Downs Elixir on going to bed at night
and small doses during the day will cure
the most severe cough. Whenever there
is tickling sensation in the throat take
a few drops of the Elixir on the tongue
and let II run slowly down the throat
and immediate relief will follow. We,
the undersigned. druggists. agree to re-
fund the money II 1t docs not cure any
cough, cold, whooping cough or throat

PRINCE & wHITELY's REVIEW.

or the Features of the Stock Market.
| The favorable news from South At
RIGA which stimulated the London and
| continental markets had only a pass
ing effect on home securities market,
| the absorbing feature remaining the
difficulties in which the Third avenue
traction finds itself and the approach
ing date when the Sugar Trust is to
declare its dividend. While, as we have
remarked BEFORE these, conditions
should not under ordinary circumstan-
ces affect the general railway list, but
as they tend to disturb loans in finan-
cial institutions they indirectly do af-
feet all stocks. We think, that once the
dealings in these unsavory properties
be it either through their going into
the hands of a receiver or otherwise
coming to an untimely end, the rail-
roads and such ether properties as
have not been under the control of vii
ainous politicians, will sell higher and
more in accordance with their true mer-
it's. London and the continental
bourses closed strong at best prices of
the day. Foreign exchange did not
change much either in tone or rates;
actual 1895 and 1868. Money on call
unchanged but was more firmly held
on time, Az per cent. being freely bid.
Eastbound tonnage was 154,670 tons
against the unprecedentedly large one
of last week of 212,312 tons The United
States Leather company declared divi-
dends of TX per cent. on the preferred
stock. Wheat had better undertone
to-day, prices closed IL cent higher. Re-
ceipts in Northwest are decreasing and
1t seems ito us that at present prices
the article deserves attention. Cot
ton continues strong in every position,
and sooner or later this must show it.
self in an advance of prices which at
this moment nobody dares to express in
figures. The stock market, with the ex-
ception of traction and industrial is
sues had a firm undertone. 1t is only
natural that the public at large should
abstain from becoming interested as
long as the disturbing factors are
market leaders and are being used as
the football of speculation. Towards
the close rumor has it that receiver
was appointed for the Third avenue
traction and without further comment
we hope this is true. The market closes
with a good undertone for the good or
standard properties. Silver exports to-
morrow $4,000 ounces. Total sales $685. |

The Meriden polo team was an easy
mark for the Blues last night. Barring
the first period, when they put up a
stubborn defense, the visitors were
simply not in it. the home team playing
all around them. McGilvray and Rus
sells plays were broken to pieces by
Caravan and Whipple, the latter espec-
tally doing good work at critical per-
iods. Whipple was also responsible for
two of the goals which were gained by
long drives sent in by the popular half
back, both of which went the whole
length of the rink. Neither Jeans or
Timothy Hayes showed up to their
usual standard Bone and Warner being
able to get around them at will. Bur-
CESS put up his usual steady game, and
was hardly responsible for the large to-
tai rolled up against him as he received
very poor backing from the men in
front Of him. The whole team of the
Blues played very brilliant game.

The Virginlan-P Pilot in furtherance of
candidates and leaders Of the Demo-
cratic party to express themselves on
the subject of revision of the State
Constitution continued its interviews
yesterday.
The first man seen was Mr. John
Lawler, City Sergeant. Mr.. Lawler ia
vors the proposed Constitutional Con-
vention and was emphatic in the state
ment that the people should decide on
any changes that the convention may
deem desirable. Mr.. Lawler thinks
that the tidewater section should he
alert in the convention in order that
the great interests peculiar to the tide
water section may not be endangered by
the ill1advised action of representa-
tives from other sections of the State,
who may not be inclined to take IL
broad and fair View of the conditions
and needs of the tidewater section.

next. He expressed himself as strongly
In favor of u Constitutional Conven-
ton, revision OF the State Constitution
and submission OF the recommendations
OF the convention to the people for
their approval or rejection. He also
strongly declared himself in favor of
cleaning up the registration books and
purging them of persons who have died
or been convicted of crimes named i'm
our laws governing registration.
COL. GEORGE MINToSH.
When Mr.. George Mcintosh was In
terviewed he spoke in no uncertain
tone. but came directly to the point and
said that he is strongly in favor of n
Constitutional Conventions; that 1t
should be Il party issue and that the
results of the convention should be
submitted to the people for them to
accept or reject.
MIR. LEONARD KNAPP.
Mr.. Leonard Knapp, a member of the
Democratic City Executive Committee
from the Third ward. was seen. He
said he is heartily in favor of the Con-
stitutional Convention and the submits
sion of its work to the people for their
approval or rejection. He said that he
is much interested in the matter and
has recently called it TO the attention
of leaders OF organized labor In Nor
folk with the request that they place
the matter before the various local
in ofdef+to-ebtain their
hearty and united support. He desired
