Business Men Inclined to the Belief That
the Worst is Over.
Business the past week afforded encour-
aging indications of improvement. The
volume of transactions was larger than for
the previous week, and prices were steadler
for all staple commodities. The specula-
tive markets were moderately active, but in
several lines prices were not maintained.
This was especially true of petroleum,
which closed weak and 1sk cents lower than
the opening Monday morning. In local
stocks the features of the week were ad-
vances in Westinghouse Electric and Switch
and Signal, and depression in gas ana traction
shares.
There was greater activity at the banks. Iron
manufacturers reported more inquiry and
decidedly better feeling. Real estate of all
kinds was in active demand and values we're
fully maintained. In short trade in all branches
was of satisfactory proportions for the season,
with good prospects of a steady enhancement.
1--WE have passed the worst was the general
sentiment of representative men.
The features of the stock market yesterday
were further advances in Electric and Switch
and Signal. the former selling up to 46x, and
the latter to 81. Recent decision favorably
affecting the former, and good business pros
poets of both make them desirable invest
ments, as is shown by the demand for them.
fractions and the gassers were the weak spots.
La Noria was unchanged. The demand for it
seems to have been fully supplied. There was
the usual clamor for bank stocks, but only one
small lot changed hands. Bids and offers

Along the Line. With
Panicky Feeling.


PanickY Feeling.
CHICAGo-A large business was transacted
in wheat to-day and weak and panicky feel
ing was developed. May wheat opened 1c
lower, held steady for while and recovered
Nc of the decline, then became weak and de-
clined SIC, or to point 333zc below yesterdays
closing improved some and closed easy and
about 33sc lower than yesterday. June also de-
clined SIC below yesterdays closing and closed
Sc lower. July declined 21sc below yesterdays
Closing and closed 13zc lower.
At tho opening there was fent made to
hold the market under fair buying by a prom
inent local trader, and the market even ad-
vanced some, but when it dropped back to the
support was wanting, that the peg around
81 0l15 for May had been removed, as it were,
and with free speculative offerings the market
broke badly all around, and great deal of
was no doubt assisted considerably by the re-
ported financial panic in Paris. Favorable
crop prospects here and improved conditions
IN California ON account OF rain also had a
weakening effect.
There was only moderate trade in corn, the
activity of the other markets Withdrawing
interest from the pit and fluctuations were con-
fined within &c range.
Oats were active excited and weak. Several
heavy lines were unloaded, one operator dis
posing of $4,000 bushels, Shorts bought heav--

As Philip Pennycomequick came next day to
the house of mourning-mourning, because
three dressmakers were engaged in making it
he saw that all the blinds were down. In the
hall he met Salome who was there, evidently
awaiting him. She looked ill and anxious, and
her eyes were bright with tever1sh luster.
She had not slept for two nights.
The extraordinary delicacy of ber complexion
gave her look as of the finest porcelain, a
transparency through which her doubling,
disturbed and eager spirit was visible. Her
pallor contrasted startlingly at this time with
the gorgeous tone of her luxuriant hair. Her
eyes were large, the irises distended as though
touched with belladonna, and Philip felt his
mistrust fall away from off him, as in some
fairy tale the armo of knight loosens itself,
drops, and leaves him embarrassed before an
enchantress. But the enchantment which dis
solved his panoply of suspicion was an innocent
one, it was the manifestation OF real suffering.
He could see that the girl was rendered almost
i'll by the mental distress caused by the loss of

to an early rise. A marked feature of the
weeks trade has been an improved demand
and better prices for heavy hogs, which have
dragged all season. For heavy weights prices
are l5@2Oc higher than week ago.
The run of hogs at Chicago this week has
been little more than one-half that of last
week. The light run is charged up to wretched
roads of the West. A fact stated by one of our
packers will illustrate the situation: AN Iowa

42 hogs, weighing 400 pounds each, was COM
PEELED to take eight wagon trips through the

HOW TO SAVE LIFE.

What is a cough2 1t is an irritation of the
throat and lungs. What causes it? Conges-
tion. Stop the congestion. the irritation ceases
and the cough is cured. But how to stop the
congestion! All, there is just where physicians
have always been puzzled. But it must be
checked, or pneumonia, quick consumption or
some terrible pulmonary disease will follow.
Some doctors give cod liver oil, others cough
syrups, but the most advanced prescribe stim-
ulants. Nature must be assisted. Pure whis-
key will do it. See what physicians say:
Prof. Austin Flint. of Bellevue New York;
College, says: 1.-The judIcious use of alcoholic
stimulants is one of the striking characteristics
of progress in the practice of medicine during
the last half century,"
Professor Henry A. Mott, of New York, says:
1.-THE purity of Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey las
simple analytical tests will readily convince
physician or an expert) should certainly recon-
mend it to the highest public favor"
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is certain cure
and preventive of congestion and should be
kept in every family. 1t is sold by all druggists
and dealers. Be sure and secure the genuine.

TROOPS ORDERED OUT.
Riotous italian Miners Are Causing Trouble
at BraidwOod. IIl.-Armed Mobs Are
Destroying Property and Forcing
the Men to Quit Work.

the Men to Quit Work.
BRAIDwooD, ILL, May 27.-In response
to an appeal by the Sheriff of Will county
for armed reinforcements, Governor Fifer
has authorized the Illinois National Guard
to protect property and persons endangered
by the riot at Braidwood. Adjutant Gen.
eral Vance ordered regiment Of men to
the Sherif's aid. About 500 strikers from
adjoining mining villages. armed with guns
and revolvers, marched in body to the J
shaft in this city at o'clock this afternoon.
About 15 employees who were present were
marched at the end of the strikers guns to
safe distance north of the shaft, and the
turbulent mob then proceeded to fill the
shaft up with pit cars and debris and wreck
things generally.
After half hour of this work they left,
saying they would be back shortly and
burn the shaft. Serious times are expected.
Company B, of Joliet, belonging to the
Fourth Regiment Illinois National Guard,
have been ordered to Braidwood to disperse
the striking miners. A report just received
states that 400 strikers from Clark City and
nearly 1000 from Valley Creek are march
ing toward the Braidwood mines, armed
with clubs, revolvers, army muskets and
shotguns, and that many of the Italian
strikers are crazy with liquor and are deter
mined to stop the men who went to work in
the mines this forenoon.
Serious trouble is anticipated when Col
onel Bennett, commanding the Fourth
Regiment meets with the angry strikers.
