with utlciniitliiR to criminally assault
Airs. Helen Lapeinck, one of Ills
father's tenants, In her apartments one
night In August, 1901. The defense will
contend that the charge was trumped
up for spite because the elder ltrogan
sued the LupoIncUs for rent and the
fact Is given to prove this contention
that the warrant was not sworn out
until April, 11102. The prosecutrix was

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH
A Plcnsnnt. Simple, hut Safe nnd
filTccttiul l!uij for It.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to Incurable,
Tho usual symptoms aro a full or bloat
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
Roinellmes wllh sour or watery risings,
n formation of gases, musing pressure
on the heart and lungs nnd cllillrhlt
breathing, headaches, llckle appetite,
nervousness and a general played out,
languid feeling.
"There Is often a foul tnslo In Iho
mouth, coated tongue nml If the In
terior of tho stomach could be seen It
would show a slimy, Inilained condition.
The cure for this common and ob
stinate trouble Is found In n treatment
which causes the food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before It has time
to ferment and Irritate the delicate
mucous surface of the stomach. To
secure a prompt und healthy dlgpstlon
Is the one necessary thing to do nnd
when normal digestion Is secured the
catarrhal condition will have disap
peared. According to Dr. Harlanson the safest
nnd best treatment Is to use nfter each
meal a tablet, composed of Diastase,
Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux, Golden
Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can
now be found at all drug stores under
the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets, and not being a patent medicine
can bo used with perfect safety ami
assurance that healthy appetite and
thorough digestion will follow their
regular use after meals.
Mr. R. S. Workman, Chicago, Ills.,
writes: "Catarrh Is a local condition
resulting from a neglected cold In the
head, whereby the lining, membrane of
the nose becomes inflamed and the
poisonous discharge therefrom passing
backward Into the throat reaches the
stomach, this producing catarrh of the
stomach. Medical authorities prescribed
for mo for three years for catarrh of
stomach without cure, but today I nm
th.e happiest of men, after using only
one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
I can not find appropriate words to ex
press my good feeling. I have found
flesh, appetite and sound rest from
their use."
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest preparation as well as the sim
plest and most convenient remedy for
any form of Indigestion, catarrh of
stomach, biliousness, sour stomach,
heart burn and bloating after meals.
THE MARKETS
Wall Street Review.
New Voik, Oct. 7. There were many
shades of sentiment reflected In the start;
market today, but they all gave way to
acute depression in the late dealings,
and the day shows substantial losses
throughout tho list. Very large pool
liquidation was accomplished during the
day under cover of the earlier .strength
and in the heavy sellinc on the break.
The character of the manipulation and
the special stocks which were most af
fected by that and by the liquidation
pointed to the individuality of the best
known operator in the street who has
espoused the long ldo sinco a recent re
turn from ljurupe, and who has been sup
posed to be Intrusted with the market
Interests of some of the largest financial
powers, Including the I'nlted Stales Steel
.stocks. Southern Paclllo was very con
spicuous In the dealings. A recent de
cision publicly announced to Issue $2.1.
000.000 of bonds with u view to provide
funds for betterments and allow tho In
auguration of dividends out of earnings
was the occasion ot large speculative
commitments in the stock. The directors
liavu caused the announcement 10 be
quietly made this week that the time Is
not now considered propitious for the
Southern Pacific bond Issue. Tills is be
lieved to be not In accoid with the view
of the large speculative holder of the
stock who liquidated his holdings today.
Pennsylvania was also heavily sold,
presumably by the same large operator.
The early advance in prices offoied ex
cellent opportunity for this liquidation.
The upward rush of prices at tho open
ing was supposed to point to the com
pletion of the liquidation which the local
money situation makes necessary, and
there was considerable demand from
shoits and from bargain hunters who
have been watching for bottom prices.
Much was made of the orders by the
governor of Pennsylvania to place the
entire militia of the state In the field.
A strong Influence was exerted by tho
iiimouneunieut from Washington that the
secretary of the treasury would buy gov
ernment bonds If any were offered at sat
isfactory prices. When tho market open
ed, lenders of funds were demanding- 12
per cent, for call loans, and tho market
promptly took a downward course. It
was not until after midday, however,
that the selling pressure -alued great
force. The drop from the top to tho bot
tom level covered a. wide range, but tho
day's net declines are much diminished
by reason of the early advances nnd tho
final rally, which miido the closing
steady. Total sales today. !)12,lli0 shares.
llonds were weak In company with
sloclis. Total sales, par value, Jl'.Mo.OuO.
