Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is only
one way to cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inf1amed condition OF the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness liz the result, and unless the infam-
nation can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous services,

MURDER in the second degree was
the verdict against Thomas and
Chalmers White on trial at Rowan
court for killing young Russell Sher-
rill, charged with the seduction OF
their niece. Six years in the peni-
tertiary was the sentence imposed
by Judge Cooke, from which an APP
peal was taken. Judging from the
evidence and other circumstances
connected with the case but which
were not brought out at the trial,
the Whites got off lightly. The
young woman did not 60 on tie
stand at all.

SYMPATHY WITH THE COTTON
 MARKET IS SHOWN.
Prices of Securities Slump With Those of the Staple and They Also Rally Together-Far
 East a Factor.

NEW YORK Feb. 4-Stock market opera tions today were under the same constIa as for several days nast and the movement of prices again became wavcIing and uncertain after yesterdays decline. The sharp break in the morning while prices of cotton were slump ing and the subsequent ially with cotton point cd to n sympathy between the two movements which leaves little doubt that the collapse in cotton is viewed with more or less app. chen sion in Wall Street. The general apprehension that the long deferred crisis in the Russo Japanese contest at last at hand was a factor in the stagnation in stocks here as we'll in foreign stock markets A further jump in grain and. the drop in cotton the in- dicattOns of a warlike outcome. But the high ly artificial conditions in the commodity mar kets due to the excessive speculative commit ments give to feyerish sensibility that rubs them of safety as an index of conditions. The most important event of the day to the finan- cial ikets was the ten days notice given by the Secretary of the Treasury of a demand for payment of 20 per cent. of Government de- posits at national banks. This calls for about S3o, ooo, 900 payable at New York It is highly probable therefore that interior Govern ment Repositories will draw on their deposits with New York banks to meet the Govern ment's call. As the secretary-'s call says noth- ing Of further withdrawals of deposits in con- temptation. some relief was afforded from the that the first call was soon to be followed by another for 10 per cent more of deposits Tine conjectural estimates of the effects upon the money market here of the Panama Canal payments have counted upon the portion to be paid directly from the United States treas ury as so much additional resources released 10 the money market. The realization has been growing that larger portion than at first sup posed would have to be met by withdrawal of Government deposits and the quiet acceptance given by the market to the secretary's call shows that it's amount had been pretty accu- rately foresecn in financial circles. As to the effect upon th cmoncy market of these with drawals, it is clearly dependent upon the skill with which the banking in connection with the payment is carried through. There is a gem eral belief that New York banks are to be made Repositories in behalf of the general stockholders of the payments from the Gov crnment and these banks have made extensive investments in foreign exchange already to pro- vide for the remittance Of the sums due to foreigners. revival of war talk was respon- sible for the sharp recession in prices just at the close. which was therefore rather weak.

 NEW ORLEANS. Feb. 4.-Livcrpool was again very disappointing. owing to the unfa- vorable outlook in tho East, and our ma'sct in sympathy opened S5G96 lower advanced 62a72 on fresh busi predieated on the early frnness of spot holders and the expectation Of bullish weekly figures tomorrow. An uH- confirmed rumor of war having been actually declared started a selling move later in the session, which brought out stop orders, Caus- ing a break Of i43a 50 points from the top. Supporting orders about this time occasioned rally of 45g5l points from the bottom, but as this was withdrawn a recession of about S5 points quickly took place. making the net loss 4TGpl 50 points on the day. We called attention yesterday to tho danger of the local market. owing to its being relatively much higher than New York and Liverpool, and that a marked decline might materalze If any urfavorable outside feature should trans plre unexpectedly Today an unc0nfirmed war rumor and the weakness of Liverpool have been sufficient to precipitatc of the heav- jest declines ever known in one day. All op- orators under the article here still firmly convinced that values will ultimately seek much higher levels and claim that the decline of nearly two and half cents from the top has been in anticipation of war in the East. The question arises have prices declined suffi- ciently to discount actual War. Those well posted arc of the opinion that it has, yet there others whc believe the decline may go further. If those holding extreme short crop views correct and tfe next census "oport practically confirms them. there is no doubt q sharp reaction will be in order especially if the Eastern question Is settled amlcably However irrespective of the merits or de- merits of the situation thcre is one thng ap- parent to every one and that is extreme eau tion should be exercised hy every one engaged in the trade when fluctuations range from 75 to 50 points daily; consequently such being the case we deem it imperative to again call attention of our friends that all transactions should be on very conservative lines and heav- fly marg'ned until the Eastern imbroglo is settled.

The selling pressure was trenendouS +and for a short time 1t looked al. if prices must go still lower. From the opening the bull leaders were heavy buyers and gradually offerings were ab- sorbed. Smaller longs took heart and com menccd to buy did room traders also This had the effect ot bringing about a strong re- cpyery and also checked the short selling by cxultant bears in the tra1inG of the morn ing March showed decline of Io6 points at l 5 50 and then recovered 72 points to l6. 22: May lost 9S points at 1925 and recovered 57 points at 1882 and July lost oi points at l6 5e and recovered 5S points at i7.I7.
