OIIs OWIHR NItehtIOH 20 Complaints ABOUT
Their III Treatment From insurgents.
Washington, Oct. 1S.-Gen. Otis is
giving attention to the complaints that
have reached him to the effect that
the Philippine insurgents are i'll treat
ing and killing such of the friars as
fall into their hands. There is difficulty
in dealing with such cases, owing to
the fact that the United States military
and naval forces are not always in pos
session of places where the outrages
are committed, but they are under in
structions to use their good offices with
the insurgents to prevent the commits
sion Of these outrages.

The medical report was made by
Lieut. +. A. Washburn, assistant sur
geon in charge at Utuado. 1t is in part
as follows
The general health of the men of the
9Th Massachusetts is steadily improv-
ing and a number of men reporting at
sick call each morning Is diminishing.
There have been very few new cases OF
typhoid fever in the last two weeks, the
hospital accommodations here are
ample aad the men receive all the es-
sentiais of treatment. The number of
men reported sick in the hospital ap-
pears large, but the main reason for
this is that there are so many conval-
escent typhoid fever cases
Appended are copies Of sick reports
for September 90, October 3 and October
5 respectively:

ably does not measure it, as the loans
which have been called have been, III
part, replaced in time loans and COM

Prices of standard stocks are ] to y
points lower than a week ago, declines
in the speculative bond issues are to
3 per cent, government bonds are -
to 31h per cent lower. call money rates
have risen from ~ TO 3 per cent and
exchange has fallen to the gold import
point with $2,200,000 engaged for ship

represents the changes in the financial
situation from last Saturday Prices
of stocks are considerably above the

downward plunge took on panic con-

Humiliation in the stock market was
forced by the marking up of call loans.
Coming on a market poorly supported
before the threatening outlook of the
Cuban question and with many orders
to sell out long stocks, these offerings
precipitatcd n decline that wiped out
all margins and brought a torrent
of stock on an already weak market
From Il technical standpoint, the stiffen'
ing of money rates precipitated tne de-
cline. The higher money rates were IN
turn due to Withdrawals of currency from
New York banks for shipment to the in
terror. Competent expert autnOrltles
differ as to whether this movement of
money to the interior is to he attributed
to tllI preparation for the regular
spring settlement and is thus to meet
regular business demands, Ur whether
it is cautious safeguarding by interior
banks against possible need growing

The Cuban question was, of course. the
incentive for very large offerings of
stocks and bonds, hut the forced iquitla.
ton was largely augmented by the eX>
panding uses for money in fields other
than speculation.
The London market has steadily refus-
ed to rake alarm at our Cuban compli-
cations and has persisted in buying
American securities in face of the vio-
lent decline i'll their prices.
Prices in the bond market have moved
in sympathy with stocks but over

creased volume of business. Declines

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Feb. 26.-The stock market
was listlescs and without decided tone
to-day. The net changes were trivial III
most cases and the market moved UP
and down within a narrow range. Lon
don buying gave slight upward impetus
at the opening and then profit taking
by yesterdays buying drove prices below
last nights level. The close was above
the lowest but net changes were mixed.
The course of prices was unsettled and
conflicting in the final dealings, some
stocks moving upward and others down
ward simultaneously and apparently
without manipulation. The whole of
trading was by small room traders and
large operators were apparently com
tented to stand by for the present and
watch the course of things. Some of the
stocks were notably firm all day, such
as the Reading and Erie issues, North
ern Pacific preferred and some of the
Southern and Southwestern. Canadian
Pacific also ruled higher. The bank
statement was without particular effect
az the conditions disclosed had made
themselves felt during the week. The

Deaths Betrothal.

few yeais ago a New York newspaper
conducted an open discussion upon the
topic: rs Marriage Failure ?' The
answer is easy and upon the surface. Where
there is mutual love and respect, if there is
also health. marriage is a success. When
health is left out, event the most ardent love
does not count, and marriage is invariably
a failure.
Modern science has cried the warning
so often that all should realize the dangers
of wedlock to people in ill-health. In a
case of this kind death turks on every side
in the kiss of betrothal and the caress of
the honeymoon. The man who is suffering
from ill l-health is a physical bankrupt, and
has no right to condemn woman to be his
nurse for life and the mother of babes that
inherit his physical weakness. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery acts directly on
the digestive organism 1t makes it strong
and its action perfect. When a mans di-
gestion is all right his blood will be pure;
when his blood is pure his nervous system
will be strong and his health vigorous.
A woman who suffers from weakness and
disease of the delicate organism of her sex
Is certain to suffer from general ill-health,
and to be an unhappy, helpless invalid and
a disappointment as wife. Her children
will be weak, puny and peevish. A happy
home is an impossibility for her until her
health is restored. DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription cures all troubles of the dis
speedily, completely and permanently. 1t
fits for wifehood and motherhood. Both
medicines are sold by all good dealers.

The Supreme Lodge at its last
session refused to approve the "Sur-
plus Fund" adopted by the Grand
Lodge Of Montana, and also SINH
lar enactments by the Oregon and
Indiana Jurisdictions. These en-
actments modified in a greater or
less degree the Classified Plan of
the Supreme Lodge. The following
action was taken by the Supreme
Lodge:
Resolyed, That the Grand Lodg-
es which have presented for approx
al amendments to their Constitu-
tons or General Laws relating to a
Surplus Fund be instructed not to
collect any additional funds or dis
burse any so collected until such
time as this Supreme Lodge shall
determine the method and manner
under which Grand Lodges may
collect and disburse the same, and
the Supreme Master Workman is
hereby authorized to appoint Il
committee of three to report to the
next meeting of this Supreme
Lodge its recommendations concern
ing the same, and said committee
shall also recommend a uniform
plan for the collection and distribn-
ton of surplus fund, the adoption
OF which shall be permissible but
not mandatory.
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1898-09-24
not mandatory.

The older members are beginning
to realize that, Notwithstanding the
increased cost for the time being. it
is yet cheaper in the end. Let us
all put our shoulder to the wheel,
for by so doing it means IA lessen
ing of the number of assessments,
which is naturally followed by "A
decrease in cost. Therefore let the
members who have sons, brothers
or an eligible male relative bring
them into the fold. remembering
that by SO doing they will be con-
nected with an Order that practices
equity and justice towards all its
members, placing no unnecessary
burdens upon anyone and because
it is now operating upon a plan
that is based upon scientific prin-
ciples, enabling it to fulfill its obli-
cations in every detail, as we'll as a
knowledge of just what is required
to pay its mortuary assessments.
Time will demonstrate to all soci-
cites in existence to day, which are
founded upon principles contrary
to the laws of nature that their
plans are radically wrong and must
be changed. The Ancient Order of
United Workmen stands at the
head of the list; it has made the
change and is upon substantial
basis.
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1898-09-24

The Hoosier Watchmdn says it
knows of one member in Evans
Vile, Indiana, who was so "dead
set" in his opinion of the CLASH
fed Plan that he joined another
society, still retaining, however, his
membership in the A. 0. u. w.
He endeavored to induce a close
friend to join the other society with
him. but the latter said he would
"stick" to the Workmen, and if he
could not carry a full rate certifi-
cate would reduce it later to half
rate. Some time afterwards the
first named member met his friend
again and said: "George, your
head is level. The Order | joined
has raised its rates great deal
higher than the A 0. U. w. and |
now see where the Work men Order
was doing its best to save itself
and still keep its rates as low as
possible. 1t is the best Order in
existence and Pll never say another
word against the new plan"
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1898-09-24

The general condition of the
Order throughout the country is
good, and affairs are adjusting
themselves harmoniously. The
feeling against the new Assessment
Plan, where it has been adopted, is
gradually dying out, and in a short
time every member will recognize
its worth. All the old workers will
soon be in line and will be seeking
applications with renewed vigor
and enthusiasm. Many of the
Jurisdictions believe that it will
only be a short time before the
month will roll around when an
assessment will not be needed, and
when this does happen everybody
will feel that the new plan is doing
all that it promised.
