FROM WATER FRONT
STEAMBOAT TWO STATES OFF
RAILWAY IX SHORT TIME.
HAS NEW COAT OF PAINT.
TtU H. M. C. SMITH TO BE HAILED
OIT FOR REPAIRS.
•be Will Succeed To* Juno, Which
is to Return to Carolina Waters
to Engage in Phosphate Rook
Dredging—Schooner Horace P.
Shares, Old Savannah Trader, iu
Trouble.
The steamboat Two States was
hauled off Willink’s Marine Railway
yesterday, after she had been painted
in unusually quick time. It was the
intention to finish the work in time for
the steamer to go out on her regular
schedule last night, which she did,
leaving her dock for Stoney Bluff short
ly after dark. This is the first time
the Two States has been painted since
*he went into commission, nearly two
years a ”o.
The boat departed with a good load
of miscellaneous freight. Her present
owners state they are well pleased
with the earnings of the boat, and
expect larger freights with the opening
of the spring shipping season. The
bulk of winter freight for up-river
points has already been handled.
The tug Juno will be hauled off
Rourke's Marine Railway to-day or
to-morrow. She will go to Carolina
waters to engage in phosphate rock
dredging. The Juno will be followed
on the railway by the tug H. M. C.
Smith, which will have her bottom
scraped and painted and repairs
made.
Capt. Pederson, master of the Nor
wegian steamship Ulriken, was a lit
tle nervous at Philadelphia the other
day w’hen his vessel cleared the Cus
tom House, because part of his cargo
consisted of 100 tons of dynamite, con
signed to the silver miners of Mexico.
In addition to the explosive, the Ulri
ken will take out 2,130 tons of bitu
minous coal for Tampico. The ex
plosive W’ill be carried from Tampico
by the railroads as far as possible,
thence on the backs of mules to the
camps of the treasure-seekers.
The big schooner Horace P. Shares,
Capt. Torrey, bound from Fernafidtna
for New York with a cargo 6f lumber,
put into Norfolk Wednesday leaking
badly and in a dilapidated condition.
The Shares met a terrific gale at sea
and was buffeted about the ocean for
three days. Oil was poured on the wa
ter, but this had no effect, and for
twelve hours the schooner’s crew
thought she would founder. After the
hardest kind of work at the vessel’s
pumps the crew finally sailed into
Hampton Roads.
As is usually the case at this period
of the year little disposition is shown
to charter sail tonnage for the sev
eral foreign trades. There is certainly
a pause in operations for the time, but
as rates generally are low, no effort
is being made to force business. Coast
ing lumber rates are generally regard
ed as firm, with tonnage rather scarce.
Coal tonnage is offered more freely,
with Indications of an easier market.
A large fleet is at present under en
gagement, but supplies at shipping
points are yet rather difficult to obtain
owing to the heavy demands on the
companies from all quarters. Steam
freights are dull, though there appears
a fairly steady feeling as to rates.
Grain orders are scarce owing to the
limited receipts at seaboard points,
but as tonnage is not excessive own
ers are not disposed to force matters,
quoting prompt boats to Cork for or
ders 2s 4%d and to picked ports Is
9d@ls 10%d. Gulf grain and general
cargo rates are without .aotable
change. There is little doing in cot
ton, timber or miscellaneous tonnage,—

A heavy surf is breaking over the
lumber laden schooner Harry Pres
cott, which went ashore on Saturday
on the New Jersey coast, off Little
Bea<ch Station, while on her way from
Brunswick to New York. The vessel
is now full of water, and unless she
is soon, will be a total loss.

THE RICE MARKET.
■•While holiday attractions have
somewhat interfered with the move
ment among the trade in general, yet
transactions for the week foot up a
goodly total; more than usual at this
season of the year. Prices are well
sustained and to secure attractive par
cels, full figures ar paid.
Advices from the South are of for
mer tenor. On the Atlantic coast a
good demand prevails and with lit
tle or no pressure to sell, prices are
steady with hardening tone. At New
Orleans, market continues strong with
fair demand; transactions are restrict
ed on account of limited offerings.
Southwest Louisiana and Texas re
port fair inquiry for the cleaned ar
ticle, and the highest prices for the
season obtained for fancy heads.
Rough rice of tine quality is in request
for seeding purposes, as well as for
milling.
Cables and correspondence from
abroad note increased inquiry, with
fractional advances on good to prime
sorts.

MORE OF MONROE DOCTRINE.
The Great l nsettled World Question
of the Twentieth Century.
Editor Morning News; Monroe doc
trine is not a settled question. Europe
is not content to leave it the way this
country wants it. and this country is
not content to abandon it. There are
probably going to be some stirring
times before one side or the other backs
down. And it will be the other. Ameri
cans think that. European nations ought
not to meddle in the affairs of this
continent. The people who settled
America came over here to get away
from them and their kings and queens
and emperors, and we, their descend
ants, do not want their Interfering over
here now.
The Europeans think that the Mon
roe doctrine is a piece of insolence on
the part of America, and are deter
mined, either to make us back down,
or to dodge it by what they call their
superior diplomacy. They are trying
the diplomacy game now. When Un
cle Sam wakes up he is going to rub
his eyes just long enough to see what
they are after, and then their is going
to be “something doing.”
A short time ago this country, led
by a Southern Senator, concluded to
build a canal across the American
isthmus. England shoves herself in,
and tells us that we have first to ask
her permission. And McKinley and
Hay asked it. That is what makes a
real American feel bad.
That is the Republican idea of main
taining the Monroe doctrine. One
would think that the Republican party
had its main office in London. They
should get King Edward Vll’s gracious
permission now to increase our navy.
Let it be noted that all of this trouble
is stirred up alongside of this same
canal; that it is instigated by Eng
land, who opposed the canal, and back
ed by Germany, whose greatest states
man, Bismarck, said that the Monroe
doctrine was a piece of impudence.
Let it be noted that the English flag
is still flying at Port Caballo, which
England bombarded as she did Alex
andria, and the English and Germans
are still blockading and capturing
prizes, and are still engineering in
open day, the revolution behind th
existing Venezuelan government, and
up to the present moment, their whole
attitude towards arbitration has been
a farce on the face of it.
Let the Democrats take note also
that the entire South American ques
tion was quiet and at rest, until Roose
velt at a dinner party stirs up this
whole mess by the announcement of
his interpretation of the Monroe doc
trine.
Is Roosevelt greater than Monroe
and all the intervening Presidents put
together, that when they invite Europe
to keep out, he can turn around and
invite them to come in? His announce
ment of his interpretation of the Mon
roe doctrine was tantamount to an
open invitation for all the Powers of
Europe to come over and camp out in
South America, and make it their
theater of war for the twentieth cen
tury.
They have come. How could they
have been so impolite as to stay away?
They were away. Had no thought of
coming. When they received Roose
velt's invitation probably, as the say
ing is, "You could have knocked them
over with a feather," they were so sur
prised. But they have come. Here they
are. And they are simultaneously
blockading and arbitrating, and having
war and peace, and the whole old
Egyptian and East Indian and Chinese
game over again right under our
noses and under the very cloak of
the Monroe doctrine as Interpreted by
the great, only apd inimitable Roose
velt. That is bad. But ye shades
of Monroe, John Quincy Adams and
U. S. Grant! He tells us that that i
what the Monroe doctrine was intended
for.
Theodore, where do you expect to go
when you die?
The whole matter, moreover, includ
ing the Monroe doctrine has been re
ferred to an European tribunal. It is
idle to deny that this whole question
involves the Monroe doctrine.
One would think that we were all
colored people, and that Roosevelt was
our Booker T. Washington, that he can
tell us right and wrong like this. He
seepis to have ail the Democrats as
well as all the Republicans following
him.
Our Democratic party leaders seem
of late to be like a lAt of small boys
at a circus, with Roosevelt in the ring
as trick rider. The only signs of life
they give is to applaud Roosevelt.
Some of them will be dining with him
and Booker T. at the White House
yet. They don’t seem to have a word
to say for or against anybody or any
thing. Even Cleveland, in a recent in
terview, probably brought out by
Musey’s January article, leaves Olney,
the brightest of the Democrats, com
pletely “In the lurch.” He indirectly
praises Roosevelt as much as Olney,
and practically said nothing when he
pretended to, and ought to have said
a great deal.
Suppose Roosevelt had had the nerve
to arbitrate the Venezuelan question.
The logical outcome would have been
the guarantee by the United States of
the Venezuelan debts, and the seizure
by the United States of the Venezuelan
custom houses to pay the indemnity.
Ultimately the policing of much of
South America by the United States
army and navy—and the loss of the
second term by Roosevelt. Now that
the matter has been referred to an
European tribunal, what is the logical
outcome? An irksome decision, with
continuous subsequent repetitions of
the same acts by the aggressive Euro
pean Powers— England and Germany
—until we become involved in a war
with them. t . . ..
It requires no great imagination,
then to see Russia making a grab for
India and Constantinople, and France
seizing the opportunity to make a
strike for her lost provinces, Alsace
and Loraine.
When the smoke of battle shall have
cleared away maybe the oppressor of
the Armenians will be no more, and
maybe there will be a few Incidental
changes of the map over here towards
the North. But we will have to keep
those children in South America
straight all the same, Just as if Roose
velt had done the arbitrating now.
When Roosevelt declined to arbitrate
he lost his nerve, and let go the horns
of the bull. He missed the greatest
opportunity of his life. An opportunity
which, rightly handled, would have
ESTABLISHED 1872.
