METAL.

NEW YORK, October 20.-The mar
ket for metals was weak and lower to-
day with business confined to discour-
agingly small amounts. The news from
outside markets proved disappointing
but the unsatisfactory condition of the
market here was due more to the in
difference of buyers and less optimistic
views of sellers than to anything else.

Hats are wired into the most artistic
shapes this season and are covered
with fancy braids made of chenille and
satin. High crowns are much worn
and are so original in design that it re-
quires only little trimming to deco
rate them. Bows Of velvet ribbon,
bands of fur, rosettes Of chiffon, bird
wings and aigrettes are the standards
par excellence in trimmings, and are
associated with the daintiest and most

StocksThe point Of greatest interest

a record price. The motive was the
official confirmation of the merger for
the Pullman and Wagner palace car
companies which the stock tape has
clearly foreshadowed for some time
past. The published assertion that the
Vanderbilts are to get the Pullman
holdings of Boston & Albany, and Bos-
ton & Maine stock as an incident to the
deal, and that New York Central would
thus gain control of New England rail-
road affairs, gave the bulls an oppor-
tunity for an active speculation in New
York Central. They lifted the price OF
that stock an extreme 3%. The infiu-
ence of this movement on the rest OF the
list was marked, the other Vanderbilt
stocks of course moving most closely in
sympathy. The bears covered heavily

The hesitation which had been caused
earlier in the day by marked weakness
of the Glucose stocks and by sympathy
of other industrials was overcome by
the strength of Pullman and New YORK
Central and prices of the railroads rose
quite generally above last nights level
The easing of the rate for sterling ex-
change encouraged the rise, but 1t gave
way to profit taking in the last hour
when the preliminary estimates OIL the
movement of money for the week APP
peared and the rate for call money
stiffened to per cent. The most active
stocks reacted point, and IN Pullman
the reaction extended to nearly points.
There was some rally before the close,
which was firm and at small net galns
for most stocks. The strength OF the
market, however, was not widely dis
tributed and in fact was almost wholly
confined to the few most active stocks

the outgo of money to the interior has
been heavy. The weeks shipments by
some large banks have been the largest
of the season. The net result is estl-
mated by experts at loss in cash by
the banks of nearly 100000. The cas-
ing of the exchange rate in spite of
slight hardening in the London rate
discount was significant. The threat
ened outgo of gold to London may be
averted, but it will be because of a
higher money rate here. Interior rates
for New York exchange show no cessa-

A grain of sand in the eye can cause ex-
circulating agony. A grain of pepper in
place of the grain of sand intensifies the
torment. The pain is not confined to the
organs affected The whole body feels
the shock of that little irritating particle.
1t is so when there is any arrangement or
disorder of the delicate womanly organs.
The disorder may seem trivial but the
whole body feels it. The nervous system
is disordered There are fretfulness, IT.
ritability, sullenness and depression of
spirits. The general health of women
depends on the local health of the organs
peculiarly feminine. Remove the drains,
alterations, bearing down pains, and
other affections of woman, and the whole
body feels the benefit. DR. Pierce's Fav-
orite Prescription is a specific for the dis
eases that undermine the strength of wo-
men. It is free from opium, cocaine and
other narcotics, poisons which enter into
many other preparations for woman's USE
1t makes weak women strong and sick
women well.
