S. D. , Dec. 3. ( Special. ) The
fefusal on the part of the auditor's offlco
to audit in full the claim of Attorney
Thomas Null for $250 , as one of the at
torneys for the railroad commission , will
bring tho" matter of the appropriation for
M.500 for that fund before the court of
claims for adjustment. After the refusal of
tbo auditor to Issue a warrant to C. S.
Palmer on the litigation fund , which action
was based on the fact of Palmer being a
member of the legislature which provided i
for the appropriation , and the further fact)1
that there was not enough In the fund for
the first year of the appropriation , other
vouchers wcro presented to the auditor , one
of which , that of Mr. Null , was drawn to
cover moro than half of the appropriation 1 !
lor the purpose of testing the position of
the atlL'ltor that only half of this upproprl-
atlon was available for the first year cov-
cred by the appropriation. Attorney Null
and Commissioner Klrkpatrlck wore here at.
the time of the presentation of the voucher
by Mr. Null , but as Auditor Mayhow was
absent at the time no further action could
he taken uutll he hud passed upon the'
question at issue. Mr. Null stated that as
Boon as this question was decided ho would'
bring the matter before the court cf claims '
for adjustment. The auditor has refused to
allow the voucher presented In excess of tbei ,
first hilf of the appropriation.
SIOUX FALLS. S. D. , Dec. 3. ( Special. ) |
Since Auditor Mayhcw has refused to Issue A !
warrant to the South Dakota Hallway com-1 |
mission on the funds appropriated for next I
year the commission finds Itself In a good.
deal of a plrklc. The total arproprtatlco for ! |
legal expenses for the years IS'JT and 1S3SI I
was | 4,500. Half of tills has already been
used up and the fiscal year of 1897 does not
end until July 1 , 1893. The commission there
fore tlnds Itself without funds and with an
expensive lawmilt on its hands. ,
Just how much the trial of the big rate case
will ccst the commission no ono seems to
krow , but all agree that the cost will be
heavy. The trial may last two months. Some
of the expert witnesses will cost the state
$100 a day , and without pay these expert
witnesses cannot bo compelled to attend.
In addition to this , expensive atlorneys must
be ptid , and the commission will have to pay
the masters' and stenographers' fees. The
commission csseita It was the Intention of
the appropriations committee to make the
whole sum appropriated available whenever
the commission needed it for litigation ex-1
pcnscs and an effort will bo made to com-
pel the auditor to take this view of the case.
If this falls. It IH possible that the commis
sion will bo compelled to wait until after I
next July beforeIt begins the trial of the ' '
big case from the determination of which
the shippers 'of the state expect so much.

South UaUni Farmers Turning th
Coir ( o 1'roflt.
SIOUX FALLS. S. D. , Dec. 3. ( Special. )
Six -years ago there were just two cream-
arlcd in operation In South Dakota. All the
farmers were raising wheat and wiicat alone.
Flvo years ago the number of creameries had
Increased to five. Tncre are now 143 cream
eries in actual operation In the state and
by this time next year L. N. Hunter , > the
creamery expert , says the number will not bo
less than 200.
Mr. lluuter attributes the rapid growth of
South Dakota creameries to the discovery
by the .farmers that there Is little money In
wheat at such prices as prevailed between
1S93 and 1S9C , while money Is to bo made
from butter any and every year. Mr. Hun
ter says that the creameries now In opera
tion arc bringing Into the state every month
thu sum of $2S5,000. Ho insists that this
estimate is rather too low than too high.
During 1S97 he says the amount of money
brought into the state by the creamery In
dustry alone will amount to $3,250,000 , and
hu estimates the probable amount for 189G
r.L not less than. $4,000,000.
There has mot bcea a failure among the
co-operative creameries. A few , three or
four , Improvldcntly managed by private par
ties , who hsd no means to begin with , have
failed , but the rule has been , ono pointing
to great success , Hundreds of farmers are
now paying all their living expenses out of
the proceeds of their business with the
creameries and the proceeds from their grain
and stock crops are used either to pay
debts or as a saving.

SAX FIIAMCISCO , Cal. , Dec. 3. ( Special. )
The meeting of the California Wlno
Makers' corporation was held this week and
plans laid for the season's sales and for next
year's production. The vintage of 1S97 has
been the most remarkable in the history of
the Industry. With ICES acreage than some
years ago the vines have been so prolific
that the dry wine produced Is far greater
than usual and has been exceeded but once
or twice. As thus far compiled Manager
Hotchklss' returns of the dry wlno vintage
of this season are as follows :
District. Gallons.
Sonoma county 9,000,000
Santa Clara county 7,7.V,000
Xapa county 4,500,000
Miscellaneous 4.500,000
Total K.750,000
j
Of the ISO" vintage it la estimated that
[ i the California Wine Makers' corporation
holds 15,750,000 , and the dealers anil out-
sldo growers the remaining 10.ono.000 gallons.
In considering the marketing of the crop the
left-over stock from former years will have
to be taken Into account. The Wine Makers'
corporation will report to Its members about
5,500,000 gallons , and the dealers' supply will
probably be computed at about 4,000,000 gal
lons. The demand for the coming year Is
placed by Manager Hotchklss at 23,000,000
gallons , calculated on a coast consumption of
8.000,000 and an export consumption of 15-
000,000 gallons. Deducting those 23,000,000
gallons from the 38.000,000 on hand , a sur
plus of 13,000,000 gallons will remain , a portion
tion of which will necessarily be reserved
for aging and storage of cooperage. Fermen
tation of the 1897 wine Is reported to have
been perfect , and It Is the judgment of ex
perts that the quality will he much superior
to the average.

somu legal method to prevent the carrying
out of the orders of-tbe court with reference
to their destruction , The supreme court lias
been appealed to In vain , and as a last resort
the district court ot Arapahoe county was
asked to issue a writ of replevin on the

the coroner , but as EfcerlfT Ives is In New
York state there wus no ono to servo tbe

possession ofthe court. A force of men was
set to work by the court bailiff and over
$5,000 worth of furniture , Including numer
ous mahogany tables , was chopped into kind-

Thirty-Second street. The attendance was
large and enthusiastic , and the discussion of
\vajs and means to extract largo quantities
of fun out of the- winter months was Inter
esting , and proved that the Hanscom 1'nrk
National Skating club did not propose to let
any club out-do them. Dean II. Thompson ,
the secretary , made a statement concerning
the prices of suits that had been quoted by
the firms who are making a specialty of them ,
and the members were delighted to hear fig
ures that were low enough to come within
the reach of all. A number of new members
were mustered In last night , and will be put
through the "Hay-foot. Straw-foot" drill by
the military officer in charge.
Slslghlng parties wishing to visit the ex
position grounds at night are desired to use
the Twenty-fourth street entrance. Three or
four Jolly parties took advantage of the
snow last night and were well repaid for
their trip to the lagoon.
A traveling commercial man Just In froai
the western part of the state said last night :
"Why It Is simply wonderful what an Inter
est Is being taken In IhJs Carnival of Queen
Polaris In every city , town and village that
I have visited during the pist flvo weeks.
They discuss the chances of the leading can
didates In The Dee voting contest Just the
sams as they did the presidential candidates
last year. You buy -copy of The Bee and
Its a 'ten to one chr > f that you will be asked
forty times an hour for thit ballot , and you
are lucky If the ballot has not already been
clipped out when you buy ths pap3r. The
friendly contest between the- young ladles
In the lead keeps them guessing. Oh , but
when you drop Int6 a town where they have
a contest of their own for a maid of honor
to Omaha's Queen thSre's\vhcrc , It's warm. "
In wiswer td a question propounded by Mr.
Jcseph H. Love as'to the number of people
who were likely to visit Omaha during car
nival week. "From 'the way they talk ,
everybody seems to bo saving up their
money for that big event , and I d on't doubt
but what there will'be at a low estimate ,
over 100,000 people come to thla city during
that wecU. " '
The big drifts of snow from the north
piled on to the lagoon Ice to a depth of six
Feet yesterday afternoon and necessitated a
scraper drawn by a horse to make an Impres
sion on them , but the snow Is what the man
agers needed for the end ot the toboggan ,
and it comes In just right. A toboggan Is
no toboggan unless you have a largo husky
bank of snow that people get dumped Into
once In a while. That Is a part of the fun.
The lady candidates who arc anyways
near No. 15 In The Bee voting contest have
a problem before them In not getting too
many or too few votes to land that diamond
ring which will be presented to the lucky
ono by George W. Ryan , the Jeweler. December -
comber 15th Is the day.
If the weather will only settle down and
take a rest on Sunday , the Concert band will
blow their horns and there will bo a large
crowd of ekators-to enjoy themselves on tbe
beautiful Ingocn at the exposition grounds ,

Veekly Review or Trade , in its issue tomor

The monthly report of failures shown de
faulted liabilities of Jll.niO.lM In November ,
ig-.ilnst J12lXSoC ( last year. Because of three
arsu failures for $3,100,000 , not duo to pres
ent conditions , the nfrgrcguto In NovtMnbcr
; vns only Jl.100.000 less than last year , nml
except for these would have tieon smaller
thnli In Augiigt , September or October.
Trto decrease In nearly all branches of
jus-lncss shows that payments have been
remarkably good and defaults unusually
mnnll. Other evidences of the state of busl-
loss are convincing , except In speculative
Incs , WORM have been voluntarily nd-
vanccd for nearly 30,000 workers In woolens
and Iron.
Stocks : ire somewhat stronger , having ad
vanced J1.47 for railways nml J1.57 for
trustH. The trup value of American railway
stocks Is steadily rising -with ca rnltigs , which
'or November thus far are C0.9 per cent
orger than luat year and 3.7 pjr cent larger
than In the same weeks or 1S < 2 ,

sure that January -will bring n. largo de

iluto contracts to eastern firms glvca them
mportnnt help , though the demand for bars
s slciv at the cast nnd 1'lttsburff , but Is
really strong- Chicago for agricultural nnd
railway supplies.
The voluntary advance of M per cent In
he wu-sscs of worsted workers of I'rovldencc ,
restoring the rates of 1SD3 , Is evidence of the
iroiipcrlty of that manufacture. After muct :
icsltatlon In order branches , which may be
ustlflcd. this Important department of the
woolen Industry puts Itself nt the front , vir
tually deolarlng- ability to face any for

Tha purchases of Australian wool at Bos

out of C.170,70) pounds of all wool at thu
hree chief market.ngulnst S.S21.3CO pounds
'or the same tAotk last year. But other mar-
tots nre extremly quiet nnd Boston Is doing
ho solllns" at prices not named.
No Ruin ajippiirs In the cotton manufacture
and the low price of cotton still hinders the
buylnK of goods. Lower prices than have
ever been known are quoted for print
cloths and also for some srailcs of prints
and the average of cotton goods Is remark
ably las-er ,
Tne wheat market has deceived every-
) ody , dropping in the face of an enormous
'orelgn demand Just when some advance
night reasonably have been anticipated.

against 2,079,457 bushels last year and for
Ive iiveeks 17.617,471 bushels , npalnst 9.S13.S13
Bushels for the same weelrs last year. But
n the long run the outward movement will
\fTect prices , although the surprisingly larfie
lomand at the i.vc.st Indicates a correspond-
nply greater yield than has been antici
pated.
So the enormous receipts of cotton from
plantations exceeding thopc to date of the
srrnt crop of about 10C < X,000 ) bales In 1S9-I ,
: cnd to check all speculation , although both
'oreljrn and domestic demands for spinners

NEW YORK , Dec. 3. Bradstrect's tomor
row will say :
General trade throughout the country has
presented rather more animation , owing to
colder weather and the approaching- ' -
days.While
While clothing , dry goods , hats , shoes and
notions , hardware and fancy groceries have
been In a little better demand from both
lobbers and at retail In the region trlbj-
tary to Chicago , St. I ouls , Omaha , St. Jo
seph , St. Paul and Kansas City , the Un-
lency of buslmss has been to slacken. Tl 13
is noticeable In , Iron nnd steel , nnd In fur-
; her depression In cotton goods , print clotl.- ,
: iavlng made a new low record In price.
The appearance of a better demand for
tilling in purposes has had a favorable In- .
luence at points In Tennessee and the gulf |
states. On' the Pacific coast the feature of
buslnesu Is a well maintained export move- |
nient from nearly nil ports. The lower price i
for print cloths Is followed by a sharp re
action In wheat and a lower price for Indian - .
dian corn. Oats are slightly higher , nnd
coffee has advanced. In addition to which I
there remains a long list of the staples , |
prices of which are unchanged.
The domestic grain trade continues to look
with equanimity on the unprecedently larpe
quantities of wheat exported from both
coasts week after week , the continuation of .
which la an evidence of an appreciation of
the relation of supply to demand by the
grain trade abroad. The total exports of
wheat ( flour Included as wheat ) from both
coasts of the United States and from Montreal - .
treal this week aggregate CC93ECO bushels , |
I,3u0,000 bushels larger than last week and i
within 273,000 bushels of the largest week's '
exports on rtcord. They compare with total
exports In this week last year of 3.03.1,030
bushels , of 3.15G.COO bushels In 1S93 , 3,011/00
bushels in IStl and 2,5TiS,000 bushels In 3893.
Corn exports show a heavy gain over last
week , aggregating 4,5S5SOG bushels , against
2SC9,000 bushels last week , 1.75S.COO bushels
last year and 1,867,000 bushels , In this week
of 1SU5.
Exportx of other cereals , such 03 cats ,
rye , barley nnd buckwheat , have also been
very largo and the total value of our cereal
exports during the past week promises to

NEW YOHIC , Dec. 3. Bradstrcot's nnsn-
cl-il review tomorrow will say :
A much -more active and at times a de
cidedly strongnpeculatlon has been seen
this week. The market has been apparently
under bull leadership ot a powerful charac
ter nnd whl'o the outstanding rhort Interest
was forced to cover a consult rabla volume
of fresh outside movement was attraoteJ ,
Thouph commission houses were more prom
inent In the transactions than for somu tlmo
past , the "street" credited the report to the
trading operators lA'iho found that stocks
had passed Into strong hands and did not
como out under manipulative pressure , there
being at the same time : considerable short
Interest. Circumstances also favored n bull
ish demonstration nt this time , the belief
that the president's message would take
grounds as to Cuba and the currency Falls-
factory to business Interests being a factor
of considerable Importance.
The generally good character of railroad
earnings reports and the exceptionally grat
ifying showings made by certain companies
for October , notably by the I'ennsylvnnlii ,
has tilso been a leading factor. At the same
time the announcement of the Hock. Island's
plan for refunding n greater portion of Us
debt at 4 per cent and the successful forma
tion of the syndicate for this purpose , has
made a good effect.
The bond market attracted no small share
of attention and great activity has been dis
played In a number of "peculatlve Issues ,
while the more stable classes of securities
are Influenced to .some extent by reports of
coming bond operations by several com
panies. It may also be mentioned that Iho
demand for high grade Investments and mu
nicipal bonds Is steady , that foreign offer
ings of such Fccurltles are readily absorbed
and that In a number of cases the bonds of
American municipalities are selling at the
highest figures on record. The steadiness ,
and advance In foreign exchange has at
tracted llttlo attention. Xort.vad Wall street
disposed to make much account of the con
tinued selling of our stocks by London on a
small Fcale. In fact the supply of Americans
thcro is 'said to be u > r .ctleally exhausted.

AN INCIDENT AT THE CITY HOSPITAL.
A Wctnan's Lifo Barely Saved by a Critical Operation Her Health
Destroyed.
There was a hurry call for the ambulance of the City Hospital. In the
course of ati hour u. very sick young- woman was brought in on a
stretcher. Shu was pale as death and evidently suffering keen ngony.
There was a hasty exam t ination and a consultation. In less than a
quarter of an hour the poor crea
ture vrason the operating table to
undergo the operation called
ovariotomy.
There was no time for the usual
preparation. Her left ovary was ou
the point of bursting ; when it was removed -
moved , it literally disintegrated. If it
/ lind burst before removal , she
would have died almost in
stantly ! That young woman
had had warnings enough in the terrible pains ,
the burning sensation , the swelling low down
on her left side. No one advised her , EO she
Buffered tortures and nearly lost her life , I
wish I had met her months before , so I could
have told her of the virtues of Lydia B.
PinUham's Vegetable Compound. As it
is now , she is a wreck of a. woman.
Oh , my sisters , if you will not tell a
doctor your troubles , do toll them to u woman who
stands ever ready to relieve you ! Write to Mrs.
Pinkhara at Lynn , Mass. , confide freely to her all
your troubles , and bho will advise you free of
charge ; and if 3'ou IT.VO any of the above symp
toms take the advice of Miss Agnes Tracy , who
speaks from experience and says :
" For three years I had suffered with inflamma
tion of the left ovary , which caused dreadful pains.
I was so badly affected that I had to sleep with
pillows under my side , nnd then the puiu was so
great it was impossible to rest.
" Every month I was in bed for two or three days.
I took seven bottles of Lydia B. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound , and am entirely cured. I think
there is no medicine to bo compared with the Com
pound for female diseases. Every woman who suffers from any form of fcmala
weaknessshould try it at once. " Miss AGUES TIU.CV , Box 432 , Valley City , N. D.

this. The proper medicine Ii nt hand.
Over r/3ooo women have testified in writ-
Injr to the value of it.
Thcorjrans that make wIMiood nnd moth
erhood possible arc directly acted upon by
Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescription. It
makes them strong and healthy. It cures
all weakness and disease. It prepares for
maternity. It does away with the discom
forts of the expectant period. It insures
baby's health and makes its advent easy
and almost painless. Drturgists sell more
of the "Favorite Prescription " than of nil
other similar medicines combined.
"I am anxioui to add my testimonial to your
'I'avoritc l'rc < ctiptlon. ' "writes Mrs. C. O. limn *

The woman who owns n copy of Dr.
