RAILS IN BETTER DEMAND

London, December s-The outlook on the stock exchange was somewhat brighter during the past week owing to the message from President Roosevelt, the speech of the Prince of Wales and the unexpectedly heavy captures in South Africa These later on helped the market for foreign shares and Kaffirs rose slightly or the prospect of a sure enough close in South African hostilities.
 Money was none too plentiful, but kept within easy reach at not exorbitant rates. It Is thought the situation, com bined with the present low price of stocks, will stimulate both investment and speculative business.
 American securities were lethargic in Home rails had a brighter outlook on improved traffic reports and the promises of the directors to increase economies, as we'll as the efficiency of the roads during the coming year.
 The silver situation is still critical, al- though silver has recovered slightly from it's lowest quotations. The future of silver IS said to derend entirely upon whether the United States refrain from pressing further sales.
 Consols strengthened considerably dur ing the week on the report that the next go, errment loan would take the shape of Transvaal per cents, guaranteed by the British government

MANCHESTER FEELS
 LACK OF COTTON
CLOTH MARKET WAS UNSETTLED DURING THE PAST WEEk-DI. VERSITY OF OPINION CONCERN ING THE COTTON POSITION.

Manchester, December 8.-The cloth market was unsettled during the past week owing to the lack of American cot ton in the market. There has been con- siderable discussion concerning the cot ton position, and much diversity of opin- ion. The bulls think the crop will not exceed 100000 bales, while the bears firmly belive it will amount to 10,5O0, 900 bales. It is worthy of notice that the stock of American cotton at Liverpool and the quantity afloat of all kinds ex- ceed the records for the same period of 1900 by 45,O00 bales and 6S,O0O bales re- spectively.
 The demand for cloth from China was small and mainly restricted to sorting up. The Indian demand was irregular Offers were fairly numerous but the limits were usually unacceptable being accentueted by the advance in cotton
 A fair quantity of light print and bleached cloths were taken by the out side public. The markets of the Levant and south America were inactive; there was a willingness to buy at the price, but traders were reluctant to follow the advance.
 It is stated however, that the Brazil ian trade is more hopeful. The position of yarns was strong. Spinners refused to do business except on the full advance of cotton, and buyers rarely obtained a re- duction.

MISCHIEF MAKER.
A Surprise on Brooklyn.

An adults food that can save a baby proves itself to be nourishing and esaily digested and good for big and little folks A Brooklyn man says: When baby was about eleven months old be began to grow thin and pale. This was, at first, attri- buted to the heat and the fact that his teeth were coming, but, in reality, the poor little thing was starving his moth CTS milk not being sufficient nourishment.
 One day after he had cried bitterly for an hour, I suggested that my wife try him on Grape-Nuts. She soaked two teaspoonfuls in a saucer with a little sugar and warm milk. This baby ate so ravenously that she fixed a second which he likewise finished. It was not many days before he forgot all about being nursed, and has since lived almost ex- clusively on Grape-Nuts. Today the boy is strong and robust, and as cute mis- chief-maker as thirteen months old baby is expected to be.
 We have put before him other foods. but he will have none of them, evidently prefering to stick to that which did him so much good in his time of need-his old friend Grape-Nuts.
 Use this letter any way you wish, for my wife and I can never praise Grape Nuts enough after the brightness 1t has brought to our household These state ments can be verified by anyone who wishes to make visit to our home"
 F. F. McElroy, 256 So. srd St. Brooklyn, N. Y.
 Grape-Nuts is not made for baby food, but experience with thousands of babies show it to be among the best, if not en- tirely the best in use. Being a scientific preparation of Natur's grains, 1t is eaual- iy effective as a body and grain builder for grown-ups.

 NEGRO DESERTER David Fagin, Twenty-fourth h.
 fantry, 0ecapitated WAS AN INSURGENT LEADER On His Finger Was the Glass Ring of Lieutenant Frederick Alt
 staetter of the , Engineers.
WAS AN lNSURGENT I LEADER

Manila, December S.-Native scouts from Bengabon. province of Nueva Ec- ija, have killed the American negro, Da- vid Fagin, a deserter from the Twenty fourth (colored) infantry, who for more than two years has been leading Fili- pinos against the American troops.
 The native scouts decapitated their prisoner The mans head. however, was recognized as that of Fagin's. They also secured his commission in the insurgent army.
 Fagin had on one of his fingers the class ring of Lieut.. Frederick W. Alt staetter of the engineers, who was cap tured by Filipinos. supposedly under the command of Fagin himself, October 2S, 1900. Fagin has been reported killed upon several occasions. The authorities are death were erroneous and that he has now been killed.
 A military commission has sentences the Filipino general. Isidore Torres, to be hanged after finding him guilty of ordering the assassination of Corporal Fieldner of the Twelfth infantry at Ma lolos. province of Bulucan, last October. The sentence of the commission has been disapproved. by General Chaffee, who finds that the commission had reason able grounds to doubt whether General Torres personally ordered the assassina- ton of the American soldier. General Chaffee thinks that the high rank held by Torre in the insurgent army would have been sufficient to prevent such un- military action on his part.
