Jatnee R- Keeney, “and for this reason I’accepted the chairmanship of the com mittee on distribution of works on Personal Magnetism and Hypnotism for the American College of Sciences of Philadelphia. “The real secrets of Personal Magnetism and Hypnotism have always been jealously guarded by the few who knew them and kept them from the masses of the people. One who understands these sciences has an inestimable advan tage in the race of life. I want to put this information in the hands of every ambitious man and woman in this country. "The American College of Science has just appropriated SIO,OOO to be used in printing books for free distribution, and if this does not supply the demand it will appropriate SIO,OOO more. The books are absolutely free. They do not cost you a single cent. "Tell me what kind of work you are engaged in; or, if sick, the disease from which you suffer, and I will send you the book which will put you on the road to success, health and strength. It matters not how successful you are. I will guarantee to help you achieve greater success. The work which I will send you, is from the pens of the most eminent specialists of the country; it is richly il lustrated with the finest half tone engravings, and is intensely interesting front start to finish. It has been the means of changing the whole current in the lives’ of hundreds of persons who were ready to give up in despair. You can learn home in a few days and use personal magnetism in your dally work without the knowledge of your most intimate friends. You can use it to influence others; you can use it to keep others from influencing you. You can positively cure the most obstinate chronic diseases and banish all bad habits. "If you have not met with the business or social success which you desire; • if you are not successful in winning and holding friends; if. you are sick and Are tired of taking drugs that do not cure; if you care to develop your memory or any ofiher mental faculty to a higher state of perfection; or lastly, if you wish to possess that subtle, invisible, intangible power that sways and rules the minds of men, you should write me today and let me send you a free copy of ’ our new book.

NEW YORK, Nev. 9.r-The Chronlele re port for «he week referred to the effect of killing frost at .a number of places, which was newi 'to many in the trade. In faet the shewing was a pretty poor one but the persistent tteties es bear leaders to discour age buyers in the pretended belief in an enor mous crop has been e great obstacle to the support which conservative people feel the market deserves fltatlstieally the eltuatien is strong and If All wo hear aa t» the ex tent .of the, short Interest la true we ehall witness a bUll market of magnitude in the course of time. True believers in a erep Qf 'over 11,666.666 Are numerous *but these who eannet see over 10,566.666 or less are equally' numerous and the latter have tbe advantage of a small movement so far and the additional advantage that everything points to a top crop of small dimensions even under meet favorable weather conditions the remaining of the season. In the Liverpool market yes terday prices were a point higher. Tbe ehanees are for a decrease in movement the coming week although it is too early to expect mudh falling off in receipts jtfst yet. New York opened at an advance es 1 to 3 points on small dealings. Both sides were extremely cautious but boar houses were advising the customers of the possibility of a better mar ket in view of the decline already estab lished which they believed was all that should be looked for taking into consider ation the faet that receipts have been heavy and that the top crop question was one of uncertainty. Port receipts estimated for the day at 45.006, against 31,000 last year. Much colder weather was Indicated for the south west. Weekly Cotton Crop Statement. NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 9.

Nov. 9.—Wheat-Selling of wheat proved a feature of late dealings yes terday and more profit taking wae In evidence this morning. Wheat has had a substantial ad vance this week for the first time in about two months and a great many operators were con tented with the profits shown and at the same time unwilling to continue their Interest over Sunday. Abroad there was no change in prices and the market here opened at about last night's level. The selling, however, soon filled the buying orders and prices lost ground later In the morning. There was no weakness tn the tone during the first hour and the decline of %c failed to change the tempe rof the av erage trader. A similar reaction in nearly all grains in Chicago carried prices lower at one time, but reports from the west were not what ceuld be called of a bearlah nature. Aa thia Is still the seasen of Increasing supplies and of wheat abundance, it is to be expected that offerings of wheat will Increase considerably as a result of the advance In prices. The price has gained 3 cents a bushel of late. Many thou sands of bushels of wheat In the next month will be sold at this figure, which was held at a lower level. For this reason operators do not look for a sudden advance at this time of the year. Prices appear to tend downward, a high er level with wheat attracting more attention as the season advances. The situation is more encouraging than otherwise and a broader spec ulation is anticipated when Argentine and Russian news ean be verified. December wheat here sold at 79%c, or back to the low price of yesterday. In Chicago the same option sold at 72%e. In the northwest receipts were 798 cars, against 501 care last year. Corn and oats suffered under profit taking smales, as did wheat, though the tone of both was extremely steady. Oats continue to be actively traded In with fancy prices looked for In both coarse grains before the new crop. Ex ports of wheat this week were 5.489,645 bushels, against 3,555,507 bushels last year and since July Ist 112,000,000 bushels, against 86,000,000 bushels last year. Corn exports were 708.284 bushels, against 8,287.827 bushels last year and for the season 17,447,000 bushels, against 59,463,- 000 bushels last year. Sugar and Coffee Quotatlona. NEW YORK.

Dun A Co.’s review says: Little relief has been afforded the leading manufacturing industry in the matter of transporting facilities. In fact, the situa tion on the whole Is less satisfactory since in ability to secure coke has brought about the banking of some furnaces. . This In turn tends to harden the market for pig iron, though no actual alteration in prices nas’ occurred ex cept at Philadelphia, where 25 cents a ton more is readily paid. As this Industry Is considered the best business baropi©er, pres ent conditions and future prospects are cer tainly most encouraging, for-’ ordete are abun dant and plants enlarging capacity in order to handle the growing business Textile mills in New England are busy and there is no longer any fear of labor con troversy at Fall River. Prim cloths have ceased to be inflated, standard widths re suming the former quotation of 3 cents and meeting with a fair demand. Domestic buy ing of all staple cottons is seasonably quiet and the views of exporters are still below those of sellers. Recent declines In the raw , material have not weakened prices, as there was no commensurate advance in goods when the cotton market was rising. Reports from the south indicate that spindles are well oc cupied. ..... Weather conditions were the chief faetsra in determining price changes of staple prod ucts. Low temperature :in grain growing states brought a higher .level of quotatlona. corn rising 23 cents above the figure, ruling at the corresponding date last year, and 26 eenta over 1899. These advances of more' than 56 per cent are far in exceae of the ratio' of loss in production and establishes a fletitioas price level which curtailed Atlantic exporta to 642.142 bushels for the week,- against 2,526.176 bushels last year and 3.458,164 two years ago. On tbe other hand, wheat is moving out freely at both coasts, shipments from the United States for the week amounting to 5,561.472 bushels, against 8.210,184 bushels in the same week of 1900 and 3,927.203 in 1899. Vigorous milling and foreign demands caused a fair advance In prices to about last year’s figure, despite the difference in output. Cotton weakened still further, port and In terior movements indicating a better crop than was anticipated. At the lower-price, hawr ever, exports are heavy and tend to prevent any serious reaction. Failures for the week numbered 243 in the United States, against 201 last year, and 53 In Canada, against 18 last year. , j McCullough Broa.’ Fruit and Produce Letter. - • ATLANTA. Nov. 9 —The hekvl«at movement of Florida oranges has Aiore or lesa demoral ised prices, especially on the poor qualities of stock that are poorly colored and aour. The market is but little changed on apples. Receipta are normal, with prices high, con sidering the poor quality of stock. Coeoanuts are moving slow with, no ehanga in price. , . . The cool weather prevailing has retarded the sale of live poultry thereby authorizing a de cline in prices.
