Tn March of Information conecrnlngsn Alleged
rpinarknlilovcnt that happened In the Kainoinl
Hotel , ronierof Hlxtecnth and Websterstu , the
reporter made hln way to that place and met the
engineer , Mr. KiiRrno Mather , who. It had been
rt'ported , was closely connected with the event.
" 1 iinileratunil you were very near death's door ,
Mr. Mnther. " observeil the writer. "That was
true , " was the reply.o nnd , after a moment's
thought , ho concltulril tlmt he would bo ufiling
to giro for publication all the factH connected
with the event.
"To begin nt the beginning " "Well , T can't
rny Just when my trouble originated , but It was
Bomi'thlng over two yearn ngo Hint I llrnt uottcitd

could ImiiKlne. "
"Can you tell mo how It began ? "
tMATMKlt.
"No. not exactly. My trouble seemed plight a
flrnt , anil I think w as caused by a cold , and 1 hail
no Idea that It wa going to tl reaten my life , be
came I paid uo attention to thu cold , lly anil by
I found my nose would ston up. Ill s t on one skip ,

Huuilen attacks of illzzlneiw ; especially would
this bo the CHSO when 1 would ttonp down and
then rise up quickly. I found that the mucus
would drop from the back part of my 1100 Into
my throat and thut.I think , caused the trouble
In my Htomach. At time * 1 would raise conitd-
ablephleirm. 1 was sick anyway and was al
most an Invalid for a time , and 1 suppose that
thu fear that my lungs were directed made me
still more despondent and gloomy than I other
wise would have been. "
"And the remarkable event "
"la my recovery. That Is what I am glad to
tell you about , hwanso I think It Isof Interest to
the people tci know * that there Is a euro for such
a disease , About two months a jo I vfslted and
placvd myself under Dr. McCoy's treatment.
You ran heo the results for yourself. I began to
Improve ut once , and rout 'nueil to Improve right
along until today I feel us much like a new mnn
as the difference between daylight and dark
ness. "
"I can. " continued Mr. Mather. 'Vay there Is
no doubt la my mind but that Dr. McCoys treat
ment Is both prucltcal and scientific , and that
and that every promise he makes to his patients
are fully and tlatthfnlly carried out on his part. "
Mr. Mather , ns above stated , can bo found at
the Kxnioud hotel , corner Slxteenh and Webster
htH.where ho will corroboiato the nbove. The
doctor respectfully Invites the public to Invest
igate Iliu truthfulness of the htutomentsho pub-
bMie.s from week to week In thu dally papers.
IT 18 NOT "WE CAN"
Cut the Proposition Is 'We Have
llune It. "
Ono ot the local dallies not long Mnro hnd the
following : That Ur.MtCoy's offices are both day
and evening thronged with patients has been a
mutter of surprise to ijome. who murk the fact
that although he advertises , his advertisements
are chnriicteilsed by no alluring promises or
guarantees. They had expected , doubtless , that
hlH course would bo similar to that pursued by
thu advertising unuck ; tlmt ho would promise
to. euro everything right and left , nud ufter
making n few hundred dollars leave the ton u.
On thu contrary , helms not promised , but per
formed. From out , of the hundreds that ho in
treating the statement of onu patient has been
Riven each week for the iost : eight mouths-a
Mat.'uieut to the offo < t that a complete euro hud
been vlTocteil by Dr. McCoy's treatment.
Tliosts who have made these statements have
not bet-n obscure or unknown. In mnnv cases
they huvu been well-known people , standing e.s-
iwclnlly high In the commuultjVflielrstatoments
havn been voluntary and the Inquiry they elicited
shows that they became matters of general In
terest.
Some time since a lady said : "I would like very
much to use lr. McCoy's treatment , but nni
afraid to consult for fear he would publish my
imm . " Now , to nil such persons let the writer
here M y tlmt Dr. McCoy does not publish ( un
person s name without llrst nsklni ? and obtain-
fau the person's consent. Again , he does not
publish one-tenth or oue-huudreth part of his
cases , nor thu letters from hl.s grateful patients
whom he has treated. Dr. Mi Coy publishes u
few statements of Hasen trentod by him. Ho
lets his w-urlc speak for Itself. No one need be
afraid of the doctor's publishing his name with
out tlrst asktnguud obtaining his consent.

Quotations.
CHICAGO rnouucE MARKET.
CIIICAOO , Feb. It. [ Special Telegram to
the Ur.K. ] The whcut tnnrkct opened this
morning with considcraljlo activity and some
show of strength. Foreign advices were en
couraging. The Now York market was steady
nnd advancing und exporting houses were
buying wheat hero and there was good buyIng -
Ing curly for New York account. The advance
wus small , however , nnd after the first hour
even this wus nearly nil lost und the pit bo-
cuino lifeless and dull , with no feature what
ever to the market. Tbero was said to bti
some selling later for foreign account , but
business for outside was of small volume and
nothing interesting Is to bo expected from
local traders on a Saturday. Hutchinson wag
both buying and selling wheat , but as he
bought nt higher prices than ho sold and
sparingly it was thought that the pur
chases wera ruthcr to sustain -the
prices for some reason of his own
than because ho wanted the wheat.
This i view was rather corroborated
by his selling 250,000 bushels of May In ont
lot to Lindblooin at SOJjtfiMle when 81o was
bid In the pit at the sumo"time. . May wheat
opened at Slo and after soiling'at 80 > ( < 8lc
gradually worked up toSl fe , then slowly de
clined , touching buc shortly before the
close , but u small reaction followed and the
close was at 81 ( < Sl } < e. Juno whcut oi > ened
with 81Xe bid , sola at 81 ( gSlc , and closed
With nn entire.range of prices covered by
} { c not much was to be expected from the
corn market and there was not much done.
For this state of affairs the crowd united to
blame Hntchtnson. That erratlo trader
odcrcd to buy ull they wanted to sell for May
delivery at 51\c nnd sell them all they
wanted to buy nt.M c. With only a moder
ate amount of business to be done for outside
account such a proiKisitlon was a dcadencr to
trade. The sentiment seemed to bo rather
bullish and the light receipts wore encourag
ing to holders. There wus good buy ing early ,
some of it by exporting houses , but
prices never advanced more than Jc
above the opening figures und the
close was a trifle lower. Mai' corn opened at
51J c , ranged between that price and 51c
during ull the curly part of the session , then
advanced to 6t e ana fell backtoSWc ,
where It closed. Juno corn openi-d at r > 19 ( jt
GlKc. The high point was 514@31o bid ,
the low Bljtfc and the close 51 } c.
There was a very quiet but steady market
in oats , with fluctuations amounting to } { c.
May oats opened and closed at 31j c , which
was fractionally above yesterday's close , and
during the session ranged between 31) c and
Jll c. Juno oats ranged between 3l'o and
81Xe , closing nt the last named price.
The provision trade closed the week in a
rather slow manner. For cash delivery there
was some Increase In the demand , but
speculation was under an average volume and
without special feature. Lard was depressed
n little by free offerings by a promi
nent trader and closed 2 c lower than
last night's prices. In suort ribs a decline ol
2JlR5c ( was also suffered. Pork was steadj
nnd unchanged. In the moderate future
business transacted May was the favorite
delivery. It sold for pork nt Sl4.3-y4@14.40 ,
for lard at $7.80@7.8T , and for short ribs at
* 7.00@7.orj . The same month closed for
short ribs und lard ut the lowest prices
touched and for pork at $14.35. For neurci
deliveries than May , final quotations stood al
$14.10 for February nnd March pork. $7.05 foi
February nuu March lard , * 7.12K for Feb
ruary short ribs and $7.45 for March shorl
ribs. Junu lard was quoted ut the close at
$7.SK nd Juno short ribs at $7.07 . Cash
lard sold quite fairly.

FINANCIAL.
NEW YOIIK , Feb. 11. [ Special Telograu
to the Ben. ] STOCKS There was hardl ;
enough business on the New York stock ex
changu to create the impression that thcr
WHS u market , the sales being 27tOO ! share
for two hours , the lightest over known. St
Paul furnished 2,500 shares and Ruiidlni
4,800 shares. Outside of these two stock
nothing of consequence was noted. The bij
traders left the market In disgust , dcclurini
It too stupid to pay attention to , and said Urn
those who depended upon u living on th <
dully fluctuations found decidedly scant ;
picking. The pools that were said to b'
working numerous specialties did nothing
for there wus no use trying to trado. Rot
cutting stories from the west continue uumer
ous , the .situation instead of Improving i
getting worse ana the Indications are that th
end is us far off us over. The Northwester !
made a 20 cent first-class rate to St. Paul
Minneapolis and Duluth und the roads run
ning to the Mississippi river quote a 80 > f con
rate. Packing house products are now takoi
from the Missouri to Chicago for 13 > tf cents
and live stock from all Iowa points nt $35 i
car. Operators have become hardened tc
thorato cutting stories ami no reduction tin
roads can muUo causes any astonishment
The bank statement , showing a decrease ii
Uio reserve of $ J,45l,500 and 'un Increase , ii
the loans of W.fitW.TOO , stirred operators up i
little and trading boeurno a trifle more aul
mated before the close. The gcnrral tone wai
bearish and declines of K@X per cent wore
recorded. The decrease In reserves of th
New York banks was regarded as a bcnrisl
argument , but the largo Increase In leant
shows that Instead of the money bcmglockcc
up In banks it Is finding employment In yurl
ous channels that will In the end probably re
suit advantageously to the bulls. The ROBS ! )
Is that St. Paul will lower Its dividend to ' (
per cent , and In some quarters It Is predicted
that It will pass It entirely. The strength 1 :
has shown of late comes in a measure froir
London , where prices are relatively hlghci
than In New York. Speculation with Chi
eago stock houses was never lighter. Th <
legitimate brokerage transactions do no
average over 500 to 1,000 shares a day , whlul
is hardly enough to pay the expenses of those

Weekly Trade Itevlow.
Commercial circles in this city hnvo boon
quite active during the present wcck lthough
the volume of business done Is not appar
ently as great as the week preceding. Whole
sale firms are for the most part engaged In
replenishing their stocks to meet demands
for early spriuij delivery which are even
now beginning to come In , and nearly all ot
tha class mentioned are unanimous in tho-
opinion that the present season wlll be n most
prosperous one. At present the tone of the
market on all lending lines is very healthy
n-ul while values In other cities have fluctu
ated to u considerable extent , prices on nearly
all classes of general merchandise have re
mained nearly steady. Prices on grain have
remained steady during the week with onu
exception , rye easing off 'a point. While
there is not much of n demand for grain on
this market at present the outlook Is very en
couraging for u new mill going into opera
tion in a few days with n capacity of font
hundred barrels. Otnahu had , previous to the
absorption of the Her distillery by the trust ,
enjoyed an unchanged market on spirits , but
since that event prices have changed in uni
son with other markets. Hides and fun are
unchanged with but little doing. Other lines <
of general merchandise arc moving out moru
freely. It was believed that when the cut In
rates was established that prices would un
dergo n change , but none has yet 'occurred.
Groceries and dry goods are In about the
same condition as during last week.
