Yesterdays Stock Market Was Inactive,
but Prices Held Firm


New York, Sept. 27.--The stock mar
ket to-day showed a very marked fall
ing off in activity, the total sales of
stocks reaching only 100000 shares The
diminished activity. was in part due to
the observance of the Jewish New Year
holiday by many brokers and operators
But there was a disposition on the part
of many large interests to stand aside
for the time being and allow prices to
take their own course.
Prices rose after the opening in sym
pathy with the quotations received from
London and there was buying also for
London account here. Later some trad
ers professed to be disappointed at the
size of the increase shown in the August
gross earnings of Omaha and that stock
was sold down sharply. The decrease
in the freight tonnage shipped eastward
from Chicago last week was also used
as an argument for a depression of pri-
ces. Rock Island was one of the stocks
under special pressure.
The market receded below SATURDAYS
close under these influences, the decline
In Rock Island extending to IL, but
only to fractional amounts in other
stocks There was also a recession from
the best at the close, so that the ex-
treme advances during the day consid-
erably exceeded THE net gain. The mar
ket advanced in the afternoon TO the
highest point of The day The money
market continued to attract the great
est share of interest as the future course

No other lned.c:re in tho VOID is recon-
mended SO hga,y, SO stt-onSS..55 and So earnestly
and by so many we,,-.snoTn ard prominent
people as DR.. Greeno's ,Ie-yu-a b,cod and nerve
remedy. It is recommended to the sick BIZ al
most everybod!s, IS t'lo su-ost cure. 1t is
recommended e1e-yW,le'a as the greatest of a!
health rsstorc-s. 1t isTc.iably gives strength
to the tired, ovo-- wor,zed and wocn-out body.
Itinakes pure, rich Waited hood and strength
ems and inyigorates the nerves of those who are
nervous, nerye-weakened and nerve-eXhausted.
Then, too, look at the standing of the people
who recommend DR.. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy as the greatest and grandest
of medicines. They are our foremost citizens
men and women occupying high places OF honor
and trust and known to everybody, people
whose word is always the very essence of truth
and who recommend the weak, nervous and
suffering to use DR.. Greene's Neryura because
it cured them, because they have absolute per-
sonal knowledge that it is o sure srestorer 5ot
health and strength, and because they wish the
public to have the full advantage of this truly
wonderful medical discovery.
They desire that health strength and yigol
shall take the place of weakness, prostration
and despair among the people, and they publish
the marvellous facts of their own cures, over
their own signatures, that the common people
everywhere may know that to take DR.. Greene's
Neryura blood and nerve remedy means to be
restored to health, reinvigorated rejuvenated
revitalized, with new hope, renewed powers,
energies and ambitions.
The daily morning journal and courier. [volume] (New Haven, Conn.) 1894-1907, 1897-09-28

Here, for instance, is the recommendation
for the people to use DR.. Greene'S Nervura by
one of our greatest statesmen, Hon. H. Henry
Powers, Morrisyille, VT, Member of Congress
and Chairman of the Committee on Pacific
Railroads, Member of the Committee on cleo
ton Of President and Vice-P President, and who
for sixteen years before taking his seat in Con-
gress was Judge of the Supreme Court. He
has also been State Senator and Speaker of the
Vermont House of Representatives. Surely
there can be no higher testimony in favor of a
remedy than the personal words of so distin-
guished a statesman and eminent judge and
we doubt not that his testimonial and encour-
aging recommendation to those who are out of
health to use DR.. Greene's Nervnra, will result
in the cure of everyone who reads these lines,
for his advice will certainly influence all to i'm
medately use DR.. Greene's Nervura.
Congressman Powers says:
81 have found that DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy is most valuable
tonic, toning up the system and producing a
condition of refreshment and buoyancy after
long continued mental strain. l have heard it
spoken of in terms of high appreciation by
many responsible witnesses, and fully concur
in their opinion.
H. HENRY POWERS"
Get DR.. Greene's Neryura blood and nerve
remedy at once and be cured.
Remember that this wonderful cure is a
physicians prescription, the discovery of the
wel-known DIR. Greene, 35 West 18th ST.,
New York City, who can be consulted free by
the people, personally or by letter.

THE INCOME OF THE AVERAGE
COLLEGE PROFESSOR.

To turn to the material side of things,
the assurance of fixed income Is a
source of permanent satisfaction, how
ever disproportionate the income to the
service that is rendered To be sure, the
salary of full professor, the country
over, is little if at all in excess of two
thousand dollars. In the larger univer-
stiles it may rise to three thousand dol
lars or something more, but the men
who receive above four thousand dollars
are so few as scarcely to affect the gen
eral average. Aside from the bare pos
sibility of a call to richer institution,
the college professor is not likely to be
earning more at fifty than at thirty
Unlike most other professions, there Is
here no gradual increase of income, to
give tangible evidence of a mans
growth in power. Unless one has taken
the Northern Farmers thrifty advice,
and gone where money Isl when he
married, his outlook as he faces old age
is not reassuring. Pensions are ex-
tremely rare; college trustees are forced
in most cases to be as ungrateful as re-
publics. The cost of living has steadily
risen in college towns, keeping pace
with the general increase of luxury
throughout the older communities. Here
and there, particularly in the west,
there are exceptions, but upon the whole
the scale of necessary expenditure for a
man fulfilling the various social duties
required by his position is constantly
growing greater. The professors Incl
dental income from books and lectures
is ordinarily insignificant. When he has

peoples toll and progress; therefore, it
is unnatural and artificial to avoid re-
sponsibility to national issues and polit-
zeal cowardice and political crime
Greater New York will be the I'M
crowned capital of America. The demo-
Gratis of New York have a responsibility,
not only to themselves and the greater
city, but to their party and its living
principles and the nation. This election
is the most important and influential
political event between 1896 and 1900. To
suggest that the democratic party plat
form has no place in this contest, is to
admit a doubt of it's wisdom and places
the democratic party on par with the
fallacy of non-political government The
issue is the life of the party, not the
garment, and to alter or deduct from
the declara tons of the assembled party
is mortal injury; nor nave hattalions

other, now shoulder to shoulder as

of speculation is felt to largely depend
on the supplies of money.
The tone of the market was somewhat
easier to-day, but there was little de-
mand Shipments of currency to the
interior continue in large volume and
1t is believed this demand will not be
exhausted for some time yet. Several
of the leading banks in the city already
show their reserve reduced below the 20
per cent limit and several others have
almost exhausted their surplus reserve.
1t is believed that further contrac-

A Letter in Which He Warns Tammany
How to Act

A Letter i'll Which He Warns Tammany
How to Act
New York, Sept 27.-Typewritten
copies of the letter alleged to have been
written by William Jennings Bryan on
the Greater New York campaign are be-
ing circulated to-day among the local
free silver" democrats. The letter is
said to have been brought to William
/. Brown and it is claimed Mr.. Brown
placed the matter before John C. Shee-
han. leader Of Tammany Hail. The let
ter is as follows:
"A triumph of the democracy of
Greater New York, except under the
auspices of the issue that animates the
party, will have the same moral effect
as a renewed and affirmed triumph of
the agencies leo by Senator Hanna.
When parties cease to represent certain
fixed principles the supreme prerogative
of the ballot becomes prostituted to a
contest between organizations for the
spoilS OF Office and the enjoyment of
success. To this prostitution of the bal
lot may be ascribed every chapter of
shame and corruption in the history
American municipal government 1t is
better to have a government by the re-
publican party, responsible to it's declar-
ations, than government by democratic
partisans without responsibility to dem
ocratic principles.
MANY persons confound opposition
with principle. A mere partisan demo-
cratic opposition to the candidates of
the republican party cannot be dignified
with the time honored banner of Jeffcr-
son and Tilden One of the most fascn-
ating fallacies of the day is the claim
that opposition to the administration of
office by partisans Is g principle.
$50 called non-partisan government is
not principle and should it be accepted
and eliminate political parties from
municipal affairs, it invites unreasona-
bic contests. Government might as
well be decided by the fortunes of rival
colors in the football field. The demo-
cratic party is the enemy OF this fall
lacy.
81 do not, therefore, subscribe in any
way to the theory that good city gov
eminent is TO be found in government
without party. If the dream of non
PARTISAN government becomes a reality
then would arise condition of contests
for power between citizens unions and
peoples unions, each claiming to be the
only original purveyors of purity in gov

From the Gaalfte Champaign, III

At the advanced nge Of 6ighty-fve years,
James McMillen, Of 112 West Washington
street, is one Of the most active men in Cham
paign, Illinois Mr.. McMilen is a pioneer
citizen of the city, and his form is MS familiar
ON the streets as that of any citizen of the
town. All his life Mr.. McMillcn has iol-
lowed the trade of shoemaker, and every day
finds him at his bench, bending over his work
with apparently the same vigor he come
manded when be was a young man.
He has q little shop ON North Wright street.
IN the vicinity of the University Of illinois,
and he is the ofcal shoemaker, as it we're
for the students OF that institution.
About year ago Mr.. McMillen was absent
from his bench for several weeks and his
familiar form was missed along the streets.
The local newspapers announced that he
was dangerously i'll. For months he was
sufferer but finally he appeared again at
his shop, and has lost but very few days
since then and none, perhaps, on account of
sickness His friends were surprised to see
him out again, and they were more surprised
when he told them the cause Of his recovery
There was no small amount Of local inter
est in his case, and a reporter visited him,
TO have him relate the story.
