Sacramento. Cal, March 16.-The

current resolution calling for adjourn
ment at midnight, March Is. This

Three ballots were taken today, the

country to Cainti, a. well-defended vii
lage of 700 inhabitants five miles north
west of the foothills. The troops first
encountered the rebel outposts in the
dense jungle on the banks of the river.
The enemy was dislodged, after half
an hours fighting. The Americans ad-
vanced in splendid manner under
heavy fire, until ready to volley the
rebels from the trenches The latter
lad a great advantage and dropped a
number of our men. The Americans
charged across the rice fields, making
four advances on the enemy, who num-
bered 1000 men, 500 of whom were en-
trenched, and in the face of a cross
fire. Our troops carried the town, after
four hours fighting, and burned the
outskirts, the rebels firing from the
windows and keeping UP a running fire

UINTAH INDIAN TROUBLE.
McKinley's Friend Harper Coming
Back to Settle It.
Especial to The Herald.)

Especial to The Herald.)
Washington, D. c., March 16.-Assist-
ant Commissioner of Indian Affairs S.
c. Tonner said today that the White
River Ute trouble was a serious prob
lem for the department, but that he
had no doubt it would be settled ami
cably.
1t is the purpose of the Indian office
to send. an agent to Utah in q. short
time. Erastus r. Harper, recently ap-
pointed allotting agent, viii be the man.
He is from Canton, O., and personal
friend of the president. He was a
member of the Ute commission, which
recently failed to secure "a cession of
the Uintah reservation, and is selected
on account of his familiarity with the
situation.
Indian Office officials are inclined to
admit that the Indians have a just
grievance. They say the Indians have
an undoubted right to hunt on their old
lands in Colorado, and that promises
of reimbursement for the lands, which
have not been filed, have probably led
to the present disturbances.
Wyoming postmasters appointed to-
day: Ferris, Carbon county, William
Fenley, vice Mrs. Jane Granger, re-
signed; Ten Sleep, Big Horn county,

The times., 1899-03-21

Yesterdays stock market was full of re-
markable matters and of surprises. There
was at times a tremendous strength with
great advances in prices which suggested
heavy buying by the public and the in
siders. The street draws the conclusion
from the movements Of the day that the
market is very near good advance, and
that 1t is safe to buy good stocks on
any break. 1t was very hard to get prices
down in the standard stocks, even under
such adverse circumstances as high money
and a break in Sugar, and on the other
hand with the slightest impetus the gran
gers and many other securities seemed
willing to advance. The history of the day
was interesting. Sugar and Brooklyn
Rapid Transit both opened up six or eight
points from Saturdays closing and during
the early trading were both strong. Under
their lead and with the spur of the good
closing last Saturday the general list was
also high at the opening. Later there was
a tremendous selling of Sugar and II broke
IS points to below the lowest price of
Saturday. 1t was feared that this, with
the stiffened money rates, at one time 8
per cent bid, would break the entire list,
but the close showed a net gain in most
stocks nevertheless.
Sugar was the feature of the day. with an
opening at $50 to III, a high point of 1872.
and at the close 4 break to 1874. The
strength In the morning hours is ascribed
entirely to inside manipulation. AS to
the break in the afternoon the general
theory is that the inside support was with
drawn. and that the banks Disseminated
against the stock in lending money. In
curious contrast with the action OF Sugar
was the movement of Brooklyn Rapid
Transit for the day. Its. opening was sim
liar to that in Sugar. From close on
Saturday at 103 7-s the advance over Sun
day was to Jog to 40, the opening price
yesterday. Brooklyn however. after its
pyrotechnic advance, broke only four
points. when Sugar went off is points
and money climbed to . per cent. The
lowest price of the day was 105. and at
the close the stock advanced to JOG is.

BLEEDING PILES

And all other forms of this common and
often dangerous disease readily cured with
out pain or inconvenience.
Thousands of men and women are af1l CT
ed with some sort of piles. without either
knowing the exact nature of the trouble,
or knowing 1t, are careless enough to alloy
it to run without taking the simple means
offered for a radical cure.
The failure of salves and ointments to
permanently cure piles has led many to be
lieve the only cure TO be a surgical op-
Grafton.
Surgical operations are dangerous TO fe,
and, moreover, not often entirely success
full, and at this time are no longer used by
the best physicians or recommended by
them.
The safest and surest way to cure any
case of piles, whether blind, bleeding or
protruding, is to use the Pyramid Pile
cure, composed of healing vegetable oils,
and absolutely free from mineral poisons
and opiates. The following letter from a
Pittsburg gentleman, a severe sufferer from
bleeding piles, gives some idea of the
prompt effectual character of this pile cure.
He writes:
/ take pleasure writing these few lines
to let you know that l did not sleep for
three months except for a short time each
night because of bad case of bleeding
piles. l was down in bed and the doctors
did me no good. \ good brother told me
of the Pyramid Pile Cure, and l bought
from my druggist three fifty cent boxes.
They cured me and l viii soon be alb e to
go TO my work again.

below Butter St, PittsbIrg. Pa.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is not only the
safest and surest remedy for piles, but Is
the best known and most popular. Every
physician and druggist in the county
knows 1t. and what it will do.
Send to Pyramid Co.. Marshall Mich.
for little book on cause and cure of piles,
describing all forms of piles and the proper
treatment.
The Pyramid can be found at all drug
stores at 90 cents per package.

ST Joseph is the patron saint Of the Home

but the delighted chiidlike aneients knew

beauty and buttered their bread and carved

Once every year, on the day devoted to
ST. Joseph, the inmates of the Home for
the Aged are given gala dinner. This
dinner is the result OF the contributions

New York, March 20.-In so far as active
speculative interest was concerned, it may
be said that Sugar again engaged the
bulk of attention in the days stock market
Notwithstanding the overshadowing posi-
tion of the stock in the days dealings,
the market was by no means wanting in
other features of interest. In some respects
the market was the strongest since Janu-
ary last. There was marked revival of
interest in the standard class of stocks,
and commission houses reported measur-
able increase in outside operations in the
market.
Foreign exchange was also steady. The
exposition of the general money and for
eign exchange situation as effected by the
payment of the s20,000,000 indemnity to
Spain by this Government, which appeared
in this column on Saturday attracted much
attention. Trustworthy authorities in the
foreign exchange market estimated that
should the necessary operation in the ex-
change market be undertaken at once and
properly conducted the whole amount Of
the indemnity could be placed to Spain's
credit in London, within three weeks,
without advancing the rates for sight
bills more than one cent in the
pound above the current level. Wall
Streets interest in tho transaction, how
ever, is chiefly as to the effect upon the
local money market of the injection of
$40. 1000, 900 of new capital.
There were noteworthy advances during
the day in Brooklyn Rapid Transit Cen.

The gains in all of these cases were shad-

cause of the violent break in Sugar, which
had the effect of inducing liquidation else
where, just as the advance in the stock
last week started a general covering move
