the reviving effect of the cessation of the South African war and the resumption of the gold supply from the Rand will in- duce investment in American securities or the withdrawal of capital sent there for investment m revived enterprises abroad. The answer is of vast importance to the expanded credit markets of this country. The semi-annual settlement pe- series of trials for our expanded cred- it's. Its approach has caused as the fea-' ture of the money this week>a demand for time loans designed to carry over the July period and the crop moving period and the maturing of heavy bankers obii- gations to foreign lenders, which are to. follow. Some relief is expressed from the July 1 reduction of taxes which should reduce the drain fror1s the surplus reve- nue requirements. But the withdrawal of tho treasrrv's offer tc redeem bonds. which was an important receiving factor. at this time last year, will have to be considered. The government crop bulletin for June l this week was disappointing in the lack of improvement of spring. wheat which brings down the estimates for the years total crop has also been increased. Some anxiety has also been felt over the cotton crops need of rain. Railroad earnings have been well main- tained at a level above last year and the industrial situation has continued prosperous. and especially in iron and steel in which the demand has continued to extend into next years period.

IT. 6 B. Beers Cotton Letter.

lSTecial to The Adyertiser.J
 New Orleans, June 14.-Liverpool ad- vices were not encouraging. consequently our market opened 1 to points lower but immediately after improved 3 on fresh buying when it was ascertained that clear weather prevailed generally throughout the belt. and with the excep- tion of probable showers Oklahoma and Arkansas and the Texas panhandle, the prediction was for faith weather tonight and Sunday. Later. however, >the Wash ington observer wired that there was a disturbance over the Northeastern Gulf moving northward and storm warnings were ordered at Cedar Keys. Tampa Punta Gorda, Jacksonville, Savannah and Charleston relaxing on the informa- ton occasioned break of to subse- quently values became slightly steadier making the net loss 3 to points on the day. Weather conditions govern the market entirely if the expected rains in the Atlantios materialize Sunday the chances are values will decline further On the other hand. the absence of rain throughout the belt during this time will occasion a reaction.

New Orleans. June 14-Spot cotton was in better demand today. Sales up to noon, 1.S0o bales, including 800 to arrive. Quo tations unchanged Futures opened 1M2 points lower. The prediction of a storm over the cotton belt was the feature of the market that caused prices to take an easy drop and some brokers to sell and little realizing in the selling; it was done mostly on the prospects of rain. and if the promised storm does not come by Monday the general prediction is that prices will take a big jump. There was nothing doing in June. and but little in July. October was the most active In the trading. The net losses were 4G5 points.

The Financier's Statement.

New York. June 14.-The New York Financier says: The official statement of l the New York Associated Banks for last week showed a gain of $1.259.SO0 in cash.
 This amount very nearly agrees with the estimated gain which was based upon the traCeable movements of money during the week, the difference between the actual and the estimated amounts being only $7a.300. The loans were decreased $3,196,500
 retiecting the comparatively limited busl- ness on the stock exchange during the week and also the absence of important syndicate negotiations. The sterling loans which were effected last week were with private bankers and institutions other than banks. and, therefore, they were not shown in the statement the deposits show d decrease of $3027.9O whereas the re- duction in loans less the increase in cash called for net diminution of Sl ;sSe70O in technically out of proof. The required reserve was reduced by $l56,s75 which sum added to the gain makes 72,0l6. IoS increase In surplus reserves: this item. therefore. now stands at s13.so2, $50 against

Building Association.
General Elliott Has Determined
To Organize One For Porto
Rico.

General Elliott, who has had long
experience in the organ1zatlon ana
management of building, savings and
loan associations in the United States
where such institutions exist in almost
eyerv community and are highly
esteemed for the opportunities they al
ford men of small means and wage
earners to save money and own their
homes, has decided to organize an as
sociation in Porto Rico, under the eX-
cellent law passed at the last session or
the general assembly. The articles OF OF
association have been drawn and VIII
be filed with the Secretary prior to July
I. on which date it is proposed Tor the
association to commence business. Subs
cription lists are being prepared and
all who wish to make profitable invest
ment on easy terms will have opportu.
rity to Join the association the capital
stock will lie the accumulated earnings
of the members to the extent ora mil
lion dollars.
The report of the Commissioner of
Labor shows that there are 5,53S build
ing, savings and loan associations IN
existence in the United States, with an
aggregate capital, the acculation of dues
and profits exceeding, $45o;ooo.ooo, with
which 314755 homes have been acqu1r'
ed by members. The laws are SO strict
and the management SO careful that
the aggregate of losses from all causes
amount to the insignificant sum of S23.
332.2o an inappreciable per cent of the
vast sum invested, and a guaranty OF
security as well as profit to shareholders
General Elliott is so greatly encou
ragged by the many persons who have
urged him to inaugurate the associa
ton, that he confidently anticipates sue
cess from the very beginning, and
believes that when the land question is
settled, as he expects it soon to be, that
the association will become valuable

British Government Regards
Hostilities as Practically Over
Burghers Merely Saving Faces, : J

The British cabinet meeting, which
was summoned hastily to consider
dispatches from South Africa, ado
urned at 5 P. M. today. The As
sociated Press has ascertained that the
government regards the war as prac-
tically ended.
Advices received by the War Office
indicate that whatever decision the We
reening in conference may arrive at,
the majority. if not all, of Boer leaders
who went to Pretoria will discontinue
the fight. The present negotiations
were merely fer the purpose of enabi
ing rhe Boer leaders to save their
faces. After they learn the results OF
this afternoons meeting of the cabinet,
the Bnrgher leaders, it is expected, will
announce their reluctant acquiescence
with the British terms.
The war Office does not expect any
serious defections of the rank and file
from the line taken up by Gems. Botha
and De Wet.
Every precaution is being taken at
Downing Street to prevent premature
public elation, in view of the possibility
that portion of the Vereeniging dele
gates might bolt and continue the
struggle without their leaders. Pri-
vately, however confidence is expressed
in official circles that everything is over
but the shouting.
Interesting references to peace are
containing in letter from Klerksdorp,
southwestern Transvaal Colony, dated
April Is. The writer says:
Seventy to eighty thousand British
troops are here, Waiting for Gen. De La
Rey's answer from the peace confer
ence. Every hour we are expecting

them (the Boers) to march in and sur.
render. We have actually sent out
wagon1oads of clothes to enable them
to come in tidy, so there is every pros
pect of peace. Lord Kitchener comes
here from Pretoria every other day, and
seems to be in particularly good spirits.
He actually smiles, and that's thing
he not often does. We attach great
importance to those smiles, in regard
to peace

Remarkably Popular Remedy Commends
Itself to Prominent Citizens.
In this ago of competition it is we'll to

In this ago Of competition it is we'll to
be able to discriminate between the good
and theb Of everything. 1t does rot do
to judge too much by appearances, Tor
everything that giStens is not neccssa-
rily gold, or even silver, but in a great
many instances simply old tin, polished
up. 1t is hard to be mistaken when one
first has an opportunity to make a thor
ough investigation and sample an article
free of charge, before buying. This is the
way the Louis Daudeln Co., of Worces-
ter, Mass, have placed upon the market
their celebrated French medical com
pound, Blood Winc," and their oarncSt
request is that everyone in i'll hollth, 10
whose case their remedy is suited, shall
take advantage of the privilege and sat
isfy himself that there arc no misrcp-
RESERVATIONS, no cxtravagant promises,
no misleading quotations ard no false
testimonials. The DaUdeIin people en-
JOY the respect and friendship OF Massa-
chusetts citizens and wherever else that
they are known, and it is their desire to
push this feeling of confidence and esteem
to the four corners of the globe. Conse-
guently Blood Wine" bears the imprint
of honor throughout.
In order that everyone may know ex-
actiy what he is buying and know Just
what to expect from every bottle of
"Blood Winc," it is sold TO every drug
gist with the understanding that he shall
provide everyone calling, with free
sample. This enables you to test and
investigate right here at home the
workings of this remedy.
D"BlOod Wine" cures disease by begin
ming at the very foundation Of the trouble.
1t undermines disease rs readily as dis
ease overcomes the normal conditions Of
the system. 10 cure any kind Of disease
it is necessary to commence on the
vital fluid Of the body-the blood. Any
physician viii tell you that tho mortal
never lived into whose flesh the germs of
disease could creep when healthy blood
flowed through the veins. Sores on the
body, pimples and blotches are produced
in the same way that sores on the lungs
or in the kidneys or any other part of the
body are brought on. What IS consump-
ton? Nothing butasore, pus-emitting,
diScilarging sore, or mass of sores, which
if you could see would remind you of
any kind of disgusting sore. What causes
it and what Will cure it? The blood.
An impoverished, unhealthy cnrpuscle-
less blood produces all the ills that flesh
IS heir to. A rich, thick, healthy, &C
tive blood will cure them.
THAT disease in the family has been
handed down from generation to genera
tion-it's in the blood, you hear people
say and it's true.
If you don't rid yourself Of o disease,
you surely do hand it down toyour chill
dren and grandchildren. blood Wine"
