FOR DROCTH SUFFERERS.
The Senate Favors an %Appropria.
ton of $500 600.

Washington special Senator Pettigrew
is much Cratitied over his success in secur-
ing favorable action upon an amendment
to the sundry civil bill by which $500. 900 is
to be appropriated for the purchase Of seed
grain for the drouth stricken region Of the
northwest. The amendment has not yet
received the sanction of the House. and
it is probable that it will have some
difficulty in doing SO. There was a
similar proposition in behalf of
the food sufferers Of the Mississippi Val
ley a few years ago. and it was defeated
by the constitutionalists of the Bailey
stripe. Besides this the members of the
House Committee on Appropriations are
organized for a lively fight upon the
amendments inserted in the appropriation
bills in the Senate. BY far the most i'm
portant Of these are the clauses providing
for the payment of sugar bounties and the
French spoliation claims. lfthese items are
allowed TO go unchallenged the total ap-
Preparations by the Fitty-third Congress
will exceed a billion dollars by several
million. In their determination to keep
below the billion mark the House man
ayers will be likely to slice off every pos
sible item added by the Senate, aud the
drouth sufferers seed provision is th..e-
fore in danger.

MAY REACH 100 DEAD
MEAGER DETAILS OF A WRECK
IN MEXICO.
Five Cars Plunge Into a Canyon
All the Coaches We're Crowded

dustries are Making Slow Gains.
A Eriyhtful Wreck.

City of Mexico via Galveston special.
1t is now known that 200 people were XIII
ed and in iured in the terrible wreck on lie
Interoceanic Railroad. 1t is impossible as
yet to say how many Of this number are
dead. as the wreck has not yet been cleared
away and reports are very conflicting. ID
is feared. however, that over 100 are dead.
The train was an excursion. carrying
nearly 1.20o passengers. returning from tae
annual pilgrimage to Sacre Monte Shrine
Near Piedra Blance there is a sharp curve
and at this point, for sone reason not YET
definitely learned, five coaches jumped the
track and went down the side OF the
mountain. Three Of them were smashed
completely into kindling wood.
AS fast as possible the wounded were
brought to this city, president Diaz hav-
ing ordered the Military Hospital with IFS
staff to care for all survivors.
The inquiries in the city and among the
people indicate that there were no AmerI-
cans on the train, the passengers so FAR as
can be learned all being natives. Tie
train crew are Americans, and in Mexican
custom, such Of them as were not killed
will be arrested at once, the Mexican laws
concerning the responsibility of trainmen
for such affairs being most stringent.

FORGOT THE EMPRESS CAR.
Arizona Train Robbers Hold Up a
Train. but Get Nothing.

Tucson. Arizona. special: When the
w%estbound overland reached Stems Pass
two masked men appeared on the station
platform armed with s~iX-shoOters. One of
them got into the engine and covered the
fireman and engineer with gun and told
them 10 cut off the car neXt to the tender.
and as soon as this was done the engineer
was told to proceed. When they had gene
about three miles they stopped. The
bandits carried a sack full Of what appear
ed to be dynamite. This they placed be-
side the roadbed when the engine started.
and then they discovered that they had
left the express car behind. The bandits
INDUCED IN considerable strong talk and
then, mounting horses that were fastened
to a tree near by. they rode 10 the south.
The engine and car returned to the rest of
the train. The passengers were badly
frightened. Many crawled under their
seats and remained there until assured
that the danger was over.

TRADE STILL LAGS.
Industries Making Slow Gains
Where They Make Any.

New York special: X. G.. Dun d Co.'S
Weekly Review Of Trade viii say: No
gold goes out. though sterling exchange
has risen,close to the exporting po.nt, and
it does not yet appear that the syndicate
has made any effort to control the exchange
market. London has sold about 10000
shares of stock during the week. and the
market is distinctly lower for railroad
shares, though a shade stronger for trusts.
The stock market waits abjectly for Lon
don, and foreigners thus far show more
disposition to sell than to buy. With
drawals of gold by redemption OF legal
tenders has not ceased. but since the clos
ing of the syndicate have averaged about
$4,000 per day. Wheat is IL cents high
er, but clearly not because western re-
ceipts were a trif1e less than a year ago,
nor because exports from the Atlantic
coast are small. Such speculative activity
must be expected during every season. and
when prices are at the bottom such spasmS
can only mean an advance.
{ Nothing is seen to Justify any material
rise, as supplies in sight do not increase
more than they would naturally on ac-
count of bad weather. Corn is only a
shade higher, with western receipts much
smaller than last year. Cotton dropped a
week q to 1856 cents. The whole market
turns on the fact that Stocks Of American
cotton here and abroad are much larger
than ever. The industries make slow
gains where they make any.
Failures for the past week have been 80
in the United States. against SOL last wear,
and in Canada IS, against ~ last wear.

We have long known Mrs. Jas "
Todd. of Long Rapids. Alpena Countr
Mich. She has been a sad cripple. MANY
Of her friends know the story of her re.
covcry: for the benefit of those who do
not we publish it to-day.
Eight years ago she was taken with
nervous prostratiOn. and in a few months
with muscular and infiammatory rheuma.
tigm. 1t affected her heart, then hor
head. Her feet became so swollen she
could wear nothing on them: her hands
were drawn all out of shape. Her eyes
were swollen shut more than half the
time. her knee joints terribly swollen aud
for eighteen months she had to be held
up to be dressed. One limb became en-
tircly helpless. and the skin was so dry
and cracked that it would bleed. during
these eight years she had been treated
10y a score Of physicians, and has also
spent much time at Ann Arbor unter
best medical advice. All said her trouiN
was brought on by hard work and thai
medicine would not cure, and that rest
was the only thing which would ease her.
After going to live with her daughter
she became entirely helpless and could
not even raise her arms to cover herself
at night. The interesting part of the
story follows in her WI words:

Now, if | can say anything to induce

Mrs. Todd is very strong in her faith in
the curative powers of Pink Pills, and
says they have brought a poor, helpless
