 cal silver men in the next congress will
 not find their path as smooth as ex-
 pected.
 The rise in grain, cotton and pe-
 troleum also made many bulls, and
 the fact that the iron market is looking up was mot without it's influence. From abroad reports were received that the American stocks and bonds were in better favor and these statements were backed up by orders for European specialties, such as Louisville and Nashville, St. Paul, Denver preferred and the Northern Pacifics. Local com mission houses reported a better in- quiry from home operators, and in fact the market showed a broa dening ten dency.
 Prices advanced F to IFS for the railway list the grangers being esne ciallA prominent owing to the closing out of long outstanding shorts.

 The anthracites ruled strong. There was no meeting of the presidents to-day owing to the absence on account of illness of one of the Reading receivers.

over an Expected on-rash of water.

Over an Expected On-r Lsh of Water.
 Yesterdays Hartford Times says re- garding the floods up north: "The Con- necticut river gets the drainage of a great section of the White mountains and the mountains of Vermont and up- per Massachusetts. It will surely re- port at Hartford, in most unwelcome shape, the effects of all these contri- buttons. If the flood doesn't get big enough to sweep away the ramshackle old bridge, with it's trolley car tracks, the patrons of the cars will be glad. But to do that, the sweeping current would probably have to get as high as it did in 1S01-say about twenty-seven feet, eight inches. A bigger flood than that occurred in 1854, when the river at this point attained the unparalleled height of twenty-nine feet, ten inches. There were great floods away back in 16S9 and in 1642, but these are tradi- tional and were not measured"

White Primaries.

A number Of the extreme free sill
yer organs and leaders are clamors
ing for white primaries to select
delegates to the Democratic State
convention. Il is maintained that
in these primaries every white voter
in Louisiana shall be allowed to
participate. These same alleged
Democrats have issued an edict that
no Sound Money man shall be eligi~
BILE for a nomination for any Office
from governor down to constable.
Thus these anointed propose to open
the Democratic primaries to them
selves, to white Republicans and
Populists, while at the same time
they propose to ostracise and burn
into the hrows Of every Sound Money
Democrat the brand of inferiority, if
not Of infamy.
This band of r~ecreant Democrats
will not be permitted to carry ont
their scheme to throw the control Of
the Democratic party in the bands
of the Republicans and Popnlists on
a dicker which will turn over to
themselves a part Of the spoils to be
secured by 40 nnholy combination.
This extreme element OF the free
silverites is insignificant in numbers.
Niue.tentha of the free silver Demo-
cratic papers are against them, and
have roundly denounced their plan
of treason. The Shreveport Times.
is n oil the most pronounced free
silver papers in the Stale, but the
Times is o Democratic paper, and is
roundly denonncing the call for
white primaries through the instru-
mentality of which the Republicans
and Populists will be able to control
the Democratic convention.

Of the pass connecting the gulf with
