The shutting down OF cotton factories
is not significant as affecting the general
feeling of confidence in a reawakened
prosperity.
The cotton mills run largely on stand
ard goods. lhoy DO not have TO watch ont
for their market so cautiously as do other
manufacturers. Their market does not
change with the shifting chance OF
fashion.
Tho consequence Is the cotton mills have
been kops going more steadily and per.
sistontly than have the other kind of fac.

Distinctly Better Tone to the stock Market
 Yesterday.

New York, March 30.-There was distinctly better tone to the markets for securities to-day. The apprehension in regard to the recent decision of the su- preme court disappeared in measure because of the announcement that leading officials of western railroad as- sociations had given orders to the freight agents to maintain rates and also because of statements which were afterwards confirmed that the counsel for the Joint Traffic association would advise the continuance of the associa- tion until the supreme court had an op- portunity to pass upon Its legality.
 Only one reaction of importance oc- cured during the session and that was in sympathy with the sudden break in Jersey Central from S57s to S2 on a re- vival of the rumors recently current that the dividend will be reduced It is to be said that even this failed to dislodge long stocks in any considerable amount and the decline from the high est of the morning was only 4 to H. per cent. outside of Leather preferred, which broke 21s to 55A.

DERELICT IN THEIR DUTY
(continued from First Page.)

Continued from First Page) The witness thought one of the keys he had fixed for the officer.
 Pacilli's helper corroborated the tes- timony of his boss.
 Bellman's witnesses were then called. They were Patrolmen E. J. Reilly, James Ward and James B. Munson and Louis Rosenwick. The officers testi- mony was offered by Bellman to prove that he never was in the barber shop, and that they had always found him on his beat Neither officer reported at the time that Bellman did, and could say but little concerning the charge.
 James B. Munson, a liveryman, testi- fled to seeing Bellman patrolling his beat on the morning of the 25th of Feb- ruary.
 Rosenwick's testimony was offered to show that Bellman was delayed from making report at the proper time be- cause he was assisting him release a horse that was cast in his stall.
 The accused denied that he was ever in Pacilli's barber shop. He admitted that he had taken a key from Pacilli, but had thrown it away without using i it.
 The board in executive session voted to suspend him for thirty days, and he was summoned before the board and reprimanded by the mayor. | Commissioner Moran was of the opin- 1 ion that the accused officer should be expelled from the force, and he main tained that the good of the service de- manded that this action be taken.
 The ciyil service board recommended the following applicants for appoint ments to supernumerary positions: T. F. Holloran, 9S; T. A. Ryan, 93*; F. J. Murphy S9 F. w Lathrop, S3: w. H. Kennedy, S2 W. F. Herman, SIS; Platt H. Merwin, 72; Charles E. Lane, 70.
 The two applicants marked with the star were appointed.
 Patrolman Maurice Connolly, who was suspended two months ago for using language unbecoming an officer, was re-instated.
 The board did not consider the mat ter of superintendency. There will be a special meeting next Wednesday even- ing, but as there is considerable busi- ness to attend to,the fact that the meet ing is called has little significance in the matter of Superintendent Smiths successor.

CAN'T BE DONE.
No One Can Remain Well, No Chronic Dis case Can be Cured Unless the Stomach Is FIrst Made Strong and Vigorous.

case Can be Cured Unless the Stomach Is
 First Made Strong and Vigorous.
 This is plain because every organ In the body depends on the stomach for it's nourishment. Nerve, bone, sinew blood are made from the food which the stomach converts to our use.
 How useless to treat disease with this, that and the other remedy and neglect the most important of all the stomach.
 The earliest symptoms of indigestion are sour risings, bad taste in the mouth, gas in stomach and bowels, palpltation, all-gone feeling, faintness, headaches, constipation; later comes loss of flesh, consumption, liver and heart troubles, kidney diseases, nervous prostration, all of which are the indirect result of poor nutrition.
 Any person suffering from indigestion should make it a practice to take after each meal one of stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, allowing 1t to dissolve in the mouth and thus mingle with the saliva and enter the stomach In the most natural way. These tablets are highly recommended by Dr. Jennison because they are composed of the natural diges- tive acids and fruit essences which as- sist the stomach in digesting all whole some food before it has time to fer ment and sour

THE RALEIGH POST.

We are glad TO welcome into the world
Of newspaperdom the Morning Post of
Raleigh, n. c. The personal appearance.
so to speak, of our contemporary Is
agreeable TO the eye and we think that
il bids fair to fulfil its promise to print
all the news that is worth reading.
We are particularly pleased with its
editorial policy, being in advocacy OF
sound money and Jeffersonian Democracy
and opposed to political humbuggery in
whatever phase it may show itself.
Here is a sample paragraph from its
editorial columns:
The Clearing House Association Of At
lanta has issued a request for meeting
in that city on the 18th instant. OF the
bankers OF the South, Ito consider cur
rency reform The Association says
that the time has arrived for the South
TO demand from Congress better banking
facilities under just and equitable fed
eral law" This Congress ought TO do
something-it was elected on pledge TO
do something. 10 reform the currency.
and IL something is not done that will
change the present condition OF affairs
in the agricultural sections, the radical
measures OF designing demagogues will
receive a boost that conservative and con-
scientious citizens will find difficulty in
handling.
II tho Post will keep 1t up on that line,
it will not have lived in vain.
