STOCK AND PRODUCE MARKETS.


Affect Stocks Seriously.
New York, June - he strong upward
movement of the Changers, which was
the feature of the market during all of
last week received some check today on
account of the rumors of damage to the
corn and other crops in the northwest
by the bad weather. But there was moth
ing like a general reaction nor a general
swing towards a lower range Of values,
such as the room traders have been keen
ly watchful for during the last two weeks.
Confidence in the general outlook for i'm
provement seemed to be unimpaired
among security holders, and the offerings
to take profits were steadily absorbed
without affecting any marked lowering
OF prices. Closing bids:

IT is significant that ten out of the
fourteen members of the commission
appointed by the British Parliament to
investigate the causes of the agricul-
tural depression prevailing in that
country have recommended the free
coinage of silver as a remedy. 1t is
significant that the majority of French
financiers and of the French people
have about concluded to open the mints
of that country to the free coinage of
silver. 1t is equally significant that the
Bank of England has in hesitating
and tentative manner declared that un-
der certain circumstances it will keep
one-fifth of its redemption reserve in
silver. Does this mean that the silver
craze will have to be killed again, and
that this time it will have to be killed
in Europe, the home and breeding
place of the gold bug?

Obituary.

Died-At the home of her father
October l, 1897 at AS P. NJ, after a
brief Hines of thirty six hours, Mrs.
Adela Jane Black, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. NJ. Bone, near Tuckerman,
Arkansas.
The deceased was born April u,
1880, professed a saving hope in Christ
and joined the United Baptist church
in 1894. and has lived devoted chris
tian ever since. She was united in
marriage July 4th, 1895, to Mr.. Samuel
Black.
Her last words with reference to
death and eternity were spoken to her
father about as follows:
Il am prepared to meet my God and
loved ones gone before. | am pre-.
pared to die; don't grieve after me. :
But we thank God that our loss is her
gain, and that we sorrow not as those
who have no hope and that we shall
meet her again where parting shall be
no more. She has fallen asleep in
Jesus; that blessed sleep from which
none ever awake to weep.
A sad and bereaved father and
family. four brothers and two sisters
followed her to Pleasant Grove church
where he remains were inferred. A
number of warm friends are left to
mourn her loss, but we can soon go to
meet her. PARENT.

est and most festive manner, as though
the devil never would be to pay; when
the silver craze has become the phan-
tom of receding past which will new
er again disturb the slumoer of the
man who lives by bonds.-we say, it
is a most remarkable thing that any of
our leading financial journals should
begin to croak of panic and general
business disaster as being the certain
result of reckless speculation. Is there
a skeleton at our sumptuous feast of
prosperity? The following from re-
cent issue the New York San would
indicate that the management of that
paper thinks so:
Speculation in stocks continues to
rage, and with a violence that delights
the brokers but makes the judicious
apprehensive of future trouble. \
A slight effort of memory only is need
ed to recall similar state of things
prevailing during the few months
which preceded the crash of 1898.
People bought stocks then as eagerly
and at as inflated prices as they are
buying them now.
Further on it says ''the peril (sic)
which thus threatens would be i'm
measurably lessened if, instead of our
having 1000 banks, or one for each
1000 of population. we had but half
dozen or So" Now, by all the gods
at once. we protest against such out
rageous language! Has the Sua
turned raven, and will it croak of cal
amity aud desolation on the very curb
stones of Wall Street, to the discom-
fort of the butterflies that resort thith-
er to bathe their gaudy wings in the
golden sunlight of the prosperity that
is now overlooking that thoroughfare?
How can that sunlight be darkened so
long as we have the gold standard?
Were we not told year ago that if we
elected Mckinley and maintained the
gold standard every good thing should
be added to US, and that panic, failure
aud business disaster of every kind
should be banished from the land, to
return no more forever? Is the pros
pect the Sun presented to US then a
mirage picture painted upon air,
only useful to decoy the confding ag-
riculturist and the unsuspecting work
ingman into the desert where they
may perish peacefully without annoy
ing their betters?

THERE is no doubt about the Ding
ley bills being a benefcent measure,
nor is there much dispute as to who
receives the major portion of its bene-
fits. Wool, since the clip has about
all got out OF the hands of the wool
grower, has reached something over
so cents per pound. This, one would
think, might have tendency to make
the consumer pay more for his blank
cts and clothes this winter; but if we
are to believe the agents of prosperity
this will not be the effect of protection.
If the prices of wooden goods are high
er, it will not be because OF protection,
but due entirely to the continued agi-
tatlon for Free Silver. Sugar, oil,
iron, steel and many other articles
protected by law and the Trust. have
gone up, but the consumer does no:
have to pay more for what he uses be-
cause of protection. He is robbed by
a revival Of the silver lunacy.

daily like the Sun-the chief organ of
the Gold Trust-lifts up its voice in
walling, we can be assured that things
are not as they should be, or, which is
more probable. its editor has turned
Anarchist As the Sun and every
other Hannacratic paper in the land
has been shouting for the last six
months that prosperity is here, it
would seem to be little less than GRIM
inal to intimate that we can get TOD big
feed of it. When the envious for
eigner bluntly declares that we are
living in a FOOLS paradise, that our
prosperity is a make-believe prosperi-
ty, and that we are sitting down to a
Barmecide feast, 1t is time to agitate
for an international agreement in re-
gard to injuuctions. The Sun can be
souelched at any time.

JUDGE Fox is presiding over our
court in his accustomed able and dig
nified manner, giving the closest at
tention to the business in hand, and al
the same time treating the humblesi

he is distinguished. We venture the
assertion that no judge in the state has
a stronger hold upon the people of his
district than James ID. Fox. and his

regarded as public calamity. Such

THE English press is seriously de-
batting whether they had not better
patch up peace on the northwestern
frontier of India than to further at
tempt to subjugate that region. The
Afrids and other mountain tribes of
that region are putting up a better
fight than was expected, and England
finds that If she persists in her course
she will have to engage in a long and
costly war. and perhaps have to fight
Russia before it is concluded. John
Bull would rather let some one else
fight while he furnishes the ammuni-
ton.

SEVERAL years ago Robert G. Inger-
soil was a pronounced Free Silver man.
Last campaign he advocated the Gold
Standard with all the virulence his
florid oratory could command. We
venture to suggest that under certain
contingencies if the gold cure could be
applied to Uncle Roberts diseased the
ology, the scales could be made to fall
from his eyes, and in future he would
be a. home among the righteous. 1t
would take ample doses to effect the
cure, but there is scarcely a doubt
that If enough of the remedy could be
applied his spiritual convalescence
would be rapid.

THE WIRE NAIL TRUST.
A Demurrer To the Complaint Taken
Under AIYisement.

Judge Baker yesterday heard oral argu-
ment on demurrer to the complaint in
the case of Lewis G. Bramkamp against
Eugene j. Burlington and others, and took
the case under advisement. This is the
suit at law against the Wire Nail Manu-
facturers' Association, the Wire Nail Trust.
1t was filed in October along with suit
in equity, in which the plaintiff sought
an injunction to prevent the defendants in
terferring with his business. He claimed
that he had tried at. several wire nall ma
chine factories to purchase machines. but
had been prevented by the Wire Nail Trust.
which had the manufacturers so bound
that they dared not sell to any wire nail
manufacturer that did not belong to the
association. Judge Baker granted a tenn
porary injunction on the suit in equity and
this has had the effect to at least tempor-
arily break up the trust. as the price of
wire nails has dropped TO a ridiculously
low figure as compared with prices before
the granting of the Injunction.
The suit at law is to recover damages
TO the amount of 100000 from the members
of the trust The bill is in two paragraphs,
the first alleging a violation of the anti
trust law Of July 2, 1890. The second para
graph is an action at common law, alleg-
ing the same offense. Both sides yesterday
agreed to file printed briefs in support of
their argument. and the court will with
hold decision on the demurrer until they
are considered.
