COMMERCIAL Local, Eastern and Foreign Prices Current WALL STREET SPECULATION PRICES ARE LOW AND BETTEB, TRADING DONE The Grangers Still Suffering From Effects of Trans-missouri Case Decision—Bonds Firm NEW YORK, March 27.—Except for a brief period afler the opening there wan no disposition on the part of the shorts to "cover today and all scorned content to realize on a falling market. The course of prices was upward at the start only In response to tho high range of London prices and on a small amount of covering. The movement was most marked In the grangers but did not SXOeed a fraction at any point. The large preponderance ot dealings wan In the industrials and tho specialties, and there were evidences of manipulation In some of these stocks. This continued pratlcally without Interruption to the close, which showed the lowest prices of the day and about the lowest of the week. The dealings in Rtigar, tobacco and leather preferred were noticeably heavy and each in turn was attacked de terminedly, resulting in a marked fall In prices. The railroads continued under the heavy weight of the fear of a rate war. The low priced shares seemed to be picked out for special attack and bore the brunt Of the selling in the rallwny list after the first hour. The decision of the supreme court on Monduy that the ohl Transmts sourl Freight association was Illegal un der the Sherman anti-trust law, hes oc cupied the attention of Wall street all the week to the practical exclusion of every thing else. The fears occasioned In Wall street have been diligently fed by the views expressed on the decision by all the rail road men who have talked upon It. The Immediate disintegration of the associa tions of which the grangers ami the south western railroads are ntembers, was ac cepted by stockholders In the same spirit as though It had resulted from a failure to maintain the rates agreed upon and were preliminary to a tierce competition for business. The, announcement which the Missouri Parltlc. coupled with its notice of withdrawal, that it Intended to strictly maintain the existing rates, though no longer acting with the traffic association, served to quiet apprehensions In the mar ket more than anything else. Little ac count was taken, however, that a war of rates could only ho precipitated by the violation of one of the roads and current comment tn the street uncovered tho ex istence of a rather cynical distrust among railroad managers and a noplnlon. ex pressed with sound candor, that the only means by which these authorities can he prevented from underbidding otif unothe! and discriminating In rates Is an author ity to Inflict fines, and penalties upon them for doing so. The anthracite coul group was a notable cemer of depression, in view of the overstocks and poor prices of coal and the greatly reduced demand. For eign exchange exhibited a decided strength which waned somewhat in the Closing days, owing to the offerings or security drafts. The advance in actual rates up to Thursday was an average of about %c Prospective importH In anticipation of the new tariff bill are expected to Influence ex change before long. Money was easy during the week, especially in the later dealings. Some operations In call loans Were registered at 2 per cent. Toward the close, however, accommodations were se cured at l'Atfil-li per cent, with the bulk of dealings at minimum ilgmeß. Discount rates hardened appreciably throughout. Quotations were nt 3%'ti4 for prime nnd Hi . per cent for good names The hond mar ket reflected steady offerings for London and continental account of the middle grade and speculative Issues were fairly well taken by the local dealers, although general concessions in values were forced except In the gilt-edged bonds, which were strengthened by Investment purchases. The sales were J6.510.000. Governments sag ged In the early trading but later developed strength and regained the declines on in vestment purchases. The sales were $238, --000.

The banks now hold $48,804,750 In excess of the legal re quirements. The Financier says: A reduction of $1,891, --800 In the loans of the New York banks af ter an expansion In that Item of $8,750,000 since February 27th. was a disappointing feature of the bank statement for the cur rent w k. The loan contraction was ac companied by a falling oft in deposits and an Increase in Iho reserve. There appears to be nothing at present which foreshadows an Increase In the loan Item: In fact, many of the banks report that their lines are rather we'll tilled, and tho market har. displayed considerable ease during the week. An advance in the current rates, therefore, will depend In a great measure on the reduction of the balances which country banks maintain at this center which are subject to withdrawal. In other words, the memey market now awaits tho revival of business at other centers. The sudden advanco In foreign exchange earlier hi the week was met by the offerings of In vestment sterling, but as the ae-oumula tions of.exchnnge nre not supposed to be sufficient to last over six weeks, there may be a somewhat critical period, so far as gold exports are concerned, before sum mer comes. That exports will actually oe onr, however. Is not at all certain. Despite the unsteadiness In the financial world for the past few years, tl Is v remarkable fact and one showing the excellent manage ment of the New York banks, that the past decade shows an Increase In the book value of their stocks of 34.X per cent. Slne-e 1890 the trust companies have added $14. --800.000 to their surplus, a gain'equal to 70 per cent of their capital.

SUMMARY Deeds 48 Nominal 22 Total $29,694.1') Money in Wasps Along the banks of the Cape Fear rivet in North Carolina are lowlands, behind which lies a higher level, or bench. The lowlands are subject to more or less fre quent overflow by freshets, which are destructive to crops planted thereom. A number of years ago a farmer, resident •In the vicinity, made a very comfortable sum of money by insuring his neigh bors' crops against these freshets. His unvarying success as an Insurer was for many years a profound mystery to the people of the region. The years when he declined to insure were invariably years of destructive overflow. The years he was willing to insure were equally cer tain to be seasons of exemption from dis aster. In the earlier days ln New England this man's reading of the future would have brought him some unpleasant ex perience as a dabbler, if not an adept, In black art. In the middle ages of Eu rope he would probably have been re vered as a prophet and saint. Yet his information came from no occult source. Observation had shown him that a cer tain species of wasp, which built Its home In the ground, built some years on the lowlands and other years upon the higher level. Eperience taught him that when the wasps built on the lowlands there were no freshets, and when they built on the higher ground, the lower would, some time during the season, be submerged. The man had simply noted an Instance of that little under stood prescience manifested by certain lnseots and animals, a better knowledge of which might even be of service to our national weather bureau. It was only at his death that he revealed his secret. —R., ln tho New York Post.

Prof. Joseph Fandrey, 821 South Broadway, Los Angeles, Cal.: Dear Sir—l wish to write and thank you for your wonderful cure of my caso of rupture which you have been treating. Since you pronounced me cured on Jan uary Ist and discarded my truss, I must say that I do feel that I am absolutely cured, for since I have been going without a truss I feel as well as I j>ver did ln my life and have no signs of any weakness. I think your cure all the more remarka ble. for when I ruptured myself two of tho best physicians said I would never get over it without an operation. That was over four years ago, and today I am a well man, and wish to say to those whom It may con cern, that when I was tempted as a last resort to try your truss I found It a per fection o_,comfort. 1 have tried a great many kinds of store trusses and have found them all more or less Instruments of torture, so that 1 felt that In your truss I really found a bless ing. I earnestly request that all who wish will call on me and I shall be only too glad to explain tho advantages of your truss and treatment. So again let me thank you for your cure; also for your kind care while taking your treatment. Yours respectfully, ARTHUR M DOUGALL.

TESTIMONIAL January 5,1897. To the Public: I take this means of ex pressing my thanks to Dr. Wong Him of 039 Upper Main street for having cured me of kidney and stomach trouble which caused me great prostration. I was unable to get a good night's sleep for about three years, and. acting under theadvlce of the best doctors of Chicago, I came here to ge* well on the climate, but kept getting gre. ually worse, until I was told to try Dr. Wong Him. and by the aid of his wonder ful life-giving herbs I can say that In three months' time 1 am a new woman and feel stronger than I ever did. Any person wish ing me to certify this can find me. 716 North Marengo avenue. Pasadena. MISS KLEMME, To 'he Public: 1 take pleasure In tes tifying to my marvelous recovery under the treatment of Dr. Wong Him of 639 Coper Main street. Los Angeles, from a number of stubborn aliments, among which were chronic siokheadeches, dys neD«ia and kindred stomach troubles, heart affection and kidney disease. But what I consider this physician excelled ln so far as my case Is concerned, was ln the restoration of my eye service. Astigma tism coupled with other disorders, was my affliction In this respect, and. although a number of well-known skilled oculists In some of the larger cities of this country advised me I should always have to de nend upon glasses and receive but poor ser vice even then. Dr. Wong Hlm's remedies have enabled me to abandon totally the uso of any artificial help to sight, and my eyes continue to give such service, both for near work and distant, a 9 Is truly wonderful. To the skill and remedies of the physician named can alone be attrib uted a revolution in my physical condition throughout that pussies those who knew of the "Incurable" character of my af flictions.
