Il considerable extent dominated the
market, but speculation showed Il ton
dency to ignore fluctuations in this
group. This circumstance caused some
fa, orable comment as did also the fact
that the general list lapsed into dullness
and showed comparative steadlness when
concerted attacks on the specillt;es were
made. London quotations indicated II
none favorable disposition towards Am
orleans abroad, which WAS reflected in
S1.d hrying here throughout the Jay.
Operations by the hear faction were re-
newed in various directions with Man
haitian looming to the front. Tobacco,
of course, was the most vulnerable
point and soon yielded to 125. Covering
by shorts put the price back to 1881
and intermediate fluctuations between
that and the close at 1854 were ac-
companied by violent dips. The stock
generally speaking showed n better tone
and ended for the first time this week
with n net advantage An analysis of the
Burlington figures proved that the fears
concerning it entertained yesterday
were groundless and there was a brisk
movement to cover which advanced the
price almost = points.
The bears had counted confidently on
accomplishing liquidation i'll the rail
ways on the publication of the report
and its good reception in the street put
them to rout and large lines were sold.
Prominent interests were ranged on the
long side for while and the sentiment
became more cheerful. Call money rates
sagged to 21a per cent. late in the day.
The action of the government in antici~
pating the November interest, coupled
with the early receipt of large amounts
of goods in transit were responsible for
the decline in rates. Time money was
also quotably easier for the shorted pc
RODS and some prime mercantile paper
was discounted at 49, per cent. Consid'
cradle pressure was concentrated
against sugar as the day drew to n
close, but the stock soon recovered and
ended firm in common with the remain
der of the list, which established light
net gains.
Bonds ruled fairly active, but irregu-
lar. Total sales $1,9S3000.
Government bonds were a trife easier,
the threes reacting II per cent.
The total sales of stocks were $4,000
shares, including 11,175 Atchison pre-
ferred; 1880 c.. b. and O.; 29,3SO
Manhattan: 29225 Northern Pacific;
1880 St Paul; $50 Union Pacific
preferred; 1860 American Tobacco;
$3.50 Peoples Gas; $4,000 Sugar.

for dry goods was a quiet one to-day.
There was little or no store trading at

New York, September 29.-The general

increased the apprehension OF the less
confident hears. A sharp reaction in
futures at Liverpool led to realizing late
in the forenoon any by midday the early
gain had been about wiped out, although
at no time did the market show signs of
particular weakness. Covering set in
anew early in the Afternoon and on this
demand prices again rallied, with the
January and March deliveries absorbing
the bulk of attention. Investment buy
ing stimulated the bull crowd to some
thing like old time aggressiveness, but
absence of strong leadership seriously
handicapped longs. At the close the
feeling was quiet and steady, with prices
net unchanged to point higher. Orders
from the South went chiefly to the long
sides while foreign representatives We're

When the Northern Pacific first acquired
the Montana Union il was the intention
to operate it continuously under a sepa-

altered the plans and for several months
there has been talk of the likelihood of a
complete consolidation. but the matter
hung fire until yesterday. when final in

Mellen and j. M. Hannaford, the general
traffic manager of the Northern Pacific.
When the party OF officials was i'm town

decided upon. but the officials said they
would further consider the matter on
their trip West and send instructions .
they should arrive at some definite conclu-
sion. The result was the orders received

NO MORE UNlUCKY VICTIMS.
DIR. Dogge's System of Charges Defeat,
Ouacks MuIcting Patients.


There is one thing that DR.. o. H..
Dogge of 81 North Main street. Butte,
has done with his system of treating
office patients at s. per month. and
hat is. he has, i'm a measure, put an
end to fakir and quack doctors mulcs-
ing patients. more especially people
suffering with private diseases.
1t is a well o fact that when a
person with a private disease gets into
the hands of one of the quacks he is
taxed just as much as his circum-
stances will stand. There is no ECU
lar price. He must pay all he has, and
generally owe something besides.
In the first place such medical fakirs
have little or no skill. and certainly no
conscience: so that, unde the most IA
vorable circumstances, ii is dangerous
to. trust ones self TO them. Now. DIR.
Dogge, whose success in treating pri-
vate disease of male and female has
never been g~ainsaid, pursues a system
as to fees hat leaves no possible room
for overcharging. He treats these dis
eases for S. per month, or for whatever
time il requires less than a month. As
many of the private ailments require
much less than a month. II properly
treated. il is quite clear that the doc
tor would not want 20 drag the case
out a whole month when two weeks
would answer the purpose.
