WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Downing, Hopkins & Company's Review
of Trade.

Downing, Hopkins & Company's Review
of Trade.
Buyers of wheat have been slaughter
ed this week and many holders have
lOosened their grip on hitherto well
held lines, believing as they did, in
the many crop reports telling of damage
in the Southwest, and more particularly
in stories from Indiana and Eastern
Missouri. Their faith appears to have
been misplaced. They received no as
sistance from the general public, and
people who are chronic sellers saw the
opportunity and persistently fought
the campaign, and their efforts have
met with success. The result has been
a severe liquidation of the previously
existing speculative interests, and there
can but be little doubt that the mar
ket at the close of the week is more
nearly evened up than at any time in
several years past. Wheat has lacked
good cash demand for some time, and
without it there is only the conclusion
to be drawn that value should decline.
The fact that red wheat commands a
high premium has not had the slight
est effect in preventing or even staying
the depression that set in early in the
week and which caused loss of cents
in the future deliveries and 4 proper
tionate break in the cash grades. A
great many inclined to the belief that
the break was due to manipulation and
not from legitimate causes. This theory
is rather doubtful and can be ques-
toned. The market is always more or
less subject to manipulation, but to the
extent of the decline that has occurred
this week does not seem probable. We
are of the opinion that the current
weakness is due to disappointment with
the rate of flour consumption, which
is smaller than had been expected, and
with the larger arrivals than had been
looked for, and, although the public is
suffering this disappointment, it has no
need to despair, for, at the slow rate of
current consumption, the world ends
the crop season lower in supply than in
any season before since the price was 80
cents a bushel for an average of sea-
son.
For various reasons it is apparent
that the present price is to be temper.

every school, and they are today agreed
that it stands alone as the reliable rem
edy for building up PERSONS health
in the spring.
The most overwhelming testimony to
the value of Paine's celery compound
that has recently appeared from men
and women of national regulations:
Hon. George b. Swift, mayor of Chi
cago; Francis Murphy, the foremost
apostle Of temperance in the world;
Mrs. Matthew S. Quay, wife of the
great Republican senator from Pennsyl-
vania; Ex-President Cook, of the Ma
tional Teachers Association; Rev.
Charles L Thompson, d. d.. the bril-
liant Presbyterian lecler of New York
city; Elizabeth Cady Stanton; Secre-
tary Carlisle's private secretary; State
Treasurer Addison b. Colvin of New
York; John Graham, the foremost man
in American athletics; the wife of Rev.
Charles II. Parkhurst, the famous
preacher and reformer, Mayor Nc
Shane, of Montreal, Major General
Birney, Judge Powers of Vermont, and
Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1897-04-22

true specific recognized and prescribed
today by eminent practitioners for dis
eases arising from debilitated nervous
system. Prof. Phelps gave to his pro-
fession a positive cure for sleepless-
ness, wasting strength, dyspepsia, bill
iousness, liver complaint, neuralgia,
rheumatism, all nervous diseases and
kidney troubles. For all such com
plants Paine's celery compound has
succeeded again and again, where ev-
erything else has failed.
When Modjeska in letter published
in Boston said: 81 have found Paine's
celery compound the very best of all
remedies for the nervous exhaustion
consequent upon the arduous work of
my profession," she voiced the expert
ence of every tired-out, rundown, ex-
hausted woman whoever went to this
greatest OF all spring remedies for
relief.
No one ever yet failed to find strength
and health returning who faithfully
used natures true remedy-Painc's eel
cry compound.

Il host more of prominent men and
women, including no less than five U.

sands of grateful people who have re-
Gently sent to the proprietors of this
wonderful remedy their expression of
its unequaled value-men and women
who can we'll afford, and do command,
the highest medical advice in the
country.
And then also the people in the ordi-
nary walks OF life there come thou
sands of honest, Straightforward, heart
felt letters, telling how Paine's celery
compound has made them WELL
Their testimony simply goes to show
what New England's $ most vigorous ed
itor so aptly said in letter telling of
the benefit Paine's celery compound
had been to a member of his family:
'Paine's celery compound is not
patent medicine; it is not a sarsaparilla;
it is not mere tonic; it is not an or
dinary nervine-it is us far beyond them
all as the diamond is superior to cheap
glass"
