The feature of this morning’s trading on the
Stock exchange was New York and New Eng-
land. The transactions in it were on an enor-
mous scale, aggregating 71,000 shares in the first
few minutes. The dealings were attended with
considerable excitement. The first prices were
generally slightly higher, but New England
was very strong and advanced from 56 to 59 in
a few minutes. Its strength did not last long,

. however. The buying movement in the stock
soon gave way to a brisk selling, and its price
declined as rapidly as it had advanced. It fell
to 54 before the downward movement could be
checked, and later rallied to 55, when it became
comparatively quiet and other stocks came to
the front. Lake Shore advanced 1%, N orth-
west llé and New York Central 1 per cent.
Burlington, Rock Island, Canada Southern. St.
Paul, Northwestern and Eric were also active.
The best prices were generally touched just be-
fore 11 o‘clock. In the hour to noon trading
fell off materially, though some of the leading
stocks continued to display considerable activ-

ity. The fluctuations in most cases were insig- a

nificant. New England rallied .from 51 to 55%.
Sugar, on the other hand. became weak, and
fell from_87}é to 86%. At noon the market was
very dull, with prices generally yét'o 1% per
cent. higher. At the close the market was dull.
The sales amounted to 327,400 shares by mid-
day.

terests of Pennsylvania, the fair authorities
having refused to permit an exhibit of ma-

superintendent, but the negroes are not yet

post extra guards around the farm and

Running Sores Covered His Body and
Head. Bones Affected. Cured
by Cuticura Remedies.

 

When. six months old, the left hand of our little
grandchild began to swell, and had' every appear-
ance of a large borl. We poultlced it, but all tono
purpose. About five months after it became a
running sore. Soon other sores formed. He then
had two of them on each
hand, and as his blood be-
came more and more impure,
it took less time for them to
break out. A sore came on
the chin, beneath the under
11 , which was very offensive.

is head was one solid scab,
discharging a great deal. This
was his condition at twenty-
two months old, when I un-
dertook the care of him, his
mother having died when he

”A 3; was a little more than a
14/ old, of consumption (scro ula,
of course). He could walk a little, but could not
get u if he fell down, and could not move when

commenced with the CUTIcrmA REMEDIES, using
all freely. One sore after another healed, a bony
matter forming in each one of these five deep ones
just before healing, which would finall grow loose
and were taken out; then they would cal rapidly.
One of these ugly bone formations I preserved.
After taking a dozen and a half bottles he was com-
pletely cured, and is now, at the age of six years, a
strong and healthy child. MRS. E. S. DRIGGS,
