(By the Associated Press.)

New York, Sept. 2S.-The dry goods
market today showed no change in either
cotton or wooden goods. The general de-
mand has been quiet in both. The tone
of cotton goods market continues strong
but no further advance in prices report
ed in either staple or fancy lines. Bust
ness in linens shows some improvement
and market firmer for both pure linen
tending against buyers.
COTTON.
New York, Sept 28.-The cotton mar
ket today was a comparatively narrow
one, traders being cautious owing to alb
normal conditions. The English advices
as whole, were better than expected;
the Liverpool break of 80 points on Sep
TENDER was less considered than the ad-
vance there on the late positions.
Our market opened steady with prices
one point lower to two points higher and
further advanced ten to thirteen points
on covering which became a feature fol-
lowing private cables asserting that the
Manchester mills were about to resume.
There was also some buying for new long
accounts. September was particularly
strong on covering by shorts. The selling
was largely by exporters against pur-
chases in the South. There was nc par
ticular energy to speculation, as the
movement continued heavy and spot buy
ers showed no particular interest. The
exceptionally small stock here checked
local selling on the large movement and
generally favorable weather for pickin &
cotton. The local contingent manifested
hesitation in view of the fact that the
New York market was lower than any
other, particularly out of stock and fac
ing an enormous October short interest.
Room sentiment was, if anything, bull
ish. The local shorts were trying to
buy in their October contracts while sell
ing March.
The market was finally steady at a net
advance of from seven to nine points.

PLAIN TALK.
To Catarrh Sufferers.

Every person suffering from catarrh
in it's many forms, knows that the COM
mon lotions, salves and douches do not
cure. 1t is needless to argue this point
or to cite cases of failure, because every
victim of catarrhal trouble knows it for
himself if he has tried them.
A local application, if it does anything
at ALL simply gives temporary relief; a
wash, lotion, salve or powder cannot
reach the seat of the disease which is
the blood.
The mucuous membrane seeks to re-
lifieve the blood of catarrhal poison by
seereting large quantities of mucus, the
discharge sometimes closing up the nos
trils descending to the throat and larynx,
causing an irritating cough, continual
clearing of the throat, deafness, indiges-
ton and many other disagreeable and
persistent symptoms.
A remedy to really cure catarrh must
be an internal treatment; a remedy
which will gradually cleanse the system
from catarrhal poison and remove the
fever and congestion always present in
the mucous membrane.
The best remedies for this purpose are
Sucalyptol, Sanguinaria and Hydrastin
Dul LHc ulLHCulIy has always De0H 10 get
these valuable curatives combined in one
palatable, convenient and efficient form.
Recently this has been accomplished
and the preparation put on the market
under the name of Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets; they are large pleasant tasting
lozenges, so that they may be slowly dis
solved in the mouth, thus reaching every
part of the mucous membrane and finally
the stomach and intestines.
An advantage to be considered also is
that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain no
cocaine, morphine or poisonous narcotics,
so often found in catarrh powders, and
the use of which often entails a habit
more dangerous than the disease.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold by
druggists at so cts, for full sized package
and are probably the safest and most
effectual catarrh cure on the market

manned until he was compelled to give

he was at his old home During Dr.
Wright's pastorate here he worked hard
and succeeded in making the mem
bers of his church labor to save the
unsaved; to induce others to attend

real pleasure in the services of the sanct-
uafy and in Christian work. His men,
bers always found joy in contemplating

several noted sermons here, one on
Some Phases of the Modern Dance, :"
which was delivered few days after a
big german given by the young people of
Reidsville. The proprietors of the Reds
vile Review printed this sermon, and
as there was such a demand for copies
of the paper from all parts of the United
States the sermon was printed in book
form and scattered over the universe.
Mr.. Wright was one of the leading min
listers of the South. He will be sadly
missed.
The colored Methodist conference will
be in session in Reidsville next month.
DR.. j. @. Adams will soon begin pro-
tracted meeting at the First Baptist

ILLINOIS IS DOUBTFUL.
Republican Poll Indicates That Bryan Will
Garry Chicago.

Especial Dispatch to the Baltimore SIM !
New York, Sept 2S.-Illinois has no.
come even more doubtful than Indiana
This development Of the campaign was
contained in the news received at Re-
nublican National headquarters today.
A poll of the State, taken for the pur-
nose of arriving at the exact situation
has shown the Republican leaders that
while Mckinley is holding his strength
in the rural districts, Bryan is making
decided gains in the cities. 1t is well
known that the Republicans are weak in
Chicago because of the strike of the
building trades unions there. The can
vass of the State indicates forcibly that
the Republican majority outside of Chi
cago may be insufficient to overcome the
Democratic majority in that municipality
Senator Hanna, during his "trip to the
West. tried to stop the strike, but did
not succeed in doing so. Illinois has
hitherto been counted by Hanna among
the certain Republican States, and the
result of the poll have had a decidedly
chilling effect upon the campaign man
ayers.

will they promise in order to win this
years victory?
Before now we have had corrupt
men in politics, but Mark Hanna has

More Ruin.

According to the Bryanite walters.
the United States are impoverished
and on the way to ruin by the gold
standard and the trusts. Half of the
British war loan has just been taken
by this impoverished and ruined coun-
try, which would have gobbled the
whole of it If it could have got it
This impoverished and ruined coun-
try has so much money to invest that
even in the present unparalleled eX
pansion of business, it can't find ways
enough at home of sailing down its
profits. 1t has money to lend to Eng
land, as it had money to lend to Rus
sia; and it may soon be drawing inter-
est from all over the world.
The farmers can't get men enough to
harvest their crops. The railroads
can't get cars enough to carry the
freight. The savings banks are so
swamped with deposits that they don't
know where to invest them. Yet the
Bryan spouters of lamentation are sure
that the country is being impoverished
and ruined by the gold standard and
the trusts and is about to be wrecked
totally by Imperialism.
If this is ruin, the American people
would like to be ruined every year.
