HOME SECURITIES.
THE WEEK OPENS WITH STEADY
PRICES AND FAIR SALES.

Indications of a Permanent Upward Move
ment-Buyers Coming Out of Their
Holes-The Miners Take the Lead-No
Important Changes-Electric Revival.
The stock market had more life in it yes
terday than on any previous Monday for
month of Sundays The rally in railroad
shares noted on Saturday was probably the
inspiring cause.
and the event of the day was the sale OF
800 shares OF Hidalgo 1t did not bring
surprising price, but the fact of movement
so unexpected gave Zest to the proceedings
Several good jags of Luster changed hands,
showing that there are those who have an
abiding faith in its outcome. More than one
hole in the ground has proved Il bonanza.
Prices, as rule, were steady to strong.
Philadelphia Gas sold up trifle, and closed
ut the opening figure. The fractions were
inactive, but held their own. Luster and
Switch and Signal opened and finished the
same Insurance stocks were neglected.
Nothing was said about Electric, but as the
Edison Company will soon be in u position
to make a strong bid for the trade of this dis
trict the probabilities are that this class of
stocks will soon be a strong feature OH

crease in net stocks of $4,000 barrels, in
round numbers.
This had some effect, but not much. There
were orders for oil, and these easily over
came mere conditions. The market opened,
with sales. at 65A, broke gradually to 64zz,
rallied to 614. dropped TO 50, frmed up and
closed at 651 bid, with none on tap. These
were the first genuine fluctuations for many
months, and gave the pit an air of business TO
which it had long been n stranger.
Although trading was light compared with
the good old times" it was vast improve
ment over anything of recent date, and
an earnes in the opinion of many, OF
better things to come
As on Saturday, Oil City was the center OF
interest, and the bulk of the trading was
done there. Fluctuations were wide and
rapid and good deal of the stuff changed
hands. The close was strong all around.
As to whether the Improvement will hold,
the general opinion seems to be that it will.
There are those, however. who think the
premium will be replaced and the market
relapse into sta8natiOn. News was bearish,
but in spite of this the market practically
being clipped off, leaving clear gain since
the opening on saturday of 10 cents.

DULL AND STAGNANT.
CONSIDERABLE WEAKNESS EXHIB-
TIED AMONG LEADING SHARES.

The Feeling on the Street Was Rather
BuIlish-The Foreigners Were Sellers
of Their Favorites and This Added to
the Declines.
New YORK, Aug. l0.-The stock market to-
day was dull and stagnant again during
most Of the time, but exhibited considerable
weakness among the leading shares at the
opening and during the early trading. The
feeling on the street was rather more bull
ish, but the elimination of q large portion of
the short interest last week and the GER
tainty that little support of a positive char
acter would be forthcoming made the bears
aggressive once more, and considerable
short selling of Union Pacific, Louisville,
Chicago Gas, Burlington and st. Paul was
done. The foreigners were also sellers of
their favorites, and this added to the de-
clines of the morning. --.-
the Standard Oil combination was not in
terested in the opposition company affected
Chicago Gas adversely and while there was
no heavy selling of the stock it was entirely
without support and on a comparative light
business it declined nearly 2 per cent.
While the syndicate plan for taking care of
the floating debt of the Union Pacific has
met with some favor and relieved the fears
of many people in regard to the future of the
property, the very fact that such syndi-
cate was found necessary is used by the
bears against the stock and it reached a
displaying no recuperative power like the
other active stocks when the selling pressure
was revoked. There was nothing in the
news of the day to cause any movement in
prices, but the circulation of rumors in Lon
don affecting Union Pacific led to some for
eign selling of that stock.
Prices in the other active stocks were well
held, but the general list was very dull and
without feature from the opening to the
close. First prices were generally small
fractions lower than the finals of Saturday,
and the early selling pressure increased the
losses fractionally in the first half hour,
after which there was some recovery in all
but Union Pacific. The pressure on the
latter, however, settled away the rest of the
list slowly and later in the last hour, espect-
ally marked weakness was shown in Louis
vile, Cordage and sugar. The market
closed dull and heavy ut or near the lowest
prices, but with most stocks only slightly
changed from Saturdays prices.
Railroad bonds were quiet, and like the
general list in the share market listless and
with feature of interest. The list was fairly
steady throughout the day. The total sales
reached S64C00 without special activity.
Government bonds have been dull and
steady. State bonds have been dull but
steady.
The following table shows the prices of active
stocks on the New York Stock Exchange yesterday.

THE MAN WITHOUT A STOMACH

MAY exist as q museum freak, but most of US
recognize the stomach as necessary to life
and comfort. Most of us experience a little
trouble from this source occasionally, wrong
action of the stomach causing dy yspepsia, etc.,
and often the trouble extends, involving the
liver and bowels whence we find biliousness
and constipation. We find also that the
bowels and kidneys (nature's sewage system)
become clogged with effete matter, from
which comes impure blood, boils, blotches,
pimples scrofula, scrofulous swellings and
cancerous complaints. The Burdock Blood
Bitters taken at the beginning or al any later
stage, arrests the trouble, restores the dis
ordered organ to activity, thereby removing
every vestige of disease. B. B. B. is an absO-
lutely pure extract of roots and herbs, which
cannot injure even the most delicate consti-
tuition and as q cure for dyspepsia, bilious
ness, constipation. bad blood, ETC., succeeds

CUMMING AND HIS BRIDE.
They Visit Scotland and Settled Dow
Rather Unhappily.

Rather Unhappily.
LONDON, Aug. 10.-Since the day the
"Baron of Baccarat, Sir William Gordon
Cumming, was welded to Miss Garner, the
New York heiress, Londoners, who are out
side of the Prince of Wales set, have
taken an especial interest in the couple.
And it is amusing with what ingenuity
staten ents are dove-tailed and varied and
woven about them. Ten days ago an army
officer who had paid visit to his old COM
rades in the guards, said happier or more
generous couple did not exist on the earth
than the baronet and his young and beauti-
full wife. And his name, position and stand
ing in society were guarantee of his honor
and reliability.
To-day the picture is changed. A society
paper sent one of its correspondents to the
Highlands to take notes of the couple. Her
report is astounding. She believes Lady
Cumming is unhappy. She regards life ON
the Scotch estate as dull and boorish All
fhe beautiful bits of color in the newly
welded couples lives are omitted She
leaves out the daily intercourse between
Lady Cumming and the pretty lassies ofthe
North, and her interest in the church, their
studies, their homes.
Next Sir William is criticized. His tenn
per she believes to be violent, his general
manner taciturn. Scarcity of visitors has
tended to make him sour and crusty.
