New York, Nov. 1G.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says to-
day: a few months ago injury TO the
corn crop aroused fears that the rail-
roads would be seriously handicapped
by the loss of tonnage, yet the season
of grain traffic has not only failed to
produce decreased earnings, but there
is such n scarcity of rolling stock and
motive power that numerous indus
tries are badly demoraliZed. Railway
earnings in October were lib per cent.
greater than last year and 21-2 per
cent over 1899, while those roads re-
porting for the first week of November
show an average gain of 9.S per cent.
\ healthy demand is reported through
out the country I'm all leading lines of
merchandise. while sales of winter
goods have attained normal proportions
and holiday business promises to sur
pass all records.
In manufacturing there was never
before such well-sustained activity,
with contracts running past the middle
of next year. This is especially true
in the case of steel rails and many 9th
er products of iron, while in building
material. felt. footwear and most tex
tile branches there is little prospect of

tors Missed him. The round ended
with neither man in distress. but
with Rubin the more worried of the
two.
ROUND FOU UR-After short eN-
change at close quarters, Rubin
landed on the face. He was forced
back and .Teffries smiled as Rubin
again rebVlled him. Jeffries landed
hard left, blackening Gus left eye;
then he pursued him. fighting at
short range and plainly wearing his
man down. Rubin lacked aggress-
iveness and retreated as Jeffries
swung left and right and missed.
Gus led for the face and Jeffries
pushed him across the ring. Then
the champion pursued him across the
ring again and landed fierce left
on his jaw. Rubin shot out inef-
fectual leftS. Jeffries waded in,
whaling Rubin left and right. Gus
went down and took the count. He
came up apparently weak and the
gong saved him. Rubin was plainly
in the greatest distress when the
round closed. This round was much
in Jeffries' favor.
ROUND FINE-Ruhlin wore a dis
tressed expression when he came up.
Jeffries went in with straight arm
blows, but was blocked. The Cali
fornia man landed a light hook to the
Jaw and short left to the ribs, and
then came again to the neck with his

this effort, in which the champion
forced Gus with lefts to the face.
Rubin ducked and retreated stead

forcing him to the ropes, after which
Rubin went to the floor and at the
count of five staggered to his feet.
He ceased fighting and Jeffries went

/ fight was practically finished i'm the
! second round when JeffTies landed Il
! left hook on the jaw that took all the

His seconds complained bitterly. hut
Rubin insisted that he was the victim

matter. and then turned in disgust and

the spectators rose and one man ana

Here is the story of the battle by
rounds:
ROUND ONE-Ruhlin led for the
head and landed lightly with his left.
They cIinched. Both men fought
cautiously. Jeffries' left went round
Ruhlins head and did no damage.
Jeffries tapped Rubin lightly on the
head with his left. The latter clev-
erly ducked another light left. Then
Jeffries uppercut the Ohio man TO the
jaw with his left. He followed this
up by landing a left on the body but
missed another for the head. Rubin
countered with his left Jeffries
swung again, but missed. Gus block

rushed, but Rubin came into n clinch
and stopped him. Jeffries essayed

got out of harms way. Jeffries was
smiling The round was tame, with
the champion having slightly the ad-
vantage.
ROUND TWO-The round started
with a clinch. Rubin was hooked
around the neck with the left. He
accused Jeffries of fouling him. The
Akron man then shot in his right and
found .Jeffries' ribs, following this
up with an Intellectual left swing for
the head. Jeffries waXed aggressive.
Rubin, however, planted right and
left in the face, then rushed, landing
on the body. The champion led with

be used successfully ON deepseated
cancer" said DR.. L. E. Schmidt. 1T is
fact that that it has been used with
satisfaction in cases of superficial dis
eases of the skin, such as cancer of
the skin and lupus.
But not at the present time has any
one discovered anything show
ing that the N-ray possesses any me-
dicinal quality whatsoever. 1t should
not be used in that direction, as we do
not understand it thoroughly. There is
not n physician in Chicago competent
to handle the X-rayand none except an
expert electrician should handle 1t, and
he should always do so under the ad-
vice and assistance of a physician. The
X-ray may become a very dangerous
agency. It does not pay to tamDer
with it.
THE fast is, no physician knows ex-
actly what cancer is. Therefore
when we are told that the N-rav sup
plies TO the system such energies or
properties as are taken from it by
cancer we are inclined to cavil. If they
can do that they have found some
thing of which all other physicians and
surgeons are ignorant. We know that

but how or why or what is needed to
afford substitute no man knows"
II would not say for the world that
the N-ray will cure anything said
DR.. 4. J. Ochsner. Il have never used
it in that direction and 1 would not
contend that Il cancer had been cured
until three years after the apparent
success of the treatment. 1 see have
been quoted as having used the rays
on cancer. but that is a mistake. l
know nothing about it and think the
rays have been seized upon too hastily
as curative agent. Irresponsible prac-
tictioners are apt to deceive the public
and do immense harm. The utmost
caution should be used"
