The stock market to-day showed distinct
Improvement in both temper and activity. IL
broadened perceptibly, although dealings still
retained their almost purely professional
character. and its animation was still confined
to few OF the leading shares to that extent
remaining narrow. There was, however, I'M
doubted support in many stocks from inside
sources. among which may be mentioned Gould
stocks and st. Paul. The high prices attained
by a few Of the specialties brought out some
long stock, and reaIizarions for profits in those
shares encourages the selling Of other stocks

CHICAGO. Feb. S5.-The continued reports OF
damage e. the French wheat crop and cold
weather were influences under which Nav
wheat in Chicago closed Isc higher than on the
day before. Most OF the early selling was
against calls. the opening price having been
very close TO the price az which most of these
privileges have been sold On several advances
which took place the buyers who had wheat
bought at below 97c, sold it cut. and the present
position of the market appear to be that the
parties to each side of the deal have made their
bets aud are unwilling 20 increase their amount
further than in scalping ventures, which are
not allowed TO run beyond A0iSe profit or loss
Corn was in the hands OF a small clique OF
bulliShly-inclned traders who advanced the
price for May to-66hHc, but the closing figures
were b,5Sc or ssc higher than it closed yester-
day. There was not much excitement in the
pit. There was one transaction ia the course of
the day at 669sc, which is $50 higher than any
previously recorded sale of Nav corn on the
present crop. The squeeze was stln on In the
oats dealing. The advaace to-day amount d
TO Nc and il established the highest price of
the season, 4s94c for the May future. The
receivers who have been selling against the
stock In the farmers hands are responsible for
the bulge. They are the shorts, and in their
attempt Co cover were assisted by the scalping
crowd in forcing price upward. The rnanpul&-
tors of the rye deal forced the price TO 26DSc
above that Of yesterday. The provisions 6usi-
ness was rather dub There was less buying on
orders from outsiders. and sellers at the same
time were not pressing with their offerings

Sirs: would like TO add my testimony TO the
almost miraculous effect OF r. P. p. in the case
Of Mary Ingraham, a woman living on my place

unable TO get out OF bed unalded. Being given
up by physicians, she had taken the ruinous so.
called blood medicines without the least effect.
until being put under the P. r. p she immedi.
ately began TO improve. and is now in as good
health az ever in her life You can refer 10 me
at any time as TO the effect OF r p P. In the
foregoing case. Yours truly,

YHMa's New Railroad.

The building of the San Diego, San Quentin & Yuma railroad is an assured fact, and anyone who knows anything, knows that it will not stop at Yuma, but will build on up the river to Phoenix.
 The land from Yuma to Phoenix, on the north side of the river, is quite level too, and the San Diego road will have a much better route this way than the Southern Pacific has on the south side of the river. Not only will it have a better route to build over, but it will open up one of the greatest farming coun- tries in the territory. There are thousands of acres of fine fruit land between here and Yuma, be- ing redeemed by the building of canals, that will only be used for raising alfalfa and stock until there is railroad built through on this side. Now is the time to build and the San Diego, San Quentin & Yuma people recognize this fact, and will build the road. There is greater future dawning on Arizona than the average man who does not search for the facts in the case has an idea Of We are just coming into notice and our true worth is being realized.-I Phoenix Gazette.

The fact that railroad is to be built across the magnificent country which extends for more than 100 miles to the southwest of Yuma, where for the whole dis tance there are but 8 very few set tiers, is bringing that section into prominence. It does not matter particularly on which side of the boundary line this land is situ- ated, it is the same to our F'1ta1y ef the west" All of that vast valley lying east of the main range of mountains, is our back country and it's trade must, and will come to Yuma. Those who have never been and examined that great sec ton, rich in a hundred varieties of soil, each of which is good, cannot believe the truth concerning it. A year or so more will open the eyes of many in regard to this great area of beautiful valley land, which lies adjacent to, and forms a part of Yuma's back country.

The Colorado River.

It is estimated that the Colorado river drains 241,695 square miles, or about 154,S57,6O acres. Its altitude at the junction of the Grand and Green rivers, which form the Colorad is 3,660 feet above sea level. At Black Canon it is 800 feet, and at Yuma 128. According to the Southern Pacific railroad survey the top of the rail on the bridge is 136 feet above the level of the sea. High tide at the mouth of the river is 35 feet, and this affects the current and height of the water in the river. for 120 miles from it's mouth. This is only at storm, or the highest tides of the year.
 The average current of the river at low water is about four miles per hour. At high water 10 to 15 miles.
 At low water, in March, 1876, the flow at Yuma was found to be 7,658 cubic feet per second. In May and Juno it was estimated to be double. As one cubic foot of water will irrigate 200 acres, it is found that at the lowest stage of the Colorado, it can irrigate 1,531,- 600 acres of land, and at it's usual height in May, June, July and it will supply water enough for from three to four mil lion acres of land, and even then, leave a channel filled with water for navigation.
