A Temperate Saloon Keeper.

Harry Moran. who has been in the
liquor business here since 1874, first
at Indianapolis as barkeeper for his
uncle and later in his own saloon. has
never tasted liquor in his life. He says
he doesn't know why he refrained from
tasting it when handling intoxicants
for SO many years. but it is fact that
he does not know the taste of alco-
holic liquors. Moran's record is be-
lieved to be exceptional among men in
his business.

Nurses Experience.

Medical men say that a good nurse
IN difficult case is better than med
icine, but when we can get good
nurse and good medicine, the patient
stands much better chance of re-
covery. The few words of advice
given below by nurse Eliza King, are
we'll worthy the attention of all
readers:
"I have constantly used St. Jacobs Oil in
the various situations I have occupied as
nurse, and have invariably found it excellent
in all cases requiring outward application,
such as sprains, bruises, rheumatic affections,
neuralgia, etc. In cases of pleurisy it is an
excellent remedy-well rubbed in. can
strongly recommend it after several years
use and experience. 1t should be in every
household"
Sister CAROLINA, St. Andrews Hospital,
writes: 81 have found St. Jacobs Oil most
efhcacious remedyin gout also in sprains and
bruises. Indeed, we cannot say too much
in its praise, and our doctor is ordering it
constantly"

 NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 6.-Aside from tho fact that the difference between the near and distant positions in Liverpool showed an inclination to get together more closely than heretofore. there was nothing special to note in the course of the English market today. The comparative easiness of near deliveries is doubtless due to a belief prevailing abroad that offerings of new cotton will be extended in unlimited quantity. precisely with the be- ginning of the season. Trading here was light. but the transactions effected were mostly on the buying side. Some tired shorts. wearying of the promised declines and continued post ponement proceeded to cover and slight i'm provement in prices resulted. Closing quota tions are 293 points higher than yesterday. The tcndarcy of the markets abroad well as at home seems to be to resist any deprecia- tion from the prevailing level of prices for new crop deliveries. indi eating that without positive assurance of bumper yield. such prices are not considered exorbitant by the conservative element of the trade This is not to say that bearish sentiment has undergone any material change in speculative quarters. but sellers are timid about engaging deeply in the absence of more substantial encourage ment.

NEW YORK Aug 6-Today's stock market continued to demonstrate in a negative way the unGcrly ing strength of the nnanciai ana business situation in the country. 1radins was mostly idle. The few stocks which were strong did not make impressive showing and did not alter the lstless tone of the mar ket in general. But 1t is clear that there is no eagerness to sell stocks. With no buyers a large scale in view. holders show them selves content to carry stocks and wait for a more active demand The very idleness Of the market Is reassuring fact. over -exten- sion of credits in speculation Is the one feature that threatened bad consequences. There now SC ems to be a common agreement tc await the satisfaction of the coming requirements Of the country for moving the crops. All authorites agreed that this requirement will be un usually large this year. Today's small export If gold was obviously a mercantile transar- tion and it was broadly iptimated that some thing equivalent to a premium was paid by those who are to get it. The nearer approach of the period of safety for the years crops confirms the confidence in their abundance With plentiful haTvests and large surplus or our pr ducts for export early anxiety over the liquidation of our floating foreign indebt- edness without embarrassment Is quieted The decision of the Stock Exchange to close on Saturday for no other cause than the coro- nation of the King of England Is testimony to the general acquiescence In the present Guii- of the trading in securities. A demand for the Gould Southwesterns was the most conspicuous feature of the days trading. The very heavy buying of Texas and Pacific was by the samc troktrs who have been active In Missouri Pacific for some time past and the response of other railroads in the group was purely sympathetic. Tho operations were sup posel to be for account of the same rool which has followed the upward movement Of these stocks from the start Hooking Valley was bought on the advantage the bituminous coal trade Is enjoying from the paralysis of the anthracite trade. The movement in sugar was characteristic of that stock in n period of dullness in the general market and was ascribed to the prospect If an active season in the fruit canning trade.

Aug 6.-Advites from Liverpool were not encouraging. consequently our market opened l point lower. but subse- quently advanced 3@5 points on shorts cover ing, fearing that some setback might still overtake the crop. making the net gain 2Q3 points on the day.

NEW YORK. Aug. 6.-Cottcn market opened steady with prices unchanged to point higher and for the rest of the morning and during the early afternoon was dull and devoid of interesting features. The English market news was matter of-fact and there was little in the reports of the crop country to in f1uence prevailing options. Receipts were rather disappointing and the spot situation presented no new features. Nevertheless. Wall Street and other bulls were 5go'n conspicuous as buyers of the October, Deco nber and Janu- ary options. The commission houses as a rule sold the distant months during the early part in small way. Yet speculation did not broaden; In fact, the public held aloof for further developments in the crop country
 Toward the close shorts became nervous and a little support needed to send prices up quite sharply. January reaching 7.63, while August worked up to S.2i. The close was very steady with prices net 2d5 points higher. Total sales were ecstimated at 100, 900 bales.

 The future market was very quiet. All the steam generated by the monthly and weekly bureau reports appears to have been dtsstpated. and the ttatI. has settled down to a short sea- son of inactivity. This position. in so far as the long element is concerned. is in measure expIainable but why the bears remain so quiet is not as readily understood. Every pres ent condition certainly tends to strengthen argument on that side of the market Prices opened even to 1 point down compared with yesterdays closing.

Murphy 6 Co.'S unc3 Cotton Letter


 NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-There was little do ing in cotton this morning. The opening sales at unchanged prices to 2 points ad vance Much depends developments during August and hesitation fin 1t Is displayed and will continue to be displayed until the close of the month. it is expected More moderate views being entertained to the crop The statistical record for the past twenty years is being closely studied and since it veals poor crops as a result of poor August conditions. the conclusion is reached that the present year will prove exception. that Texas may yet lose a million bales and the crop the whole may turn out very poor instead of very fine one. Those who have closely watched the progress of the crop feel convinced that trade has been misled by the predominance of good reports while ignoring the poorer ones. which they calculate amount to less than 25 per cent. or more for the whole. Prices also beginning to at tract attention and 1t is quite reasonable to calculate a revival of demand from all quarters should we witness further shrinkage In prices. Very narrow changes occurred In the market the entire session. Bears feared to sell and bulls feared to buy except in very small way. In Texas and Oklahoma lo4 temperature was reported today
