Sore Straits to Widen Drouth Sufferers

By tho United Press.
St. Joseph, Ma Feb. 244. B. W.
Iliutt. of western Kansas, who is in
this city soliciting aid for sufferers in
that section, says the people of Mont
gomery und neighboring counties are
eating horse flesh, not being able to get
other food.
Their cows are being trained to draw
plows, etc., and by this means the
farmers hope to be able to put in a crop
this spring.
INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
One ray of sunlight has nppenrcd
through the dark clouds surrounding
the anthracite trade. Tho New York
Commercial Advertiser has inspected
the record of the individual shipments
over each coal road for the ilrst two
weeks in February. It says: "The
Erie, the Ontario and Western, the Sus
quehanna and Western, and the Dela
ware, Susquehanna and Schuylkill have
in these two weeks restricted their
shipments well within 60 per cent, of
the capacity, and In some cases even to
33 per cent, of the capacity. The larger
roads. Including Pennsylvania, are do
ing the same thing. The stocks of coal,
moreover, have been appreciably di
minished since the cold weather began,
and all the roads have found that the
demand is larger than the supply now
being mined. Prices, however, at In
terior points are not merely maintained,
but are even slightly higher than last
month. It does not seem for the min
ute as If the cutting Is anything more
than sporadic. There Is much more cry
than wool In the talk of demoralization
In the coal trade. It seems really, that,
thanks to a very severe winter and an
awakened conscience on the part of tho
Lackawanna and Pennsylvania, due to
the stress of necessity, the coal trade
Is steadily working out of its trouble."
Philadelphia Stockholder: Notwith
standing the cold weather of the past
few weeks the feeling in anthracite
coal trade circles Is unsettled, extreme
nervousness prevailing, ascribed to the
fact that a belief exists that the trade
Is on the verge of a general collapse.
Certain Interests are said to be prepar
ing for It. The basis for the feeling Is
the continued weakening of prices, de
spite the cool weather, which has large
ly depleted dealers' stocks and brought
them Into the market. The oil'! re
deeming feature is that the trade is In
position to be patched up over night.
This is the single hope which every
Interest Is clinging to; its realization
will depend entirely upon the percent
age committee. Some of the best In
formed interests feel that n general col
lapse in the trade will hasten the rem
edy, but, If this should result, there Is
no doubt whatever that a good many
of the smaller concerns would go to
the wall. An olllclal of the Lehigh Val
ley railroad yesterday said that the
committee has now complete figures
for the year lx3, but so far It has been
impossible to obtain them for 1XM. lie
believed that a temporary re-adjusl-ment
of percentages would be made on
a busls of the figures for lsfij, and that
a permanent arrangement may be ef
fected after last year's figures shall
have been received. The figures of the
bureau of anthracite coal statistics
show that so far this month the out
put has been about as agreed upon at
the meeting of sales agents In January.
The daily average has been about RO.ISX
tons, which, If continued, would mean
a month's production of 2.245,2(14 tons.
For the week ended t'Yb. shipments
aggregated 524.903 tons, a decrease com
pared with the same week last year of
21,927 tons. The Lehigh und Schuylkill
regions both show decreases In ship
ments, but the Wyoming region's in
creased by 13,843 tons. For the year to
that date shipments aggregated 3,731,
222 tons, against 3,4.35,937 tons Inst year,
an Increase of 25,2S5 tons.
Philadelphia Inquirer: ThP Lehigh
Navigation annual report presents two
features ot the utmost Importune",
First, the profit on mining coal In 1S!4
was very small, the Lehigh Navigation,
whose product has the highest reputa
tion In the market, making a profit of
only 19 cents a ton, Bgalnst 34 cents a
ton In 1S93. However, that Is better
than the Lehigh Valley, which made
17V4 cents, and much better than the
Reading, which made less than 4 cents.
But this small profit in mining Is but
temporary and will be recovered from
ns soon as business Improves. The sec
ond feature, and by fur the most Import
ant, is the decrease In tho receipts from
transporting coal. The overage reve
nue per ton on the Lehigh and Susque
hanna railroad's coal traffic lust year
was 06.75 cents. In 1S93 the average
wos 63.77 cents. There lios been n rc
ductlon therefore of about 11 per cent.
This loss, unlike the decrense In (he
profits on mining. Is almost entirely a
permanent loss. The price of coal at
the mines often changes, but there is no
case in the history of the trade when
the transportation rates were permun
ently advunced. The whole tendency of
transportation cost Is downward, nnd
once a reduction Is made It Is practi
cally impossible to return to the old
rates. This is really the most serious
problem In the anthracite situation
Tho tonnage question, perplexing as It
is, can be adjusted, if nut before a fight
then after one, but this matter of
freight rates is ten times as difficult to
deal with. When the Lehigh Valley
made its reduced rate contract with
tho New Haven road last year there
was a universal sentiment that the re
duction was a grave error. Time has
proved it to be such, as the report of
every utithracite road so far published
shows i serious falling off in earnings
from coal. And, moreover, it is only
a question of time when local rates
will bo forced down more nearly Into
conformity with tidewater rates, unless
by some miracle und In the shullle that
will murk tho end of tho present trade
complications It will be found possible
in some way to uilvunce the rates to
tidewater.

SLOWLY STARVING.
Surrounded by Plenty, but Dying
for Food.
Aa Evarjr-duy Occurrence. Our Frltndt
Perishing Wefoi Our V.ym,
A terrible experience for auy one to go
through, that of seeing some beloved
friend uctually wast ins away ueiore our
eyes, uuablu to derive sttllicieiit nourish
uient from their food to sustuin life.
Medicine iialurullv becomes of little
avail, and the various organs of the body,
debilitated from u lack of nourishment,
take on themselves the disease Unit was
originally the cause of tho " breakdown,"
und help hasten the end.
Such cusej, thotifth too prevuieni, are
happily becoinlnit less frequent. Tho
prominent, physicians of to-day do things
differently from those of twenty years
ni;o. They Ilrst. put ihc patient In a con
dition to stand the "siege," then enrich
Ids blood, create for hlin new strength,
and "build him up" generally. The
patient is then in a condition to derivi
benellt from his inoiliciue.
This is done by the use of Bovlnhie,
tlin original raw food. It Is un- extract
thut contains the greatest amount of tliu
life-sustaining and tissue-building proper
ties of lean, ruw meat, concentrated iu
the least possible bulk.
The udvantago of this is obvious. A
patient already greatly weakened by dis
ease, needs to husband every particle of
strength. A few drops of liovininu will
impart us much nourishment to the boily
as would be derived by a well person
from nil ordinary meal; and, in getting
this nourishment, the stomach has been
forced to do the least possible amount of
work.
lioviuiun, cotitinueil throughout an ill
ness, greatly hastens recovery. Taken
ut tlin beginning of a wasting disease, it
diverts the cause of the trouble by toning
up the various organs, and getting llioiu
In a normal condition.
lSoviiiiiie Is indorsed by 25,000 doctors.
Its action is always beticliciul, us a single
trial will convince the. most sceptical.

TO OUR patrons:
Washburn-Croshy Co. wish to assure their manr pat
rons thut they will this year hold to their usual custom
cf milling STRICTLY OLI WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers are
of the opinion that it is already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will tuko
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully threo
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling ha
placed Washburu-Crosby Co.'s Hour far above other
brands.
