BANNER BUGlINes.

BANNER, May 10.
Cattle are thriving finely.
Corn planting about done.
Not many land seekers lately.
Grass and loco are both doing we'll.
Sheep owners are rustling around, fix.
ing for shearing.
Sunday school at Banner is getting
along finely, with good attendance.
We had frost on the night of May 10
It nipped beans and tomatoes and tender
garden plants in some localities.
Sowing millet and planting sorghum
still go on, and will for a month yet, as
the grangers are in earnest about raising
stock feed.
Everybody is talking of getting public
highways established before it gets more
difficult on account of private interests
acquired in the public domain. Now is
the time to have your roads on record
gentlemen. It may cost something after
awhile.
The general opinion is that if we should
have dry season we can stand it much
better than we could in former years, but
all are hopeful that we may have sufficient
of the early and late rains to make good
crops. At all events, there will be gen.
eral effort made this season to raise
crops.

most ones IN Kansas, it certainly shows
their loyalty and patriotism to remember

NEW YORK, May 23-There is no change in
quotations of government bonds, which have
been quiet. State bonds are strong, showing
in many cases an advance Of log per cent. in
quotations. There was a sale OF North Caro-
lima consols at 1101s. The railroad bond mar
ket has been quite active this afternoon, and
prices generally strong, although Erie Eds, in
which there has been strong business, are
barely steady. The stock market has been
dull but strong all day. Prices at the opening
were generally 1s@14 higher than they closed
yesterday, from which there was further
advance of small fractions, followed by a
slight reaction in which the early gains were
lost, and then very quiet market with strong
undertOne which developed no material
change until after l o'clock. A general
although somewhat vague idea was developed
in the afternoon, that rates east OF Chicago
were
TO BE RESTORED,
upon which the market advanced somewhat,
reaching the highest prices of the day shortly
after 2 o'clock. In the last hour there was a
moderate reaction, and closing prices are
generally "a to * per cent below the highest
figures, but "a to IS above the final quota
tons last evening. The dizziness in the mar
ket is indicated by the statement that the TO-
tai sales was 134, So, shares.The only stock that
showed any activity was Union Pacific, the deal
ings in which amounted to only "a, 500 shares. IN
no other case did transactions equal l4,OO0
shares The correspondence between Mr..
Gould and the officers of the trunk lines was
made public during the day, and it discloses
the fact that most of the companies were will
ing to restore rates. providing that they can
be satisfied that they will be maintained when
restored, and that other minor points shall be
conceded.
THE FINAL ANSWER
from the New York Central was, however,
not received before the closing of the stock
exchange. The total sales this week. have
been 1,O38,S00 shares, decrease of 37S,O00
shares from last week. Railway bonds con-
tinue comparatively active, especially when
the present condition of the stock market is
considered. The sales to-day were Sl,22l ,OO0,
u decrease from yesterday OF $685., O0O, but
the falling off was due principally to the re-
duced trading in Erie Eds New prices this
evening generally show only slight changes
from last prices quoted, but the market in
the afternoon was strong and the business TO-
day was very well distributed, showing good
investment demand. The total sales for the
week amounted to $9,961,0 900, an increase
over the last week of So, I'll, 900.
The total sales of stocks to-day were 134,-
1877 shares including Delaware, Lackawanna

CHICAGO, May Exchanges in the gen
eral business situation are few and far be-
tween. A steady movement of trade con-
tinues from week to week, with some
days better than others, and some
worse. There is much more talk
among business men not making
anything than not doing anything, although
an increase of values in transactions would
be acceptable. Idle money continues to ac-
cumulate in all great business centers, but
especially at New York. The enormous
bank reserve already piled up there will
again be swelled to-day by another million.
Here rates of interest are steady and there
is little disposition to run risks in the way
of investment. Good paper is in demand,
but no other kind is wanted. New York
exchange was quoted at 5O@6Oc premium,
with good outside demand. Currency
shipments to the country and receipts there
from were both light. Sterling exchange
was heavy, at S4.S71a@4.S 91a. Govern

NEW YORK, May 23.-At the stock ex-
change the market opened steadily at 40
Il higher. If any one ever saw two
horse team with big load stuck in the
mud. they can therein see vivid picture
of the stock market during the forenoon.
The two horses are Gould and White of
course and the team loaded down with a
lot of stocks which they cannot sell OF carry
along easily. The team usually makes a
big tug at the wheels every morning, but
they worked so hard yesterday afternoon
at the load, there was very little strength
left for fresh pull. The market opened
feebly and did not fuctnate more than $50
Il during the first half of the day. Some
times a half-hour would go by with
HARDLY A QUOTATION
on the list. Gould and White are moving
heaven and earth to bring about settle
ment Of trunk line difficulties, but it is said
that New York Central will never recog-
rize West Shore as an equal. Neither will
the PENNSYLVANIA road enter into any az
rangement unless it be a permanent one.
To show the perfect desperation of these
bull cliques, toward the noon hour, when
all was quiet and dull, Manhattan Consoli-
dated, which yesterday did not furnish a
single quotation, suddenly started out of
its dullness and shot UP full
point in few minutes, then as suddenly
stopped and quietly rested again. Gould
has full control Of this stock, as White has
of Lackawanna, and being determined to
show his power in some way. adopted this

Caught by am Octopus.

A diver who was trying to find pearls off
the Alaska coast, found none, but found
himself, all of sudden, in the grasp of an
ugly octopus with arms twenty-seyen feet
long. Such an experience is rare: but there
are thousands of people who are caught by
dyspepsia, which is quite as bad. An octo-
pus hates to let go. So. does dyspepsia.
Browns Iron Bitters settles dyspepsia and
makes it loose it's cruel grip. Mrs. Schmidt
and her daughter, of 1876 Conway street,
Baltimore. were both cured of dyspepsia by
the use of Browns Iron Bitters.
