A Panic on sChange-Brokers Throw. Ing Their Holdings on the Market at Constantly DecllR1mg Prfces-New York and New England Very Weak Twenty-Five Per Cent. Asked For Money-The Closing Rates the Low est or the Day.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 14. The market was feverish and unsettled this morn ing but the result of the forenoon's dealings was to leave prices higher at 12 o'clock than they closed last night. In nearly all cases, however, figures were A to per cent. below the prices of yester- day The special features of the forenoons trad ing were Reading, Jersey Central, Lake Shore and New York and New England. The first three named advanced to iss per cent, while New York and New England was very weak and declined 2B per cent. Aside from these the changes were only fractional. After 12 o'clock the market was weak again and most of the improvement of the morn ing was lost by o'clock. The sales to noon aggre- gated 156 900 shares The market was weak during the afternoon and at times semi panicky feeling prevailed. Prices declined on almost every trans. action and dealings were attended with much ex. citement. The selling was heavy and some large blocks were thrown on the market. Brokers vied with one another to market their holdi ngs and the scenes on the floor were beyond description. A perfect pandemonium prevailed and above the din could be heard the voices of the contending brokers offering their holdings at constantly declining figures. The closing prices were the lowest of the day and for the usually active list the decline rang ed from 5s to 15s. The weakness of the market was attributed to two causes, viz., the tightness of money and general liquidation. The sales for the day amounted to 517.S .S10 shares.
 Money closed stringent at 25 per cent, the high est rate. The lowest rate was per cent.
 Exchange closed weaker. Posted rates zso15 O ASA; actual rates 4.79N04so for 60 days.
 Governments closed steady.
 Closing prices reported over he private wires of BUNNELL & SCRANTON. Bankers and Brokers.

CHRISTIAN WORKERS.
Their Chicago Convent1on-Rev. M
 Collins of New Haven.

Their Chicago Convention-Rev. MT.
 Collins of New Haven.
 OXFORD, Dec. 14-For several months we have had in hand Proceedings of the First Convention of Christian Workers in the United States and America" These proceed ings are comprised in 8 plethoric pamphlet of 14S pages. One notices that Rev. John 0. Collins called the convention to order on the first day of it's seven sessions in Chicago last June.
 Mr. Collins opened his address: ''I live in the city of New Haven, Conn.,, a city of about 75, 900 inhabitants, including the sub urbs." He tells how he "numbered" the re ligiousness and irreligiousness of the city at cost of about $500, work which some thought would cost $1,s00. He found in the city %, 565 church members; 40, 593 per sons who attended church; that all the Roman Catholics, 17,91S, and all the Jews, 1 .045, attend church; that $50 children of Sunday school age are not connected with any Sun day school MT. Collins is credited with four interesting speeches during the sessions What he said at Chicago was so well said that one can but believe that what he does in New Haven in pursuance of his mission is we'll done. The Chicago Christian Workers convention pamphlet is replete with exceed ingly interesting reports and addresses. Such a man as the Rev. Collins and the seventy-five or more men and women who participated in the Chicago reporting and speaking are most serviceable in their re- spective cities and contribute largely to their christianization and thrift. Blessings crown the liberal whose gifts render such mission work as that by the Rev. Collins practicable.

Their only Medicine Chest.

DEERLoDGE, MONTANA, Dec 16, 1885.
 have been using Brandreth's Pills for the last thirteen years, and though have had nine children have never had doctor in the house except three times, when we had an epidemic of scarlet fever, which we soon banished by the vigorous use of Brandreth's Pills have used them for myself, two or three night for month, for liver com- plaint, dyspepsia and constipation. In diar- rhoea, cramps, wind colic, indigestion, one or two Brandreth's Pills fixed the children at once. A box of pills is the only medicine chest we require in the house. We use them for rheumatism, colds, catarrh, biliousness and impure blood. They never have failed to cure all the above complaints in very few days. WILLIAM 5. MILLER.

Heartiess Cruelty

it is to delude poor sufferer into the belief that some worthless liniment will cure rheu- matism and neuralgia. Honesty is the best policy in the manufacture of proprietary ar ticles as in all other matters, and the fact that the proprietors of Athlophoros have never claimed for it even all it's merit would warrant has not 8 little to do with it's won derful popularity, and the thousands of grateful testimonials received by them show that their policy has been wise as well as right
 Experience has amply demonstrated that
 mere outward applications are worthless.
 The disease has it's seat in the blood, and
 any remedy to be successful must deal with
 the obstructive acid which poisons and in- flames it.
 Athlophoros acts on the blood, muscles and joints directly. It takes the poison out
 of the blood and carries it out of the system; it invigorates the action of the muscles and es the liver and kidneys, cleansing them from irritating substances, and, if followed up after the rheumatic conditions cease, it will restore these organs to regularity and health.
 PENNINGTON, Conn. You ask if I am cured of rheumatism by the use Of Athlophoros. When I first tried badly swollen and I suffered 8 great deal of pain. Three doses began to take effect, and used two bottles when the pain left, the swelling and stiffness disappeared and has never returned. About a year later my shoulder troubled me; took one bottle and was cured of that and have not had rheuma- tisn since I recommended it's use to one or two neighbors who tried it and were re- lieved MRS. MARY s. HART. Every druggist should keep Athlophoros and Athlophoros Pills, but where they can not be bought of the druggist the Athlophor-

 When Elihu Yale founded that time hon. ored institution of learning, Yale College, he struck blow at ignorance that has rever- berated for more than two centuries through out the length and breadth of the land, and placed his name in the foremost rank of Americas public benefactors. But greater scourge than ignorance is now running rampant in our midst. Do you know what ails you when you have dull headache no appetite; nothing tastes good that you eat; specks pass before your eyes; low spirits; an irritable and peeyish temper; bowels con- stipated; an appearance of red or white brick dust in the urine; tired feeling and don't know what ails you? You have fallen a victim to that modern scourge, MdtG7'S0. Nothing on this earth will tone you up so quickly and arrest the progress of Malaria as Lewis Red Jacket Bitters, the only sure cure for Dumb Ague, Chills and Fever, and all forms of Malaria.

 In the Court of Common Pleas yesterday was finished up the case of Stoddard, Kim berly & Co., vs. Louis E. Ryder. It is a suit on claim of about $2OO. When Ryder failed recently he attempted to compromise for 20 cents on 8 dollar. This basis was &C., cepted by some of the creditors, but not by all One concern at least demanded and ob- tained more. When Messrs. Stoddard, Kim berly & Go. learned this they also demanded more money on their claim, as others had got it and are now seeking to set aside this settlement.
 Yesterday afternoon Judge Studley made his charge and the jury soon returned ver- dict for the defendant to recover costs. The trial of the case of Frazier vs. Catlin was taken up.
