tive, cleansing the system etfectually,
dispelling colds headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one

manently. It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and it's acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal

Deep In the Mud Under the Wrecked
Engine-DiIigent Search Being Made
Griffin, Ga, March 1.-Up to
this morning the bodies of En-
gineer A F. Mathews and Fireman
Isaac Mcdowell, victims of the wreck
on the Southern railway at Shoals
creek Thursday night, have not been
recovered, although diligent search
has been made for them.
The body of Lee Murray, the mail
clerk who resided in Atlanta, was
found early this morning.
After the water subsided somewhat
yesterday and the baggage car was ssx-
posed to view an opening was made
through the roof and considerable bag
gage and mail was taken out. At 1890
the body of Baggage Master Hill was
brought to the surface by a man who
was fishing out mail pouches with a
pronged pole. 1t was carried to the
bank and later in the afternoon
brought here and prepared for burial
and will leave tonight over the Central
for Columbus, where the interment
will take place
The other bodies have not been re-
covered. 1t is more than probable that
Engineer Matthews was caught be-
meath his engine, and his lifeless ard
mangled body lies deep in the mud
and water of Shoal creek.
About rs feet Of the trestle was
swept away, and no doubt it will be
several days before trains are again
running over it.
The scene of the wreck is as wild
and desolate as one can think and is
practically miles from anywhere.
Shoal creek crosses the. Atlanta and
Florida branch of the Southern rail
way just about / y miles north of Ze-
tella, small village in the western
part of this county, and under nor
NAL conditions is a small stream not
more than II feet wide nor over a
foot in depth But it drains wide
range of country and last night, swol-
len for more than ! 5 hours all through
this section, it was a raging, resist
less torrent that swept everything be
fore it.
Not a bridge that spanned it yes
terday is left today throughout it's en-.
tire length and the water marks on
the trees and banks show that at some
time during the night it attained a
depth of more than 20 feet.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, Dec. 2.-Tho notable cary
strength in today'S stock market was ~.
parently due to a resumption OF actlNltF
on the part of some OF the recently pass
i've speculative pools. The so-calied west
crn contingent was credited with lafSG
transactions. The operators on the puil
side professed to have advance informa.
tion or their Judgment of it's effect was at
fault according to the action of the mar
ket after the publication OF the MESA &c.
Tho advance halted about the time the
delivery of the message TO congress was
due. The market lacked all power of re-
sistance to the selling movement from
that time forward and the selling pressure
gained in force until near the close, wnicn
was dull and heavy. The check to the
recent upward course of the speculation
In the local fractions had n depressing ef-
feet on the general market. The dc
cline in fractions was due partly to a
natural desire to take profits but also N
part to the announcement that Il judicial
