Wheat Dull Coin Btrong and Higher- Pork Products Firm at Better Prices Kv Telegraph to the Morning Star Chicago,, September 6. The last halt hour's trade in wheat to-day saved the market from being characterized as one ot the dullest on record. Up until that time the range covered but, one fourth of a cent range, whilst a good stiff undertone to prices was quite ap parent. The announcement of unusually small estimates of to-morrow's arrival started the crowd to .covering. The Continental cables, with advances at all poms except Antwerp, having arrived a short time previous had put the temper of the trade in a fit state for buying, so that when shorts and sellers of calls un dertook to cover they had as accessories the scalpers and the bulls generally. The news was for the most part in fa vor of higher prices. The strength -in corn exerted a good influence in pre serving the tone of wheat early. De cember wheat opened at 56 c, advanced to 57c, closing at the outside &lc higher than yesterday. Cash wheat was steady. Sales were made mostly at yes terday's prices. The strength in futures caused corresponding firmness in the cash market later. Corn The tip that the Government would give a very low average in the condition of corn in its forthcoming re port and fixing the figures from 55 per cent, to 59 per cent., against 69.1 per cent, on the tenth of August, which has been in circulation for several days, was the subject of much talk in this market to-day. It received great credence and caused considerable buy ing, with the result of producing a ma terial advance in prices and a turn un dertone to the action. The belief that the report has leaked had many be lie vers, it being remarkable that those people who seemed to be posted on pre vious occasions were the ones that had the figures to-day. The close was strong within c of the top. May corn opened from 5455c, sold at 54c, advanced to 56c closing at 56igc. Trading in cash corn was steady at unchanged prices. The close was nominally higher with the futures. i ne strengtn in corn was renected in oats, the trade here, however, being of a lifeless character until the final activity it the other grains led to some covering oy shorts. The close was firm at a gain of H4c over yesterday for May. Cash oats were strong, prices ruling J4C higher than yesterday. Provisions At the opening of the market for the product the tone was good and prices were bound upward, but the packers were unanimous in their op position to an advance, their offerings carrying values on very materially Later in the session the sudden spurt in gram acted sympathetically on provi sions and a partial recovery was made, The close was 10c higher than yesterday for January pork, 2c higher each for January lard and ribs. CONDITION OF BUSINESS.! - 1 THE MANUFACTURER'S RECORD SAYS IT IS ENCOURAGING. Trade Revival In the South Hew Indus- rial Enterprise --I Inoreeaing Prosperity Attracting Attention of Capitalists and Manufacturers. rv Telesrrapa to ins Moraine Star. Baltimore, Sept. 6 The Manufac turer s Record cA this week says: The encouraging condition of business and the extent of its revival in the South are shown by the bank clearings of several Southern cities, notably Birmingham, Louisville, Memphis and Jacksonville. At the three cities last named the in crease for the week ending August 25th, was 202, 189 and 80 per cent, respect ively over the corresponding week 01 '93. while at Birmingham the clearings increased over 400 per cent., indicating to what extent manufacturing industries are being affected. Srjecial reports received Dy tne man ufacturers' Record during the past week include the construction ot iorty mnes of new railroad in Alabama and twelve miles in Tennessee, the opening of three more coal mines in Alabama, and the formation of a line of twenty-five barges for the Mississippi river trade; two steamship lines, one coastwise and one to the West Indies; a number of sales of land in small tracts to settlers and the sale of 30,000 tons of Tennessee phos phate by a single corporation. 1 hroughout tne entire;ibouth there is a better feeling in business circles than has been seen for the last two or three years, and reports from all over the country show that the increasing pros perity of the South is attracting wide at tention from capitalists, manufacturers and farmers. The rehabilitation of Southern rail roads is making good progress, and with earnings steadily increasing there is a tendency towards large expenditures for the improvement of road beds, an in crease in rolling stock and for the build- ng of new lines, especially short feeders and branch roads. Among the leading industrial enter prises reported for the week, are a $100,- WW phosphate company, organized in Baltimore to operate in Florida; a $30,- 000 phosphate company, $10,000 ma chine works, water works and a flour mill in Georgia; a packing house, shoe factory, brick works, electric light plant ana quarrying company in Alabama; a $100,009 manufacturing company and $50,000 boat building company in Loui siana; a barrel factory, knitting mill and flour mill in North Carolina; a $350,- uuu cotton mm addition to one of the most prosperous mills in the State; a quarrying company, sewerage plant, electric light plant and gold mine in South Carolina; water-works, paper mill and wood-working plant in Ten nessee, and a large number of miscella neous enterprises in all the different States. An increase in building in terests is reported and a (number ot large buildings are to be constructed in various parts ot the South, including a $150,000 jail and three hotels in Georgia.

Tn Hhmufulin at K cue rkrlaana In Convention at Hew Orleans Declare in Favor of Allianoe With the Bepublican Party on National Issues. LBj Telegraph to lhe Horning Star 1 New Orleans, La., Sept. 6. The Sugar Planters' Convention in this city to-day was the most remarkable gather ing in many years, and the first serious break in the Democratic party in twenty years is now. actually threatened. The convention declared in favor of an alli ance with the Republican party on national issues, and two ana possibly three congressional districts, comprising the sugar region are endangered to the Democrats. There were possibly three hundred representative men present at the convention, and as nearly all of them are men of wealth and large influence and with power to control a consider able following, the action they have taken cannot be underestimated. The meeting was called to order by Richard McCall, one of the leading planters of the Third district, and Mr. E. N. Pugh, of Ancension, a near relative of Justice Nichorls was made chairman. Mr. John Dymond was the only speaker who strenuously opposed seces sion from the Democratic party. Messrs. Howell, Weems, Kernechan and Wilk inson, brother ot L-oi lector Wilkinson, were appointed a committee to propose a plan for the collection of the bounty on this year s crop. The committee re ported and their report was adopted. The committee then took up the po litical question. Messrs. McCall, Pugh, Kernechan, Ware and others advised an alliance with the Republican party. They said that they had been betrayed by the Democrats and only hope of protection for sugar lay in the joining of hands with the Republicans. They realized the full import of breaking with the Democratic party, but feeling that the negro ques tion was no longer an issue and that the white race would forever govern tne Southern country, they said they had reached the conclusion that self-preser vation required an affiliation with a party that would give them the protection necessary for the prosperity of the in dustry which is the backbone of the State. A committee was appointed on reso lutions and it may be said that the gen tlemen on it are among the wealthiest and best known in the State. The committee reported elaborate resolutions, setting lortb that the white people ot Louisiana and planters for many years had been loyal to the Dem ocratic party, through victory and de feat, but that the State had been be trayed, and a blow struck at its chief industry by that party, that threatened its absolute ruin, and that the nomina tion of protection candidates and their election had become a necessity. The resolutions were adopted by a rising vote, it was decided to meet again on the 17th of September, in this city, when the plans of the sugar planters will be perfected. It was also decided to nomi nete candidates in the three sugar dis tricts, and to affiliate with the Re publicans.

Liverpool advanced 1-lGd on the spot, and two and a half to three points for future delivery, with spot sales of 12,000 bales. In Manchester yarns were less active, as high prices checked busi ness; some makes of cloth were dearer, The Bombay receipts for the week were 4,000 bales, against 3,000 for the same time last year. Total since January 1st, 1,548,000 bales, against 1,519,000 dur ing the same time last year. New Orleans advanced three to four points, but lost this and declined three points.

To-day's features : After a trifling advance early in the day due to a rise in Liverpool and some covering prices de clined owing to general realizing. The weather South was more favorable. The receipts at the ports were not so large as had been expected, but the arrivals at Houston were liberal. It was a narrow market and a little realizing offset any bullish factors for the moment. New Orleans was selling. The cotton goods situation is steadily improving. Man chester is stronger and the receipts at the ports are disappointing to the bears. lhe r inancial and Commercial Chron icle issued its September cotton crop re port.

THE CHOLERA SCARE Ond of the Physicians in Attendance Bays It is a Genuine Case Ho Change in the Condition of the Quarantined Peo ple. Br Telegraph to the Morales Star, Cumberland, Md September 6. Dr. C. R. Ofar, one of the attendants of Peter Waltherfwho died last night from a supposed attack of cholera), in an in terview this morning states that the case was one of genuine Asiatic cholera the genuine epidemic character of 1854. Washington, September 6. Dr. E. Duke, Secretary of the Board of Health, of Cumberland, Md., has tele graphed the Marine Hospital Service in regard to tne supposed case ol Asiatic cholera discovered on a train arriving there, in the person of John Peter Wal ther, an immigrant from Bavaria, who sailed from Bremen recently. The Sur geon General has called for full particu lars. There have been no cases of cholera reported from Bavaria to the Marine Hospital service, and the surgeon Gen eral is inclined to regard the case as one of the many isolated cases resembling cholera which occur from time to time. Had it been true Asiatic cholera it is extremely improbable that the victim could have been afforded temporary re lief so as to enable him to pass quaran tine, as the report states. Pittsburg, Pa., September 6. A careful investigation made this morn ing by the Leader, of the facts surround ing the reports of the death of an im migrant, John Walther, at Cumberland last night, gives no ground for the asser tion that death was due to Asiatic cholera. Dr, J. Guv McCandless, of the Bureau of Health, stated this morn ing that be had received a re port from the inspectors sent to look after the quarantined companions of the dead man and that every member of the party was well and no signs of the least sort ol disorderly conduct were evi dent. Superintendent Baker, of the Pitts burg Bureau of Health, was also seen and stated that he had a report that there was no change in the condition of the quarantined people and no signs of any disease. Superintendent Baker left for Shaner station at 10 o'clock to look after the quarantined immigrants and took with him an immense amount of disin fectants. Superintendent Patton, of the Balti more & Ohio Railroad, to whose ener getic course and prompt action are due all of the precautions taken, said that his report from Shaner was of a kind to allay all fear of cholera in the party quarantined there.

Chinese and Japanese Armies Conf renting Each Other in Core Operations De layed by Heavy Bains Japanese Threaten an Attack on Shanghai Advices lrom Haytl Alleged Attempt Against the Life of the President. By Cable to the Morning Star. London, Sept. 6. A Tokia dispatch to the Central News says that the last reports from the front tell of heavy rains which have impeded military operations. The streams of the Corean peninsula have risen rapidly and much of the adja cent low-land is partially flooded. The Japanese officers say it is not likely that any important battle will be fought until the floods subside. Occasional skirmishes have taken place, they say, but neither side has tried recently to bring about a decisive action. The Japanese regulars in Corea now number 30,000. Some 10,000 of these troops, comprising a strong Cavalry force, have been detailed for the scouting service and the protection of the main armies' lines of supply and communication. Some 18,000 Japanese occupy a strong position at Ping Yang. They have thrown up earthworks and mbunted heavy guns. The Chinese army, with about 20.000 men have taken a posi tion facing the Japanese. Scouting par ties from the two camps have met fre quently and each exchanged shots. The spirit of the Japanese troops is .said to be all that could be desired. The Mar quis of Saiongi, President of the Depart ment of Imperial Orders, has arrived in Corea with a large suite. His mission is to convey to the Corean King the con gratulations of the Emperor in view of Corea's achievement of her indepen dence. The Shanghai correspondent of the Central News says: "Otori, the Japanese Minister to Corea, has taken extreme measures to move the King ot Corea to grant a comprehensive railway concession in favor of Japanese contractors. Minister Otori is trying also to obtain exclusive mining rights for the Japanese. Despite Japanese de nials that there has been a general en gagement, many wounded are arriving at Seoul. It is impossible to learn from Japanese sources whether they were in jured in skirmishes or pitched battle. Paris, September 6 The Haytien Minister has received the following tele gram from Port Au Prince: There has been an attempt against the life of the President. The authors have been shot Perfect quiet prevails. London, Sept. 6. A Shanghai dis patch savs the Japanese have threatened to withdraw their promise not to molest Shanghai unless the Ktang-Nan arsenal there be closed. The motive for the threat is not apparent, but it is surmised that the Japanese are anxious to provoke British interference. The Kiang-Nan arsenal is now in a state of inactivity, and under any citcumstances its produc tive capacity is small. Coreans attacked fifty Japanese foragers recently, captured thirty and handed them over to the Chinese. The troops now coming from Japan are landed at Chemulpo. Twelve mountain guns and twelve mortars have been taken ashore at that point. l ne L-ninese neet was at wei-wei on September 4, and the Japanese was off the southern coast of Corea. Captain Von Hanneken has been ap minted Inspector ol the Chinese coast defences. The Tokio correspondent of the Cen tral News has added to his afternoon dispatch the statement that the reports of great Chinese victories in Corea arc pure fictions. London, Sept. 6.

Cf si a I . oo oay me various City Boards of Health. THE ANSWER HAS BEEN Fojj N D Evidence That Even Impre tables and Tainted Meat are ot o Bad m Food I ndlgexted. There has been a great deal said in the papers about adulterated foods Every large c.tv has a Board of Health that carefully inspects the fruits and vege tables that come into the city. This is an very well, but it does not reach the source of the trouble, from which men and nmn . v food is healthy if it ,s not rjj. gested. If the sweetest and freshest ve ro tables form acid or gas in the stomach they are poisonous. A boiling mum,. mass of food in the stomach th-,r , and cannot be digested becomrs Mmni rank poison, no matter how pure ad good the food may have been before it was eaten, so that the trouble is not so much with the foods as it is with our power of ditesting them and tun me them into pure blood, fleh m .t, nerve; brain and bone. What is the lesson f.-om these r and often unthought truths? Look ti your digestion ! Food will help y m i! it is the right kind, providing you nicest it. If not. any food will injure and poison. It is here that science has come to tbe rescue. The discoveiy of a pro cess of artificially digested food has act ually been made so that the stomach be comes relieved o! the necessity of over work, and so that perfect digestion can take place without rffsn The discovery of this pre-digested food has aroused a great deal of attentim m medical and scientific circles, and now that it is being manufactured and put up in a lorm to that people can 'obtain it, it has worked a revolution in the subject of foods. It is known to the public as Paskola. Increased weight. Ircedom from dyspepsia, and the pleasing ter.sa tion of healthy acting organs are certain to cc Jound by all who use th's great pre-digested food. This has been strikingly illustrated ;r. tbe case of Mrs. Charles Bock, who n sides at No. 284 24th street, Detroit, Mich. She said : I had been feeling sick lor live months. My strength and flesh were so fearfully reduced that I could not leave my room for' weeks. Mv petite was poor and it seemed .-.a though I could not find an, thing that wouid itstore my sirrrmh, appetite or beaith. My complex:'., d very sallow dunug this time, my ker eyes were surrounded by deep. bL h r.u cles, and mv nervons system was sr. badly shattered that the faintest r.oisi would send me into hysterics. - "One day while I was suffering very much and felt pretty despondent, mv husband br ught me a bottle oi that great pre digested food Pask' a. I commenced its use and in foui rlavs I not only ate heartily, but I earned. sufficient strength to leave my : r.i and lock after mv usual duties. By the time the first bottle was con sumed I had gained five pounds, the circles disappeared from around my eyes, and ray complexion showed i marked improvement. I continued the use of Pgslcoia K?-.d hav- gai. ti 14'; pounds, am attend rg to my household duties, and believe I owe it all to Pas kola, and that any others who may be suffering like mvseli may receive the same wonderful benefits." Such statements as the above confirm what the best scientists.doctdrs and ,rty sicians have already learned, namely., that Paskola, the pre digested luod, which is justly so popular, does accom plish what was never before knoj n in the history of the world. A pamphlet giving full particular re specting Paskola will be sent on applica tion to the Pre-Digested Food Co., 3ft Reade St., N. Y. City.
