rendenev Of the Times.

The tendency of r1edical science Is
toward preventive measures. The best
thought of the world is being given to
the subject. 1t is easier and better
to prevent than to cure. 1t has been
fully demonstrated that pneumonia,
one OF the most dangerous diseases
that medical men have to contend with,
can be prevented by the use of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. Pneumonia.
always results from cold or from an
attack of influenza (grippe), and 1t has
been observed that this remedy coun-
terasts any tendency of these diseases
toward pneumonia. This has been fully
proven in many thousands of cases in
which this remedy ras been used dur
ing the great prevalence of colds and
grippe in recent years, and can be re-
lied upon with implicit confidence.
Pneumonia often results from slight
cold when no danger is apprehended
until it is suddenly discovered that
there is fever and difficulty in breath
ing and pains in the chest. thsn it is
announced that the patient has pneu-
rnonia Be on the safe side and take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as soon
as the cold Is contracted. 1t always
cures. For sale by all druggists.

Tho Horse Market.

Chicago, Feb. 11.-There was Nd
change in the situation of the horse
market yesterday. Demand was fully
equal to the supplies which We're con-
siderably short of last weeks run. In
creased orders for farm stuff made the
market buoyant on these classes, while
all grades We're comparatively steady
at the slight advance noted last week.
Liberal orders from Illinois. Ohio and
Indiana for farm chunks and mares will
afford an outlet for all offerings at
steady to strong prices. Local and
eastern demand for good heavy drafters
is good at steady values Sales of the
best on offer range from $1T5 to 1925,
with anything strictly choice at high
er figure. Supplies of medium grade
drivers are fairly liberal, but all are be-
ing absorbed at steady prices, the value
being $100M160, while choice qualities
are fetching up to $3.50 and the demand
is good. Eastern chunks are fair sell
ers at steady prices. Expressers are
steady and best are selling up to SITS
and bulk around $l40.

New Orleans. La. Feb. 1.-THE fail
ure of Arnold & Co. cccasioned no sur
prise here among the regular race go
ers, but the inevitable finish of the
get-rich- quick concern was the main
topic of conversation at the track yes
terday afternoon.
1t is not likely that the local people
lost much money by the failure.
The get-rich-quick men have con-
tributed largely during the last season
to the revenue of the western race
tracks, and there has been no excep-
ton at the winter meeting here. Fully

these people since The meeting COM

The get-rich-auic!s men here come

vertisers in the local and out-of-town
papers, and their mail comes from re-
mote towns as far moth as Maine.

TRADE WITH INDIA
The United States Exports Few Prod
uets to That Country, Attic Imports
Are Large.
Special to Times-Republican

| Special to Times-Repuhlican.
| Washington, Feb. 1.-THE two sec.
tons of the world in which exports
from the United States do not make
satisfactory growth are South America
and India. In each of these cases the
United States Imports large and con
stantly growing quantities of the prod
ucts of the countries in question, but
makes no perceptible gain in it's exports
to those parts of the world. The Inn
ports into the United States from South
America have grown from $90,006, 144
in 1890, to $119,7S5,556 in 1902, while
the exports to South America from the
United States in 1890 were S3S, 75264S
and in 1902 s3S,043,6..7. From the Brit
ish East Indies (Which includes India
the Malayan peninsula, Ceylon, etc),
the imports into the United States
were, in 1890, $20,S04,319, and in 1902
$4S.421, 21S; while the exports from the
United States to the British East In
dies were, in 1890, s4,65o979, and in
lSOS Sf,O.l,otV.
These facts, especially with reference
to the trade of the United States with
British India, are set forth in a state
ment just published by the treasury
bureau of statistics, entitled CONNER
cial India in 1902 The absence OF
growth in our exports to British India
is the more strongly marked because OF
the fact that importations into India
are steadily increasing, having doubled
since 1864 and grown from $l66, 100000
to 1854, 100000 since 1880. Another
equally interesting fact In regard tofthe
export trade to British India Is that a
large proportion of the articles inn
ported into that country is of the class
produced by the United States. OF the
1864, GOO, 900 worth of articles imported
into British India In 1902, So per cent
consisted of cotton goods, of which the
United States is large manufacturer
and constantly increasing her manu-
features, while her possibilities in that
line as the chief cotton producer OF the
world are almost unlimited. Second in
order in value of imports are manu-
features OF iron and steel, which form
about ~ per cent of the total Imports
NEXT i'm order is mineral OIL which
forms about per cent of the total i'm
ports.

several cooperative turf companies
yesterday and today demanding the re-
