trade was not slow to realize the ltuation.

ON CHANGE
Conditions as Shown by Transactions
on Wall Street

NEW YORK, July 25.-There was some
price movements of considerable Import
ance In stocks today, but the effect on the
general list was only slight. The early
heaviness in the railroads was to some eX-
tent corrected and the level of prices gener-
ally brought back about to Saturdays
close. Outside OF the special cases referred
to, however, the price movement was in
significant. and no large demand for stocks
was, perceptible.. The most conspicuous
stock in the days trading was Sugar, and
prices advanced rapidly lnder vigorous ma
nipulation. There was no news forthcom-
ing to account for the rise so far as the
prospects Of the company are concerned,
the outlook continuing, SO far as known
the same as when the recent large short
interest was formed. The marking up Of
the stock is attributed to powerful pool,
which has set about cunning for shorts.
The combination apparently had pretty
good success, and secured some large COW
erng orders in the course Of the ~ rise.

ly been the objects Of bear attacks sympa-

DANGEROUS
POiSOnS TO Blame

During the past few years the use
of minerals and other dangerous drugs
has gradually increased to such an
extent as to be positively alarming.
At the present time nine Out of every
ten prescriptions that are filled contain
minerals and other drugs which, if
purchased without the prescription,
would have the imprint of the skull
and cross. bones as we'll as the word
POISON prominently displayed on
the label.
To the intelligent reader-one who
will devote but a few moments to
the study of human nature-the dam
ger of the attempt to cure disease in
this manner will be quite apparent.
Among the animals on earth not
one can be found that under any cir
cumstanceS will partake of minerals.
The dumb brutes of creation avoid
these minerals; instinct warns them
Of their dangerous character.
Man is an animal-albeit he is hui
man-and his natural food consists of
herbs, either directly or indirectly.
This food with which he sustains life
and fortifies his system does not con-
sist of minerals. Then why resort to
minerals to restore diseased organ
Of your body to normal and healthy
state' Nature has provided a remedy
for all the Ills of mankind-not dan
gerous drugs and minerals, but herbs.
DIR. WONG, the famous Chinese
physician, locates every disease by
the pulse, and cures the disease with
Chinese herbs. During the past ten
years many of our leading citizens
have placed themselves and members
of their families in his care and have
been cured. Why not you'
DIR. WONG'S magnificent SAM
tarium is located at 713 South Main
street, where it has been for the past
ten years.

AN APPALLING
SEA DISASTER
Passenger Ship in Coils
ion-535 Lives Lost.
Men Act Like FIends-DO Foul
Murder in Hour of Direst
Peril Some Heroes.

NEW YORK, July 6.-The French |
line steamship La Bourgogne was sunk |
in collision with the British iron ship !
Cromartyshire early on the morning of
July 4, sixty miles south of Sable ISL
and. Of 725 souls on board 535 were
including 2O7 first and second
class cabin passengers. All the first
cabin passengers were lost, and of 500
women passengers on the ill-fated
vessel only one was saved.
The crash came at o'clock in the
morning. The horror of the wreck
was increased by the murderous work
of Italian immigrants on board who
drew their knives and stabbed many
passengers to death. The officers, who
died as brave men, were powerless to
control their mad passengers and
madden crew. The second officer of La
Bourgogne did the work of a dozen
heroes.
When all on board realized the awful
nature of the collision there was
mad rush from the cabins and steerage
for the deck above. The order to low
er the lifebOats was given, but amid
the frenzied excitement which in an
instant seized upon the sailors of the
doomed ship, it was unheard or disTe-
garded All discipline disappeared, and
the sailors fought like demons to gain
possession OF the boats and life rafts.
Women were forced back from the
boats and trampled by men, who made
MISREPRESENTATION their first object On
board were a large number of Italians
and other foreigners. These fends
stopped at nothing.
In one boat was party of forty wo-
men. but so great was the panic that
not a hand was raised to assist in it's
launching. The occupants, so nearly
saved. were drowned like rats when
the ship went down. Knives were
f1ourished by the frenzied men and
used with effect. Women and children
were driven back to death and, accord
ing to the stories of survivors, many
women were stabbed like so many
sheep. The scene in the water was
even worse. Many Of the untortunates
who were struggling in the water at
tempted to drag themselves into boats
or on RATS, but were pushed back anu
drowned.
While the frantic passengers were
struggling to secure places in the boats
and on the life RATS the b'g steamer
floundered helplessly in the fog. the
captain fired rockets and distress sig
nails. but suddenly all was over. La
Bourgogne plunged down as If struck
bv a thunderbolt. There was scarcely
an instant given to escape from the
fearful vortex, which sucked down
scores of trembling passengers who
