Women and Jewels,
Jewels, candy, flowers, man--that is

Jewels form a magnet of might? power
to the average woman. Even that
greatest of all jewels, health, s often
rained in the sternnoas efforts • o make
or save the money to purchase them. If

against the insiduous consequences of
coughs, colds and bronchial affections
by the regular use of Dr. Bosch* ie’s Ger

consumption in its early stages and heal
the affected lungs and bronchial tubes
and drive the dread disease from tho
system. It is not a cure all, but all

New York, Aug. 14.—Inquiries have
been made by The Tribune as to ths
stock of anthracite coal on hand at
several cities in the east with tho
following results:
New York city dealers say the
ply here has been practically exhaust
ed for weeks. The railroad compa*
idea have been able to deliver only a
few thousand tons a day recently, and
much of it is known as washed coal.
Retail price of coal in Jersey City
is $9 a ton, delivered, or $S at tho
yards, and orders are taken only con
ditionally. The dealers have agents
out purchasing wherever they can find
coal. None is coining in by the cars.
Borne have a meager reserve supply,
but this is kept for customers with
whom they have contracts. Orders for
thousands of tons have been pigeon
holed because* they cannot be filled.
Buffalo, N. Y., repoits that the Erie
railroads hillside is the only antin'*-
cite that can he bought there a; pres
ent. It sells for $5.05 per ton, and H
not the best quality of hard coal. The
Philadelphia and Reading, the Lehigh,
the Delaware and Hudson and the DeL
aware, l^ackawanna and Western rail
roads have all stopped the sale of an
thracite at their trestles and have
closed their local agencies, thereby
putting an absolute stop to their coal
business. The railroads arc mam
tabling the utmost secrecy regarding
their supplies, and even the Erie offi
cials refuse to say how much they
have on hand. All the leading coal
dealeis say the supply Is exceedingly
limited.
At Albany. N. Y.. the retail deal
ers have In stock not to exceed 2,000
tons of anthracite, which they are sell
ing at $0 to $0.25 a ton. The Dela
ware and Hudson company has about
1,000 tons in reserve at Delason. This
with 300 tons held by a wholesale
dealer, is all that can be counted oi
for Albany. It is known, says the Al.
bany correspondent, that tin* D«**3
ware and Hudson has eonsiderabl
coal, estimated as high as 50,000 tons,
on sidings along its Susquehanna divi
sion.
The Wilkesbarre, Pa., correspondent
says there is no general supply of an
thracite on hand at any point in th
coal region. That which i
being sold is some that th
companies are producing in their
washeries and some that is
obtained by individual concerns from
small coal pickings. The regular
dealers have none, and can get none.
Boston reports that no distress had
yet been felt, although the margin ol
the coal supply is not a pleasant oh
ject of contemplation. Ofie auth<*;
lty said three days ago that there ars
perhaps 26.000 i ns of coal within thtf
city limits. The dealers are doling
out their supply a ton here or two
tons them.
From Baltimore the report is that
coal dealers estimate the stock of an
thraeite here at 100,000 tons. This in
cludes all iu the local yards. The
supply is so low that at a meeting ol
the Retail Dealers’ association it wad
decided not to make any advances, and
the price remains $7.50 for rogula
size and $6.25 for pea coal
is imminent.
Washington, Aug. 14.—Under date
of Wednesday the 13th instant Min
ister Bowen, at Caracas, reports to the
state department that the situation
there is very critical. At the time of
filing his dispatch he had heard noth
ing from the Cincinnati or the Mali*
ettn. lie says the sacking of Bar
celona continues, and that much valu
able property is being destroyed.
At the navy department a cablegram
has been received from Commander
McLean reporting the arrival of th-
Cincinnati at Barcelona.
The Marietta is at Port of Spair
Trinidad, and is subject to tho orders
of Commander McLean.
Commander McLean’s dispatch to
the department was in part as follows:
“Barcelona occupied by revolution
ists. They have imprisoned all civ
il oilicials, and military officers are in
possession of entire district. Some
pillaging done, but everything now
quiet. Twenty-nine business houses
sacked; mostly foreign. Also 15 pri
vate dwellings.
he navy department also received
ty a eablegrom from Commander
McCrca, of the Machlas, dated St.
Haitien. Wednesday, announcing that
blockade established by Admiral
Killiek was admitted to be ineffectu
al and had been abandoned.

New York, Aug. 14.—Cabling from
Port of Spain, Trinidad, the Herald’3
correspondent says:
The fall of Barcelona into the hands
of the Venezuelan revolutionists
put renewed strength into their com
ma nder.
The committee here having charge
of the interests of the Matos party is
enthusiastic over the new success.
The revolutionist*) now hold the cus
tom ports, Ciudad de Bolivar, Guiria,
Cano. Colorado. Coro, Carupano and
Barcelona. It is probable that Cu
manna will be captured Thursday
In view of this situation the com
mittee purposes to address at once
a memorandum to foreign nations ask
ing that the revolutionists be recog
nized as bellgerants.
It is generally understood that
Great Britain and one other nation
have intimated that they favor grant
ing tho request, even in advance of its
presentation.
