CHICAGO, March 6.-Wheat ruled very
strong all day, with large and active
trade. The market closed May, 4 July,

night. Trade was broadened out consid-
erably, and it looks as though we would
run into a good bull market if the wealth
er throughout the South keeps dry. There
were a great many bad crop reports re-
ceived today. and the Ohio State report
shows condition of only 62. Foreign
markets were generally steady. Liverpool
closed hd higher for the day. Continental
markets were generally steady. Stocks
abroad are decreasing.
Corn-There was large trade in corn
today, and the market ruled nervous,
within range of &c. and closed quiet

sentiment was bearish, and the crowd
pounded the market all day.
Oats ruled quiet all day, with only a
light trade. and within a narrow range.
The market generally followed the course
last night. Country offerings were very
light. while there was quite an improve
ment in the cash demand. and liberal
sales reported made to New England
Provisions opened very weak on stop

ceived splendid support, and advanced
quickly. Later the market wa badly

NEW YORK, March 6.-Sales of 10000
bales of SPOT cotton in Liverpool in two
days had much to do with the rise today.
Spot markets again advanced lie to hc.
Dry goods reports were very favorable, and
thirteen interior towns lost in stocks for
the dav 12,G0i bales, making loss thus

alone.
Some of the ports are losing also. Calves
ton, for instance, where the receipts OF late
have fallen far behind the exports. The
loss there today was $500 bales, and New
York, which received 800 bales, exported
5000 bales. Nevertheless, there was GER
tain amount of realizing, which at times
was plainly noticeable in recessions in
prices, but on every setback there was an
other buying movement which sent the
market up again.
Commission houses have orders to buy
on scale down, and the speculation has
of late broadened considerably. Bulls
would not be at all surprised to see tenn

NEW YORK. March 6.-There was evil
dent in today's dealings in the stock mar
ket a uniformity of tendency such as has
not heen witnessed in a number of weeks,
and the market was generally very strong.
Advices respecting the state OF the winter
wheat crop could be described as only
negatively good. For the most part the
.eports concurred in setting forth a more
or less delicate situation, which will be
strengthened or weakened according to
the meteorological conditions of the next
month or so.

Nav Increase Dividends.

1t is only reasonable to expect that the
dividends on both classes OF the stock
will soon be advanced, and observers of
the dealing in them thought the rise in
the stock was sufficiently accounted for
through investment absorption.
The extensive rises in Pullman Palace
Car Company and General Electric were
likewise taken to foreshadow some SINH
lar special distribution of profits, al
though these notions seemed to grow en-
tirely out Of the market course OF the
two stocks and could be designated as the
effect rather than the cause thereof
Elsewhere among the miscellaneous issues
there were smart advances scored in Col

The local transportation stocks were
comparatiyely neglected, but were steady.
The most active features Of the railway
list were St. Paul, the Colorado Southern
shares, Union Pacific, Southern Pacific,
Pennsylvania and Iowa Central Pennsyl-
vania, ST. Paul. and Illinois Central were
decidedly strong on the overflow of the
investment buying, which first appeared
in the Northwestern shares.
Among the railway specialties. material
advances were scored in Des Mones and
Fort Dodge, Duluth, South Shore, and At
lantic Evansville and Terre Haute, Kan
sas City Southern, and Chicago and East
ern Illinois. New York Central and the
Junior Vanderbilt stocks were also in good
request.

The Advances General.

Advances were recorded in virtually
every quarter of the market. One infu-
ence which could be readily cited in con-
nection with the common tone of the
dealings was the spirited advance in the
Chicago and Northwestern stocks, the
movement in which instance was succeed
ed by lively advances in such high grade
investment securities as the Omaha
shares. st. Paul preferred, General Elec-
trio. and Pullman Palace Car Company.
Chicago and Northwestern advanced to
a new record price, and its market level
naturally led to the suggestion that the
management contemplated some special
distribution of the companys 5 assets
among the shareholders The cutting OF
the Northwestern melon, however, had
been included among Wall Streets cal
culations for the past twenty years OF

TOO GREAT EXPENSE
Not the Reason.

1t is not because Pyramid Pile Cure Is
SO expensive that many people decline to
give II trial, but because they find 1t
100 great tax on their credulity to be-
lieve that the published letters bearing
testimony TO tie merit of this remedy
are genuine and bona fide; especially to
those who have realized the suffering in
cident to piles is ii incredible that any
one who has been afflicted twenty-fv
and thirty years with the worst forms of
protruding and bleeding piles should be
cured by the application of simple rem
edy. when their physician has assured
them that the only relief is in a surgical
operation. This is rightfully viewed WITH
dread by all those afflicted, as ii means
al the least a great shock to the nervous
system. with more than a possibility Of
utter collapse and death; in the majority
of cases. too, there is a return of the
complaint. owing to the fact that the
cause is not removed.
The proprietors of Pyramid Pile Cure
agree to forfeit one thousand dollars to
anyone who will show single published
testimonial to be not genuine and unso-
licited; this latter feature is most grati-
flying, inasmuch as these letters are writ
ten solely out Of gratitude and with the
hope that those who are afflicted as the
writer's have been may learn that relief
is at hand, at comparatively trilling
expense. Pyramid Pile Cure is for sale
by druggists at fifty cents package, or
will be mailed by the makers to any ad
dress. upon receipt of price.
Mr. William Lichtenwalter, head OF the
largest printing house in Canton, Ohio,
says: 1T is with the utmost pleasure
and satisfaction that | can say believe
am cured of protruding and bleeding
piles. after suffering more than twenty
FIVE years. / have been in bed for two
weeks at a time. ] have not suffered In
the least for over year, and | used only

Cure. l advise every person suffering

plant to give this remedy trial. l have
every confidence in it" Write the Pyra-
mid Drug Co., Marshall, Mich, for their
