So far as the transactions are concerned, this was the banner day at the stock exchanse, over 422,000 shares of stock and 14,743,- 000 bonds havlnB been traded In. Sum mlng It up, however, the market did not display the reslHtancy which has been Its chief characteristic of late. In fact there was a prencral disposition on the part of traders, who turned bullish after tho adjournment of congress nnd loadvd up with Mb lines of various stocks, to turn paper profits Into cash, and the enormous realization from this sourve had a tendency at times to offset tho buying for Europe and by local commission houses. Tho buying for Kurope today was again heavy, the for. elgners tnklng renewed Interest In the bond department. The Texas Pacific Issues appeared to be In best demand, and a big block of the bonds were tliken for London. The foreign purchases are beginning to ex ert an Influence on sterling exchange, and late In the day demand bills sold as low as 4K8&a4X8. A feature of the share speculation was the Increased de mand for Chicago and Eastern Illinois, Big Four, Canada Southern, Michigan Central, .Flint and ere Marquette, Pa cific, Mail, Pan Handle, St. Louis, Southwestern, Texas Land, Texas Pa cific nnd a lot of other stocks which seldom figure In the dealings, except In times of miuHual excitement at the ex change. Sugar felt the Influence bf re cent liquidations, and after opening at I15A f,,n to 114. and closed at 114. Distillers was bouyant and Jumped to 20$. Chicago t!as was quiet, traders preferring to hear from Governor Alt geld In the matter of frontage bill be fore engaging In new ventures. In the closing hour the market was Inclined to weakness, nnd the final transactions as a rule showed net losses of al per cent. A few stocks, however, re corded gains of 14a per cent. Great Northern perferred brought 1U4 against 105, the Uxt previously reported sale. and has been mule t hcoestsmmtedln The rnngo of today's prlees for the ac tive stoi'ks of the New York stock mar ket are given below.

A Professional Nurse Afflicted with Itright's IHbcoso of tho Kidneys 1 Inds a Cure. , (From the liufTalo News.) Mrs. A. E. Taylor has resided In Buffalo for over forty years, her address Is 250 Herkimer avenue; as a professional nurse she has nursed back to health many a suf ferer. Disease In all its varied forms )ve become-as familiar to her as to the regu lar practitioner. Her occupation Is one that taxes the strongest constitution, but the fatigue of long watching and nurs ing at last brought her to a bed of sick ness. Mrs. Taylor speaks of her com plaint and cure- as follows: "After being confined to my bed for some time my dis ease assumed such a serious acpect that a doctor was called In. He pronounced my ailment IlrlRht's disease of the kidneys In the third decree and a very bad case. My limbs swelled up so that I could not walk across the floor, or, Indeed, help myself In any way. My face bloatod up and my eyes swelled so that the sight was badly Im paired. This condition continued for near ly two months without any marked im provement from tho doctor's treatment. I have taken quarts of buchu and Juniper. 1 tried battery treatment, but nil with out "any lasting benefit until I felt like finally giving up In despair. Hearing of Doan's Kidney Pills I gave them a trial, and after taking three boxes I was able to get up without assistance and walk, something I had not done m months. 1 continued steadily to improvo wlU their use. The swelling In my leg left, the color relumed to my face, changing from a chalky color to a healthy bloom. I now consider myself entirely cured and I shall never . rest .praising the little pill that saved nn. "Doan's Kidney Pills are certa'nly a surprising discovery for kidney ailments. I shall be glad to. tell anyone of the won derful cure they'rierformed on me." For sale by all dealers price 60 cents. Mailed by Foster-Mtllmrn Co., Buffalo, N. y soie agents for the U.

Notices have been posted Ini the Berk shire cotton mills that an Increase In wages would be granted May 20. The amount is not stated. The Central Traffic association lines have decided to grant a rate of one cent per mile for the annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic at Louisville. In 1892 and 1S93 the New York and New England freight trains averaged 350 tons. Last year Mr. Odell Increased the tonnage per freight train so 08 to save the company $300,000; some trains carried 700 tons. When the New York Central's new code of rules goes Into effect the em ployes will be required to undergo ex amination as to their knowledge of them, and those who do not pass a cer tain percentage will have to leave the service. Pottstown, Pa., May 8. The large plant of the defunct Young, Willever Block Signal company was sold today to Stanly, Flagg & Co., who will Btart an Iron works, placing the machinery In the plant at once, and starting with a force of 250 hands. The shipments of coal over the Read ing railroad In the week ended May 4 were 276,446 tons, an Increase of 84.697 tons over the same week last year. For the fiscal year to date the shipments are 5.316,646 tons, an Increase of 645,211 tons as compared with the previous year. While It is true that the Illinois Steel company has orders ahead to keep Us mills employed for a couple of months. It Is also true that for more than a year the company has accepted large con tracts at absolutely no profit, Blmply to keep the mills running and give em ployment to Its men. So many rumors have been afloat re cently regarding a proposed scheme to secure control of the Reading railroad by a combination of the Pennsylvania, the Jersey Central, the Delaware and Lackawanna and other roads' Interested In the anthracite coal trade that a prominent Pennsylvania railroad offi cial took occasion yesterday to brand the story as absolutely false, so far as his company Is concerned. President Sloan, of the Delaware and Lackawan na, has already denied that his com pany has any connection with such a deal.. Manufacturers say that the booming of business Is beginning to be an ob stacle to Improvement. This is due partly to the fact that advances In raw materials have been relatively greater than advances In finished products, re ducing the narrow margin of profits still further. ' Added to this, operatives have been quick to demand Increase In wages. In some Instances It has been granted, but In 'others manufacturers threaten to close their works because of Inability to get out even, with higher cost for materials and higher cost of labor on one hand and only a slight ad vance In finished goods on the other. This situation applies to a good many woolen mills, some cotton mills and some of the coal and Iron works. MONTROSE. Commencement exercises will be held at the armory on Thursday night. P. C. Burns, of Great 'Bend, visited Montrose on Tuesday. Benjamin Vance, of Franklin Forks, was In town on Tuesday. Major C. R. Parke, of Scranton, was In Montrose on Monday night acting in his official capacity as surgeon of the Thirteenth regiment. The ladles of St. Paul's guild are mak ing preparations for a fair to be held In the near future. Each day of the week Is to be represented by a booth, save Sunday. William D. Lusk visited Great Bend on Tuesday. Miss Summers, of Great Bend, is at present a guest of Mrs. Rufus L. Scott. Allen Sturdevant, residing on the B, Mulford farm, has been III, but is now much better. Edmund Baldwin, who has been visit Ing his son at Blnghamton, has re turned. ' Mrs. W. W. Williams has returned to Montrose, having Bpentseveral months during the winter season In the west. Burgess H. C. Jessup and several of the health board, accompanied by the town council, visited Jones' lake to see about the water. Tho article In The Tribune some time ago evidently In spired the health board to communicate to the council regarding Montrose's water supply. As the water Is now all right, at least apparently so, the official visitation amounted to naught. Will- lam Walker, a director of the Consum ers' Water company, from Mayfleld, was In Montrose on Tuesday when the inspection occurred. Now thnt the bad water is gone, of course nothing was discovered. Surveyor D. D. Lathrop has for a few days been looking over the ground for an entrance into town for tho Montrose railroad. G. Provesky, of Brooklyn, N. Y., was recently the guest uf Albert Miller. The graduates of the Montrose high school are: Charles E. Hessel, Bessie A. Blsbee, Lorraine M. Bradshaw, Dar cey A.

Sweet Miss Pope is confined to her home with typhoid fever, but her standing has been so high that she will receive her diploma, even If for a short time she has been unable to attend school. The Tribune correspondent has of late been approached by a number of peo ple In Montrose who have accused him of sending news to the paper he repre sents. It Is usually considered by a conscientious reporter unlust to his na per, Its readers and himself if he doe's not endeavor to the best of his ability give an impartial, full and correct ac- count of all the news he can. The Idea of suppressing unpleasant news is prevalent In some localities; perhaps this has been the past custom in Mont rose. In a delicate manner The Tribune man wishes It understood that the news will prevail pleasant or otherwise. Perhaps It's because The Tribune prints the news that It has so Increased Its circulation here. Who knows? Mothers! Mothers!! Mothers!!!

She became so weak and languid that she could not concentrate her mind upon her studies. Fanciful and vague Ideas took possession of her. She be came averse to shutting a door and could not be induced' to step on the threshold, neither could she be Induced to button her shoes.

Two months later she was suffering from a stricture of the (oesephngus) throat and could not swallow any solid food and for nine years all food taken into her stomach had to be reduced to a fluid form.
