.
A SPECULATIYE ERA
Has Slrnck the Markets of the Coun
try and Advanced Prices, but
IRON AND STEEL AEE HOT IS IT.
Southern Products Still Depress Pittsburg's
Manufactures.
BAD WEATHER AFFtCTS S02E LINES
'SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TIIE DISPATCH.!
New Xork, April 18. Special reports
to Bradsircet's show only a moderate move
ment of general merchandise at Philadel
phia, New York, Boston and New Orleans.
At St Louis cold, stormy weather, with re
sulting heavy roadways in the tributary re
gion, have retarded general trade, and even
at Chicago adverse weather influences have
had their effect on several lines, notably
milinery and clothinc There have been
slight gains at Memphis, St. Paul, Omaha
and San Francisco, but at Cincinnati and
Kansas City the situation remains practi
cally unchanged.
Snotr blockades on the Pacific roads in
February decreased net earnings in that
group, so that the gain in net on 10G roads
during that month was only 5 per cent, as
against 15 percent in January over January
last year. For the first time in some months
the coal-road group showed a gain in net
over the preceding year.
IBOX STILL DEPRESSED.
There is no change in the generally un
favorable position of the iron and steel mar
kets, judged from the point of view of the
makers. Several large transactions are re
ported in Southern pi? iron at very low
figures, and several contracts recently placed
have been canceled. Production continues
to increase in the face of the situation.
Steel rails are SO cents lower per ton and
nails very unsettled as to prices.
Speculation in wheat within a week has
reached unexampled proportions, transac
tions at New York alone aggregating 133,
000,000 bushels. This was caused primarily
by the Government report that winter wheat
in the ground was far below the average in
condition on April 1, backed by continued
bad weather and a report that India's new
crop will fall far below expectations.
Secondarily, the stimulus came from the
larger bull operators at New York and
Cnicago, who put their shoulders under the
market with good effect. Prices "West ad
vanced 10c Jand leave off C7c up; at New
York the gain is 34c Corn was affected
as was oats, the former gaining )Jc and
the latter Jb-c per bashel.
EFFECT OF A COEXER.
The corner in pork at Chicago April 12
advanced prices S4 per barrel, ot which one
half has been lost, liard is Jc higher per
pound, and cut meats Jc up. Demand is
tairly active. Drygoods are in better dis
tribution at retail, and there is some slight
gain in reorder demand. Price concessions
are still a feature.
E. G. Dun & Co. say that a season of ex
traordinary speculation has set in. Graiu,
pork products, cotton oil and sugar have
advanced, the latter in spite of the proposal
to remove the entire duty, and spruce
lumber also, in spite of the rapidly increas
ing interrurjtion ot building by our strikes.
The general average of prices for commodi
ties has advanced one-eighth of 1 per cent
in a week, and 1.7 per cent in three weeks.
Stocks have also been stronger, and reports
ol trade, which are influenced rather by
prices at which goods are sold than by the
volume of business transacted, are uni
iortnly cheerful. At the same time there is
continued evidence of an actual increase
over last year in the volume of business
transacted.
ONE EFrECT OF STRIKES.
"Wool has been firmer at Boston, without
change in price, and very dull and inactive
ot New York and Philadelphia. In the
drygoods market no improvement is seen.
Cotton manufacture does not thrive the bet
ter for the advance in the material, with
goods unchanged in price, and print cloths
only 33 cents for 61s. The boot and shoe in
dustry is clearly thriving, and leather and
hides are both firmer and in more active de
mand. The eight honr strikes in many cities
have already arrested all building opera
tions, and arc expected to extend, so that
the market lor glass is already affected un
favorably, and also the demand for struct
ural iron. The iron busines shows no im
provement. In steel rails large orders are
pending, and it is thought they can be
placed at $33. Bar iron is dull and de
pressed. Substantially all trie reports from
other cities give an encouraging rec
ord of the state of business.
FAVOEABLE EEPOETS.
At Boston improvement continues; retail
drycoods trade is large and causes better
jobbing trade, and domestic hides are high
er. At Philadelphia there is especial ac
tivity in drugs and chemicals, and the past
week was the best iii a long time in gro
ceries. Chicago reports the usual great in
crease in the movement of grain and dressed
beet, lake shipments of grain being double
last year's, and drygoods sales folly equal
to last year's, while clothing falls behind,
but is fairly satisfactory. Collections there
are generally good. St. Louis also notes
improvement, fairly prompt collections and
expectations of a good spring trade. At
nearly all other "Western points similar
favorable reports are made.
It is especially noteworthy that there is
no serious monetary pressure anywhere.
Money is quiet and easy at Boston, easier at
Philadelphia, and steadv with plentiful
supplies at Chicago, St. Louis, Milwaukee
and Omaha, Cleveland and Detroit only re
porting some closeness.
Tlip business failures throughout the
country during the past seven days number
214, as compared with 209 last week.
A BELLE SUICIDE.
The Body of n Beamiful and Accomplished
Young Iad7 Found In ihe I.nkr.
((Chicago, April 18. Miss Mattie Bacon,
the beautiful and accomplished daughter of
Colonel Bacon, of Niles, Mich., who was
studying elocution in this city, disappeared

Additional Evidence of the Wonderful
Success Being Achieved by
DRS. COPELAND AND BLAIR.
"It was about three years ago that expo
sure brought on a severe cold," said Mr.
"Walsh, "I paid no attention to it at first,
and it began to grow worse, and I soon
found myself in a serious condition."
The speaker was Mr. Martin Walsh, who
resides in Walsh's Row, Thirty-third ward,
Southside.
"My head and nose would stop up," con
tinued Mr. Walsh. "My nostrils would
clog first on one side and then on the other.
There were roaring and buzzing noises in
my ears. My eyes were weak and watery.
I could feel the mucus dropping into my
throat. I was constantly hawking and rais
ing. Jfr. Martin Walsh, Walsh's How, Thirty-third
h'ard.
"I tried various remedies, and was under the
care of different physicians, bnt could obtain
no relief. Instead I grew worse I could not
walk downstairs bareheaded without catching
a lresh cold. A dry, backing cough set In,
which at times was so violent that my throat
wonld become so raw s.nd sore that 1 could
hardly swallow.
"Sharp pains would shoot through my chest,
extending as far as the shoulder-blades. 1 had
no appetite. The very sight of food caused a
nausea in my stomach. Night Bweats were
added to my other troubles and weaked me ter
ribly. I would sleep soundly, but on arising
felt tired and languid. I grew weaker every
day, and was greatly reduced in weicht. In
fact I was hardly able to do my work.
"It was vt bile in this condition that I read of
tho wonderful success Drs. Copeland and Blair
were having with cases similar to my own; so
determined to Bee them. I did so, and. finding
their charges even lower than patent medi
cines, placed myself under their care.
"Their treatment certainly performed won
ders for me. I am now feeling as well as I ever
did. My head and throat no longer choke np.
The pains in mv chest have disappeared, and
the night sweats have ceased. In fact, to state
it briefly, all the symptoms I mentioned have
left me, and I one ray recovery to Drs. Cope
land and Blair."
Mr. Walsh lives, as stated, in the Thirtv
third ward, in Walsh's Row, a block named
after him; is well known throughout that sec
tion, ana this interview can be readily verinod.
HOME TREATMENT.
Mrs. Robert Ramsey, of Washington, Pa.,
speaking of her successful treatment with Drs.
Copeland & Blair, says: Every fall for the past
five years 1 have been troubled with chronic
dyspepsia. Hive tried countless remedies and
various physicians without any relief. I could
not get ease from pain in any position I would
assume. Every breatb I drew was like a knife
cutting me. I became weak and pale, losing
greatlv in n eight.
Since I have been with Drs. Copeland &
Blair all these symptoms have disappeared, and
I now feel as well as I ever did.
Jacob Altmeyer. of Risber, opposite McKees
port, P., states: "1 commenced treatment for
my catarrhal trouble with Drs. Copeland A
Blair on Jnne 29, 1SS9. I now feel like a differ
ent man. and shall be pleased to state my case
and recommend their treatment to anyone ad
dressing me."
Mr. William Barnes, of Hickman. Pa., was
afflicted with catarrh, and had lost all sense of
taste and smell. He was under the care of
Drs. Copeland & Blair, and now states: "lam
perfectly well, and owe my recovery to their
treatment."
Mr. Harry Phillips, of Hulton, Pa, has this
to say of his successful treatment for catarrh
with Dm. Copeland fc Blair: "I was in very bad
shape, but now feel like a different being, and
as well as I ever did in my life."

ANOTHER GREAT SUFFERER
Cured by the Catarrh Special
ists at 323 Penn Avenue.
The above is a portrait of Mrs. Elizabeth
Bratt, who lives at Verner Station. The
catarrhal secretion that formed In her head and
dropped down into her throat, cansed a severe
ulceration to set in. Her mouth, throat and
tongue became so sore, that she could not chew
her food, and was compelled to eat only soft
foods. She would often have sharp pains in her
face, and a drink of cold water would cause the
most intense pain. As soma of the catarrhal
poison extended to her lungs, she coughed
badly, her breatb became short and she felt
much pain and soreness in her lungs. She bad
a constant weak, tired feeling, and she often
felt so nervous that her whole body would be
in a tremble. The food she ate would sour on
her stomach, and she felt a full, distressed feel
ing after eating. Her heart would often palpi
tate as if it would jump out of her body. She
had much pain across the small of her back
and lower part ot her body. Exposure to cold
air would cause her to take cold, and often for
a month at a time she would not dare to step
outside the door. Although doctoring all of
the time she gradually grew worse. She lost
much flesh, until she onlv weighed 9S pounds.
It was while in this condition that she began
treatment with the physicians of the Catarrh
and Dyspepsia Institute, at 32S Penn avenue,
and became cured. She says: "My disease
was of 12 j ears' standing, and my condition was
runch worse than has teen described. I now
feel veil and strong, as I did when I was a girl.
I have retrained inr flesh and am very triad to
testify to my cure, as above stated bytbese
specialists. Signed with mv own hand,
"MRS. ELIZABETH BRATT."
