NEW YORK. May l-Speculators were
In q more cheerful frame Of mind this
morning, ana the opinion was quite Eener-
ally expressed that liquidation, a. dirscs
or indirect result OF the San Francisco
calamity, which started nearly two weeks
ago. has now been completed. It was point
ed out that the action OF yesterdays mar
ket very clearly demonstrated this fact, and
on the advance In prices little or no fresh
selling pressure developed. 70 was believed
that the technical position OF the market
has undergone q most decided Improvement
and that the weak accounts have been pretty
thoroughly eliminated. A good deal OF yes
terdRy's rally was. OF course, accomplished
by covering OF short contracts. although
there was very substantial buying BY strong
banking interests.
The speculative community now Is IN
clined to survey tho conditions throughout
the country In q calm manner, and I'm view
OF continued increases In railroad earnings
and great activity In all Industrial lines,
many operators are confident that values OF
securities .,s are on level which 5use'nes con-
While confidence In the speculative situa-
ton here seems to be quite fully restored.
close market observers are OF the opinion
that prices will still DO likely to pursue an
consensus OF opinion. however, seems to be
that the market IL likely to res.oh some
what higher level today.
A member OF large International bank
ing house said that his Arm made larger
purchases for European accounts yesterday
than In many months. Other large houses
say that they bought stocks yesterday for
capitalists who had not been In the market
previously since December or January.

In compliance with a request by Jonathan
House. Chancellor Magic. at Camden. N.
j.. has issued a temporary injunction re-
strainfng the West Jersey and Sea Shore
Railroad Company from issuing the new
stock recently authorized by the sharo-
voted March g. to Increase the capital
from $s.076.000 to 100000. The amount
outstanding before the increase was ap-
proved was $6.216,050, and stockholders
were given the privilege to subscribe to
about $3.41s. COO OF stock at par last month,
raising the amount outstanding to about
SO. 834. 900.
Mr.. House never changed his old stock
for that Of the new West Jersey and Sea
Shore Company, and he alleges that Treas
urer Tatnall refused to permit him to par
ticipate in the privilege extended to other
shareholders.
The new stock will be issued under the
following conditions:
The privilege shall be given to each stock
holder of record at the close of business on
May 8, 1905, to subscribe for his proportion
(being 6M per cent of his holdings) at the

 R. M. Cunningham. candidate for gov. ernor, spoke here Saturday evening as ? o'clock to large audience composesd of the representative voters or thls place and Of the country around hefe. Professor Boyd introduced him in we'll chosen speech of about five mn, utes. which brought fourth several rounds of applause from the audience. No man was ever listened to with more profound attention and respect, than was Dr. Cunningham, and he was greeted with round after round of ap- plause as he in a calm and conserve tive manner, discussed the Issues in the campaign. The candidates did not try to appeal to the passions and pre-. dudices of the people but confined himself strictly to the issues at stake, and never mentioned MT. Corners name except in the very best spirit. This place has been conceded to Conner for some time. but for the past two or three weeks. there seems te have been a reaction in favor of Cunningham and he probably will carry this beat by sood majority

y supreme importance. pr. Cunningham is universally popular.
 jupiter Pluvius seemed on the Conner side however, at Troy Saturday No hner day could be imagined than that Wnicn greeted the candidate when he stepped of tho train after a hard ride From Enterprise. The sun was bright and thsre was no suspicion of damp ness. The court house square at the fike County Capital presented a lively slgnt scorss of farm wagons were standing about the handsome building where justice is administered There were scores of farmers in Troy to hear pr. Cunningham speak.
 But the candidate had hardly arrived at the hotel when one of the hardest rains ever seen in tais section fell and this rain had not slacked when the Lieutenant Governor began speaking. still there was fine audience pres ent There were probably 125 voters Tn the court room and they gave the speaker their undivided attention. It was Cunningham audience and all though he did not attempt any oratory, vituperatiop or any of those things that the experienced campaigner knows brings forth cheers. still the applause was liberal and hearty.
 pr. Cunningham spoke for an hour and half and few people left the au- dience during his discourse. In downpouring rain he started for Brun- didge, where he spoke at o'clock to a fine audience and where he made fine impression.
 We have given them a surprise" said Prof. F J Cowart, who Is an en- thusiastic Cunningham supporter. "A moath ago they thought Pike was go- ing solid for Conner but in the mean time we have not let the interests of Dr. Cunningham suffer and 1t is my honest belief that if all depends on Pike Cornty he will get the nomina- tiont'
 John Post, a venerable citizen, speak, ing of the situation. said; T am cer- tainly glad to see Dr. Cunningham here. A few weeks ago I thought our people would allow the wool to be pulled over their eyes by MT.

 Major Frank Foimar, a well known young business man, said that be was not acquainted with conditions throughout the County but Troy itself is practically solid for Dr. Cunningham His opinion was approved of ey Harry Wiley, a we'll known young attorney.
 Prof C. L. McCartha, one of the best known educators ana one of the best beloved mon in Alabama. was present at the speaking and applauded the words of Dr. Cunningham; and many more could be enumerated, who are taking an active interest m the cam paign.

Do You Want to Know
 What You SwaIlo W ?

There is a growing sentiment in this country in favor of MEDICINES OF KNOWN COMPOSITION. It Is but natural that one should have some interest In the compo. sition of that which he or she IS expected to swallow, whether it be food, drink or medicine.
 Recognizing this growing disposition on the part of the public, and satisfied that the fullest publicity can only add 70 the well-earned reputation ot his medl- cines, Dr. R. " Pierce, of Buffalo, N. r., has Ttaken time by the forelock,' as II were. and is publishing broadcast list of all the ingredients entering into hlS leading medicines, the "Golden Medical Discovery" the popular liver tnvigorator, stomach tonic, blood purifier and heart regulator; also of his TFavorite PTescFip- tionn for weak, over worked, broken down, nervous and invalid women.
 This bold and out-spoken movement on 1 exactly what his well-known medicines gre composed of, completely disarmed all harping critics who have heretofore un- Justly attacked them. A little pamphlet has been complied from the standard medical authorities of all the several schools of practice, showing the strongest endorsements by leading medical writers | of the several ingredients which enter into | Dr.. Pierce's medicines. A copy of this little book Is mailed fTee to any one de- nring to learn more concerning the valu- | Ible, native, medicinal plants which enter Into the composition of Dr. Pierce's med lcines.

BEMIDJI WANTS TEAM
IlV NORTHERN LEAGUE

Benlidji lis the first city in the north
west to start baseball talk in earnest
for the season Of 1900. The coming
summer will probably see more strong
amateur, or se1tli-professional ball teams
in northern Minnesota than were ever
in the field, and for that reason the
following from The Benidji Pioneer,
regarding the plan proposed there to
get the team on a firm basis, will be Of
special interest at this time to all other
places where the fever is apt to break
out during the next few weeks. The
Pioneer says
Although the baseball season is yet
some months distant. local fans are
planning on what is to be done to se-
cure and maintain a first-class aggrega-
tion of semi sprofe fessional players for the
team this year It is a fact to be re-.
garded that heretofore baseball in Be-
midi, has never been success, and
while several prominent business men
have been linceasing in their efforts to
secure a good team, in which they were
suecessful in 1904 and partially so last
season, the small attendance at games
together with other disagreeable feas
lures. made. the credit side of the base
ball ledger look decidedly slim and some
of these same business men who took
interest in the team and pushed it ahead
were forced at the end of the season
to dig down into their jeans and make
good for some Of thes expenses that
had been Incurred during the season
As a result these men are not ailx-
ious to take hold Of the team the com-
ing season unless there is an assurance
that ample support can be secured AT
the present time a plan IS being talked
/ of that would probably result in the Sc
curing Of first class material and an
increase in the patronage at games
THE scheme Is to forfnsa stock com,
pany, issue 100 shares at $40 each, max
ing the paid-up capital Of the company
$1,000. 1t is planned to lease a tract
.of land IN the heart Of the city, if pos
|sible and tise a portion Of the money
paid in for the purpose of erecting a
grand stand and preparing the grounds.
