CONFLICTING INFLUENCES.
Big Crops and Scarce Money Act as
Checks to Each Other.

New York, Aug. 18.-Clews & Co.'S
Review says:
Two strong conflicting influences,
crops and money, are at work in the
stock market. The promise of a bounti-
full harvest is a most powerful support
to values in spite of their high level;
yet the practical certainty that any ex-
tensive operations on the bull side just
now would precipitate sharp stringency
and possible trouble in the financial
markets effectually stops any excessive
ly packed operations in that quarter.
While unusual crop and business de-
mands are close in sight, the bank re-
serves, not only at the east but through
out the country, are at a very low ebb
owing to the tremendous expansion in
credit during the last few years. AS
stated last week., loans in American
banks nave increased 1886, 600, 900 in e
year, while the increase in reserve items
was less than $780, 600. 900. It is certain,
therefore, thai no additional strain can
be imposed upon our credit system, I'M
til the crop and business requirements
have been safely financed, without
grave risks, which are not likely to be
invited by those who really control
market movements Two possible
sources OF temporary relief may be
cited: gold imports, OF liquidation by
some of the syndicates which ave been
chiefly responsible for present condi-
lions. Little or no help can be expect
ed from the treasury, as in former
years when the government was with

DUN GOES IN PERSON.
Will Go Over Route of the Santa Fe
Cut-oE

Among the arrivals in Albuquerque
from the north. Sunday. night, were
Chief Engineer James Dun, of the SAN
ia Fe, and his assistant. C. o. Trimble,
says the Albuquerque Journal-Demo-
crat. The gentlemen were met in that
city by Engineer r. M. Jones of the
Santa Fe surveying corps and the trio
went to Belen. Mr.. Dun informed the
Journal-Democrat that although three
surveys for the Santa Fe short line had
been made, none of them was sa~tisfac-
tory in every respect. He had never
been over the ground himself, and this
trip he would make a personal investi-
cation. Mr.. Dun said that the short
cut would undoubtedly be built. He
could not say whether or not it would
run direct to Albuquerque, but he was
certain that it wouldn't be far enough
distant from the city to operate to its
disadvantage.

HORTICULTURE
Acting Chief Taylor of the Worlds
Fair Reports Upon His Recent Trip.

st. Louis, Aug. 18th acting chief
of the department of horticulture, Mr..
Frederic w. Taylor. has returned from
a trip through several Of the southern
states, taken in the interest of his de-
partment. The chief reason of this trip
was that Mr.. Taylor might attend the
meeting of the Georgia State Horticul-
turaI society at Macon. Mr.. Taylor re-
ports that the attendance was excellent
and hat the papers n discussions
were as high in character as it has ever
been his pleasure to hear.
The secretary of the society placed
Mr.. Taylor's name on the programme
for a paper on Georgia Horticultural
Products at the ST. Louis Exposition"
The society is deeply interested in the
question of participation by the state
and after the close of Mr.. Taylor's pa
per and unanimously passed
a strong resolution recommending an
appropriation and appointing a commit
tee to cooperate with a like committee
from the State Agriculture society to
interview the legislature and assist in
bringing about the appropriation of a
sufficient sum of money to do the work
right
Instead of coming direct home Mr..
Taylor took occasion to visit Hunts
vile, Alabama, which is one of the
greatest nursery centers in the United
States. This visit was made at the re-
quest of one of the most prominent
nurseryman there who is not only in
terested in the subject of general exhibi-
its, but is anxious to participate bv
means of an outside exhibit intended to
illustrate methods of nursery propaga-
ton and cultivation. The entire hor-
ticultural interests of the south seemed
to be awake to the ~desirability of an
exhibit at the Louisiana Purchase Elk
position. and if all signs do not fail
there will be the greatest fruit, flower
and tree exhibit yer shown.

The treatment of CataTrh with antiseptic and

Just as senseless as would be kindling a fire on top of
the pot to make it boil. True, these give temporary
relief, but the cavities and passages of the head and the
bronchial tubes soon fill up again with mucous.
Taking cold is the first step towards Catarrh, for it
checks perspiration, and the poisonous acids and
vapors which should pass off through the skin, are
thrown back upon the mucous membrane or inner skin,
producing inflammation and excessive flow of mucous,
