The market for provisions continues weak and
inactive throughout the country, which is due to
increased receipts and light demand. This con-
dition is general throughout the country, and is
caused by extreme and over-production at time
when prices were high, heavy and disastrous
reaction following. European markets were
well stocked before speculative influence began
to operate, the demand during the early months
of the year being over-stmulated by high prices
and scarcity a year ago. A reaction for the bet
ter is not imminent, to say the least, as a COM
parisOn with last year, together with the increas-
ing stocks at present, will show since March the
hog-packing in interior points has been 3,747,-
$50, against 3,569, zoo the same time last year,
or 1924 increase. When 1t is considered that
this is for the summer ms, the difference is
very considerable, the stocks on hand from the
winter packing being much in the way that
the product has swamped nearly all holders of it,
The export movement is largely in excess over
last year both for the year and for the week past
being for the week 1856 barrels of pork, against
2,745 same time last year; 9,344.751 hounds of
bacon and hams, against 3,777,6l9 last year;
6,0l9,4S1 pounds lard, against 8, 1897, 472 last
year. From Nov. l, 1882, TO Aug. 30 1873, the
eXp0Fts were, in pounds including pork, dry
salts and lard 625 lao. 81, against 58l ,l55 $50
an increase of nearly 1000, 900 pounds.
Comparative prices in Liverpool show a grad
ual, though steady, falling off, with no feature of
phenomenal corn crop has destroyed interest in
futures, and the business seems likely to get
down to good Old-faShiOned transactions, based
on actual demand and supply.

Senator Spann will shortly introduce a
bill, compelling hotel-keepers to provide a
tire-escape for every room. 1t is a timely
measure.
The Senate has eleven assistant doorkeep-
ers, which is four more than is provided bv
law. This is Democratic retrenchment and
economy.
The House yesterday laid on the table a
resolution calling for joint meeting of the
Senate and House on the 18th inst to
elect State Librarian and prison directors.
Ex-senator Grubbs, of Morgan county, was
visitor upon the floor of the Senate, and by
| special invitation, made q fer appropriate
remarks in memory of the late Senator Chap
man.
The fight for State Librarian seems to be
| between Mrs. Footer, of FIT Wayne, and
Miss Gales, of Martinsville. If a man is
elected, it will probably be Richard o. John
son, of this city
Senator Spann raised another breeze yes
terday, by the Introduction of resolution

Congress to vote against the bill for the relief
of Fitz John Porter. The Democrats made a
political fight OH it and it was laid on the
table by vote of % to IL.
In the original draft of the metropolitan
police bill there was a provision that each
officer should be able to read write and
speak the English language" As the bill
was introduced, the words Tread and write
were erased. otherwise many Democrats
would not be able to get positions.

Oh,MyBaCk!

That's a common express
sion and has a world of
meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occasioned by SO many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver COM
plant, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don't
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will SO quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
BROwN's IRON BITTERs, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and max
ing the blood pure and rich.
VIM P Marshall, Of Logans-
port, Indiana, writes: "Mywile
has for many years been trou-
bled from pain in her back
and general debility incident
to her sex. She has taken one
bottle of Browns Iron Bitters,
and l can truthfully say that
she has been so much benefited
that she pronounces it the
only remedy Of many medi-
cines she has tried"
Leading physicians and
clergymen use and recon-
mend Browns IRON BIT
TIERS. 1t has cured others
suffering as you are, and it
will cure you.
