and 20.6 per cent above those of 1900.
New England shoeshops are more
fully engaged than at any previous
time during this year. In woolens the
best feature is the recorder business in
heavy weights. quick delivery being
desired. Corn has again been the prin

PEELED the short interests to cover con-
tracts at disastrously high prices.
Farmers reserves are evidently insig-

bring out even a fair volume of re.
ceipts. Wheat was quiet and strong,
exports from all parts of the United
States were only 2.250,920 bushels,

sUWANEE SPRING.

At Camden. N. j., they were discuss
ing the death of Hon. William j.
Sewell, United States Senator from
New Jersey, when DIR. Taylor, the
family physician, in speaking of the
senator's death this afternoon, said:
He would have probably lived many
years with diabetes had he not gone
abroad, but Carlsbad had always
that he went for relief again. 1t was
there that he contracted the pneu-
monia trouble. and this, with the dia-
betes he already had, resulted in a
complication that medical skill proved
unable to cope with"
Thereupon DR.. w. H. Morse, the
American director of the Bureau of
Materia Medica, said:
That meets my argument for Su-
vance Springs. l published a good
word for them five years ago, and I
continue to maintain that in every
way the water is the equal of Carlsbad
or any other. The Springs are easy of
access, and the psychic influences of
change of scenery and climate are
wonderful. There are no chill winds to
cause pneumonia, and no malaria. My
advice is to send all patients with kid
ney troubles to Suwanee Springs, and
let Carlsbad take care of itself. Springs
equal in every way to the most aristo-
cratic in Europe, need our apprecia-
ton, and they are getting it,"
