In the spring the birds are singing
As they build their summer home
Blades Of grass and buds are sprimgine,
O'er the mead the cattle roam
In the spring your blood ia freighted
With the germs that cause disease,
llmurs, hoils, are designated
Signals warning You of these
In the spring that tired feeling
Makes you every duty shirle,
Makes ven feel like begging, stealing,
Rather than engage in work
But there's something known that will a
Man to health and vigor lead
lou will find Hoods Sarsaparlla
Just exactly what You need

Liquidation and the Rank Loans.

The money market was interesting. The

street prophets circulated all kinds Of bad
stories regarding the probable bank state

dict that the surplus reserve would be-
come minus quantity. One fact seemed
to be lost sight Of in the general preva-
lence OF pessimistic feeling The recent
Liquidation has been large and there is
reason to believe that IL has reduced the
loan accounts Of the banks materially.
This may give the statement better

Canadian Southern Dividend.

One other piece Of real news helped the
market yesterday afternoon. The early
announcement regarding the Vanderbilt
meetings was that none Of the dividend
rates had been changed. Later in the day
the statement was published that the
rate on Canada Southern had been ad-
vanced from l to ! y per cent semi -annu-
ally. The rate paid heretofore for two or
three years has been per cent per an
uum. The advance is another Of the eyi-
donccs of substantial prosperity that have
been so frequent in the past year. and
which, as a matter Of fact, will make the
year 1901 conspicuous in railway history.

The action OF the Vanderbilt people had
no surprises in other directions. The talk
of the probable increase in the New York

regular dividend rate only on that stock

hardly to be warranted by the situation
The money market must still be consid-

there Is no reason to expect an acute
stringency, and after the beginning OF The

an abundance of funds. Conservative opin-
ion refuses to take the extreme view that

More Lawson "views.D

Mr.. Lawson paid for two-column ad-
yertiscmcnt in the New York papers yes
terday morning reiterating his views re-
garding tie Amalgamated Copper situ-
alton. or at least his views for publica-
ton. He said that the copper business
is all right and that the smash in the
price of Amalgamated has been for the
purpose OF getting small and large hold
ers of the stock out. II they are not in the
Standard OIL party-in other words,
frecze-out. He said further that he has
been buying an immense amount OF the
stock for cash for clients at the pre-
yaiing low price.
II may be taken for granted that the
street generally believes that the Stand
ard oil party is trying to get complete
control OF the stock. This IS a reasonable
supposi;ion. The question on which Opln-
ion splits is as TO how far the price
viii be tumblcd in order to accomplish
this purpose II the bottom had been
reached perhaps Mr.. Lawson has been
telling the truth all the time, ana per-
haps now he is really giving sincere ad-
vice when he tells people to buy the
stock. II. however the Standard oil party
expects to see the price Is or 20 points
lower there might be Teasonableness in
the suggestion that Mr.. Lawson has been
working as a Standard OIL broker from
the beginning despite all his bull talk,

The Vanderbilt securities were among
the weakest yesterday morning, Central

in the day they rallied sharply.
