Scores Of Billings people. can tell
you about Doan's Kidney Pills. Many
a happy citizen makes a public tate
ment Of his experience. Here is a
case Of 1t. What better proof OF merit
a be had than such endorsement?
Mrs. o. Norman, living at los S.
Thirty-frst street. Billings, Mont,
says: 1T is over Ave years since
Doan's Kidney Pills were first used
in my family and at that time they
relieved q severe case OF kidney com
plant. My husband procured them
and the results received were so thor
ough that there has not been the
slightest return OF the trouble since.
The testimonial 1 gave In 1902 was
true in every particular and I have
since seen so many cases In which
Doan's Kidney Pills were used with
beneficial results that / do not hest
tate TO give them my highest endorse
ment...

Chicago Grain and Produce.

Chicago. June 22.-The wheat mar
ket was nervous all day because Of
bullish statistics on the one hand
and favorable weather for harvesting
on the other. The feature Of trade.
was the urgent demand for the Sep
TENDER delivery. The selling pres
sure on the near by month was
caused by the excellent weather for
harvesting in the southwest. The
market closed steady for July and
strong for September and December.
July opened M@A to A@Ac lower
at S6A to 86%, advanced to 87h and.
closed at 867A.
Corn was strong all day. The sell
ing Of September at &c over July
was the feature Of the trading. July
opened unchanged to * to Nc lower
at 69h to 69M to 69A, advanced to
70A and closed firm at 69M.
Oats were strong early in the day,
but eased on later owing to selling by
leading longs. July opened Nc higher

clined to 45N, where 1t closed.
Provisions were strong throughout

Radicals Win First Seats Ia Exclusive

1uelow.

Berlin, June 22.-Leaders Of the
German social democracy assert that
In IL districts in Berlin. six candi-
dates will surely be elected when the
ldednitive issue takes place tomorrow.
and that there ~ q large probability
'of two Or three more. One socialist
elected il Hanover at the flrst
ballot on June 8, and the second ballot
may add one or two additional mem
bers to- this representation. The cleo
lions are looked upon as a great
triumph for the principles of MARI,
since 1t Is the first time in history
that the socialists have gained repre-
sentation in the Prussian Angeordni-
tenhaus. Their entrance into that
stronghold of conservatism has Great
ed q sensation and may induce the
government to grant the long demand
ed franchise reform. Women and
children OF the workingmen's quarters
are taking part In the general jubilia-
ton, and the public demonstrations of
Joy at what is termed the speedy
triumph of socialism.
The victories Of the socialists are
all the more remarkable because the
franchise on which elections to the
Diet are conducted is based on a prop
erty qualification, which confers the
bulk Of power on the wealthy and dis
franchises the masses. The govern
ment hitherto has resisted success
fully all demands for reform. Chan
cellor 9 Buelow's attitude on this
question and the resultant street dem
onstrations last January are recalled
as the latest incidents in this perren:
NAL struggle.

COUNTRY CLUB BOYS GO DOWN
TO DEFEAT AGAIN.
BALL PLAYING
DeHaven Is Poorly supported-Errors
Of Head Of Frequent Occurrence.
Harker Shows Good Judgment in
Calling Strikes. &

Poor support given Dedaven lost
Sundays game at Country Club park
for the Country Club team. Errors
of head" not shown by the score book
as well as those marked up against
both the losers and the Sugar Tramps
made the exhibition one Of the poor
est Of the season. The score: Coun-
try Club, 4; Sugar Tramps, 8.
Husbands tossing was neither spec
tacular or phenomenal, the captain Of
the Tramps allowing u hits and strik-
ing out but three e DeHaven al
lowed 8 hits and struck out four men
until the sixth, when the Country
Club boys put Brown in the box.-Dur-
ing the four innings that he pitched
Brown. allowed but two hits and
struck out two men.
Both teams did good stick work,
hammering the ball with the bat and
throwing it away with their hands. It
seemed at times as though the batter
could place the ball wherever he want
ed to, and in case he failed In this
the 1elders allowed him to reach first
anyway.
One Of the notable features Of the
game was the umpiring OF Harker,
who showed by his good judgment
and undisputable decisions that he
still knows the game, Notwithstanding
the fact that he has not played for
some time.

ed yesterday these changes were
made possible after through service
on the main line had been tied up for
the last four weeks on account Of re
peated rains and high water.

New York Financial Letter.

New York Financial Letter.
New York, June 22.-The weakness
Of stocks today gave an impression Of
less passiveness than the occasional
droop with intervals Of recovery last
week.
There was only small expansion In
the volume Of the dealings to account
for this appearance. The active de-
sire shown to get out Of holdings Of
one or two stocks was largely ac-
countable for the changed tone Of the
dealings. Rock island securities we're
the conspicuous example. in contin-
uance Of a sudden decline which COM
menced in the closing dealings on
Saturday and which had a considera-
BILE influence in unsettling the tone.
The rumors which circulated today
in connection with the break in Rock
Island seemed to be more in the ma
ture OF surmise prompted by the
movement Of the stocks and any In
formal opinions. The movement gave
rise to some fears Of financial embar-
rassment facing the company Of
some one OF Its related companies in
the complicated cases Of subsidiaries
which distinguished these enterprises.
More than once during the last few
months 1t has been reported that q
comprehensive reorganization plan
was In contemplation. Today's ru-
mors limited at q coming bond issue
and even ct q receivership but these
rumors were discredited IN oncial
quarters.
