nARKET REVIEW
late Reports direct from the Chi
cago Board of Trade.

Chicago, Nov. 16.-Large receipts
and large exports were about an Off
set in their influence on the market
until near the close, when the price
broke away, closing at the bottom.
December showed less decline. Ad-
vices from the Northwest stated that
while receipts at interior points
showed, some decrease, they were
likely to be liberal with favorable
weather for two or three weeks, at
least. The increase in the worlds
visible was about a million bushels
less than expected. Business to-day
was nearly all local, the majority of
the traders being bearish. Theweak-
ness in the market is as much due to
the absence of general speculative
interest as anything else. The con
tract wheat in store here is now
100000 bushels, an increase of
$4,000 bushels for the week. This
is exclusive of that in private houses.
1t looks now as if the amount deliv-
cradle on contract would reach
100000 bushels by Dec. 1. After
that the increase will be small.

A LITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
Scrofulous Humors - How a Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. It
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
1t to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned y

THEY'RE CONFIDENT OF WIN
MING THEIR STRIKE.
"NOTHlNG TO ARBlTRATE
Operators DO Not Favor Any Ehorts
for a Compromise with the Men
Everything Is Quiet in the Affected
District-Coal lakes Big Bound
in Value.

Pittsburg, July 1l.-President Ratch-
ford left the city quietly Saturday
night for his home in Massilon, Ohio.
A protracted meeting OF the district
executive board of The United Mine
Workers was held Saturday afternoon.
1t was decided to take aggressive ac-
ton at once, with a view OF making
the suspension total in this district II
possible by tomorrow or Tuesday.
Reports regarding the mining situation
in the Mononganela valley have been
misleading - a great extent. \ dis
patch from Monongahela city says that
no unusual demonstration has taken
place in that district yet, Work there
has been suspended in nearly every
mine, leaving at least rs mines idle and
affecting on an average of 200 men at
each mine. The miners of the Wheel
ing division were paid Saturday for the
two weeks ending July /. Contrary to
expectations, there was no disorder at
any of the company's offices. Finley
willie, practically the center of the mines
in that division, was quiet as village
The miners along the Wheeling diyi-
sion are in fairly prosperous condl-
ton. Notwithstanding certain stories
of restitution The men all affirm that
they will not touch pick or shovel
until President Rat1hford sanctions
their return to work
over $500 mon scattered along the
Baltimore Il Ohio road ia this region
are idle because of the suspension, \
canvass of the operators just made on
the arbitration suggestion made by the
labor leaders conference showed that
with the exception OF Col Rend, not
an oprator seen favored arbitration at
| this time.
There was a furry in the coal market
Saturday. Before the strike coal was
quoted at 20 cents per ton Saturday it
was difficult to buy it al $3.50 ton.
