YESTERDAYS STOCK MARKET.


 ! New York, Aug. 11.-The tone of the market was not as good this morning as yesterday afternoon. although it is decidedly better than last week. Lon don was reDorted as feeling bullish on American stocks and some buying or Sders which caused bries period of strength around the opening were be- lieved to have come from the other side. After the first half hour the market turned reaetiolrary and the dull crop re- port was perhaps the most important news to be considered. Its bearing up on wheat was unsatisfactory and there is now no doubt that the wheat crop will be much smaller than was estimat- ed earlier in the season. It shows at least one hundred million bushels re- duction according to estimate despite that it still shows good yield. The markets. however, have been counting upon a bigger crop and the effect should be to put the wheat market higher. The stock market should be low enough to have discounted, ii, The report is con sidered as showing rather unexpected ly good condition for corn. After the close of the market last night Canadian Pacific directors increased the dividend ra.e from 5 to S per cent. per annum basis. The action, however, was reflect ed in yesterdays fireworks in the stock The chief change in the situation seems to be that it has developed less pressure and become considerably quiet.

More Composed sentiment = Strong

 New. York, Aug. 1.-The prevailing sentiment in Wall street to-day was much more composed than for many days past. The reassuring effect of the greater, stability for prices established by yesterdays measures of support was seen in the encouragement ex- pressed irl various quarters that pro- lection for the market against denoral- ization would be forthcoming at need. There was a feeling that the worst of the liquidation may be regarded as completed and that the absorption power of the market may be expected to increase after a period of resistance to further decline, the dread of which is obviously keeping many purchasers out of the market. It is believed there has been an important absorption of stocks already by. capitalists of large means, who pursue the policy of buying at intervals on a scale down those stocks of whose value they are satis- AiSas ANOC 6o lAluSlh AiAlEOa lellIC " etos ttLr tached to reports that recent large withdrawals of savings bank deposits had been for the purpose of investment in stocks. There was, however, @ con- spicuous number of small transactions. This buying in lots of ten to fifty shares was attributed to small invest ment buying and was fairly well dis tributed amongst dividend paying stocks. Some of the industrials, on shared in this kind of demand. When prices started upwards there was press ure developed to sell, which was att tributed to those who bought stocks yesterday for purposes of support and who had no desire to hold them. But the downward movements failed to awaken the kind of nervousness that has been the rule for some time past and they served to demonstrate the ex- istence of buying orders below the mar ket, which served as a prop. The in- crease in the dividend rate on Canadian Pacific was shown in the opening rise of 1-2 in that stock, In which an un- easy short interest exists. But there was clearly no present intention to squeeze the shorts. This was accepted with satisfaction, as 1t is feared that anything like the working of a corner would be as discomposing to the mar ket as a violent decline in prices. The government crop estimate was fa- vorable factor in general, especially in the slight deterioration shown in the corn crop. The corn carriers them selves were affected by attempts to ! market shares or the strength of the crop showing. The chances of damage by frost to late crop are also held in mind in considering this factor l There were rather persistent rumors that the authorized St. Paul stock in- | crease would soon be issued, but there was no official sanction for these re. ports.

have sworn and subscribed to written
statements confirming the story Of the
awful illness and subsequent cure Of
The little son of Mr. and Mrs Nc
Bride.
DR.. Lines is particularly emphatic
In his statement, and there does not
cow seem to be any room for doubt as
to the fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills,
and nothing else. saved the little boy.
He was so bad that he had Epileptic
spells which seized him with increas-
Ing frequency. He was mi-paralyzed
IA the right side, and his mind was
BADLY affected.
In their sworn statement, Mr.. and
Mrs. Mcbride say:
The very day we began TO use
Dodd's Kidney Pills our boy had twen-
ty-seven of these Epileptic spells or
FITS. In less than week he ceased
having them entirely"
The case has caused a great sensar

statements have confirmed the whole
story.
