A UNIQUE RECORD

Home testimony for Doan's Kid
ney Pills, published in every locali-
ty, is OF itself convincing evidence of
merit. Confirmed testimony forms
still stronger evidence. Years ago,
a citizen of Hartford gratefully ack-
nowledged the benefit derived from
Doan's Kidney Pills. The state
ment is now confirmed-the proof
more convincing. Cases of this kind
are plentiful in the work of Doan's
Kidney Pills-the record is unique.

TUESDAY BREAK
INLIvESTOCK
SLOWS TRADING
(By Consolidated Press.)

L. s. Yards, Chicago, Jan. Is
After the big break in values for
cattle and hogs noted late ysSter-
day the trade was slow today. Of
the reported 1,038 cars of livestock
Tor the local yards, more than $50
: had not arrived at the opening of
the trade. This delayed the start
Big killers are still giving the hog
market little support, and it would
undoubtedly be a hard branch to
handle if shippers were not good
buyers. They took more than 10, 900
hogs out of this market yesterday,
but still there were $500 unsold
out of run of 1888. Receipts of
livestock at the local yards today
were estimated at 1900 cattle,
$4,000 hogs, 10000 sheep and lambs
and 1880 calves.
CATTLE.
Demand was weak for all grades
of steers. Quality was again plain.
Some 14O0 pound steers sold at
$9.25 but few were good enough to
reach SS.75. The general market
for steers was called 15Q25c off.
Most of the good beef COWS sold at
$5.OOQ$5.50 on a weak market,
while Gamers made $27503.0O for
the best. Bulls sold slowly, with
good bolognas at $45004.75 while
bulk of veal calves went to packers
at S10.50Q11.00. Shippers again
paid above $1,000
HOGS.
Values were mostly 15@35c low
er than yesterdays sales. 1t was a
drop of 35c and more from the best
time of that Gay, with the decline
showing about 25c from the aver
age. Prime light hogs sold at sS75
0S-90 with choice heavy butchers
at $8.25@8.40 and few rough pack
ing hogs below $500. The general
run of light butchers sold at IS .35
QS.50.
SHEEP.
Lambs again sold at $13.S5 to
small sillers, while packers paid
$13.75 for choice stock The trade
was generally steady, but demand
was little weak late in the day.
Some 104 pound yearlings went at
$11.50. Aged muttOns held at good
levels, good ewes going at $3.50.

Wall Street, New York, Jan 25.
-Today's session on the curb ex-
change was characterized by. con-
siderabIy more active trading.
Kirby Petroleum was one of the
leaders, making a new high before
profit taking set in, and brought
about a reaction. Attention was at
tracted to a number Of transac-
ton of this stock, Sellers Sixty"
at more than a point below the
ruling quotations.. There was
heavy trading at higher prices in
the Radio issues especially the COM
mon. This company owns the
patent on the new wireless tele-
phone, is backed up SO it is under
stood, by some of the largest cleo
trical manufacturers in the coun-
try.
Cleveland Motors was strong on
buying by a house close to the
management but other motors
stocks, including Lincoln and Du-
rant, were somewhat easier. Red
Bank Oil was the feature among
the low priced oils on reports of
VI Sb(I1NC III
operations. Maracaibo rose ON the
covering of a short interest put out
earlier in the week and Standard
Oil of Indiana were firm. Philip
Morris was heavy under moderate
selling while Glen Alden coal
worked higher. There was heavy
trading again in low priced mining
stocks of the type OF Boston and
Montana and Eureka Croesus, but
without much change in prices
There was a fair demand for
Magma Copper.
Wide fluctuations in Columbia
Graphaphone IS continued the
feature of the bond market. Inter
borough Rapid Transit rs kept on
with their reaction and were down
altogether four points from their
recent high.

TRIES TO BE A
"DETECkATIF";
GETS PINCHED
Mechanic Tears Up
"Diplon1a' and Re-
turns to Work.

Ebster, Mass, Jan. 25.-Arthur
Arsenault was back at a mechanics
bench in oxford today, a cores
pondence school detective 6isillus-
Toned by contact with courts and
the state constabulary.
For weeks he had applied him
self to instructions how to become
a detective" Qualified, he thought
he wrote to Niles Peterson, post
master at Dodge, nearby village
that he was a, detective who al
ways got his man and worked in
secret" He would turn up the man
who robbed the postmaster three
months ago if he was advanced car
fare and money enough to buy a re-
volver and a pair of handouts.
Peterson informed the state con-
stabulary and the mechanic
detective was locked up Convicted
of impersonating an officer, Arsen-
ault paid the small fine, then took
out of his pocket diplomatic look
ing document, with seals of red
and gold, tore it into small pieces
and declared his detective days were
over.

DryGoods Market

New York, Jan. 25-Trade was
practically at a standstill in the
cotton and silk cloth market today
Interest in gray cloth was confined
to a few numbers of prints and
sheetings Few sales were reported
and they were for small quantities
for quick delivery. Bids as low as
s cents were reported for 3S12-inch
64x60's but when these were called
it developed that the buyers were
willing to take only small quaint
ties. Still 8A was regarded as the
market for southern and S13 for
eastern. Sheetings were soft in
spots. On 5.50's some trading was
done at cents and some unbrand-
ed 3-yard goods were offered at 10
cents. No business at all was done
in silg pending definite information
from Japan which might provide a
firm basis for operations here.

BULL ACTIVITY
SHOvES wheat
NEAR TOBOGGAN
Rv consolidated Pcs.


Chicago, Jan 25.-There was lit
tie business transacted in wheat to-
day. The bull movement appeared
to be integrating as the market
needed constant support. Much OF
the trading was in the way OF back
spreading. that is, taking profits on
spreads. This Recessitated sales OF
May against purchases Of July and
the spread narrowed about &c. The
start was a fraction higher on buy
ing by eastern interests and a lack
of offerings. After this buying was
completed the market seemed to
sink of its own weight. A local
bull leader, however, bid prices up
to the highest place of the day but
they met commission house selling
which carried prices of again and
then the back-spreading started.
Exporters were credited with buy
ing futures but there was no indi-
cations of any export business.
Milling demand was light. Winni-
peg premiums were l cent higher,
but Minneapolis was easier. Min
neapolis reported farmers selling
some of their stored wheat on the
was shown over Kansas and one
one inch of snow at Oklahoma City.
The movement of corn prices was
small and changes were of little
consequence There was some
buying which looked as if Armour
was giving the market support OF
feTings were mainly scattered Re-
ceipts of corn were not SO heavy
as expected but spot corn is not
melting with the demand anticipat-
ed and the undertOne was easy. EN-
porters took 100000 bushels of
corn here and some business was
worked at the seaboaTd.
Oats were quiet and easy. North
west was trying to buy July and
sell May. Seaboard reported eN-
port business in oats Domestic
sales were larger owing to increas-
ed buying by the south.
Provisions were easier with hogs-
The wheat market had an irreg-
ular finish on the profit taking ON
spreads May closed l2c lower at
1157s to 1-15. July 1.02. Corn
closed unchanged to l4c lower,
May 535s, July 557s to 55lz. Oats
were sc to &c, May 80 10 375s,
July 39Ts Pork closed unchanged
5 to 10c lower and ribs 10 TO 35c
lower. Local cash sales were 5000
bushels of wheat; 10000 bushels
of corn, including 100000 bushels 20
and 10000 bushels OF
oats.

POOLS MORE ACTIVE.
After an hour or more of mac
tivfty this morning the market be-
came responsive to the resumption
in a moderate way of pool opera
tons in a variety of special stocks
Evidently these pools had left the
market pretty much alone yester-
day to see what it would do of it
self, and were satisfied that there
were no stocks to speak of pressing
for sale around the current price
level. They had, to be sure, no
outside public to help make mar
ket, but they did have to work up
on short interest freshly created
since the start of the week Stocks
In which there were enough pools
TO push them ahead did little. The
most conspicuous among the spe-
clalties in which these speculative
cl1ques were active today were

DAWSON CHEMICAL.

Dawson Chemical caught up
with the rest Of the market on heavy
buying orders from new interests.
Dawson Chemical is one of the
stocks which has the element of
mystery that the professional trad
er always seeks in a speculative
favorite- The only thing known
about Dawson is that IT manufac-
lures product called siIica-jeI
which fs supposed to have proper
ties that will make the extraction
OF gasoline from crude a very much
less costly operation and viii rev.
oiutionize the oil industry in gen
eral. The silica-jel is a side line
with Dawson and the most recent
story regarding it is that a com
pany to handle the product will be
formed and divorced from the Dayi-
son Chemical company. The silica
jei stock, according to latest infor-
nation will be given. to the Davi-
SON Chemical stockholders share
for share. At the present time the
price OF silica-jel stock is figured
at about $50 a share but should the
product pan out as valuable as
those back of 1t believe it will the
price of the stock could be figured
higher still. A series of bonds is
convertible into Dawson Chemical
stock at 60 and on its last move
forward Dawson stopped just short
of that figure.
