FOREST CITY.

William Klozcokowsky, who has been
running a small store in the Bouter
building on South Main street, will be
sold out by Constable M. ]. Walsh on
Monday next at o'clock in the after
noon. A sad feature of the case is that
the proprietor is lying very low with
consumption.
Miss May MaXey, of BoZeman, Mon
tana, has been the guest of Forest City
relatives for the past few days. From
here she goes to Scranton to spend a
short time with friends before starting
for her western home. Miss Maxey
has just graduated from the Boston
Conservatory Of Music.
The Hillside Coal and Iron company's
Fire company has received a splendid
new hose wagon. The color chosen was
white, and the wagon makes a very
pretty appearance. Although the COM
pany was organized and is maintained
for the protection of Hillside property,
yet at every fire that occurs the bows
are promptly on the ground working
with well directed energy. The people
of the borough appreciate the services
they have rendered and will be pleased
to note the recent addition to the COM
pany's equipment.
There are less buildings being erect
ed here this spring than any spring
before since Forest City has been a
borough. The reason. no doubt, is the
dull times and scarcity of money.
The carelessness shown by many
drivers in blocking the crosswalks and
holding pedestrians back or making
them wade through the mud, leads one
to think that a man may be the best
of men in every other way, and every
other common law of decency obey, apd
yet, nine cases out of ten, he'll stop his
team and talk, with his wagon at a
crossing, standing square across the
walk. This is putting it very mildly.
convention will be held by Susque-
hanna county Republicans, at Mont
rose, on Tuesday, June 15 The pri-
maries for election of delegates
throughout the county will be held on
Saturday, June r. Forest City is en-
titled to four delegates, having two
wards, but should have a delegation of
at least six. Montrose has little more
than half the voters we have, but yet
is divided into three wards and conse-
quently wieldS much greater influence
in convention than we do. Working
on the county seat plan, we should
have at least five wards, which would
give us a delegation Of ten. However,
just for the present we will have to
be satisfied. Our delegates will have
the opportunity of helping to nominate
a prothonotary, jury commissioner,
coroner and three delegates to the state
convention. The prothonotaryship is
the principal office to be filed For
this, it now looks as If H. F. Manner, of
Susquehanna, would receive the Re-
publican nomination. He is fitted to
fill the office acceptably, and would be
as strong a candidate as could be chos-
en-. OF course, a Republican nomina-
tion means an election in this county,
so the real fight for these offices will
be in the convention of June 10.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, May 5-Today's market was
reactionary throughout and very many
stocks showed loss of a point or over on
the days transactions, the gain of yestec-
day being for the most part lost The ac-
tivity of the dealings was considerably
diminished as compared with yesterday.
The turbulent rush to cover for the shorts
last night left that interest largely depict
ed in today's market and there was no re-
sultlng pressure to buy. The total sales of
stocks today were $4,000 snares.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let 1t stand twentyfour

an unhealthy condition of the kidneys.

evidence OF kidney trouble. Too fire

There Is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's

edy tulfills every wish in relieving
pain In the back, kidneys, liver blad-

MANY BLOWS EXCHANGED.
A Lively Row, but, Happily, No
Fatalities.

FaIahl1eSs
There was nearly a shooting ARRAY
yesterday afternoon at Fourth street
south and Second avenue, in which
some one would surely have been hurt,
for there was enough bad blood to go
around. The principals in the fight
were Dan Haley, proprietor of 3
saloon on the above corner, and Bob
Salter, owner of a similar establish
rnent at Third street south and Third
avenue Salter went to Haley's place
of business and the two became in
volved in a quarrel. They came out on
the sidewalk to settle the dispute, and
Haley proposed to wind up the affair
with a big forty-four- caliber revolver
which he drew. He was persuaded to
put it up, and then Salter struck him
a blow in the face which staggered
him, and this was followed by second
equally as severe. Haley was soon
downed, and a large crowd gathered.
Salter had his opponent on the walk
and was beating him up to turn
when a friend of Haley came out Of
the saloon and dealt Salter blow on
the head with a cane which brought
him to the ground. Haley, by this time
had regained his feet and had pulled
out his ever handy weapon. He struck
Edward Wilson, Salter's right-hand
man. on the head with the revolver,
cutting the latter's hat off his head
Haley threatened to shoot his opponent,
who made tracks to shelter behind II
wagon near by. Both men were pac-
flied by their friends, and the matter
had blown over before any arrests were
made.

WASHINGTON, May 4.-The tariff
bill was reported to the senate To-Day,
to the surprise of senator's and the pub
lic When the senate finance commattee
met, the idea prevailed that the Dill
would be held in committee for TWO
days. All the members of the commit
tee were present. The Democrats ex-
amined the bill for nearly an hour,
making running comments upon 1t.
They announced that they were against
the bill, as whole. They soon under
stood that Senator Jones, of Nevada,
was going to vote with the. .Republi-
cans, and realized that there was no
possibility of changing the bill They
had no desire to make any fact1Qus OPP
position, and when motion was mace
by the Republicans to report the bill
at once, the vote was taken promptly.
All the Republicans, with Senator
Jones, of Nevada, voted for the motion,
and all the Democrats voted against
it, the vote standing six to five Later
in the day, Senator Aldrich announced
that he would call up the bin Tuesday,
May IS. The Republican members OF
the COIQIIWItC6 Say CIlSIS 10 III SNoSS-
ment to be made now as to the effect OF
the bill, the amount of revenue to be
raised by it, or the reductions. When
the bill is taken up in the senate, Mr..
Aldrich will make such a statement in
the opening speech
TT will raise revenue" was the COM
ment of Senator Allison, assented to
by Senator Aldrich They estimated,
however, that the increased revenue to
be raised from beer would be $13,000,0OO,
and from tea, 100000 900. Senator Jones,
Of Arkansas, the Democratic tariff lead
er, said that he expected there would
be about six weeks debate on the bill.
Several sections in the last part of
the Dingley bill, which were re-enacted
in the present law are stricken out. This
will have the effect of leaving the
present law stand, and avoid discussion
to a great extent The comments OIL
the bill are of course, partisan. Some
features are very much disliked by even
Republicans, but upon most the Re
publicans commend and the Democrats
condemn, though members of the COM
mittee say that the subcommittee has
in many particulars improved upon the
Dingley bill The new bill is radically
different from the Ding1ey bill, prac-
tically amounting almost to another
measure Many important schedules
were rewritten entirely.

The matter of the attack Of Bank Ex-
aminer Kenyon upon the officials of
Hennepin county appears to have SIM
mered down into a question of verac-
ity. County. Attorney Peterson, who
claims to have won one legal battle
from the attorney general, says fatty
that the charges made by the sheriff
and the present system of doing things
in Hennepin county are correct, ac-
cording to law, and practically asks the
bank examiner what he is going to do
about it. The bank examiner wants
to have the sheriffs, past and present,
indicted, and Mr.. Peterson is in charge
Of the grand jury, and there you are.
However, the report has had one inn
mediate effect. The present sheriff of

Cotton Letter.

New York, July 9S.-In the face of de- cded bearish l.. fiuences the cotton mar ket held it's . surprisingly we'll today. Liverpool declined two and half sixty fourths this morning and the drought in Texas was broken by showers of a fairly general character The opening here was five to eight points down in con- sequence. The bears were jubilant and hopeful of a further break but the indis- position to sell cotton on any decline was again apparent and prices became steady after the opening. No notices of delivery were circulated for August and that month was firm all day and closed one point above last nights figures. The strength of August and the demand for spot cotton were the chief sources of sup port to the market today. January open ed at 7.03 advanced to TOT, and closed at 705@706, with the tone of the market firm on the near and steady on the late months. Late in the afternoon adyices from San Antonio announced good gen eral rains all over that section. The drought in Texas broken the bulls must rely upon the statistical position alone to cause an advance.
