bmttb will fight Hall at mlddlcn eight limit.
No reply has becu received to the latter tele
giam but the bwith pr.rtt are in hopes of Hall
agreeing .o tight Smith When talking about
the matter last evening John J Quinn said: "It
is a pl'J that none of those iniddlcweights did
not accent Farrell's challenge before he was
matetied to meet McAuliffc Since be agreed to
meet the latter it seems that all the middle
weight wants to tackle him. But ho cannot
agree to tight Hall or any other tivtoppers
un'il wesecbow be comes outof the McAulitlo I

llathd vniith is tjunc rcadt to face Hall
instead ol Faric'l ami Hall bt all means ought j

and. thcrefoie. he should not object to meeting '
any middleweight. Smith will fight at 1SS I
amundsand Hall can have his own wat about j

ROBERTS IHE VICTOR.
Tho Knclish Champion Defeats North In a
licinurkablc Billiard Contest.
The big match between Champion John
Itoberts, Jr., and John North at the spot-barred
Kuglisb game for fo,000 a side has come to an
end n Iiondon, and. despite all indications to
the contmy. Roberts is the winner after all.
He had agreed to give North the odds of 12,000
points in a game of 21,000. The last day began
w ith a score of 23,001 to 21,7(ifl in North's favor,
and there was a mighty buter feeling of resent
ment among Noi th's backers when ho went all
to pieces at the last and let his lead slip away
stcadif. Some of the billiard critics now ques
tion the honpsn of the game. Kgyptian Hall
was picked with eager spectators. Ihe finish
of the gatno is thus reported by an English
writer:
"Saturday evening, when the score was North
23.4H, Roberts 22,91!). North was in wretched
form, and at no time did be eer look like mak
ing a struggle for aictorj. Roberts, under the
circumstances, nia-le in quick succession breaks
or IC1, 1ST, 101. T3, 30,10 and 44,and next,from23,
591 against 23 Oil, he passed to the front w ith a
capital contribution of 156. ho tar. North's
onl runs of note had been .'Wand 67. and after
ward lie onlj made 51 and 39, whilo Roberts,
going on with '13, H7 and OL ultimately ran out a
winner bj 215 point. From a small section of
the spectators there was a hostile demonstra
tion at the Jinfch, and certainly North's form
attliclast was trv pior. During the fort
night ot or w hich the niateh extended Roberts
scored 7S break of over 100. but except tor runs
of 3M.337. .'113,301 and 3tH, he did not make ana
tomy sensational North, who made 15 breaks
of 3 figures the hrst week, only scored S of oter
100 during the second."
MITCHELL MAY SECOND HIM.
Peter Jackson I.lkclt to Secure the Artful
Englishman's Help In the Ring.
A New York paper intimates that John L.
Isullivan will be in Jim Corbett's corner when
the California boy faces Peter Jackson, says
the S-an Francisco 1'oiL This, it is stated, is
the result of a tacit understanding arrived at
ty bulln an and Corbctt m Chicago, and is in
furtherance of a scheme shadow ed out by Sully
for resigning the championship in Corbett's
favor when the latter shall have disposed of
Jackson, Slavin, Goddard. Kilraiu, Godfrey et
al. It is not known what effect the sight ct
f-ullivan's coaching Corbett will havo on Jack
son's nerves, but it has been suggested that
Peter might advantageously arrange with
Charlie Mitchell to work in his corner.
Knowing sports say that a vision of Mitchell
in an opposite corner would arouse an bully's
brain memories of a vera cold day at Chantilly
memories mingled witn recollections qf a
pair of black cjes, a French prison, and a
price paid to avoid dcleat, and that thee
bitter reminiscences trooping back from the
dim and shadowy past would cause the burly
boy from Boston to bellow like a bull and dc-
I tract from his usefulness a as second.

BECKIE BROWN, THE FERRYMAN.
Her Dc.it li Ihe Occasion of Some Interesting
Reminiscences of Her Life.
Frrt Ml TKLFOKAM TO THE DISPATCrtl
CArtMlcilAEi,s,PA., March 6. Beckie Brown,
tho Tcrrjuian" of Brown's Ferry, near here,
who dieu on the 2d, had worked that ferry 10
jcats single-handed and alone, bho was tho
widow ot James Brown, who died before tho
war, and Bcckic continued to placidly work at
the ferry. In her early days sho attended all
the fairs, horse races and old-time musters,
peddling gingerbread and spruce beer, both
famous, as she made them herself. She had a
secret preparation for her gingerbread that
made it famous, and no doubt did a great deal
toward makinir it familiar at all the local fairs.
She never told her secret to any one, and with
Bcckio died the gingerbread.
For the past 20 years she has lived alone in a
moss-cot cred cabin itist back from the rltcr.
blin was a great iovor of flowers, but her taste
rather ran to colors than what others might
call beauty. She was exceedingly hospitable,
and often entertained friends with a dinner of
her own cooking, which was a marvel, and
topped off with her famous gingerbread, was a
dinner never to bo forgotten.
Her years of toil and trouble did not go for
naught, as she leaves quite a sum of monev to
her children. In the fall of ISSb masked men
broke into her cabin, and not finding as much
money as they expected, they tortured the old
lady horribly. The fiends who perpetrated tho
fearful deed have never been discovered. For
the past two years she has made her homo with
her son, Samuel. She was 8j years of age, and
the immediate cansc of her death was a heavy
fall that crushed aud broke hor right hip bone.
TEETER'S PLAN TO ESCAPE.
A Letter Taken Proin Him Reacals nil In
genious Method to Be Free.
SPECTAl. TELEOKAXI TO THE DtSPATCJl.t
Washington", PA , March 6. It has devel
oped here that Teeters expected to hang and
made arrangements to try to escape. When
he was sent to the penitentiary the following
letter was taken from him, addressed to bis
brother George :
"Ihere is but ono way I can escape, as I will
never be cleared. You can get a can of peaches
at the store, open it carefully, conceal two or
three saws and solder it up again; then send it
to me, care of the Sheriff. If jou are going to
do an thing do it right away, for if I get first
or second degree 1 will get a bad sentence, but
if I get the third degree jou need not do ant
thing. Ask for diamond steel saws to saw off
a rifle barrel."
The letter shows every mark of being writ
ten by an uneducated, poor-spelling, guilty
man, who had given up all hope when caught
after his dreadful murder.

rerFCIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCII.I
New York, March 6 Special dis
patches to Iiiadttrect's indicate a fairly
satisfactory demand for staple articles of
drygoods, millinery and clothing, and for
boot3 and shoes and hats and caps. Toe
more encouraging features ot the week were
the subsidence of high waters where floods
have recently threatened, the cessation of
the storm on the Pacific coast, improving
weather generally, and reports of a settle
ment of differences between the MoAonga
helacoal miners and the mine owners.
There is a practical stoppage of produc
tion of duty-paid sugar, and the price of
granulated is from to 3-1C cents higher at
Xew York, and yt -cent up at San Francisco.
Coffee is yAa higher. Leather and hides
were iu better demand, the former being lc
higher per pound than on February 1.
Live cattle and hogs are irregular in price
at Omah.i, Kansas City and St. Louis, with
out special strength." Iluluth and St.
Joseph, while reporting a fair trade, admit
that a larger share of orders tbau usual is be
ing turned down.
Drygoods, Wool and Cotton Markets.
Special efforts have been taken to prevent
overstocking by country dealers. Drygoods
have been in fair demand, cotton and woolen
dress goods having been most active. Brown
and bleached cottons move slowly. "Wool is
quiet after a fair trade lor the season. Man
ufacturers are faiily well stocked. Cotton
is an eighth of a cent'oif and weak on the very
heavy crop motetnent. The effort to advance
the price of pig iron at the East has not been
successful, and anthracite ooal is stlii moving
sluggishly.
Business failures in the United States this
week number 231, against 218 last week and 215
this week last tear. The total from January 1
to date is 2.753, against 2,7oS last jcar.
Money has been firmer and in better demand
than last week, though the increased demand
has not been generally sustained. Rates have
been yi to 1 per cent higher, but in some in
stances have roactcd again. Collections are
not exceptionally prompt. Bank rleartngs
point to a quieter condition of general trade
and speculation than a tear ago, particularly
at New' Y'ork and other Eastern cities. The
total clearings for February at 50 cities aggre
gate SS.iHGSOs which is 11 5 per cent less
than in February, 1S90. and "per cent less than
in February, 1SS9.
Clearings Still Show a Decrease.
New York City clearings were $2,301,537,090. a
decrease from February last year of 17 per
cent, and from February, 1889. of 11 per cent.
Ihere were notable gains at Chicago, Galves
ton, San Trancisco, Minneapolis, Now Orleans
and Cincinnati.
Continued financial complications at London
regarding Argentine investments, the fear of
gold exports, unfavorable earnings of Wesiern
roads and the apathy of the speculative public
combined to cause sharp depression in stock
value, the New York market on Friday being
very weak.
1 he pi ice of wheat has advanced 2J cents on
reported damage to French and possiblv other
continental winter wheat crops, light officially
reported stocks at home and a good demand
for spot for home demind and for exnort.
There were 1,831 SSlbushels of wheat (and flour
as wheat) exported from tha United States,
both coasts, this week, against 1,681,210 bushels
last week, and as compared with 2,264,S09
bushels in a like week iu I8UU: l'oa,oio dusucis in
18S9. and 1,003 oS3 bushels in 1888. The total ex
ports from Jul 1 to date equal 67.93b,637 bush
els (including Montreal's shipments), against
7o.072.iol bushels in a like portion ol nw: oz.
S8S 929 bushels in 1889, and 93,981,527 bushels in
a like portion of 1S88. Indian corn exports this
week amounted to 000,390 bushels, against 378,
639 bushels last week.
Stocks of Wheat Much Smaller.
The total stocks of wheat available in the
United States and Canada have decreased
9.838,000 bushels since January 1. 1891, as com
pared with a deci ease of 12,319,000 bushels in
two months of 1890, and with 10,285,000 bushels
in a like portion of 18s9. The aggregate of
available wheat, both coasts, March 1 was 50,
995,000 bushels, or 1,554,000 bushels more than
w ere reported one j car ago, and 2,775.000 bush
els more than were reuorted two years ago.
consolidating Beerbnhm's and Bradstreet s
reports of wheat stocks. March 1. the total in
second hands in Enrope, afloat far Europe and
atailable in the United States and Canada, was
99.523,000 bushels, or 3,031.000 more than the
total a j ear ago. but 10,200,000 bushels less than
tlio total two years ago. Stocks in Europe and
afloat, therefore, have declined less rapidly
during two mouths of 1S91 than in a like por
tion ot either 1890 or 1SS9.
Throughout the Dominion of Canada interest

against a last wecK, and is tuis wees: last year.
The total number from January 1 to date is
150. against 133 last year.
Prices of Commodities Moting Upward.
R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review sajs: The
one wholesome factor is that prices of com
modities aro moving upward rather rapidly.
the average having risen more than 1 per cent
durintr the last week, and the exports of mer
chandise are thus liable to be restricted.
Reports of trade from all parts of the country
show little change since last week, though
there is perhaps a Utile less activity on the
whole. The South feels the continued decline
in cotton, but trade in that section is moder
ately fair. Rice is firm at New Orleans, mo
lasses strong and sucar dull. Business it St.
Lnms is only fair, and lather quiet at Kansas
City. At Denver busmc-s is lair, at St. Paul
good conditions continue, and at Milwaukee
and Cincinnati trade is rather quiet. Detroit
reports larger tiade than ayearago, and Cleve
land general business as good as usual, with
exceptional demand for rolled iron products;
but at Pittsburg structural iron is shaded, and
window glass is weak. Chicago reports an ex
tiaordmary decrease in dresed beef receipts,
and a heavy tail in receipts of grain, lard and
hides, but a large gam in cured meats aud
wool.
Trade in the Eastern Cities.
Drygoods sales are above last year's, with col
lectio.is easj. In clothing and shoes, sales are
also larger than a j ear ago, but collections not
quito so satisfactory.
Trade is generally good at Boston, but better
in materials than m manufactured products.
Some grades of leather are stronger and hides
hriu, but prices of boots and shoes do not im
prove. At Philadelphia iron is tinner aud coal
more active, chemicals m fair demand; but
tobacco is nuiet, with slow collections; wool
rather scarce", with worsted spinners busy at a
profit, and jobbers in tho shoo tiade reporting
.'noil orders, tbouzb buyers are careful.
The only speculative market that hasdeclined
during the week is the cotton market. It is
not a good sign when the speculative interests
aro active and buoyant, while legitimate trade
and productive industry are hesitating or cur
tailed. In the iron industry a temporary stiffness in
prices does not hide the fact tbatgencial con
sumption has sharply declined, apparently not
far from one-tirib.
Tlio Woolen Better Than the Iron Trade.
Ihe woolen industry is in a far better con
dition, the output of knit goods, worsteds and
dress goods and the medium and lower grades
of men's cloth being larger than at any other
time for five years, but tho more costly grades
of cloth aro not jet in strong demaod. Cotton
manufacture is not favored by the demand for
man grades of cloth, but the boot and shoe
manufacture is doing a little better of late,
though unib irrassed bt unsatisfactory price.
The Treasury Ins put out, silver notes in
cluded, only $200,000 more currency than it has
taken in during the past week, but the money
markets are generally well supplied for legiti
mate business needs, though at some points
stringent or more active. The reports as to
collections grow a little less satislactorr. and
ye, it is the prevailing impression that business
in all parts or tro countrj is on a solid looting
and will prosper when gnoil crops comii. 'Ihe
exports of products from New Y'ork were larger
last week, but for tho ptst uiuuth show a de
ciease ot about 3 per cent, and tho imports
meanwhile show a marked increase.

MEDICATED AIRTBEATMENT
FOK
Catarrhj Hoarseness, BronchitiSj
Astiiina, Deafness, etc.
By this mechanism
air is forced from
the blowing bulb,
which is clasped by
the right hand, to
the bottom of the
reservoir containing
the medicine to be
used, and by a sys
tem ot suction and
ljSpfu'3 DJection is thorough
ly mixed and im
pregnated with the properties of the remedy,
and then forced through the nose piece, held
by the left hand into and throughout the
cavities of the head, throat and lungs, open
ing and expanding obstructed cavities, tubes
and sinuses, dislodging mucous and folicular
secretions.
I have been asked both by letter and per
sonally as to the real value of this treat
ment Some of these many questioners
have since tried it; some thinking of it. Let
me add: First That this is purely medi
cated air, and not a sprav. One can see at
once its great superiority over the spray and
douche, aud how perfectly, by means of the
air-bulb, this medication can be forced into
every cavity of the head, throat and lungs;
and when I add you can obtain four pounds
pressure, it cau readily be seen how easily it
will dilate and clear out the little tubes
leading to the inner cars, and thus relieve
deafness from simple obstruction.
"Well, doctor, this explanation is certainly
clear, aid appears reasonable, but to facts;
let me ask what do you kno,v personally
about the
AIR MEDICATOK ASD IN'JECTOK?
In reply: It is painless; it will clear out
the bead; relieve the most violent catarrhal
headaches; remove the odor ot green catarrh;
break up the tendency to colds, and, finally,
restore hearing ironi simple obstruction in a
most remarkable manner.
The following was written by me at the
request of J. H. Moore, M. D., Cincin
nati, O.:
N0. 34 A EC H STREET, )
Allegheny. Pa., Jan. 5, 1890. )
Dear Doctor You wish my opinion of
the Air Medicator and Injector, and I give
it the more willingly as I am a convert my
self. The true physician has at heart the
best interests of his patients; his constant
aim should be to improve his treatment, no
matter whether the improvement originates
from his own or the brain of another. I
have felt lame in this branch of chronic
diseases, not on account of tbe medication,
but the mode of application, and I
h ivc long known that to effect this
object power and medication must
go hand in hand ; and not only
this, but that to meet the wants of the gen
eral public the apparatus should be adapted
so that the patient can treat himself, under
supervision of his physician. The moment
I saw Dr. Moore's circular I was convinced
that I bad found the "Philosopher's Stone."
One docs not need to look twice to see that
we have the power and medication com
bined in this perlect apparatus. A convic
tion is one thing, but actual experience may
be at the very antipodes. I am only too
happy to say that thus far conviction and
experience are a unit, and I may add, so
far as they have given expression, that this
is the sentiment of fully 30 cases who have
been and are now under ray care.

As will appear from the date, this article
was written over one year ago. I can still
truthfully indorse it, and so can mauy who
have given it faithful trial.
CATARRH HEAD, CONSTANTLY TAKING

Sir I was advised to consult you by a
lady cured bv j our treatment. For several
years I have been a great sufferer from
catarrh, and before coming to you I was
constantly taking cold. Finally I became
so susceptible to atmospheric changes that I
was compelled to remain indoors during
cold and damp weather, or suffer severely
for mv imprudence. Your local treatment
has broken up the tendency to colds and has
relieved me in a most remarkable manner.
I can now venture out in all kinds of
weather. I heartily indorse Dr. Moore's
treatment. It. Zano,

To sufferers from any form of Catarrh, Nerv

I have known Dr. S. G. Moore, 31 Arch
street, Allegheny, Pa., about nine years,
and iu that time, and specially iu the last
few years, have observed his success in the
treatment of the cises which he makes a
specialty. He has beeu remarkably suc
cessful inthe cases that I have known,
more particulaily so in the medicated air
treatment for diseases of the head, throat
and lungs. I feel sure that any person
-.filleted with diseases oi that kind will find
in the doctor a most skillful specialist who
will relieve them, and, unless the disease is
beyond human remedies, will cuie them.
