Nearly youths presented themselves for ex- Ilir ,tion to till the eight vacancies in lfie service. The successful candidates rrP paid to have been the pick of n very j a rgf number who mad© high averages jn the . i\ il service examinations. Among • > juniors aboard the cutter Chase I.' J>ll m. Gabbett of Savannah. All the cadets are on board, and under re direction of Lieut. Daniels, the exec utive officer, have begun their lirst lor- SOII- 111 the life of a cadet. Arrayed in the white working suits, with cadet dir , |.£.iishing marks, (ho newcomers have been learning all parts of the rigging, how to reeve gear for making sail, tak ing in sail and sanding down light yards and rr;.: tr. At -ea the cadets will be taught naviga tion. seamanship and boat drills.

There will be no visit to foreign roun r!ti* year. The lateness of the start *lll curtail what promised to be a most f ing itinerary for the cadets. There * he a visit to ports nortli of the Own peake, with a majority of the time etween now and September spent ai e f i. Vessel property on the lakes has un dergone n considerable change in the last x months, says an exchange. To-day i>; is practically no buying and aejl g. Late last year and during January a ho.r had only to be reported on the n,,rket to bring out several prospective buyers. Tonnage offered for sale was snapped up without any dickering as to r’.e price. A large number of vessels (hat had been tied to their docks for months iih] y'nrs were fitted out and put into - Mice. Many boats were taken from boneyard berths In an effort to corner the Me ii a tea that were confidently expected this summer. Now these old .ships are finding it hard to get a charter. Some of them ore even back to their old occupation of tilling dock space For months before the opening of t nication there was a general belief that the man who placed his boats for th- season would be running his vessels the lowest rates of the summer. The story rcf.ds the other way now. Owners of bottoms chartered last fall and win ter arc making money. In fact, (hey are mrking so much money, and their pros perity affects the. iron market so much, that Rockefeller had to pull his boats out of the trade in an effort to boost tin viM rat © from 90 cents (o $1 back to the charier price of $1.25. The price has not vet reached ihis figure, and, of course. tV wild-tonnage owners are the losers. The man who chartered before the sea son opened is now counted the wise busi ness person; the prophet who held his brat* for fabulous wild rates is up in the r. <o to speak. A fleet of (wo score lumber hookers tied up at Milwaukee for ni .ny days. There was no call for them. This explains the present state of th lumber trade. It is listless; just a trifb le.-s dull than two weeks ago. Yesselmen generally figure on a good filing in the lake traffic when tonnage i* anging hands. Midsummer is never n hrsv season for vessel transfers. From present indications, however, the small amount of sales recorded leads to the belie, that the lake business is not as v'tal as wanted by many tnarine men. Forecast For Jnly of Sea.

Cotton strong nnd Higher—Stock* Firmer—\\ heat Fn*lcr. The col ton market, has been quite act ive, with frequent arid rapid changes, but for the most part with a strong upward tendency. The primary cause continues to be the natural squeeze arising from the world's short supply, aided by bullish manipulation. There is evidently h good deal of uneasiness over the situation in Liverpool, where daily sales have been large, although the stock of American cotton has been reduced to 300.000 bales, while there Is very little mor** to be had from thi* side of the o'.d crop, and no new cotton for ten weeks at least. The position is equally strained in this coun try, as stocks in New York and New Or leans are insufficient to meet the re quirements of July and August shorts. Crop reports show' general improvement toward the end of the week, which had a weakening effect on the new crop months on Saturday. The summer months*Y!osed about 45 points higher, July. 10.03 c, and August, 9.70 c. New crop months closed about 20 points higher. October. 8.54 c. The situation is hopelessly mixed. Sup plies are so limited thac possibilities of corners and manipulation would seem to be limited only by the extent of the un protected short interest. On the other hand poor trade, ample tto.*ks of goods, politics here and pandemonium in the Orient, unite in presenting apparently in superable difficulties in the way of a fur ther advance, or even of sustaining pres ent prices. Should crop reports continue to improve, a collapse in the fall and winter months seems inevitable, while the old crop positions may still be marked up until the outstanding short interest be forced to settle. But outsiders should be careful about buying, for just ns soon as the big fellows settle their trades, the bullish "tailors” will begin to get in trouble. The bureau report on Tuesday "will prob ably give a low average, especially as it wiil not take into account the improve ment subsequent to July 1. Stocks held up remarkably w*ell in the face of various depressing in fluences, particularly the foreign and domestic political situation With a few exceptions the list Is higher than a week ago, although an un expectedly unfavorable bank statement caused some weakness in a very dull mar ket on Sa*urday. Present conditions do not look cheerful, yet some stocks offer favorable opportunities for investment on weak spots. Wheat was variable, but ruled lower on rather less pessimistic crop reports. The market would probably be a go *1 sale were it not for the bewildering uncertain ty about how far Europe is going to be involved in the Chinese puzzle. Corn is somewhat higher, and provisions n trifle lower. Sentiment in provisions is bullish, nnd purchase* ;ire. recommended on depressions. Wm. T. Williams. ViNllile Supply of t'utton.

The Financial Outlook In Seen From Mull Street. New York, July 7.—Any serious military movements arc likely to affect this mar ket Indirectly. The European markets are not in a position o stand any pro longed drain upon their resources with out depressing securities; and, In event of large government loans, gold would he shipped from this side In increasing quantities. In view of our low bank re serves, the approach of crop requirement* and the fact that large amounts of American funds are already practically loaned in Europe, any further heavy de mands upon us would not be welcome. In any event, the Chinese crisis Is going to be a more important factor in the secur ity markets for some time to come. In matters affecting securities more di rectly than those Just referred to. affairs are not progressing unsatiffactoflly. The weather hus not been entirely favorable io the crops, and the serious damage to spring wheat in some sections Is con firmed; but other, sections arc having abundant crops, notably Kansas .and Southwestern states, so that con sidering fhe better price* which farm ers ure receiving the se.ason Us likely Io prove a prosperous one for the agricul tural classes. Wheat Is 3to I cents htgner than a year ago. and corn 7 to 8 • ent* higher. <'o:ton Is selling Immensely above the prices of a year ago an advance in that staple of nearly 59 pei cent, flus h continued prosperity for the farmer as sure* another good season for general bus iness In those sections.

Al ready there are indications th.it values are touching bottom; that es .soon as buy ers arc convinced ihai manufacturers have made all the concessions they ein afford a nw set ol orders w ill come in and imp n t renewed activity to business. There is ev er) reason to look forward to a large and healthy trade next fall nnd winter; the duration of which will probably be in pro portion to the moderation of buyers ami tie- reasonableness of sellers. Another period of excessively high price* Is not to be hoped for, because it would surely in vite a far more vigorous reaction than the one now passing. The adoption at the Kansas City con vention of the 16 to 1 silver plank, indicat ing the ratification of the entire Chicago pat form, is simply inflicting hari-kari upon the presidential nominee. The peo ple of this country are not going to vote from a feeling of desperation, as they ‘lid when they voted for the platform at the Jhpi presidential election. Wheat was then 54 cents a bushel—now it is 84 rents. <‘ofton was then 6V£ cents a pound—now it is 10 cents. These prices have made tlm people of tin* West and Houth pros perous and contented, therefore their frame of mini is vastly different than when foreclosure of their property stared them iu the face. Now that these people have had a taste of prosperity, they want it continued, nnd thut means that they want no violent change in governmental policy.
