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,— Journal of Commerce. 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. Passengers by Steamships. Passengers for New York, by steam ship City of Birmingham, Jan. I—Miss C. Weston, Mrs. D. F.

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.

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. HENRY BFER. BERTRAND BEER, EDGAR H BRIGHT. h. & bTbeer, Cotton - Merchants, NEW ORLEANS.
