look like ordinary sores and are usually
treated as such, some simple salve, wash
or powder being used in the hope of dry
ing them up and stopping the discharge;
but while the place may temporarily scab
over, it again infames and testers, be-
coming as bad or worse than ever. After
awhile the deadly poison begins to eat
into the surrounding flesh and the sore
spreads with frightful rapidity. Then the
sharp shooting pains, which distinguish
the cancerous from the common ulcer,
are felt, and the unfortunate patient is
brought face to face with the most dread
ed of all maladies, cancerous ulcer.
Whenever an ulcer of any kind is slow
in healing it should be closely watched,
particularly if there is an inherited pre-
disposition to cancer. Often times ma
lignant, stubborn ulcer starts from boil,
wart, mole, bruise, blister or pirnple, for
when the blood is tainted and the germs
and seeds of cancer are implanted in the

BONDS WERE IRREGULAR

New York, March 10.-Efforts were made to contest the influence of the Sat urday bank statement during the early hours of today's stock market, but late in the day belated borrowers ran up the money rate by their bidding against each other and predictions were heard rom the best authorities that money would rule higher in the immediate future. The disaster to the British arms in South AL rica had a srong sentimental effect, al- though the direct influence was restrained by old time methods of underestimation
 Traders sold stock here on the supposi- tion that our money market was still un- der pressure for gold in London. Reports by accepted authorities that the condi- tion of winter wheat was not promising to face the coming critical period for the crop was also a bearish influence. The whole market gave way and closed active and weak with large number of lead ing stocks from to 212 points lower than Saturdays closing prices. There were many assurances put forth this morning, apparently in concert, that nothing was to be feared from the money market in
  The principal burden of these arguments was to the effect that large proportion of the present large loans of the clearing House banks are to railroad and industrial syndicates, made up the country's most powerful capitalists. It Is urged that the borrowers are the best security in the world and that little is to be feared from loaning the banks resources up to legal lt,,,Ito Journal Commerce estimates from $1400O.O0O to $2300O,OO0 of the new loans by New York banks and trust companies since January 1, 1901, have been made to such syndicates. The point is also made that too small account has not been taken Of the great expansions. This argument evidently had some academic force but they were not sufficient to dissuade the small specula- tor from selling out stocks when the in- dex finger of the money market pointed to higher figures. It will require a session of the London Stock Exchange to meas ure the effect of the news from South Africa It is fortunate that progress has been made in the liquidation of the recent extravagant speculation in Katfirs but there has been growing confluence tnae the struggle in South Africa was drawing to close and that the coming govern ment loan would be the last required for some few weeks to come. The principal feature of. todays early market was the renewal of the upward movement in the Colorado Southern stocks and large buy ing of Mexican Central and Mexican Ma tional securities.

Today it looked at one time as though prices had had the downturn, and the market was ready for further advance with higher prices than before, but whether due to the British reverses in Africa or to absence of general buying the tide soon turned, and during the late dealings the level touched the early low figures.
