ECHOES OF THE CONGRESS.
Kind Words Regarding the Session of
the irrigation Congress.

The following paragraphs were pub
lished by the National Advocate. San
Francisco, of which George II. Maxwell
is the editor:
1t was generally conceded by those
who attended the irrigation congress
at Cheyenne that it was the most sue
cessful and satisfactory session of the
Irrigation congress that has yet been
held. The delegates in attendance were
practical mem; the subjects discussed
were practical subjects. the resolutions
adopted aim at practical results. and
these results are perfectly feasible, and
will be accomplished. All that is need
ed for this is patient and persistent agi-
tation and work on the part of those
who want these results achieved.
Wyoming is fortunate in her public
men who have enlisted in the irrigation
cause, and too much credit cannot be
given to them and to the people of
Cheyenne for the splendid and success
full effort they made to make this Irri-
CATION congress a success. The dele
gates were royalty entertained. A re-
at the Cheyenne club. an excursion to
Wheatland. were special and most en-
joyable events. but the w~hOIe-hearted
western hospitality with which Chey-
enne received and entertained her
guests was in the very air. and everyone
went away singing the praises of Chey-
enne, and carrying with hin pleasant
remembrances of the place and its peo-
Pile.
We will not undertake in this mum
Der to give any detailed account of this
session Of the congress. or of those
from states other than Wyoming who
took part i'll its deliberations. because
We propose to continue our
on the congress through every issue of
the coming year. Justice could not be
done to the subject in any single issue.
We hope the interest aroused at Chey-
ennc may be kept alive until the same
men and many more come togther in
Montana next wear TO make anotber

progress Of each year in the reclamation

A COMMON SUPERSTITION.

Many people believe that the break
ing of a looking glass is a certain sign
of death. The newspapers report that a
mother recently became insane after
dropping a mirror because she feared
that some of her loved one would soon
die. There are other signs much more
dangerous than this. The most COM
mon is a disordered stomach, which
causes nervousness, dyspepsia, indiges-
ton and constipation. These symptoms
tell the sufferer that his days will be
shortened unless he sets things right
in his digestive organs. For this pur-
pose there is nothing so certain to cure
as Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. 1t reg
ulates the bowels, steadies the nerves
and whets up the appetite. 1t is the
standard remedy. There is no substi-
tute for it.

DRIED FRUIT MARKET.

NEW YORK. Jan. 25.-The Journal of Com merce says In the dried fruit market the po- sition of Grecian entrants seems to be of the chief features of interest. In spite of the higher duty. statistics to show that there has been little decrease in imports, as com pared with last year. The effect of a higher tariff, however, has been to increase the spot market values. and higher prices here have apparently Induced holders on the other side to turn their attention to this market. as, in spite of the increased prices, goods still seem to be wanted by American consumers who do not seem to find in California fruit that is offered a substitute for Greek entrants the flavor for which the foreign article has long been esteemed by the consuming public. On the other hand small seedleEs raisins of Cali forna have. it is reported. been selling more freely during the past season than ever before, although importers disposed to attribute this to the growth of consumption of dried fruits a whole rather than to the substitu- tion of the California product for the Greek dicate that the stock there is larger by 5000 tons than stated by recent cables. but whether this includes of the stock held back under the retention law, represents the quantity available for immediate delivery, have information In any event. the situation in all markets seems to depend upon what further shipments offers may be made from primary sources. At present the spot market is steady. with under small and well concentrated supplies.

EASTERN MARKETS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-The timidity mani fested by dealers in stocks yesterday be- cause the warship Maine had been or dered to Cuba was fully equaled by the confidence with which traders bought back their stocks to-day when the ship had arrived in Havana. The most notable feature of the days trading was in the large volume of transactions for London. account The number of shares bought in New York for London was estimated at from 90. 900 to 40.000 shares. Even with this large demand to be filled, prices were not lifted at the open ing fully to the London parity. The sharp de- cline seemed to have awakened a demand in London for Americans and early quotations from there showed yesterdays declines here largely recovered. The strength of the Span ish fours in London also indicated the absence of apprehension of embodiment between the United States and Spain. London gave the tone to the days market and sustained 1t by the absorption of free offerings of securities after the opening. The foreign buying of se- curities sufficiently heavy to have a marked effect on the exchange market the actual rates declining 15d, with the demand for bills very light London's large buying of se- curities in fact led to renewed talk of early imports of gold. and this talk is given addi- tional force by the showing of merchandise exports from New York for the week. which were over Sl. 200. 900 in excess of last week and over 8. 0e0. .00O greater than those in the clos ing week of last year. It evident that ? some of the professional traders who put out short contracts In yesterdays Cuban scare re- turned from covering in the early transactions in the belief that the market would become easy after London had ceased operation. The belated shorts rushed to in the final transactions and made the tone buoyant at the close, which found prices at the best for the day for the standard stocks. Yesterdays losses the average have been more than re- covered New York Central was most con rspicuous in the dealings. with its net~gain of over 3 points, and the stocks of allied proper ties shared in the strength to a somewhat less extent. Union Pacific. the Northern Pacific and the other properties which go to make up the Klondike group were all conspicuous for strength and the Changers and Sonthwesterns may be added to the list. The local transit and gas stocks moved in a somewhat cratic manner under palpable manipulation, all show ing gains except Third avenue. which reacted sharply.

The weakness due both to foreign and domestic news. The Liverpool ca bles but Ad higher at the opening, and this slight advance was soon lost There was confirmation of the sensational reports of yesterday afternoon regarding the Austrian de- mand for Argentine wheat, of the Russian importation of German grain and news from Havana very pacific. Heavy snows were reported all over the winter wheat country. Minneapolis and Duluth received 323 car loads
 against $50 the corresponding day of last week.
 and 125 the similar day of the previous year
 Chicago got 35 cars, against 45 a year ago. Primary market receipts in the West were 316. 000 bushels. against 327. 900 bushels a year ago. The Atlantic port exports very IIb- eral, being equal in wheat and flour to 53t 900 bushels. That includes considerable quanti- ty from Newport News About 45 minutes after the opening the pit was set in commotion
 January being the center of interest That de- livery was nominally worth 95c at yesterday S opening. About l0:15, however. brokers for Letter began bidding for January. and the price was advanced far that for few min utes 1t appeared to be fairly running away. From 95hc 1t jumped half cent at time. brokers raising their bids that much until si bid. Then the reaction same, the price dropped almost as quickly as it advanced It sion was comparatively quiet. The gyrations of January were generally believed to be due to clever move on the part of the Letter crowd. who it is thought took this method to advance the price of May. This belief was strengthened by the unloading which took place in the latter option at 94c, to which price it was carried while the pyrotechnics were going on in January. Allen and Grier were said to have taken 10000 bushels of January in get ting the price to a dollar. For the rest of the morning prices were nervous. though no great trading was done Bradstreets visible report showed decrease of but 730. 900 bushels and was dlsappolntment, and was factor fin the decline to s3h, which took place after the bulge to 94c. Late in the session, however. re- ports that Italy's bread riots were increasing and the military had been called out started some brief buying and May was advanced to was done in July, and prices rather tended
