American Cotton Oil continues very
strong in all the attacks on the market.

The fine increase of earnings made by
the Pan Handle during the month of An
gust and during eight months of the call
endar year and the large surplus after all
charges, figures of which have been given
heretofore made some talk in the street
yesterday. The attorneys of the minority
interest in the stock of the company who
are preparing to fight the Pennsylvania
Railway have held meeting this week for
the discussion of ways and means. 1t is
said that suit will be entered in one of
the Western courts to enjoin the Pennsyl-
vania company from paying out the sur
plus of the Pan Handle in any other way
than as dividends on the stocks.
The Pacific securities in general are
spoken of by careful traders as good pur-
chases at the present low levels.

The stocks most violently affected by the
bear selling and liquidation were Brooklyn
Rapid Transit, Sugar, and American To-
bacco. Brooklyn, which advanced to SO ga
in the morning, declined from that level 70
rs IL. Later heavy short covering carried
the price up again to 80 ga, at which
level there was actual, net advance for
the day. Sugar was sold heavily for both
accounts on the announcement that the
trust and following in the Independent re-
fineries had cut the price of sugar one
eighth Of cent again. 1t went to 40 SIS,
a new low level The close was at 143.
Cuts in the price of sugar. and tumbles in
the price of the stock have a. way of pre-
.ceding violent upward movements, but per-
haps it is not safe to prophesy that such
will be the case this time. Tobacco was
sold down to 122 and regained two points
of its loss. 1t will be seen that in these
three weakest securities the end of the day
was very little worse than the close of
yesterday as a whole.

good deal of foolishness is being talked
and printed regarding the effect of war in
the Transvaal, if there is to be war. 1t is
not reasonable to suppose that American
securities viii be hurt, more than tempo
rarily, in the least by fight between Great
Britain and the little South African State.
The war can be only small one and a
short one at the worst. 1t will offer no rea-
son why Great Britain should sell Ameri-
can securities. already at a low figure, and
certain to advance in price this autumn.
Some short selling may occur and some
liquidation of weakened accounts, out of
fear, but if the war will make any intrinsic
difference in the value of securities it win

PARSNIP COMPLEXION.

1t does not require an expert to detect the
sufferer from kidney trouble. The hollow
cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy
circles under the eyes, the sallow parsnip-
colored complexion indicates it.
A physician would ask if you had rheuma-
tism, dull pain or ache in the back or over
the hips, stomach trouble, desire to urinate
often, or a burning or scalding in passing it :
if after passing there is an unsatisfed feeling
as if it must be at once repeated, or if the
urine has brick dust deposit or strong odor.
When these symptoms are present, no
time should be lost in removing the cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the
bladder, inflammation, causing stoppage, and
sometimes requiring the drawing Of the
urine with instruments, or may run into
Bright's Disease, the most dangerous stage OF
kidney trouble.
DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great dis
covery of the eminent kidney and bladder
specialist, is positive remedy for such dis
eases. Its reputation is worldwide and it is
so easy to get at any drug store that no one
need suffer any length of time for want of it.
However, if you prefer to first test its
wonderful merits, mention EVENING HERALD
and write to DIR. Kilmer & Co.. Binghamton,
N. Y, for sample bottle and book telling all
about it, both sent absolutely free by mail.

OUR BANNER EXPORT YEAR.

For Every Dollar spent Abroad We
Sold Two Dollars Worth.
Washington, April 24.-The fiscal
year of 1898 was the banner year of
the foreign trade of the United States,
our exports being the largest ever re-
corded for a like period and our i'm
ports exceptionally small. According
to a comprehensive report just pre-
pared by Mr.. Frank H. Hitchcock,
chief of the section of foreign mar
kets of the agricultural department, the
total value of our domestic exports
reached the enormous sum of $780,
291, ,913, exceeding the record breaking
figures of the preceding year by $178,-
284 ,310 On the other hand, the i'm
ports during 1898 we're the smallest
since 1885, their value being S616, ,049,-
654, a decline of $148, $50, 1853 from the
figures of 1897. Broadly stated, for
every dollars worth of foreign mer-
chandise brought into the United
States two dollars worth of our pro-
ducts found a market abroad. Our
domestic exports as compared with our
imports showed an excess Of 1894 ,242,-
259, or more than twice the excess for
1897, which was the largest previously
reported.
An interesting fact developed by the
report of Mr.. Hitchcock is the increase
in the exports of agricultural products.
being 1898 per cent of the total. or
1888 ,507, ,942, a gain Of nearly 25 per
cent over 1897. Exports of this class
also show a greater gain proportion
