SHE TELLS ALL. The Whole Truth About the Matter Comes Out.
All the Details Exactly as They
 Happened.
And More Remarkable Thing Never
 Was Known.

When a woman once makes up her mind to tell the whole truth about a matter, she does so with all her heart, and gives. without reservation or hesi- tation, all the facts just as they oc- cured. It is so with Mrs. c. E. Hud- son, who resides in Brunswick, Me-, from whose lips fell as interesting a story of extraordinary facts, as news paper writer ever gleaned for the read ing public
 "Last year was in such condition that I could not walk or use my hands at all. My husband was obliged to lead me from the bed to the table, and almost carry me, I was so bad off.
 'I was taken with the grippe in the form of muscular rheumatism. It took me in the right leg first, and the pain was awful. It was about two years ago that I was taken, and l suffered all the time up to last fall, when l be- gan the use of pr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy.
 'I had tried many other kinds of medicines, but steadily grew worse. Last fall I commenced with Nervura. My bones were growing out of shape, and could not so much as wiring out a handkerchief, or stir up mess of bread, or use my hands at all.
 'I took twelve bottles in all. After using the first five bottles l began to gain, and now call myself well.
 q am so grateful that have recom- mended it to many persons and shall continue to do so. It seems almost a miracle to my neighbors and myself, that from being, so terribly afflicted as was last fall, should be a well wo- man to-day, a space of only six months.

JUNK DEALERS IN TROUBLE.
F4TLED TO KEEP I RECORD OF
 THEIR SALES IND PURCHASES.

Bought Junk From Burglars and Thieves
 Sequel to the Recent Dwelling House Rurglaries-Liable to a Fine of Not Moro
 Than Fifty Dollars.
 Wolf Alderman, Perio Seitaro and Rosario scitaro, all dealers in junk, were arrested yesterday by Sergeant Dennehy and Officer c. J. Eagan and locked up, charged with violating the junk law. The arrests are the direct result of the arrest last. week of the gang of burglars who had been at work robbing dwelling houses of lead pipe, copper boilers. etc..
 It is claimed that articles stolen by the gang were bought by the dealers in junk and that no record of the purchase was kept by the dealers, as required by law. The police are of the opinion that several places In the city are practically nothing more nor less chan fences" where the thieves dis pose of their booty and owing to the fact that no records of purchases or sale are kept, 1t is extremely difficult to ascertain what becomes of the plum der and equally difficult to obtain any clue to the burglars and thieves.
 The law on this subject provides d penalty of not more than $50 and reads as follows: Any person who shall keep a shop for the purchase, sale or barter of junk, old metals, or second hand articles, or be a dealer therein, unless licensed therefor according to law, or after notice that his license has been revoked, or who being so licensed shall purchase or receive of any minor, by way of exchange, any of said arti- cles, knowing or having reason to be- lieye him to be a minor, or who shall fail to keep the books containing the entries as required by law, shall be fined not more than $50.
 Alderman and the two Scitaros' will be tried in the city court this morning and at the same time the cases against Frank Arnone, who was arrested some time ago on the charge of receiving stolen property will also probably be disposed of. Arnone, it is said, also some of the junk which was stolen by this gang of burglars.
 The burglars, Peter Curran, Frank | Jackson and Richard Emerson, have | been bound over to the April term of | the superior criminal court under bonds | of $500 each and are now in jail, having been unable to secure bonds. There | are four charges against each of the accused and the probability is that all will spend several years in state k prison.

Near the Close of the Day There Was
 Little Shading in Prices.

 Little Shading in Prices.
 New York, Feb. 27.--A firmer tone characterized the trading at the stock exchange until near the close of busi- ness, when there was little shading in prices, due to the advance in the posted rates of sterling exchange to SASS and $490 by one of the leading drawers. The continued strength of the exchanges is keeping operators cn the anxious seat and Is leading to rumors of gold exports, as the actual rates are up to the ship ping point. Nothing tangible has de- veloped as yet, and, according to good authorities, the bond syndicate will see to 1t that no shipments of the metal will be made.
 During the greater part of the day operators ignored the tirmness of ster- ling exchange and the stock market ruled strong. The strength of stocks is directly traceable to the efforts of some of the shorts to get back their contracts put out yesterday on the theory that bearish demonstration would induce llq- uidation Except in the cases of New York Central, which ran # to STE, and Northern Pacific preferred B to 1S, the market showed an improving tendency until quite late in the day. Fears of a heavy assessment account for the weak ness of the latter London sold the stock as well as Louisville and Nashville and New York Central.
 The improvement in the general mar ket was equal to 4@3% per cent, Jersey Central rising 3B to S6, Northwest % to S9, Lackawanna l to 154, Susquehannah and Western preferred 11s to SS, and the other active railway issues anywhere from E to Ss per cent. Near the close Baltimore and Ohio dropped 3A to 5S on rumors that the bituminous coal trade along the line of the road was in bad shape. Missouri Pacific first rose ss to 20M and then dropped to 184@1914. It Is proposed to fund the floating debt by the issue of 5 per cent. collateral notes.
 The industrial were more prominent. Tobacco jumped SA to 91@9O. It is re- ported that the large owners of the COfupdlly 5 SLOCk WILL meet III InlS Clty tomorrow and important developments are expected. Sugar was strengthened by purchases to cover snort contracts. Distillers ran up to HE. It is stated that the Heading interests in the prop erty have agreed to the new reorganiza- ton plan and the new bond issue has been underwritten. United States Leather preferred dropped S14 to 5S@ 59A. The common sold down 1% to TO A. Considerable disappointment was at the srnalIness of the divi- dend on the preferred. In the inactive stocks Consolidated Gas rose 2 to 134, Canadian Pacific 1H to 44A and Bay State Gas 2ss to 1873. Michigan Central | declined 2A to 92A.
 The market closed about steady, the 1 advance in the sterling exchange hay | ng led to some selling to realize prof | ts Net changes shoW advances of 4 | to per cent.
