NEW YORK, Aug. 1s-The stock mar

after a brief period Of hesitation and re-
action after the publication of the bank

Foreign markets have had marked eff
feet upon grain prices in leading centers
of the United States the past week.
Light receipts from the section of the
country expected to send in larger guam
titles of grain have also assisted in maxi
ing the grain market decidedly bullish
There is a net gain in wheat over the
previous week of a little less than two
cents, which is quite large, considering
conditions that have prevailed for many
weeks past. AS stated, the prime cause
of strength in the market has been per-
sistent advances in Liverpool and Lon
don. The latter market was not heard
from as a factor until near the close of
the week, but when 1t did report the re-
suit was favorable to the bulls. Receipts
from the Northwest the past week have
been away below estimates Just what
this is due to remains to De shown. At
any rate, it has had the effect to bolster
up prices until steady gain day by day
has forced the price of the active OPP
ton up in the approximate amount of
two cents.

twenty years ago milkmen were gerat-
ly bothered by customers Who demanded
the milk from one COW regularly They
thought this insured a more uniform sam
pie of milk. The idea is now pretty we'll
exploded. Herd milk or milk of all the
cows thoroughly mixed, is safer and more
uniform in the long run than the milk of
any single COW. How the retail trade
! has been upset and turned over during
the past ten years.! No other food has
been so guarded and investigated, We
want the same guard and scrutiny over
other prepared foods. This is the way to
get rid of the frauds and poisons that fill
the market.-Rural New Yorker
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson, while
in Chicago a few days ago, was inter-
viewed in regard to the action of the
Illinois board of live stock. Commission
ers IN regard to testing cows said: 81 do
not approve, either, the slaughter of cows
suspected Of tubercular infection unless
the case develops indisputable symptoms
Of the disease. I sincerely hope that the
Illinois board of live stock commissioners
will not permit the indiscriminate slaugh-
ter of cattle suspectedTef tuberculosis as
1t was carried on in New York state sever
al years ago, to- the detriment of the

Twenty-four out of ID samples of milk
in Indianapolis were found to be poisoned

tive. The vendors of these twenty-four

case of like character will be vigorously

law.-Hoard's Dairyman.

CORN AND OATS.

In corn there has been more strength
than has been evident in that grain for
many weeks. There is an eVergrowing
demand, and nothing to indicate that the
bulls need fear keeping prices up to
their present level. Corn, as a rule, for
lows wheat, but the past week 1t has
seemed to enjoy little Independent boom
of its own, the tendency having been
upward the entire week. There is a con-
fident feeling that may keep corn at its
present altitude for some time to come.
Oats have shared in the Improvement
in the grain market, though, perhaps, to
a lesser extent than wheat or corn. The
market has been fairly active, and a gain
is noted for the week.
STOCKS ARE ACTIVE.
Stocks are again taking on the activity
that prevailed prior to the holiday sea-
son. Traders have returned to the floor,
and dealings, while largely professional,
are not as meager as had been the case
for the summer months. Money is in a
satisfactory condition, and the fear of a
squeeze in that direction having been re-
moved has had much to do with placing
stocks in better attitude. The railroads
are especially strong and active. Bonds
are holding up well.

DAY OF MOURNING
Throughout the Congressional District
Represented by Mr.. Dingley.

lewiston, Me-, Jan. 19.-In the midst
of marked evidences of public and priv
ate mourning the citizens of Maine, in
Guiding the neighbors and life long
friends of the late Representative Ding
ley, engaged in the closing services at
tending the burial of Names honored
congressman. The public service was
held in the Pine Street Congregational
church after prayers at the Dingley
home. The body then was taken to
Oak Hill cemetery in Auburn for inter
ment. Both the cities of Lewiston and
Auburn and, in fact, the entire con-
gressional district which Mr.. Dingley
had represented for Is years gave up
the day to mourning. Little business
was conducted and during the services
and afterwards, as the long procession
passed through the streets, over the
river and up to the quiet cemetery in
Auburn, hush prevailed, broken only
by the tolling of bells.
The floral decorations at the church
were very beautiful The wreath from
President and Mrs. Mckinley occupied
a prominent position.
The entire center of the church was
reserved for invited and distinguished
friends, the forward seats being occu-
pied by the congressional delegation
headed by Senator Hale and Congress-
man Boutelle. Mrs. Dingley was too
much fatigued to attend the public SER
vice. Rev. G. M. Howe pronounced the
eulogy, in which as pastor and friend
he told of the life of Mr.. Ding1ey as he
had known it. At the cemetery, after
a, short prayer, the body was placed in
the receiving tomb.

RAILROAD NEWS.
Millers of Missouri River Points
and Kansas
Are to Secure a Reduction In
Flour Rates.
GULF COMPETITION
Is Forcing the Eastern Roads
to Cut the Rate.
Double Track For Santa Fe
Ottawa Division.

Chicago, Jan. ia material reduc-
ton in the flour rates from points In the
west to the Atlantic seaboard probably
will be made next Monday. Millers at
Missouri river points and in Kansas LOT
some time have been complaining that
the present rates on flour to the sea-
board were excessive, as compared Win
the rates on flour from Minneapolis TO
the east. Lately they have found a
good outlet for their export flour at
reasonable rates via the gulf roads TO
New Orleans and Galveston. ThlS Oh
vision of the business is seriously IeIt
by the eastern roads, which formerly
carried most of this traffic, ana, IN
consequence, the trunk line presidents
are considering the advisabil1ty OF re-
ducing the rate.
The present rate on flour from the
Missouri river to New York is % cents
while the rate on corn is only 10 cents
per 100 pounds. The low rate on corn
is due to the gulf competition, ana, as
the gulf roads now are competing &C
lively for the -four business, the claim
is made that an equally low rate IS
necessary in order to turn the business
back into the former channel. The Hour
rate from Minneapolis to New York is
25 cents and the eastern roads proper
ton on this is only about Is cents. 1t
is. therefore, urged that the rate on
flour from Mississippi river points
should not be higher than 1712 cents
This rate it is believed, will be au-
thorized by the presidents.

DIRECTOR OF POSTS.
F. W. Vaille, of Oregon, Given That
Title in the Philippines.

Washington, Jan. 19.-F w. vaille,
of Oregon, who, on the acquisition of
the Philippine islands, was dispatched
to Manila as United States postal agent
to be in charge there, will shortly be
appointed director of posts for that
archipelago, with functions similar to
those of an assistant postmaster gen
era1 here. He will have complete con-
troll, under the supervision of Postmas-
ter General Charles Emory Smith, of
the administration of the postal affairs
of those islands.
Mr.. Vaille has been in the service as
assistant superintendent of the railway
mail service at Portland, Ore, for nine
years. He is a native of Massachusetts
AS postal agent he has made a strong
record in organizing and extending a
postal scheme there. 1t had been sug-
gested to send a. commission of experts
to the Philippines with a view of max
ing recommendation for the service, but
the postmaster general especially in
view of the small number of offices, de-
cfded against that action as unneces-
sary and will directly entrust the exec
utive responsibility to Mr.. Vaille. The
latter will make constant reports, ad-
vising the administration here of the
postal situation in that portion of the
east.

DENUDING ALASKA.
Forests Being Cut Away for Purpose
of Marketing Timber.

washington, Jan. 19-OmciaI informa-
ton has reached the general land office
OF extensive illegal cutting of timber for
market by natives of Alaska, and Com
missioner Hermann today directed
Special Agent Gruggle, located at Jun
eau, to make a complete investigation
and prompt report with a view to stop
ping the denudation of the forest tracts
The action is based on Agent Gruggle's
own notice to the department that he
found the cutting going on in many
places; that Indians on Annette island.
who are aliens, having been transported
there from British Columbia, are cut
ting valuable spruce and cedar on all
the adjoining islands and ''have estab-
Hshed a saw mill on GraniVa island
near Kechecan, where they are manu-
featuring lumber and CARRYING on ex-
tensiVe traffic"
He was confronted with the cry.
What will the poor Indian do for a liv-
ing if he is stopped by the government
agent from cutting the timber?" and
accordingly asked for definite instruc-
tions. In his instructions Commissioner
Hermann states that neither the ma
tiveS nor other residents of Alaska are
allowed under the law to cut timber for
market from the public lands in Alaska
belonging to the United States, unless
first purchasing the timber from the
government through the secretary of
the interior.
The Indians on Annette island being
aliens, have no right to cut timber nor
to locate beyond the reservation limits

Train of 100 Cars.

Pittsburg, Kan, Jan. 19.-One of the
longest and heaviest trains that ever
passed over the Frisco was in charge
of Conductor Niche and Engineer Lof-
tus with engine 273 yesterday. 1t con-
tanned a string of one hundred empty
coal cars from Carl Junction to Weir
City. The string was two-thirdS of a
mile long, and residents along the route
ran out to see if the entire Frisco rail-
road was being pulled out by the roots.
When the engine stopped for the Mis-
souri, Pacific crossing the Broadway
crossing was blocked, and the load for
the engine can be estimated when it is
known that the estimate of 100 empty
coal cars equals a train of sixty loaded.

NO TIME FOR THEM.
Legislature Delays the Printing of
Railroad Commissioners Reports.

The annual report of the state board
of railroad commissioners has not yet
been published. The report is for the
year ending June 80, and it is the usual
custom to issue it in December of each
year. 1t cannot be issued earlier than
that because the railroads have to be
given time to check up on their business
and make their annual statements to
the board, and it is frequently the first
of December before all the roads get
their reports in. This year the roads
were later than usual, and the clerks
of the board worked night and day dur
ing December getting the report COM
piled, and it was completed just about
the time the special session was con-
vened.
The force in the state printing office
had to work night and day to keep up
with the legislature, and had no time
to print reports. No sooner had the
special session adjourned than the reg
ular session convened, and now the
state printer has more work than ever.
The present board is anxious to get
the report out before the new admins
tration relieves them of their jobs, 50
that they can read their own proof but
it looks now as though the report will
not be printed till the legislature ad-
jOurnS.

$4,000 MEN NEEDED
For Years to Preserve Order in
Cuba According to Gen.
eral Wood.

Washington, Jan. 19.-Gen. Leonard
Wood, military commander of the de-
partment of Santiago, was before the
senate committee on military affairs.
He gave a detailed account of his OPP
erations in the province and in the city
of Santiago, and also gave mis- estimate
of the military force necessary to main
tain order in the islands. On the latter
point he expressed the opinion that for
some time the $500 men now in the
province of Santiago should be con-
tinued, but that after a time 5000 would
be sufficient for the service. He con-
sidered, however, that a military force
would be necessary to the maintenance
of order for some years, and said 1T
should be sufficient to effectually and
quickly check any trouble oefore IL
piled to the islands as whole, and he
thought as many as $4,000 troops should
be stationed throughout Cuba
With proper precautlon ana tact ne
did not anticipate trouble, and he be-
lieved that the insurgent forces would
rapidly disintegrate in all parts OF the
island. Santiago had been great
stronghold of the Cuban insurgents I'M
Ger Garcia, but they had now practi-
cally disbanded. Outlining his mode of
governing the province, he SAID ne had
made no appointments to office except
upon the recommendation of CubanS,
and that he had in all cases put them
upon their honor in making such rec
concentrations. He had shown abso-
lutte trust in them in all matters, going
among them always unarmed and leav-
ing the books of the administration al
ways open to their inspection. He had
Cubans in all departments, and his pri-
vate secretary had at one time been a
member of Gomez's staff. Thus they
had always knew how their money had
been expended, and knew just what he
was doing as their governor.
General Wood said that his first eff
fort had been to encourage the people
OF all the towns to establish self-gov-
eminent, and he had been especially
Jealous in having them select their own
officers, open schools and establish
courts, build roads, etc, and in cases
where they did not have the money for
these purposes he had aided them by
making contributions from the general
fund. This system was entirely differ
e1t from the old one under Spanish rule.
when all the collections were forwarded
to Havana and never came back, only

voted to local uses. He had found the
people especially Jealous of their rights

The profound and comprehensive in
vestigation of Prof. Edward E. Phelps,
the discoverer of Paines celery COM
pound, have robbed disease of much of
it's alarming character.
Nature has provided in the liver
safeguard without which every one
would die from the slightest impru-
dence in diet. The blood loaded with
poisons reaches the liver, the excreting
function of that organ arrests them and
they are thrown back to the bowels.
This is the action of the healthy liver,
but this perpetual overwork at last does
what over-functional activity does for
other organs-impairs or destroys their
excreting power and opens the door to
Brights disease and diabetes. Paine's
celery compound enables the liver to
work without tearing itself to pieces. 1t
supplies nervous energy to the organ
and prevents irritation It purifies the
blood and does not leave the whole pur-
flying task to one organ, whether liver,
kidney or bowels. 1t obviateS the col
lapse of any one of these organs, and
prevents disease.
It not only regulates the nervous Or
ganization, but directly nourishes it;
sends more and better blood to supply
the wasted nervous tissues and takes
the killing strain from the kidneys.
When pains appear in different parts
