marine intelligence. nnl General News of Ships mid Shipping. flie Norwegian bark Marie Siedenbirrg, lf . Nicolaisson, arrived yesterday, fifty n days out from 'Bremen. She is in ballast, and will begin discharging promptly. As previously stated the Sie : burg was bought by local shipping men time ago. At that time the vessel u , flying the German flag in port at p r , men. After it was arranged for Capt. \ iaisson to bring her to this country, . was put under the Norwegian flag. v li she now flies. It is the intentipn t owners to put the vessel under the y ni . rican flag and run her in the coast v trade between this and Northern j„James Foley, the managing own* ,r out of town at present, and until . urns no steps will be taken to make iht* change. *••!in**•* Troubles* Off ll*;s 11 fort. i the stormy Nqrth .Carolina coast con >, < anoijher /report of the ill-fated jir.nier City of Jacksonville, ashore six pi south of Beaufort since Sept. 24. pjT to float th<> vessel have been the .•omirjent of the shipping world. \\ *i ll she first to her unenviable l, in the sands while bound from y, a York for Jacksonville the contract |,i : her again afloat was awarded to Atlantic Coast Wrecking Company. T contract price was $(1,000, but the „. .. was "dead sea fruit," and the corn ,,;n ■ finally gave up the job in disgust, n fr. r losing probably on it. They tried experiment of a young Philadelphia ,i rcer. based on the principle of pump water into the sand on which the nner rested. It signally failed. Wtyon wreckers tyould move the City of j, usonviile seaward, storms would inva^ , illy arise to carry her farther towards , v lend. In November a report was re , . , v . and that she was one-quarter of a mill- on the beach and would likely have ( abandoned. Th n the Merritt-Chapman Company un nY-riook the job. The last information was that ihe mud machine Chester had arrived cssist the dredge and that the City of Jacksonville had been moved seaward twice her length. The schooner Vanlear Black, Capt.

The cotton market was moderately oe tive, and prices were for the most part lower for the old crop positions. Despite the Inert asing strength of the statistical position, the demand was listless, and quotations fell off under pressure of liq uidating sab's. May closed 22 points low er. at 9.19 c; August, 16 points lower, at 9.06 c, and September, 6 poinis lower, tt 8.36 c. Later months show little or no decline. October, B.llc. The relative firm ness of the new crop deliveries was caused hv backwardness of preparations for the „;. w ( . r<)l ,. nearly all sections reporting work very much behind hand, owir.-g to rains and wet ground. Some places re port that preparations are as much as a month late. ~ The movement continues to fpll oft, the amount coming Into sight fpr the week, being 100,(100 bales, against 156,000 last vear Receipts at interior towns 33.000. against 76.000.

These statistics are bullish enough, and if reports from the country do not show earlv improvement, there is apt to be a revival of speculation In the near future. Block* were active and tlrm. Railroad slocks throughout the list show advances oil favorable reports of earnings, and easi er money conditions, home industrials were conspicuously active; People's Gas gaining some 9 points on rumors, after waYd denied, that the chief competing company had been absorbed. Federal Steel turned strong late, gaining 5 points. President Hnvemeyers pessimistic utter ances caused a sensationally sudden drop of some 10 or 12 points in Sugar, but the loss was equally suddenly reeovered. At the close the market looked decidedly strong, ‘and further advances seem prob. able. Provisions were very strong early, with some later reaction. Ma.v ribs closed 25 points higher, at 16 671/4.

Williams. BANKER CLEWS’ VIEWS. The Financial Outlook: a* Seen From Wall Street. New York, March 31.-*We have had a strong and satisfactory market for sever al days. Prices have rlWn very generally, one cf the best features being the breadth of the market; *> some temporary reac tions now need cause no surprise, for ear ly buyers are sure to take their profits. 1 his, however, does not mean that the present ’Upward movement is at an end; It Is altogether based upon too many sound reasons to prove nothing but a shjrt and temporary spurt. The present rise is based upon the excellent business conditions that prevail; upon the large earnings of the securities dealt in on the Stock Exchange; upon the passage of the r.ew currency bill, which establishes the gold standard and allows of a moderate expansion of the currency, and upon the scarcity of safe and profitable invest ments. Lately the rise in values has been stimulated by foreign buying. London has purchased quite 1 oy, and some of these .securities will be . .ipped to Euro-pe,while a considerable poi tion will be held here on speculative account; conditions favor ing that method of operation rather than their transfer to London. There is no doubt that considerable of this foreign buying is due to the passage of bur cur rency bill, which carried much more weight in foreign financial circles than over here where public opinion was bet ter understood. The inactivity in the Kaf fir market, which is likely to last until the Transvaal war is ended, is a further inducement for London operators to turn their attentien to this market. The present wonderful showing made by American railway and industrial cor porations only foreshadows the immense activity to come. The entire world is en tering upon an era of commercial pro gression and prosperity that will far sur pass all present records. National con quests will be made henceforth by the weapons of commerce rather than by those of war. The great increase in the gold product of the world is ihe moving power, and the faster it is brought up from the bowels of the earth the greater will be the Impetus of business ventures and developments. The future will be bril liant In inventions and discovetles and in the advancement of gigantic business en terprises without limit as to sphere. BOOK XOTICF.S.

"Net Results In Alaska," by Warren Cheney, is a sane summary' of chances and condi tions in the gold fields, with the conclu sion that gold mining is a cold-blooded business proposition. “The Indian Con gress,” by Wade Mountfortt, Is a pathetic picture of the last days of a dyfng regime. “Our Congressional President,” by' George Leland Hunter, is an article worth much consideration. The author places the pres idential office, as it were, under the x-ray. thus revealing the Inner workings of the Congress executive machine. Street & Smith, 238 William street, New Y'ork city. In sureness and variety of attraction, it would be hard to surpass McClure’d Magazine for April. The account of the Interior of China, especially with refer ence to its rich promises as a market for America, written by Mr. W. B. Parsons, chief engineer of the American China De velopment Company, from observations made on his own journey s, and Illustrated very fully from photographs taken by him; the account of Prof. Huxley's life in London between his twenty-sixth and thirtieth year, when he was having a ter rific struggle to maintain himself by pure ly scientific work, with its self-revealing passages from his unpublished corre spondence and Its n. w portrait of him; and the account of the Russian ship ”Er mack,” the marvelous new (oe-breaker that gives promise of being able to cut a passage for herself to the Pole—those are all, in 1 heir several ways, articles of the strongest Interest and the highest value. And Just .* much mny be said for Mr. Walter Wellman’s "An Arctic Day and Night”—a chapter from his own <x pciTencb In house building, housekeeping, and dally work and sport, Including some thrilling boar hunting, up near the North Pole. In addition ihe number offers a great variety of fiction, poetry and mis cellany. 141-155 Twenty-fifth street, New York city.

The wide field of the Universal Brother hood Path appeals to the general reader as well as to the student of philosophy, ethics, history and science. In the April issue appear several articles which will command widespread interest. There are still a number of people in the world who do not realize* the great work of H. P. Blavatsky, the founder of the The osophlcal movement, and the article on this remarkable woman by E. A. Nere shelmer, Tresident of the Theosophlcai Society, should do much to remove the misconceptions of such as have not been able to appreciate her work. In "The Perfect Man” Gertrude W. Van Pelt deals with the mystery of worshipping other* as perfect and the disenchantment that follows. This, the writer believes, is not mere childishness, but rather due to in nate desire for perfection. A unique and remarkable article by "Zoryan” Is "The Origin of Hypnotism in Its Wider Sense." It is a fascinating story of the early days of fabled Atiantis, in the Golden Age and Innocent childhood of humanity. The author traces the rise of selfishness and the desire for power, the enslaving of man by his passions and the conse quent enslaving of the weak by the strong. The writer has a wonderful power of description.

The bonnets were five deep lieforc a piddle on one of the walls, nnd people were craning necks .*nd straining eyes to see n painted missionary telling a slory to his confreres. The devotees of this can vas went Into raptures over the hross head nails in the chairs, and wen- disap pointed because they could not quite read the monogram on Ihe Bishop's ring. In the same gallery, a few months later, was a picture which was iik" nothing 'in the hcovens above, or the earth beneat.i, or the waters under the earth.' One could worship il. If one chose, without being amenable to the charge of idolatry. No one could solve this pictorial puzzle, and. excepting a conscientious critic or two, few made the attempt. For the flrsl pic ture a dialer paid the price of a brown stone house: for the second he would not have given a single hrlck. unless he could have been sure of placing It squarely id the middle of Ih-- canvas, w ith one throw. The first picture was Vlbert's realistic portrayal of the missionary’* story; th” second was one of Plzzuro's most repre sentative examples-*® perfect type of tile modern French school of advanced Im prerslonlfm Here, then, were the two extremes of art. with rabid realism at one end and insane Impressionism at Ihe other. The contrast drove me to a fot mulntlon of my views. Was there not a happy middle-ground of art. then? As suredly there was. and In Millet's 'Ang“- lus’ I found Its highest and fullest ex prciilon."
