HOW TO LOCATE ALARMS.

Perhaps you would not think 50, but a
very large proportion of diseases in New
York comes from carelessness about catch
ing cold" says DIR. Syrus Edison. "It is
such a simple thing and so common that
very few people, unless 1t is case OF
pneumonia, pay any attention to cold.
New York Is one of the healthiest places
on the Atlantic Coast and yet there are q
great many cases Of eatarrh and con-
sumption which have their origin in this
neglect of the simplest precahtion OF
every day life. The most sensible advice
is, when you have one get rid of 1t rs soon
as possible. By all means do not neglect
it," Dr. Edison does not tell you how to
cure a cold but we will. Take Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. 1t will relieve the
lungs, aid expectoration, open the secre-
tions and soon effect a permanent cure,

were S5s, ,704,2S4, the expenses were
$40 363,746 and the net earnings were
sis, ,34O,5 This latter sum was Increased
to $23 ,s53, 739 by interest on investments,
&c, and after paying all charges and
dividends the sum of 1896, ,O99 was trans
ferred to the credit of profit and loss
account This, it will be remembered,
was in year when the railroads of the
United States lost $l5O,OOO,OOO in gross
earnings, when all matters commercial
were in great state of depression and
when the rates for carrying freight were
at an exceedingly low point.
But the Pennsylvania Railroad did
much more than pay its stockholders the
ordinary dividend. The sinking funds
were kept up, the high standard of equip
ment and roadbed was maintained at an
expense which exceeded the gross earn
ings of many railroad companies and the
sum Of s., 1856, ,271 was applied to extraor-
dinary renewals paid out of the net in
come and charged off There was also
charged Off the sum of S4,2l7,6 ,62O in the
adjustment of accounts for advances to
the United Companies of New Jersey for
construction and improvements in recent
years. This heroic measure would have
challenged attention at any time, but il
is especially noticeable at period when
railroads are outstanding their accounts
and struggling to make a good appear
ance. 1t is acts like this that give the
stockholders of the company, here and
abroad, confidence in Mr.. Roberts and
his lieutensnts. The amount to the credit
of profit and loss ia now S23, 1855, ,632, and it
will be remarked that notwithstanding
the depression in business the cash
amount carried to the credit of profit and
loss in 1894 was almost equal to that o.
1898.
Another striking fact is the enormou
income of the Pennsylvania RailroaC
from its Investments. 1t has a long lis

New York, Feb. S.-R. G. Dun & Co. s
weekly report tomorrow will say: A
whole week the confident expectation CT
the sale of bonds has kept back exports
of gold. Withdrawals from the treasury
amounted to about $2000,000, but were
mainly for domestic purposes. No bond
bill has passed or is likely to pass con-
gress, and in the two months just
past the treasury actually lost $67, ,000-
900 in gold, of which $40 100000 went
into circulation, and s26, 100000, besides
the product of the mines, went abroad
How to arrest this outgo in either d.
rection is a problem which another issue
of bonds may possibly solve.
1t is hoped that the negotiations with
foreign bankers may secure some i'm
provement, though it is clear that rates
of securities here will have the same ef-
feet as if the bonds We're placed in this
country, and they may not be accepted
by the new transactions. In other re-
spects the domestic money market Is
decidedly encouraging, with a fairly
hopeful increase in transactions of COM
mercial paper, though receipts of
money from the interior continues sur
prisingly large for the season. The con-
dition of industrials, If not materially
better, at least presents some points of
encouragement. No advance in the
prices of manufactured products indi-
Gates a better demand. On the con-
trary, iron and steel products have
slightly declined for the week and for
the month, and in comparison with
prices of October, 1890. are but 54.1 per
cent. against 14.S per cent Jan. 1.
The remarkably large decrease in
manufacturing failures deserves the
more attention because prices of manu-
factured products have so greatly de-
clined during the year, and the output
has been greatly reduced. Failures for
the past week have been PSI in the
United States, against 1856 last year and
5S in Canada against 60 last year.

Reading, Pa, Feb. S.-As a result Of
his sensational denunciation of Sun
day School Superintendent George Wat
son from the pulpit of the First Univer-
salist church last Sunday, Rev. G. w.
Raeburn has been removed from the
pastorate.
That seductive creature, "Trilby,"
was in a large measure responsible for
the quarrel that ended so disastrously
to the clergyman.
Several weeks ago, after the congre-
CATION had been divided into two fac
tions, the one adhering to Pastor Rae
burn and the other ito Mr.. Watson, the
vestry called upon the former for his
resignation, which was offered and ac-
cepted. Last Sunday, after his sermon.
Pastor Raeburn drew from beneath the
pulpit Bible a paper, which he read to
the startled congregation.
Superintendent Watson had procured
new books for the Sunday school Ii
brary, and among them was Du Maur-
ier's famous novel, "Trilby."
This enraged Rev. Raeburn, and he
denounced Superintendent Watson III

Il have found him to be a liar.
charge that the Sunday school is now in
the control of a ring, and that the
teachers library, which is accessible t.
the young people of the Sunday school,
contains novels which are of a licen-
tious character, notably the novel en-
titled "Trilby," the adventures of a
washerwoman, whom the author allows
to pose for an artist, not for the beauty
of her face or form, but of the lowest
and vilest stamp; who sells herself body
and SOUL and at last dies with the halo
of saint about her."
Rev. Raeburn said the missionary
money had been stolen not only once,
but frequently. Superintendent Watson
is a member of the vestry, which de-
cided to depose the pastor and close the
church.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Feb. Spending the
amount Of the new government loan
the stock market was stupid and neg
lected. When the official announce
rnent finally came business improved,
hut the activity was at the expense Of
valuds. 1t is not too much to say that
the street was disappointed. both as to
the amount Of the issue and the high
rate Of interest that the government
will have to pay. 1t should be stated,
however, that this is the opinion pre-
vailing among stock brokers. On the
other hand, bankers are inclined to
look on the matter more favorably and
claim that the deal just concluded by
the government with the banking syn
dicate practically means that the ad-
ministratlon has a call on the bankers
for all the gold it requires to keep up
the reserve to the hundred million
mark. Still the active traders ignored
this and were disposed to sell in the
late dealings. The loss in prices ranged
fcom u to per cent. London was q
seller of it's specalties and the promi-
nent local bear operators put out fresh
short lines in the Grangers. The storm,
it is expected, will play havoc with the
earnings this week. Total sales, 123,O00

Three Big Flour Mill Companies of the
Northwest Lowering Schedules.
By the United Press.
Chicago, Feb. S.-The three great flour
mill companies of the northwest are en-
broiled in a war of prices that promises
to bring the commodity down to figure
that, from the standpoint of the miller,
will be ruinous.
The Pillsbury-Washburn Flour Mill
company, limited, announces cut of Is
cents a barrel to meet reductions by its
competitors, the Washburn- Crosby COM
pany and the Northwestern Consoli-
dated Milling company.
The Washburn-Crosby people claim
the Pillsbury- -Washburn concern is en-
deavoring to force them into combl-
nation to maintain prices at a uniform
figure considerably higher than those
now quoted. They assert they will not
yield to the English syndicate that con-
trolls these mills and a cut of SO is ex-
pected before the week is out.
Reductions made in jobbing prices In
the last two weeks amount to 80 cents a
barrel. The trade Is further demoral-
lied by reduction of cents a hundred
in freight rates from Minneapolis to the
seaboard made this week.
