Hubbard Bros. 4 Co.'S Letter

New York, June 6.-Weather over Sun
day was generally favorable, being warm,
with scattered showers over the belt
generally The short interest, however.
in July and August continued very I'M
easy and their attempts tn cover to-
gether with some quiet bidding up from
the leading longs brought quick adj
vance In our market until July sold over
a cent pound above the low level
reached on the publication of the govern
ments report last Thursday Here the
acute demand seemed satisfied for the
time being and the market lapsed into
dullness for the rest CT the day The
continued good weather has made the
local feeling very bearish as regards the
new crop, and the fall options Jagged all
day under general scattered selling AS
we have pointed out before, the long in
terest in July and August appears to
control the position here, and we see
little chance Of the differences between
the two crops becoming narrow until the
July interest has covered.

 Overcome

constipation permanently by proper personal cooperation with the bene- ticial effects of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, when required The forming of regular habits is most i'm portant and while endeavoring to form them the assistance of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is most val uable, as it is the only laxative which acts without disturbing the natural functions and without facilitating and it is the one laxative which leaves the internal organs in a naturally healthy condition, thereby really aiding one in that way. To get its beneficial effects, buy the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Go. only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is never chased by the well-informed with medicines which make extravagGnt and unfounded claims to cure habitual constipation without personal coop eration.

AGAINST INSURANCE AGENTS
THAT CONE IN FROM
OTHER STATES.

HUNTINGTON. w. Va. May. sI
Auditor j. s. Darst who is also
ex-ofticio insurance commissioner Of
West Virginia. Is making a crusGde
against the agents from adjoining
States who slip across the State line
and without license or permit do q
large amount Of insurance business,
amounting TO several thousand dol
lars per year
About a month ago Auditor Darst
called attention to the unauthorized
insurance resulting from agroupsof
property owners associating tlleh-
selves together for the purpose of
protecting each other from loss by
fire, each assuming an equal amount
Of liability.
This month in a bulletin issued
from his Office, the auditor warns tlls
people of this State TO do no business
with any company that has not COM
piled with the laws Of the State. The
warming is based upon information
and knowledge coming to the office
Of the State auditor that along the
borders Of this State. insurance
agents come from Pennsylvania, Ohio.
Maryland, Virginia and Kentucky and
write insurance when they have no IL
cense to do so and many times the
company has no license to do business
in West Virginia,
By this procedure the State is not
only deprived Of the license tax from
agents. but is also deprived Of the
two per cent. Of the net premiums
written in this State by insurance com,
panies.
Even the policyholder. who aids in
the transmission Of business by the
Insurance company is sEsubject to pros
eoution unless the company is sauthcr-
lied to do business in the State.
