The Wool Trade.

The American Wool and Cotton Re-
porter says today of the wool trade:
Ibe sales of the week i'm Boston, New
York and Philadelphia aggregate 6.243,
700 pounds, 3.9l1, 800 being domestic and
2.302, 400 foreign. Ii Is evident that the
election has been discounted by the large
sales of the previous week, and conse-
quentIy the market has been a dissp-
pointmept to many persons.
Speaking generally it may bs said that
sales during the last week nave been
largely at the same figures as prior to
November 3, with some transactions at
advanced quotations. Wool is held very
firmly ana dealers experience difficulty
in replacing stock sold. Boston and Sew
York report a moderate movement of for
eign wool, but Philadelphia sold consider
able filing stock; particularly China.
Less business Is reported in Australian
than a week ago. Aggregate sales in
the three principal markets since Jan. 1
amount To 202, l6o, 500 pounds; last year,
307, ,S5l, Asa pounds. Boston Is now about
the lowest market In the world. Prices
In the West are considerably in excess Of
those quoted here. An increasing ten

HIS ACCOUNTS CROOKED
Charge That Mr.. Barker Makes
Against Almy.
Says The Latter Has Been Collecting
Money and Retaining l..

Charles y. Aimy was arraigned In the
Sixth District Court this morning on the
charge Of embezzling s75 from 5. Z.
Baker. lie pleaded not guilty and was
held in the sum OF 500 for trial Friday.
Mr.. Barker was seen TO-DAY, and said
that Almy's stealing would run up into
the hundreds, and the methods adopted
by him must have been sucn as TO make
II necessary for him to keep a set OF
books. Almy, so Mr.. Barker says, has
been employed by him for three years,
and was his most trusted man. lie had
charge of soliciting and delivering orders
to the best customers In and about Elm
wood. His shortage can be traced as far
back ~ last June.
y As has been stated, Amy had the beet
customers. and was in no way interferred
with by Mr.. Barker. Last Monday Mr..
Barker asked Nr. Almy to collect GER
tain bill that had been running since last
May, and when Almy came TO the store
on his last trip In the evening. he re-
ported that the customer paid the bill,
and turned the cash over.
lhe next day Mr.. Barker was q little
short of money anc he called upon one
OF Almy's customers to pay his bill, but
the customer said he did not owe the
company q cent and at once showed re-
ceipts. This set MIR. Barker to thinking,
and he went over AImy's route and
according TO his abatement every enc of
his accounts but one was "crookcd."
Mr.. Baker called upon the man whom
Almy claimed had paid his bills the day
before, and Mr. Barker found that he
owed him nothing, and found that Almy
had collected bill from some other GUS
toner and paid the one in question.
Almy had leo or more customers and to
keep all o their accounts straight, must
have required some system OF bis own, 90
that he did not get them "mixed."
Almy is hut % years old and lives with
mis- parents at 33 Brigham street. go far
as known he has no bad hsbits.

Body of a Drowned Man
Recovered Today.
II Was Found Under the House
of the Three Ones.
Is Probably That. of Benjamin MOwry
OF North KingstOwn.

Al 10:45 this morning the body Of a
are station on Exchange place, anu was
removed to the morgue. Among effects
found on the BODY was a tax receipt from
the town of North Kingstown, dated
October q, 1895. There were also two
receipts for quarterly dres from Reno
Pest, G.A.K.. Of East Greenwich all m made
out TO Benjsmin Mowry.
An open-iaced silver watch and gold
chsin,an s5 bill were also found. i he
hand op the watch indicated that II had
stopped st 2:43 O'Clock.
The body was found by Mic hael Mooney,
who lives ut 1912 Orms street. Mr..
Mooney has several boats under the fire
station, ana when he went to get one of
them this morning, he discovered the
head ana shoulders OF a man between his
raft and the front foundation OF the
building and about 70 feet from the
Washington bridge. Yesterday morning
Mr. Mooney saw he body in about the
same position, but supposing that II was
au old bag did not pay any more attention
10 the matter. Seeing It again this MORN
ing, he proceeded TO examine IL, and was
somewhat alarmed TO discover the re-
maius of a man. MIR. Mooney pulled the
body from the wnter and placed IL on his
raft. He then notified the police, who
took Ii to the morgue at tue Centra sta
tion. The booy Is in an advanced stage
of decomposition and IL Is thought 1t has
been in the water at least two weeks.
There were no bruises OF any sort on the
body so far as could be seen. Ii Is quite
probable that the body fioated up the
say during the early part OF the week,
from the fact that there were extremely
high tides at that time. The body came
in contact with the raft IN such a man
ner that IL was held fast.
The North Kingstown authorities have
been notified.

hope that the Casino will prove sufii-
ciently attractive to keep the women
folks within its confines. This is the pur-
pose of the various suites of rooms on
the second floor. and they are arranged
so as to afford every luxury and con-
venience for the occupants.
One Of the notable features of the club
is fine dock running out into the Hud-
son. 1t Is for the use of the yachts or
the members. 1t cost $4,000 to build.
The men who go to town for few hours
each day can steam down the river in
their yachts and run back again in the
afternoon with great comfort. A hand
some railroad station has been built for
the convenience of the members who are
not fortunate enough to own yachts.
Great stables have also been built, capa-
BILE of housing 300 horses and all kinds
, of traps and rigs from the ponderous
four-in- hand coach to the light runabout
wagon.
Much care has been taken in laying
out the golf grounds, and 1t is now the
boast of the members that the links form
one of the largest nine-hole courses in
the world. Both the outgoing and In
coming teeing grounds are near the Ca
sino. In starting out the players drive
is southwark to the putting green, To-
hundred and thirty-three yards from
this is deep ravine a dozen yards wide.
a strip of turf 100 feet in width is next
and then comes a second ravine 80 feet
wide before the first hole is reached.
The difficulties in reaching the second
hole consist of deep glen, network
of logs and punches of trees. All the
rest of the holes are full of hazards,
such as sand piles, artificial bunkers,

a chimney of ornamental brick work.
The building is $50 feet long and the
same In width. 1t is roughly triangular
In shape, with two sides slanting from
the entrance on the river side. This
gives view up the river and another
down.
A covered piazza fifteen feet wide runs
entirely around the house on the first
floor. In front it widens out to twenty
five feet. This will be used a s an outside
dining room, being left open in summer
and inclosed with glass in winter. Above
1t an uncovered piazza extends around
the second story. In the basement, be-
large room for bicycles There is also
a swimming tank 14X22 feet, lined with
white glazed brick, and number of
showers and dressing rooms.
The main hall on the first floor is so
feet long and 20 feet wide. On the north
it opens on the piazza and into the din
ing room, which is nearly of the same
size. On the SOUTH corresponding in
position to the dining room. are the
card room and the billiard room. In the
front of the main hall. toward the river
is the club room, with many windows

like s.. 600, 900. 900. When all the plans OF
the Casino are carried out it will have
cost something like $1.000,000 mere
nothing for a playhouse for SO many
millionaires.
Ground was broken for the building
last August, and it was hoped to have 1t
in readiness for an official opening on
Christmas eve last. But the plans of
the club men were too elaborate for such
hasty work. and even now the grounds
are not complete. Three hundred work.
ingmen are employed on them all the
time and within a few weeks 1t is ex-
pected that the whole place will be in
tip-top shape.
THE CLUB HOUSE.
The Casino consists Of three stories
and basement. The basement Is the
ground floor on the river front, where
the building is really a story higher
than on the other side. The house is
of an EliZabethan style of architecture.
The lower part is built of brick and
stone interspersed, and the upper part is
of wood. The exterior is finished In
half timber. which consists of orna-
mental woodwork filled in with white
plaster the whole presenting plain
surface This effect begins with the sec
ond story. and in part is carried up to
the roof. Specimens of half timber work
are rare IN this country. but are plenti-
full in England, Germany and Brittany.
In other respects also the building is
of great picturesQueness 1t abounds in
gables and dormer windows, and above

desire to avail themselves of their serv-
ices This is the company. SO much talk
ed about in the east whose antidote for
the liquor habit Is a purely vegetable
composition, entirely harmless but won-
derfully efflcacious, which the patient
takesshome and uses. according to direc-
tions, as he would any other medicine.
In little while he is cured of all desire
for stimulants and finds himself gain
ing daily in health, strength. zest for
business, and the respect of all the peO-
pie who know him. He is new man.
and nobody but himself and the COM
pany from whom he obtained the cure
knows how it came about. 1t has cost
him $35 for the reformation, and he
wouldn't go back to what he was before
for $35. 900.
The basis Of the formula Of the Ma
tional Liquor Cure, as used at the pres
ent time. is, It is claimed, the only spe-
ciflc treatment for liquor craving with
in the knowledge of man. It quiets the
lining of that organ. thereby restoring
the suspended flow Of gastric Juice; re-
moves the engorged condition of the
liver by stimulating the flow Of bile,
QuietS the nervous impulses. impartS
vigor and soothes and satisfies the
gnawing, burning desire for strong
drink. 1t is free from alcohol itself and
does not leave another habit in the place
of the one 1t has relieved. Those who
have used the remedy testify in the
highest terms to its harmless yet tonic
effect. No trouble Of the heart Is felt,
no weakness of the eyes or double vision
Is experienced, no nauseated feeling or
depressed condition, no loss of memory,
no mental arrangement, no unpleasant
physical effects.
