Others of this group were bought for Lon don account and gained in price. There were times during the day when prices were generally below last night's close and there were evidences of heavy realiz- I lng in some stocks. The volume of the dealings was smaller by over 40.000 shares : than yesterday, but was rather better distributed, though the grangers, Chica go Gas, Bay State Gas and Sugar absorb ed about three-fifths of the total dealings. An aggressive advance in-North western. which was resumed after a dajes halt, carried that stock up 2 points to 1171i, and was a sustaining influence in the whole market. The grangers also main tained their strong upward tendency and tneir potent innuence m tns marnet under heavy dealings and In spite of some alarmist reports of damage to crops. The belief in good crop prospects which ad vanced the price of this group, was an influence on nearly every railroad proper ty in the west which is dealt in on the exchange. -St. Paul's third week state ment showing an increase in gross earn ings of over $22,000 was an encouraging factor. This road's earnings have been greater each week In the present month than in the corresponding week of any year since 1S93. Forecasts of May state ments of the granger roads give sugges tions of a favoraple showing and. have helped the advance. There Is reported some movement of i currency of small de nomination to some interior points, or small proportions as yet, but which is looked upon as indicating a revival of business activity. The strength of the market is almost entirely due to confi dence in the general outlook, but a num ber of individual stocks were strong on account of special causes, as Tobacco, Bay State Gas, Rubber, preferred, and Leather, preferred. Sugar was erratic, remaining somewhat below yesterday's close most of the day junder pressure to realize, but rising to y above yesterday s close in the final transactions. Small losses are shown in some of ' the lower priced southwesterns, 'a number of the less prominent VariderbUt stocks and In some other special eaaea, but these only extend to a point in the case of! Erie, first preferred, and East River Gas, i the latter 1. Otherwise gains were general. In the grangers, outside of Northwestern, Rock Island led with a gain of 1.

ANOTHER BOUNDARY DISPUTE With Great Briialn Over Oak Point Island in Rainy Lake Gold Deposits Found There. : DuluCh, Minn., June 24. Gold hus been discovered on Oak Point island in Rainy lake, which will, undoubtedly lead o an international 'boundary dis pute between Great Britain land the United States. According7 to maps of the geological survey, 4he Island is In Canadian 'territory, ibut according to the wording of the treaty of Ghent, the island is a part of the state of Minne sota. Canada has issued patents to sev eral valuable mining locations on the island and vigorous protests are being sent to Washington by American jros ipectors. The miners throughout ; the Rainy lake districts are considerably wrought up over the (matter aaid there is 'probability of trou'ble unless some thing is done, f The way things now stand, the Unijted States loses entire control even of her waters in Rainy lake, as according to the geological sur vey the United States cannot get . a boat in to Rainy lake without first going into Canadian waters. This is. a direct violation of the treaty. The Three Hun dred islands boundary dispute is of minor importance compared to .this. Maher and Sharkey to Fight to a I iaish 'New York, June 24.

Bellamy's Drug Store.- STATErPRESS. Governor Russell believes that if the 1 state executive were given power to con vene a court immediately upon the cap ture of a man charged with such crime as usually provokes lynching, that trial and execution might be speedy and the danger of lynching would be greatly lessened. That would cut no figure with such a negro lover as he is. As soon as the trial was over and a republican judge or solici tor cr negro political boss recommended their pardon we believe he would take great pleasure in turning him loose. Within the history of the1 state Governor Russell undoubtedly cares less about pro tecting the homes and firesides of people than any man that ever occupied the executive chair if there is a black brother in the woodpile. Oxford Ledger. - Every democrat must be "a free trader" in the sense that he accepts the doctrine that the government can levy a tariff tax only for purposes of revenue, and every democrat must favor "a tariff for reve nue only" in the sense that revenue can be the only justifiable excuse for a tariff. In other words, If the United States en joyed a sufficient income from property of their own, like Peru from its guano beds, the levying of a tariff tax, jof an Internal revenue tax, cr of any other kind of tax, would be little short of a crime. No democrat- who believes In the strict con struction of the constitution and such be lief is the test, as it was the origin, of democracycan be anything else than a "free trader" or "a tariff for revenue only" man, in the sense above described. But if by "free trader" is meant one who. in face of the government's need for reve nue,. favors the abolition of duties on im ports and the support of the government entirely by internal taxation, then demo crats can differ on this question, and still be democrats. Fayetteville Observer. We believe every word of the story. It is exactly like both of them. Butler makes no bargain of which he is not the chief beneficiary, nor enters into any com pact except for gain or vengance. Last winter he fought Pritchard to the death; fought his re-election to the senate with every resource at his command, but failed to defeat him. This contest over, the next thing to be looked forward to Is his own re-election, and in due time he seeks terms of peace from his colleague, whom he sought by every means at his com mand to dereat, and, according to the current tory, gets them. We have said that this is like both of them. It is like Butler, because he makes no deal that does not give him the long end of the rope. It is like Pritchard because it be trays the weakness which hag marked him ever since he became conspicuous in politics. A man of high personal courage, exhibiting a nerve tn personal contests which has made him the admiration or the mountains, he has been seen before now jto weaken in politics before weak lings like Butler. It does not astonish us to hear that he has weakened again. Charlotte Observer. High. Low. Clos. 70i,i 64 66 24 24 25 17 17 70 66 24 25 2C 69 64 66 24 24 25 70 I 64 66 . 24 25 26 Free Pills.

Baron Dhanis last year enlisted 6.000 men in the Congo Free State to take part tn a secret expedition. The British eovernment allowed a num ber of Its hussar troops to join the expedi tion, but it was officially denied that an Anglo-Belgian movement had been con certed against the Mahdists. The gen oral imnression. however, was that this force was intended to act in conjunction with the Anglo-Egyptian expedition " up the .
