the Berlin com. ments on the situation.
 How Long Can Lines Hold?
 Military critics here point out that Germany is now compelled to act on the defensive and speculate as to how soon Germany may be obliged to make retirements in an attempt to shorten her extensive but supposedly thinly held lines, especially on the eastern front.
 The official statement issued about midnight from British headquarters in France reads:
 "North of the Bezantin-Longueval line we advanced about 1000 yards, ir the face of stubborn opposition. Heavy fighting still continues in the northern outskirts of Longueval vil- lage and in Delville wood.
 "On the remainder of the main bat tie front there is no change.
 Yesterday our aeroplanes carried out successful bombing enterprises by day and night. Many tons of eX polsives were dropped with marked success on every center, enemy aero dromes and other important points. One hostile aeroplane was destroyed, several others were forced to the ground in a damaged condition.
 Since July Is four of our ma chimes have failed to return to our lines"
