TcE MOORE FAILURE
Tho Diamond Match Company Will Be the
Heaviest Loser


Heaviest Loser
CHICAGO, Aug 22-The Diamond
Match company and the New York Bis
cult company were both involved in the
failure of Moore Brothers. The state
ment is now made public that the Dia-
mond Match company purchased on a
margin of $50 a share $4,000 shares of
it's own capital stock. The New York
Biscuit company has purchased 5000
shares of its capital stock, which was
bought at prices ranging from 80 to par
The Diamond Match company will, it
Is said, seek to evade responsibility on
it's purchase of match stock, and will
deny liabilities larger than the $7OO, 900
it has used from it's surplus as mar
gins. If the present intentio nof the peo-
pie interested in the Diamond Match
company are carried out, that company
will lose absolutely 100000 as result
of the speculative deal in the stock car
ried on by the Moore Brothers. AS to
the New York Biscuit company, that
concern will fare much better as a re-
suit of its being tangled in the deal. 1t
now holds in it's treasury the $500, 900
worth Of stock counted at par value. The
price at which the stock was bought is
not known, but it is supposed to have
been at prices averaging more than
90, or puWard Of $270,000.

Associated Press Special Wire.


SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. pa.
Jacoby, president of the Los Angeles
board of trade and director Of the cham
ber Of commerce Of Los Angeles, is in
the city moving upon the officials of the
Southern Pacific railroad endeavoring
to secure some more favorable action
by them on the matter of rates for the
proposed steamship line between Los
Angeles and San Diego and Japan. Mr..
Asano, agent of the Japanese concern,
recently had an interview with C. F.
Smurr of the railroad company in this
city on this point, with the result that
Asano was not satisfied and he has gone
to Chicago to meet the president of the
Santa Fe railroad. The demand he
makes is for goods ehipped from the east
destined by the steamship company to
Japan.
Mr.. Asano is also delegated to buy
steamships in the United States for the
new line and Mr.. Jacoby says c. P. Hun
tington has signified his desire to have
Asano purchase steamships from ship
building company in which he,i inter-
ested. If the deal is closed with the
Santa Fe railroad this will throw Mr..
Asano upon the open market for his
ships, in which event Mr.. Jacoby thinks
they may be built in San Francisco.
Mr.. Jacoby says San Diego and Los
Angeles are working together to get this
steamship line.
Much" says Mr.. Jacoby. Twill depend
upon what Mexico will do. There are
negotiations now before the Mexican
government concerning rates or sub
sides on freight between Tehuantepec
and the coast, as it is expected that
much cotton will be taken from Mexico"

WHEN JENNY RODE TO MILL WITH NE

When Jenny rode to mill with me,
The daisies barred their bosoms,
The spring winds rumpled every tree
And stirred storm of blossoms.
The squirrels scalnpered from the hedge,
The cows were in the clover
The lilies trimmed the rivers edge
And dusky doves flew over.
The white road seemed to welcome us,
By shaken dewdrops dented,
The groves with song were tremulous,
By lonely violets scented.
The mad wind seemed to envy all
The curls beneath her bonnet,
And let the dew dashed blossoms fall
In twinkling showers on it,
How well the way old Milton knew
In all the springtime weather.
His back was broad enough for two,
And so-we rode together!
He loitered in the light and song,
He knew the spell that bound me,
And that the way was never long
While Jenny's arms We're round mel
Tho rose had then no cruel thorn
To mar the moments blisses,
The miller took his toll in corn,
Aud took mine in kisses.
But time has left us far apart,
Yet, though the years are many,
The dear old road runs round the heart
That frames the face of Jenny,
And would give the world to see
The daisies milk white bosoms
Where Jenny rode to mill with me
Amid storm of blossoms.

Ia line from the trite old verse we used
TO recite in our school days. 1t has a
forcible application to those small all
ments which we are apt to disregard until
they reach formidable proportions. A fit
of indigestion, "slight" attack of con-
stipation, it is assumed, will soon pass
off, but is very apt to get worse, and in
the meantime IS neglected until the all
ment becomes chronic, and then, if not
entirely eradicated, ls q constant annoy
ance and menace of worse consequences,
for diseases, recollect, beget one another.
How much wiser to resort to course of
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters at the outset
of the malady than to temporize with it
at the start, or treat it with violent rem
edies in its maturity. Be on time with
disease, or it may "floor" you. Mala-
rious, rheumatic and kidney complaints,
dyspepsia, constipation, biliousness and
nervousness are all disorders of rapid
growth, and should be shipped in the
bud" by timely resort to the Bitters.
