LONDON IN DENSE FOG
Shipping Delayed and Bush
ness Generally Hindered.
EVEN PEDESTRIANS WERE IN DANGER
Half of the United Kingdom En-
vcIoped In II Pail So Thick That
Travelling Was Extreme
" Uncertain.

LONDON, Nov. "a fog such as
years enveloped London and half of
the United Kingdom yesterday, block
aiding shipping, deranging railways
and throwing business in London, Bir-
mingham and other provincial cities
into confusion.
So dense was it that Il walk into the
streets was an adventure. The fog
descended upon the metropolis and the
suburbs so thckly that between and
o'clock in the afternoon the principal
avenues of traffic resembled the steam
room of Turkish bath.
Hundreds of thousands of London's
suburban population vainly endeavor-
ed to gropc their way to the railway
stations. The few who succeeded
found the trains all stalled.
Around Trafalgar square and the
houses of parliament scenes unparal-
leled for years were witnessed. Hun
drcds of omnibuscs. cabs, carts and
wagons formed an ineXtricable and
immovabe mass. The mounted po-
lice in trying TO clear away the jam
got lost themselves. Many vehicles
were in collision. The drivers. not
knowing where they were, stood at the
heads of their horses patiently await
ing the lifting of the premature dark
ness.
Lanterns were at premium. News
boys transformed their papers into
temporary torches. Highwaymcn pur-
sued their vocation. Casualties We're
frequent. and even hardened London
ers freely expressed a dread of the
continuation of such fogs, which yes
terday reached climax.
If the fog had not lifted somewhat
toward night, London would have been
so congested that its housing resources,
commodious as they are, would have
been taxed beyond their limits by the
forced accommodation of the fogbound
suburbanitcs.
Among children and old people the
deleterious effects of such a continu-
Gus and exceptional fog can scarcely
be estimated.
Several theaters were obliged to
close for the evening on account of
the fog.
In addition to the outrage at the
Remington branch of the London and
Southwestern bank, which occurred at
o'clock p. M, when the fog was
densest. several small street rObberies
have been reported, many victims be-
ing stunned by sandbags.
Two express trains had narrow es-
capes from serious collision.

Grain Elevators Burned.

has destroyed two large adjoining
grain elevators owned by the BOtsford
Elevator company here, entailing a
loss of 100000. There were 171,O00
bushels of wheat. 10000 bushels of
corn and 1900 bushels of oats in the
buildings, and the grain was all de-
stroyed. The loss on the buildings is
estimated at $l25, 900, with $4,000 in
surance, and $4,000 on the grain.
The grain was fully insured. The

VERMONT TRADE REPORT.

During Last Week.

Bradstreet Tells of Conditions Prevailing
During Last Week.
General business conditions through
out the state remain practically un-
changed, and outside of certain lines OF
retail trade the situation is gratifying.
The continued warm weather has been
unfavorable for retailing in general, par
ticularly for those goods which are sea-
sonable; otherwise the weather condi-
tions have been most favorable and OPP
portunity is afforded to finish contracts
which require open weather. Labor con-
tinues in demand.
Business in Burlington is active, man
ufacturing establishments are busy and
the wholesale business maintains its
usual volume. The retail trade requires
lower temperature and business In these
lines Is curtailed in equence OF the
warm and somewhat unreasonable
weather; collections fair to good. There
seems to be some what of a falling of in
orders for granite work at Barre. This
Is usual at this time of year, as orders for
spring work do not come in largely until
few weeks later; but on the whole bu-
siness is good and manufacturing con-
Germs are busy, retail trade fair and col
lections as usual. Business is good at
Montpelier and no complaints heard as
to payments. There appears to be a
good apple crop at Wells River, from
which point quite large shipments are
expected at good figures; trade condi-
tions at that point are normal. Manu-
featuring interests are well employed at
Richford; retail trade is good, collections
fair and general business conditions IA
vorable. From Rutland comes the re-
port that the manufacturing concerns
never had more to do; retail trade is
good, collections fair, and excellent pros
poets for continuation of business ac-
tivity. Help is scarce at ST. Albans,
retail trade fair, with collections and
general conditions satisfactory. Manu-
featuring interests are active at Bellows
Falls; labor is well employed, retail
trade good and collections fair. In Brat
tleboro 1t is reported that manufacturing
interests are busy, but retail trade quiet,
owing largely to unreasonable weather :;
collections good. Springfield manufac-
turers are busy, retail trade and collec-
tons satisfactory, and an improvement
is noted in conditions generally. Busne SIS
at Newport said to be about normal.

But if we went behind the vweak heart
we should find "weak" stomach, prob

careless eating at irregular hours.
When the stomach is diseased the
organs depending on the stomach for
nutrition are starved. Starvation means
weakness of the body and its organs.

cures diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition. When
these organs are cured, diseases of heart,
