much danger and distress. This was DR..
Pierce's conviction thirty years ago, and
he set about to fad way to set the
trouble right. The result was the prepa-
ration and introduction of Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription, the only medicine
of its kind devised by a regularly gradu-
ated, experienced and skillful specialist
in the treatment of the diseases of wo-
men,-the only medicine in the world
that frees the period of CESSATION from its
discomforts, and makes partllrition safe
and practically painless. 1t is an abso-
lutte specific for all forms of female weak
ness and disease. 1t may be obtained at
drug stores, and any woman who would
like to know all about it, or who would
like to have advice about her health,
should write to DR.. Pierce, chief consult
ing physician at the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y.
Any woman who is sallow and bilious and
headachey, who does not sleep well, and who
is troubled with any form of indigestion can
do no better thing than to try the effect
of DR.. Pierce'S Pleasant Pellets. They are the
only positive and permanent cure for const;-
patton. They stimulate the action of the liver
and assist Nature in getting rid of impurities.
You do not become slave to their use. Take
them until the regular, healthy action Of the
bowels has been restored, and then quit They
remedy. They do not cause gripping or any
other unpleasant feeling Don't let your drug
gist impose upon you and substitute something
which he says is Just as good"

The World of Business

1t was ruInorS Of war thatcauSed the bear
raid in Wall street yesterday. There were
other influences, toO-the trust inyeStiga-
tions principally. The GraecOTurkish stu
alton may surely be considered as not of any
great Importance. The powers will not al
low war, and, even If things were pretty
bad, is doubtfulif the effect on American
securities woald be marked. The fact of
the matter is that the whole drop in prices
was a matter Of manipulation by the bears
solely. The public was not in the market
Certainly the week opened with a consider
able depression. Stocks were hammered
with vigor and success, and timid Specula-
tors gave them up all along the line. Col
or4do Fuel and Iron declined -, Leather
preferred l Ia, Tenne lessee Coal and Iron
l II, and American Spirits preferred l 34.
Later in the day, after the first bear furry,
all of this decline was regained, and more.
For the ful! session most of the stocks show
ed net gain.
The market closed firm; total sales were
lS3, ,Il5 shares, OF which the indUstrals
had by far the larger part. The feeling
| is general that prices will not range much
higher, il any, for some time to come.
There were two notable exceptions to
| the gains for the session, Manhattan and
| Western Union. They fell with the mar
| ket in the morning, and subsequently could
| not rally for the full extent of their fall.
| Manhattan declined from IS 3-4 to SO 3-4
! and the old story about an issue OF bonds
| was revived. The sale of about 1000
| shares OF the stock by broker who usually
| acts for one OF the insiders, attracted
| general attention. Manhattan closed at
| 81 IA, a net loss of l IA per cent. West
| ern Union lost 1-2. l have been bear on
| Manhattan and western Union for Il long
| time. They are good stocks to sell on all
| rallies. A great deal more money will
| be made on the bear side of Manhattan
before it is through going down.
Sugar, although it dropped with the rest
of the market in the morning, had fine
| rally and closed for the day Ill rs. Its
| course is in accordance with views eX'
| pressed in this column heretofore. The
| LeXow committee is not having very much
fun with Mr.. Searies and the other trust
| witnesses. Officials of the company treat
the investigation lightly, and are concern
ing themselves mainly with the talk of tht
| changein the sugar duties by Congress. The
Sugar people are manipulating the stool
to suit themselves at present, without {
doubt, and somewhat OF a rally at The
present time is to be looked for. The
future prices of the stock must depend, o
course, on what Congress does. If th'
Sugar people are treated badly they still
have enough surplus, if they wanted t
pay it out, to pay their little 2 per cen
dividend for several years, even if the
didn't earn cent in their refineries. L
is supposed, however. that a cut in tn
dividends would occur in such an event
Sugar at it's present prices. however. woul'
not be at all higi.- priced stock if tn

price would be almost entirely a sentimental
one, and there seems no good reason VIII.
Sugar should not be higher, for a long tim

railway company to compromise the
Mitcheli.C Chamberlain daily passenger
train order Of the commission. Attor-
ney General Grigsby, who has been in
Chicago representing the state and the
commission in the matter held a confer
ence with the officials of the road at
which they offered to put in operation
a daily passenger train on the Mitchell
Chamberlain line from low on until
January l, 1898. In addition thereto
tae road agreed to put in operation and
maintain a daily passenger train four
months in the year beginning with
October l, 1898 and continuing up to and
included the 31st day of January Of each
year. In return the Milwaukee asks
thai the commission modify its order.
The proposition will not be entertained
by the commissioners. From the evi.
dence and from admissions made by the
company at the recent hearing held in
this city, the commissioners found that
the profits of the road were sufficient to
warrant the issuance of the ord,r and
they will take steps to compel the road
to comply.
