Fina1,rial.
There Was Marked prop in Stocks Yes--
 terday Throughout the List.

terday Throughoutt the List. New York, Nov. 1.-The stock mar ket underwent a course of very drastic liquidation to-day, as result of which the prices are from to points lower than last night. That this course of things was helped along by profess sional bear pressure was made evident by the very urgent covering movement which developed in the final half hour of trading and which rallied the prices of great many stocks over a point from the lowest point touched, reduc- ing by so much the losses which would otherwise be shown by to-day's trad ing.
 But this recovery at the close was on greatly diminished volume of busi- ness and was apparently effected by the temporary withholding of liquidat- ing offerings, as was done once or twice previously during the day, only to be succeeded by renewed liquidation and decline.
 There is no doubt that the motive of large part of the selling was the belief that relations between the United States and Spain were drifting towards an open rupture. This has been a bear argument for some time in the stock market and has been quite effective in depressing prices whenever anything that could be construed as corrorbora- tive evidence was offered. Apprehen- sfons on this score received a potential stimulus from the action of the New York chamber of commerce yesterday in appealing for an increase in the ar- tillery force of the United States army as necessary for the adequate protec- tiOn of New York and proper opera tion of it's harbor defences,
 The published expressions from the late United States minister to Spain disclosing the character of the dipIo- matic relations between the two coun- tries and his outspoken advocacy of in tervention by the United States in Cuban affairs intensified the sentiment of apprehension amongst security hold CTS.
 The nearer approach of the conven-
 
 event was to crystalline the govern- ment's policy toward Spain made the prospect more vivid to traders eyes. Some continued apprehension regard ing the health of the president of the Sugar company. made that stock, with its powerful influence on the whole market, particularly weak. This com bination of factors was conclusive in inducing many large holders of securi- ties to unload under the construction that no immediate recovery in prices in any large dimensions was likely to occur.
 There was a flood of selling orders and very little disposition in any quar- ter to buy. AS a result enormous blocks of stocks were allowed to go for almost any price they would bring. In the first rush of liquidation prices

 A VERY OLD CHURCH.


 One of the very few old churches still standing and practically unchanged is St. Luke's, at Smithville, Isle of Wight County, Va. It was built in 1882, as attested by the date on some of the bricks, under the superintendence of Joseph Bridger, whose descendants still live in the county and worship in the church. The records of the family, which are unbroken for period of 15O years, establish the date of the build ing of the church, and are full of inter- esting details of early colonial history
 It appears that St. Luke was originally so well built and of such excellent material that no repairs were made to it until 1737, 1O5 years after it's com pletion. At that time it was ordered ''that Peter Woodward do the shingling of the church with good cypress shin- gles, of good substance, and well nailed, for 700 pound of tobacco, 300 pounds being now levied.'' It was again re- sfingled in 1921, eighty-four years lat er.-'"The Country Church in America, !" by William B. B.Bigelow, in Scribner's.

\ BAUBAROuS SURGICAL OPERATION
For the Cure of Piles

IS not only intensely painful, danger ous to life and very expensive, but in the light of modern medical research and since the discovery of the Pyramid Pile Cure, surgical operation is wholly unnecessary. If you have any doubt on this point kindly read the fol- lowing letters from people who know that our claims regarding the merits of the Pyramid Pile Cure are borne out by the facts,
 From N. A. Stall, Ridge Road, Mi agara Co.,, N. T.: received your Pyr- amid Pile Cure and tested it last night. It did me more good than anything I have ever found yet, and remember this was the result of one nights treat ment only.
 From Penn W. Arnett Batesyille. Ark: Gentlemen-Your Pyramid Pile Cure has done me so much good in so short time that my son-in-law. Capt. T. J. Klein of Fort Smith, Ark. has written me for your address, as he wishes to try it also.
 From A. D. Townsend, Benville Ind: have been so much benefited by the Pyramid Pile Cure that I enclose $1.0O for which please send a package "tAASAA NiSAA eo solNC lO d lrlenu mine who suffers very much from piles.
 From John H. Wright, Clinton, De- Witt Co.,, Ills: I am so well pleased with the Pyramid Pile Cure that think it but right to drop you few lines to inform you it's effects have been all that I could ask or wish.
 From P. A. Bruton, Llano, Tex: Gen. tlemen-The Pyramid Pile Cure has done so much good for me that I will say for the benefit of others that after using only two days I am better than have been for months.
 The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by The Pyramid Drug Go. of Albion, Mich, and it is truly wonderful remedy for all forms of piles. So great has been the number of testimonial letters re- ceived by them from all parts of the country that they have decided to pub- fish each week a number of such let ters and never use the same letter twice; but only fresh letters will be published.
 All druggists recommend the Pyra- mid Pile Cure, as they know from what their customers say that no remedy gives such general satisfaction.

Atthe Hyperion.

Sweet Inniscarra," Chauncey Ol- cotts new Irish play, scored a decided hit at the Hyperion last evening. The drama is very pretty, and although there is the usual dire plot, it is neatly decorated and prettily planned. Olcott has a splendid voice and manner which would satisfy for many defcien- cies play might have. Sweet Innis- carra," however, has very few deficits, and those that appear are Of no great significance. The pretty songs render ed so beautifully by Olcott brought en- cores upon encores.
 A good cast supported him, among them worthy of notice being Luke Mar tin, Paul Gilmore, Rolinda Bainbridge and Mrs. Lizzie Washburn, as well as the youngsters, Little Imogene Wash burn. Ada V. Gilbert and Little Lotte

of horse, and the length of the bones exceptional. The skulls are of fine proportion, ample, and with walls of moderate thickness, but of great strength, and stiffened behind by a powerful occipital ridge. The curves of the forehead are moderate, and not re- treating, suggesting intelligence, and connected with jaws of moderate devel- opment.
 The locality from which these skele- tons came is in Frederick county, near Antietem Creek. It was formerly SUD- posed to have been the battle-ground of two tribes of Indians, the Catawbas and the Delawares. Tradition has handed down the statement that be- tween the years 1730 and 1736 the Ca- tawbas overlook a band of Delawares at the mouth of the Antietem, and in the battle that ensued the 'Delawares were completely annihilated. So the tradition goes, but according to Dr. Philip R. Uhler, president of the Mary land Academy of Sciences and provost of the Peabody institute, a careful ex- animation of this locality has failed to establish evidences of battle at this point, although numerous spear and arrow heads have been taken from the soil here.
 It Is of great interest, however, to mo- tice that the locality was, at an earlier date-before the coming of the white manLoccupied as a village site by h. dians of great stature, some of them 61s to feet in height. The bones of these were buried like those of prehis- toric tribes in other parts of the state. The manner of burial was like this: The flesh was cleaned from the bones, some of which were then charred. The small bones of the face and neck were packed in the cavity of the skull, and a round hole about 21k feet wide, was dug in the ground, in which the skele- ton was buried and carefully packed with clay. In the grave was also plac- ed pottery, a tomahawk and the other weapons belonging to the Indians. No stone marked the grave, and no beads or wampum were buried with the skel- eton. But over all, the earth was heap ed up in a small oblong mound, along which other similar mounds extended for many feet. The overflow of a neigh boring river at this point had almost destroyed the burial area, so that only three of these small elevations were recognizable at the time of excava- tion.-Baltimore American.

were offered down very widely before eliciting any buying.
 The extreme decline in Consolidated Gas reached points, Sugar 5ss, Lake Erie and Western preferred 51h, com mon 4, and Manhattan AS. There was scarcely an active stock on the list that did not recede at least points below last nights level.
 There was a rush to sell bonds as well and losses of between 1 and 2 points were frequent all through the list.
 The fact that the liquidation was not precipitated immediately at the open- ing was due to the fact that London prices of American securities advanced slightly. The enormous interests at that money center are usually so well informed on international affairs that the absence of apprehension there had the effect of steadying prices here mo- mentarily.
 The fact was not lost sight of either that there was buying for London &C., count in this market at almost all stages of the decline. After the open ing here prices fell in London to the New York parity, there was nothing to account for the hardening at the close but covering of shorts.
 Aside from the general weakness in bonds, the feature of that market was the strength of Kansas Pacific consols, which recovered 11s per cent. from yes- terday's prices.
