PNEUMONIA.

Pneumonia is the scourge Of
old age. 1t sometimes advances
with tremendous strides and
the patient is past all hope be-
fore his friends discover that he
is i'll; but usually he is taken
down with what seems a slight
cold. He grows worse at once;
it settles on his chest; he com.
plains of a feeling of construction
and pain, a hard, dry cough sets
in and the patient finally sue
cumbs to the fatal malady. His
friends are told by way of con-
ISOLATION that at his advanced
age pneumonia is almost always
fatal. Now we assert that all
such cases can be cured by
Reid's German Cough and Kid
ney cure. There Is no neceS-
sity of any one giving up to
pneumonia. Even when it is
far advanced a cure is not only
possible but certain if the pa
tient has vitality enough left to
take the cure. Inasmuch as
the cure is stimulating the very
first dose produces a beneficial
effect and the patient is on the
road to recovery with the first
bottle.

BIG SUPPLY OF WHEAT.
Millions of Bushels for Export-Uhat
Dun's Review Saws,

New YORK, Aug 29.-The specula-
ton In breadStufs has broken down.
The failure of wheat to export at
more than about ST. 10 has administered
the corrective which this trade greatly
needed. The threatened withdrawal
Of the crop by the Farmers alliance
amounts to SO little that receipts were
IL, 4O0,O 900 bush Is for the last week re-
ported, against I 100000 for the cor
responding week last year, while re-
ceipts Of other grain slightly decreased
h. u. Dun q Co say in their review of
trade:
Money is moving rapidly to the in
terror, bus the treasury has b on
strengthening it's If, adding =, s0p. ..,
to its gold for the week, and also e..
ing in 100000 more treasury notes
than it has put out.
Crop prospects are in all respect,
exceedingly bright and the rep 5Ifs 81
injury by frost do not appear TO e1,c"t
any considerable proportion of the
crop. There is every reason to sup
pose that the yield of wheat will be
much larger than the 544, OOD. 900
bushels estimated by the agricultural
department, though yield no greater
would leave 20O,000,OOO bushels tor
export.
Hog products are somewhat stronger
in sympathy with corn, but oil Is
lower and also coffee. Cotton has ad.
vanced three sixteenths. 1t would lie
good thing for producers In all pro-
liability if a considerable part Of the
forthcoming crop should be cut off by
unfaVOrable weather

THE AMERICAN IDEA.
1t is Said to be Favored by The Pal
Authorities.

1t is Said to be Favored by The Papal
Authorities.
ROME, Sept. lit is asserted that
Premier Crispi will presently publish doc
uments to demonstrate that France de-
sired to have the pope leave Rome in 1889.
1t is learned at the Vatican that any such
statement is without foundation. The
pope did in 1889 form the intention of
leaving Rome. He entered in
to negotiations with the Prince
of Monaco, hut his conditions were such
that the pope could not accept them and
the plan fell through. But France had
nothing whatever to do with the matter.
The attitude of the Italian governme It
with reference to the next conclave and the
discussions Of the same question in Italian
papers continue to produce a deep and
lively impression in enlightened ecclesias-
teal circles. Leading cardinals are much
impressed with the passionate interest
manifested by Italian politicians in insist
ing on the necessity of having the con-
clave at Rome. The encyclical of Pope
Leo XIII to the Portuguese bishops excited
much remark in clerical and political Cir
cles. 1t is a fresh sign and a very
evident one that Pope Leo XIII accentuates
more and more the democratic tendency Of
the holy see and of the papacy IN accOr
dance with the type and in harmony with
the maxims and practices Of the Amer
lean church. The passage touching the
national council proves that the papacy
tends with increasing determined and
unvarying energy toward the concentration
of ecclesiastical policy in independent and
distinctive action by breaking definitely
with monarchial methods and by prepar-
ing for a gradual transition toward ;om
mon right perfect liberty, and independ-
ence OF the church with reference to the
state. Leo XIII returns again and again
in all his actions to this general idea.
Considerable interest is felt IN dlplo-
matte and ecclesiastical circles in the
approaching election of a general of the
Dominicans. This will take place some
time in September. At the vatican and
especially on the part of Pope Leo
it is earnestly desired that the choice may
fall upon foreigner and if possible a
Frenchman. Ever since the pope's Access
sion to power he has thrown his influence
in favor of placing foreigners at the head
of religious ORDERS. He has had
two reasons for this course.
He has desired to work in
an emphatic manner the international
character of Catholic institutions and pre-
pare the way gradually for foreign pope
and has also desired to give renewed vi
tality to religious orders in Italy, where
they are less we'll organized than in other
countries
