New York, Dec. 14.—Another step w*as taken towards the establishment of a nominal stock market to-day after the proxysmßU fluctuations of Ihe recent dealings. But it developed in the course of the day that conditions were not favorable to a rapid return to the speculative mood existing before the break in the market. Towards the end of the day the market sunk into a dull and listless state not far from last night's close. There w*as nothing in the circumstances to account either for the morning ad vance or to the afternoon reaction further than the natural tendency of the market to readjust itself by a series of lessening fluctuations after such a commotion as that to which it has been subjected. Copper Still Keynote. Sensitiveness to the course of Amal gamated Copper was still preceptible, but not to such a supersensitive de gree as lately ‘and its yielding was the signal for the abandoment of opera tions of the rise. The attempts to move prices upward centered con spicuously in the coalers. Advances in a number of stocks in the group ex tended to 2 or 2% points. Atchison w*as the most conspicuous weak spot.

BISHOP TURNER AND THE FUTURE OF THE NEGRO. a; Hi* Atldres* Before the Georgia Con ference Outlines Hl* Changed View*. Millen, Ga.. Dec. 14.—The Georgia annual conference of the African M, E. Church, began its Sessions here to day. Over 300 ministers and delegates from all parts of South Georgia are in attendance. 7J.. Bishop H. M. Turner, of Atlanta is presiding. The Georgia, Is one of the oldest conferences of'-the A. M. E. Church. Owing to the prominence of many of the members, the proceed ings of the conference will be watch ed with much Interest’. Bishop Turner's annual address Is one of the features of the conference. All who know the bishop, are acquaint ed with th 9 fact, that he has hell gloomy views about the negroe’s fu ture in America. Tw'o weeks ago, Rev. Sam. P. Jones, wrote- to the Atlanta Journal, and Dr. Broughton preached a sermon, both of them on the race question. Their utterances attracted the attention of Bishop Turner, and for the first time In forty years, he is proclaiming that there is a bright future for the American negro. He gave utterance to the sentiment ex pressed in Rev. Sam Jones’ letter, and Dr. Broughton's sermon. There are 85,000 members of the A. M. E. Church in Georgia. They have established one of the best colleges In the South, in Atlanta, for the train ing of negro youth. Rev. J. S. Flip per, Is president of the college. There will be representatives from all the general departments of the church. These departments have head quarters in Washington, D. C., Phil adelphia, New York city, NashviHe, Jacksonville, and, Columbus. The conference will be In session one week. Bishop Turner will con duct a literary Institute each morn ing, for the purpose of Instructing the negro ministers In history, philosophy. Science, theology and chilrch govern ment. At the close of the conference, next Monday, Bishop Turner will appoint the preachers to their fields of labor for another twelve months. Temperance I**ne In Kllsaerald.

Weak Men Find Strength Here I wish T could meet In person, or have a letter from *ll the then I see on the street* whom t, as an experienced specialist, recognize a* being vitally weak—deficient in procreative power. J wish I could come in contact with tfhern because 1 know that f am In possession of a treat ment—a system. In fact, by which riny man who is weak, or who suffers from a disease that results in sexual weak ness, can be cured in a marvelously short time, and per manently. I mean this regardless of the age of ths man. for I have letters to prove that I have cured men whom other doctors said v.-sre Impotent; old men they were, true enough,but far from senile when the right treatment was given them, as J proved by results with my system of cure. I can do permanent good lo men who suffer from sexual Weakness, varicocele, puny psrts, stricture, dis charges, prematurity, urinary disorders, weak back, lack of staying power, loxt manhood and such complication* as rheumatism, kidney trouble, gout, constipation, thin blood, etc. 1 will cure the disease and build up the body so that there never will bes recurrence of the weakness.
