EtllaneIal.
Tho Stock Market.

New York, April 6.-There is a strong conviction in Wall street that delay in the sending in of the presidents mes
 sage is favorable to the avoidance of war. This was clearly manifest in the
 response of the market to the early rumor from abroad that the presidents message would not go in to-day and to the later authorized announcement
 from Washington that it would be
 withheld until Monday. The disposi-
 tion of the message was the central
 point about which the whole market
 turned all day. The assertions of the
 newspapers this morning that it would
 without question go in to-day and that
 it would declare for forcible interven-
 tion caused the decline at the opening,
 opening prices in almost all cases being
 the lowest of the day. The resistance
 to the decline and the quick recovery
 were surprise to outside observers,
 who were prepared for something like
 a war panic on the exchange. The re- covery was due to cabled reports of a rumor in London that the message would not come in until next Tuesday. This rumor was quickly diseredited by statements from Washington and the
 market drifted to lower plane again, but not to the lowest. The stagnation of the trading during this period of waiting was almost absolute and the sudden outbreak of activity when the later authentic reports came from Washington that the message would be l delayed until Monday was in strong | contrast. It was evident that the con- | clusion was leaped to that the with 1 holding of the message was due to a reception of further proposals from | Spain or to movements for mediation | by European powers giving promise | that the two countries might emerge peacefully from their entanglement
 | The violent advances was checked l and reaction set in when it was stated l that the delay was due to advices from l General Lee that he would not be able ! to secure the departure in safety o1 Americans from Cuba before next Mon- | day. Prices. stiffened again, however l before the close on the strength of the I general sentiment that delay favored | peace The money market maintained
 waiting attitude. Time money was l firm at per cent. for all dates, but the
 exchange market showed a hardening 1 tendency. Gold continues to come
 however from abroad.
 1 Bonds moved in sympathy witt
 stocks and were stagnant until the last
 hour, when prices advanced on a spurt | of activity. Total sales, $1, ,350,000.
 l United States new fours regular were l 1a lower bid. Prices otherwise un.
 changed on the day. The new fours
 coupon sold all the way from 120 at the l opening to 1211a, the last transaction.

 Greetings-From Conn. c. F. union, Conn. Veterans association, New Haven c. E. union. Anthem.
 Address Team work"--Rev. James l.. Hill, D. D., Salem, Mass. Rev. Dr. Hill of Salem, Mass, was one of the men who brought the Chris- tian Enedavor movement into being, by
 giving it the full weight of his, powerful influence and enthusiasm. He was a conspicuous figure in all the early con- ventions, and his wit and resourceful-
 ness were always on tap. The presi- dents of the state union and the local union are expected to make addresses. A whole generation of young people
 have grown up and passed out of the society. It has done it's work for them, | and is now doing a similar work for
 those who are now the young people of the church. Many of those who have been trained here have gone elsewhere and are giving to other churches the benefit Of their training. But many of | them also remain here and are becom- | ing the strength of the church. 4 social occasion will be enjoyed and | light refreshments will be served after | the programme is concluded.

CURES WITHOUT PAIN.
One of the Best Features of the New Pile
 Cure.

cure.
 The Pyramid Pile Cure cures every form of Piles without one particle of pain. This desirable point Is not ob- tained by the use of injurious opiates which simply deaden and paralyze the nerves of the parts and make matters worse in the long run. But it is done solely by it's remarkable healing and soothing effects.
 And while 1t thus gives immediate relief, at the same time the disease is not merely checked, but radical cure is rapidly accomplished And the point we want to make clear is that all this is done without parti- cle of pain.
 This fact is one reason for the great popularity of the Pyramid Pile Cure and constitutes one very great differ ence between it and almost any other kind of treatment for piles. Every kind of surgical operation for piles is excruciatingly painful besides endangering the life of the patient and in most cases Is not to be compared with the Pyramid Cure, neither in making successful cures without pain nor in .cheapness and safety. The Pyramid Pile Cure has been be- fore the public too long, and it's merits recognized by too many people to allow | it to be classed with the many salves, suppositories, pills, etc., and you run no risk in trying it. as is often the case with new and untried preparations. If you are ever troubled with any | form of piles or rectal disease do not | forget the Pyramid Pile Cure.

Two years ago this April representa-
tive gathering of prominent American
citizens was held at Washington to have
all international disputes settled by ar
bltration. There was no war cloud then
in sight, and elegant speeches were
made by able statesmen and eloquent
divines, all holding up the beauties and
humanity of arbitration. The idea held
out was that war was wicked and that
civilized and Christian nations should
never go to war. But here we are with
strong war feeling getting up here and
in Spain. While we have troubles
enough Spain has more. Yet according
to all accounts the Spanish people are
anxious to get at us as if they had not
troubles enough already without another
enemy like the United States. And as
for us, we had better get further away
from our present war burdens before
seeking wa. even with poor Spain.
Let US hope there will be no occasion
for another war until our pension load
has got down to modest amount. Our
poet Lowell, whena young man, rhymed
against the Mexican war in his Yankee
vernacular saying:
Ez for war, call il murder;
There you hev it plain an fiat,
And l needn't go no furder
Than my testyment fer that
