The Gains Which Have Occurred Arc of Substantial Origin. ’ no TIME FOR HIGH PRICES. Lesson of the Big lIu-ade Boom of 1879. Textile Manufactures—Clearing House Exchanges — The Wheat Market. Failures of the \Veek. NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—R. G. Dun & CO. ’5 weekly review of trade says: The greatest growth and prosperity the country had ever seen came suddenly in 1879, after several months of disappoint- ment because specie resumption had not yet brought the benefits expected. It is not the largest and most powerful vessel that can be started most quickly, and it takes time for new confidence. to reach through suming mills, expanding larger distribution to the results which make still greater and lasting gain possi- ble. .Best of all, there is so little crazy ex- citement that the gain may be ascribed to the deliberate judgment Of the ablest and most prudent men in business. It is not a time of high prices. and lasting growth does not begin, as the flurry did in 1895, by forcing up prices without regard to the consuming demand. The lowest general average of prices in 1879, the lowest for ten years after the panic of 1873, came several months after solid improvement had begun. »Many who are anxious to get early hold on the mar- ket are making for the moment lower prices than they could afford to maintain. Some have secured orders enough for months to come and begin to be less keen in competition. With the increase in out- put Of pig iron to 159,720 tons weekly against 142,278 last month, the price is a shade lower at the cast and Chicago, but heavy purchases already advance bessemer a shade at Pittsburg. A sale of 10,000 tons Tennessee No. 4 for export will yield only $6.871/2' at the mill, and the shipment -Of 2,000 tons billets to Manchester will yield only $15 at Pittsburg. Textile Manufactures. Textile manufactures are not encouraged by the demand for goods, which scarcely increases, though more print cloths were sold than for many weeks. But some mode of clearing away the enormous sur- plus has become a necessity. Lower prices are expected in goods, and slow buying is per cent from Sept. l1, print cloths 7 per . , cent, bleached goods 3% to 5%, and brown goods 2%, 3 and 4 per cent. Though woolen goods do not improve, there have been enormous purchases of wool by large mills, not in records, which cover for two weeks of January, 113310300 pounds at the three chief markets against 11,817,600 last year and 10,678,815 in 1895. Clearing house exchanges for the month thus far are less than 1 per cent below last year’s, though still 25.2 per cent smaller than 1892, the year of greatest prosperity. Railroad earnings and tonnage for J anu- ary thus far are light, owing to western storms, but December returns cover $38,- 586,912 on roads in the United States alone, only 2.3 per cent less than last year and 8.3 per cent less than in 1892. The Pennsylvania and some other rgads have commenced to buy rails and several costly improvements have been ordered, the Co- lumbia bridge alone calling for 7,000 tons of ‘steel, and a. terminal improvement for the Erie will cost $1,000,000. The stock market has been steady in spite of events used to depress it, and railroad stocks av- erage a fraction higher and trust stocks $2- higher than a week ago. The wheat market has varied but slight- ly, closing half a cent higher. Traders be- gin to realize that enormous exports of corn are taking the place of wheat in for- eign consumption, and will lessen the de- mand if wheat becomes dearer. Cotton took a rise'of an eighth on a trader’s est).- mate, but the condition of the mills and the goods market is not at the moment stimulating. ~ The Money llIarket. The money market has been disturbed by a combination of large bankers not to lend on call below 2 per cent, which invit- ed all sorts of financial institutions to take the market, caused payment of bank loans for some millions and left supplies of funds so heavy that time loans were sharp- ly marked down. More was done in com- mercial'paper, though ofi‘erings increased but moderately. Receipts from the inte- rior exceeded shipments by $1, 500,000. Ex- ports continue tO exceed last year’s for the week 8 per cent, while imports fell 10 per cent below last year’s. December exports of principal products, showing an increase of $16,282,054, give further assurance that the $40,000,000 of boarded exchange, some of which London is trying to renew, will not soon be exhausted in preventing gold exports. Failures for seven days of January were $4,371,731 against $5,568,008 in nine days last year, $4,522,531 in ten days Of 1895 and $9,041,225 in 11 days of 1894. Manu- facturing were $2,035,910 against $1,906,- 420 last year, and trading were $2,213,171 against $3,604,088 last year. Failures for the week have been 455 in the United States against 395 last year and 71 in Can- ada against 81 last year. A Nice Sort of Man, This. YOKOHAMA, Jan. 16.—H. V. Dickinson, a clerk in the Hongkong and Shanghai bank, and the alleged lover of Mrs. Walter Raymond Hallowell Carew, who, is charged with the murder of her husband by the administration of arsenic, was called today as a witness for the prosecution. He testi- fied that Mrs. Curew had deceived'him in alleging brutality upon her husband’s part. Princess do Chimay’s Experience. LONDON, Jan. 16.—A dispatch to The Pall Mall Gazette from Brussels says that the Princess dc Chimay had an unpleasant experience at Budapest. The police, it ap— pears, were informed that the princess was a spy of Russia, and consequently they raided her apartments and seized a pack— age of documents containing letters from a crowned head. Two Officers“ Saved. LONDON, Jan. 16.——A dispatch received here from Brass, Guinea coast, announces that Captain Boisragon and Consular Ofl‘i- cer Locke, two of the party headed by Con- sul Phillips which was almost annihilated by the ‘natives of Benin City, have been saved after wandering in the bush for a week.

LONDON, Jan. 15.—A Vienna dispatch treaty seems likely to revive the old popu- lar movement against militarism. Never were the newspapers more unanimous in judging of a great international ,event. The Opinions they express are an echo of a widespread feeling against the bloated armaments of Europe and of a hope of a dawn of a better era.” The correspondent Of The Times at Ber- lin remarks upon the Anglophobia dis— played by the .Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, which seizes upon the occasion Of the signing of the treaty to point out that it serves the interests Of the Anglo- Saxon race, claiming a predominance and spreading itself to all quarters of the globe. According to the same correspondent, the Clerical Kolnische Volkszeitung re- joices in the event and says of it: “This success is calculated to lead to others. If the aims of the pan-American congress in 1889 should be realized, guarantees will be secured for permanent peace of 120, 000,000 inhabitants of North and South America .and of millions Of other English speaking people.” The Volkszeitung mentions the efiorts a! three Catholic cardinals—name- ly, the archbishops of Baltimore, of Ar- magh and of Westminster—in favor Of Anglo-American arbitration. ACCIDENT 0N r. 1'30;er OAR. Five Persons Seriously Injured—Many Others Cut and Bruised. PITTSBURG, Jan.~15.—Five persons were seriously injured and about 30 others more or less cut and bruised by an accident to- day on the Penn Avenue branch Of the Consolidated Traction compafly. Those seriously injured were: P. G. Haley, leg broken; George Shingo, shoulder dislocat- ed; George Capper, leg broken; Edward Laylor, severely out about the head; Wil- liam Steed, motorman, badly out about the head. The accident took place as the car was coming down a steep grade near Thirty-fourth street. The gripman lost control of the car. He applied the brakes at once, but without avail, and the car soon gained a high rate of speed. At Thirty-fourth street it jumped the track and dashed into a telegraph pole. All the passengers received slight injuries. Those named were given medical attention and conveyed to their homes, but the others were able to proceed to the city. Bliss Refuses a Plao‘. NEW'YORK, Jan. 15.—After having con- ditionally accepted the Office Of secretary of the navy in the cabinet Of President Elect McKinley, Cornelius N. Bliss has re- considered the matter and has directed that he will decline the honor. His deci- sion was conveyed to Major McKinley in a letter in which Mr. Bliss states that he finds it impossible to undertake a four years’ residence in Washington. Business and domestic reasons cause him to decline. Foreign and Domestic Glass. PITTSBURG, Jan. 15.—The joint execu- tive committee Of the western and Pitts- burg window glass interests has fixed a special discount for the seaboard jobbers to enable them to displace foreign glass in the American market. With this help it is expected that the native pror’ :ct will at once take the lead. For some tune the job- bers have, it is claimed, struggled to outdo the foreign manufacturers without avail. Examining War Literature. CLEVELAND, Jan. 15.—-The committee appointed at the last national G. A. R. on- campment for the purpose of making a thorough examination of all literature re- lating to the civil war read or studied in the public schools of the country is in ses— sion here.

The racket caused 3. blockade. Protest of Chickasaw Settlers. ARDMORE, I. T., Jan. 15.—-Six hundred settlers, representing every section of the Chickasaw Nation, assembled in conven— tion here and adopted resolutions protest~ ing against the Choctaw treaty negotia- tions by the Dawes commission.

Anythingthat cures dyspepsia lifts about half .the weightof misery that crushes mankind—and wo- mankind. The trouble with most of the so-called dyspepsia-cures, is that they don’t cure. They give only temporary relief. Indiges- tion usually extends all through the diges- tive tract, from the stomach clear down to the large intestine ; the liver too is frequent- ly involved in the trouble being torpid and inactive. For a thorough, radical, per- manent cure you must have the whole d1- gestive organism set right—Not violently stirred up, but regulated. Doctor Piercels Pleasant Pellets will do it. They stimu- late the digestive juices of the stomach; invigorate the liver and help it to actively secrete the bile; and act gently on the bowels to promote a regular healthy move ment. This means a complete and last- ing cure of digestive troubles. The “ Pellets ” are not a severe cathartic. They act on the bowels naturally and com- fortably though surely. The dose can be regulated to your needs and when the “ Pellets” have done their work they can be discontinued. You don’t become a slave to their use, as with other pills.

HAS 36,000 EYES. Tremendous Visual Powers of the Deadly Enemy of the lilosquito. Argus, whom mythology alleged to have a hundred eyes, has been entire ly eclipsed in this respect by a cred ture discovered by modern scientists. This is the common dragon fly or mos- quito hawk. A question which puzzles scientists is whether the insect sees as many im- ages of the objects as he has eyes or faces. , Up to a certain point these multitu- dinous eyes may be compared to win- dows fitted with innumerable panes of glass. The panes, however, are of different forms. Some, like those 01 the bee and out, are six-sided, suggest- ive of the patterns so common in Gothic architecture. Some again are diamond-shaped, and others square. His specialty is the mosquito. In- deed, he has so succeeded in terroriz- ing the little pests that his lifeless form still fills them with alarm. In localities where mosquitoes are trou- blesome, an effectual mode Of ridding the place Of them consists in suspend- ing a dead dragon fly from the ceiling by a piece of thread.

A worthy colored deacon, who had early impressed upon his only son and heir the moral of the George lVashlng- ton cherry tree story, was fortunate enough to find a fat ’possum. recently. He bore it; in triumph to his dwell- ing, and assisted by’ his son, cooked it to a juicy brown. “Now,” said he, “de bes’ way for cat a ’possum is col’; so we’ll jes’ let him stay in de pantry, on when mawn- In’ come he’ll be 1110’ jucicr den ever!” . His son seemed sadly disappointed, but he made the best of it, and both retired for the night. The Old man was up early next morning, but the boy slept on. On Opening the safe the astonished parent discovered nothing but bones in the dish that had'contained the ’pos- sum. He brought the drowsy young- ster to his feet with one vigorous jerk, and dragging himto the scene Of the wreck, he said: “XVhat does dat mean, eh?” The boy fell on his knees and,cried: “Daddy, I can’t tell a lie; I got up In de night on eat it wid my little moufl” The Old man said not a word, but dragging the boy'to the front door he held him by the collar while he jerked a piece of weatherboarding from the side of the house. “Daddy,” cried the boy, “is you gwine ter lick me for tellin’ de truth?” “No!

' The people living round about the valley in which the grave was, sympa- thizing with the old Indian, buried him where he died, and Payne watched the ceremony in silence. At the finish, inspired by the scene he‘had witnessed, he sang quietly" to himself the words and air of “Home, Sweet Heme.” He was overheard, and asked to write them down, which he did, with the result that they are familiar in every household in the civilized world to—day. - 3 Sorry He Spoke.
