Falling On, the Market Was
 Stronger and the Best Feature Was
 the General Character of the Buy
 Ing.
 NEW YORK, March 1s.-while the transactions at the Stock Exchange showed a further falling of to day the market was stronger. The declar- ation of the regular dividend by the Manhattan, the action Of the Western Union directors in recommending tho payment of the regular divi- dend on the stock, the favorable Missouri Pacific report for 1898. together with the purchase of about ten thousand shares of stock by London, all combined to bring about a better condition of affairs in the stock market. The improve ment in prices ranged from A to 1H per cent.
 Perhaps the bsst feature of the market was the general character of the buying. Of late the trading has been confined to one particular group of stocks; to-day, however, brokers had orders for all the leading issues The market received a little incentive late in the day from the Washington report alleging that Senator Cullom would endeavor to have the anti-pooling clause in the interstate law repealed. Railway men have been trying for long time to have this law modified and every president of any road of consequence has been writing about the erroneous provisions of the law and has been asking for relief for years past. Therefore the action of Congress in the matter will be watched with great interest by the street. The improvement was most pronounced in St. Paul, Northwest, St. Paul and Omaha. Big Four, Louisville and Nashville, Union Pacific, New York Central, Manhattan, Lead and the South western stocks were scarce in the loan crowd and nearly all the leading issues commanded a premipm for use.
 At the close the prices current were the best for the day and for . long time past. In the specialties Now York and New Haven rose points to 1s7 The net changes show gains of M to IA per cent.
 Railway and miscellaneous bond sales aggre- gated $1, ,554, ,00o The tone of the market was strong.

 Among the thousands of testimonials that come to the proprietors of Paine's eel cry compound every year, arc letters from grateful men and women in every station in life. Little did Dartmouth's great pro- lessor realize the greatness of his benefit to mankind when he first prescribed this remedy that makes people we'll, and in the spring months-March, April, Msy,-is ss much superior to all the ordinary tonics, nervines and sarsaparillss as the diamond is more brilliant than @ piece of glass.

 It is the true specific for dIseases arising from debilitsted nervous system and inn pure bloo1. It is positive cure for dys- pepsta, biliousness, liver complaint, neu- ralgis. rheumatism, all nervous diseases and kidney troubles. For the latter, Paine's celery compound has succeeded again and again where everything else has failed.

Arthur appointed him min ister to Portugal, and in 1884 he was pro- noted to be envoy extraordinary and min ister plenipotentisry to Austria Hungary, with 8 residence at Vienna.
 At the last New York State election MT. Francis was chosen one of the 15 delegates at-large to the constitutional convention which is to sit in Albany next summer, and his majority was the largest on the State ticket.

Superior Court - Civil Side - Judge
 Wheeler.
 In this court yesterday before Judge Wheeler and jury the suit of Caroline E. Dowd against Augustus Fl. Bartholomew, administrator of the estate of the late Henry L. Morse of Wallingford, was begun and will probably occupy several days.
 The plaintiff ia sister of the late Fl. L Morse and suss to recover $2,300 for ser vices rendered him as housekeeper from 1878 until 1880. Morse died in 1890, and Mrs. Bartholomew, as she received nothing from her brother by his will, made claim against the estate for the sum mentioned above. The commissioners refused to honor the claim, whereupon suit was brought by Mrs. Dowd against the admin istrator of the estate, Augustus H. Bar tholomew of Wallingford. The case has been in the court for a long time, and . few weeks ago it was assigned for trial, but, owing to talk of compromise, went over again. The compromise effort failed ant claims that all the indebtedness of the estate of H. L. Morse has been paid to the plaintiff. They further claim that H. l.. Morse never entered into any contract with Mrs. Dowd to pay her three dollars a week for keeping house for him in consideration of his giving her 8 home for herself and family and decent support. AllinR, Webb & Morehouse appeared for the de- fsndant, and Fl G. Newton and P. P. Wells for the plaintiff. The trial will be re- stunned this morning.

 Earlier in the day in the case of Emory A.

Smith was arrested and fined in the Meri- den city court $10 for negleeting to have the enow cleared from the walk in front of the company's building. He appealed and Attorney Fay, who represented him, filed demurrer setting forth that the offence charged was not contrary to any ordinance of the city of Meriden.

PAIN

When an article has been sold for g years and its sales have increased each year, in spite of competition and cheap limitations, it MUST have supe- rior quality and absolute uni. formity and purity. Dobbins' Electric Soap has been con- stantly made and sold since 1869, more each year. Can the sale of an inferior article constantly increase for g years ? This soap is today, as ever, the best, the purest, fam lily soap made. It contains NO adulteration of any kind, and is intrinsically the cheapest soap made, because it will go so far, and do such perfec. work. Ask your grocer for it n0N'T to read carefully the d1reo-

The DISCUSSION

OF the Waterworks Question Continued
at a Meeting Held Monday Evening.
Another adjourned meeting was held in
the opera house, Monday evening, to hear
the joint discussion Of the waterworks
question. 1t was quite largely attended
and much interest manifested. Mayor
Couch called the meeting to order and in
trOduced Mr.. Strong, practical civil en-
gineer who had made a personal inspec-
tiOn Of the proposed sites for the res0r-
voir, Monday afternoon, and he gave it as
his opinion that there was no doubt at all
but there could be plenty of water, and
good for all purposes, secured, and at
very reasonable outlay Of money.
E. S. Trip was the next speaker. He
opposed the plan Of bonding the town for
anything, as he did not think it a good
plan to leave a debt for our children to
pay.
7. r. Herrick was the next speaker. He
said that he was a member Of the village
council, and that within the past year
petitions had been presented to the coun-
Gil asking them to purchase fire engine,
as the present hand engine had served be-
yond its usefulness. Upon investigation
it was ascertained that a fire engine
would cost from $1,000 to $4,000. Then
new cisterns would have tObe built, addi-
tional hose purchased, in all causing
probable disbursement Of nearly half
the amount Of money asked for the con-
structiOn Of waterworks, and then we
would have inadequate protection. The
council looked over the situation and de-
cided that there was no other way out Of
it than to ask for an expression from the
electors upon the question of issuing
bonds for the construction of waterwOrks,
as it was merely carrying out the desire
of the petitioners to furnish better pro
lection against fire. Personally he was
heartily in favor of the plan and would
do all he could to have waterwOrks estab
lished. His speech met with long ani
hearty applause.
0. P. Chapman, +. +. Webster, s. K
Laundon, G. McDermOtt, j. s. Mallory
j. Fl. WOOley, 7. DOland and S. F. Blacl
all favored the plan of issuing bonds fo
waterwOrks. Messrs. Webster, LaundoI
and Chapman had been over the ground
Monday afternoon, with the civil engi
neer and had become satisfied that all TIN
good water wanted could be secured, an,
at a reasonable cost, and urged the elect
Ors to do their duty at the polls, as it wa
not question of whether we could af
| ford it, but it was whether we could affOr
to do without it, They were hearth
! cheered.
| Edward West was the nextspeaker. H
| thought it was bad policy to bond tn
town for that amount Of money.
| The meeting was a very harmOniou
one, and full, free expression of Opin
ions was indulged in, and nothing is no,
left to be done but to march up to tn
polls on Saturday and vote.
