WASHINGTON , March 21. Cltlrons of the
Lnlted States residing In Chcc-1'oo , Chltm ,
liave made an earnest appeal through Con
sul Fowler at Chee-Foo to the charitable In
America and elsewhere on behalf of the
sufferers from the appalling Yellow river
floods of this jcar.
Theto floods have ibcen described by the
natives as "China's sorrow. " and the peti
tioners state that never before was the dla-
ttess BO great and heart-rending as now.
The most conservative estimates place the
number of starving nt 2,000,000 , and tlmo
nnd the Increasing cold weather will un
doubtedly augment the distress. The peti
tioners say that they are dally , almost
hourly. In receipt of reports from their
countrymen in the Interior depicting the
condition of the famine refugees , hundreds
of villages are submerged , icitles surrounded
by water , homes , furniture , clothing , In fact ,
everything is under water or destroyed.
The natives themselves are living In
straw huts , many have absolutely no shelter
from the winter's cold and snow , subsisting
on bark , willow twigs , etc. The summer's
crops have been a failure , the seed for next
spring's sowing Is gone , and there Is noth
ing for these starving millions to hope for
In the future.
The committee writes : .
With our knowledge of { he. terrible winter
prevailing , wo venture to call upon tha
charitable In our home land to assist us In
trying to alleviate at least a portion of this
misery.
Sliiiiluail of Cora In "VVniiteil.
Therefore , wo shall bo glad to reqolvo con
tributions of money and corn. We earnestly
beg the merchants and others on the Pacific
coast to contribute a steamerload of corn.
The natives of Shan-Tun , unllko those iouth.
subsist on this corn , and wo believe that If
the gratnmen of the west will ship to the
United States consul nl Chee-Foo. direct
from the Pacific slope , a steamer loaded with
corn , it will not only be the means of saving
thousands of lives , but of opening a market
of from 25,000QOO to 30,000.000 consumers
later on , as under normal conditions Amer
ican corn can easily compete with native
nnd If corn bo sent It Is guaranteed that It
will be distributed under the direct and per
sonal supervision of Americana residing In
or near the submerged districts.
We ask for money to be sent to the United
States consul , with which food and clothing
can bo bought , and wo guarantee a strict ac
counting for every dollar thus sent. Shan-
Tun Is particularly Interesting to American
"Ignorance of Law
Excuses No One. "
This maxim applies 'with
especial force to ignorance of
the taws of health. Every
man and woman of intelli
gence knows the physical
fact that the Blood reaches
the remotest parts of the
human body. If there is a ,
disturbance anywheref why
should one ignorantly sup
pose that the seat of the
malady is local ?
Is It not more rational to suppose that
the impure condition of the blood is
doing the mischief , &s it is ? Experience
has demonstrated tha fact Unit this is
tliu cnsu in U" > per cunt , of complaints.
If your "lifo's blood" is mire , nature
will take care of tliu rest. Hood's Sar-

EXPANSION OF INDUSTRIES

NEW YORK , Mnroh 24. 11. 0. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Hcvleiv of Trade will say to
morrow :
Uuslncsa la not frightened either by the
great capitalization of new companies or by
the wild fluctuations In Wall street. No
matter how much the stock operations In
New York may count , the business else
where Is largo enough to warrant n large
expansion of Industries , and that Is the thlnfl
most Important to observe. In no considera
ble branch has production diminished , but
In practically all It hns been Increasing dur
ing the last week.
In iron and steel a little lower prlco for
Bessemer plK appears at Plttsburg. with
Gray Torgo 75 ceiits higher there and south
ern Iron at Chicago 50 cents to $1 higher.
There Is no mnrltel for billets , ns noworks
east or west can furnish them at present ,
hut quotations range In prlco from $25 nl
rittsburg to $27 nt Philadelphia. In finished
products the condition Is the same. Hallf
can bo bought at $23 at Plttsburg nnd $24 nl
Chicago , It at all. but small lota have beer ,
sold nt $26 at New York. Chicago Is tahlnp
many contracts for building In lioston , Now
York nnd Washington , amounting to 4,00 (
tons , but makers elsewhere are overcrow dec
with work. No market con deliver plates
within nny reasonable tlmo and Ptttsbur *
works ale sold to July on sheets $2.10 there
$2.05 nt Chicago and $3 at Philadelphia 1 :
paid , Plato mills arc nil full and there I.
heavy demand at Chicago for bars , with om
carmaker's contract for 6,000 tons ; prices
arc steadily growing stronger. Minor metals
are all weaker with , the reaction of Londoi
speculation , though copper has declined te
17 cents here nnd Is jet so much above London -
don that exports have been stopped for th <
week. The February output both here ant
In other countries was greater than In las ;
year's monthly average , although FoJjruar ;
Is a short month.
Wool Is at the doubting point , with Inrgi
siles ordered from the Interior by tlre (
holders and some concessions made to BC
euro transactions at Philadelphia and Bos
ton , though quotations show only n moderati
decline and sales nt the three chief market :
are almost as large ns In 1S92.
Manufacturers make many Inquiries , bu
the prospect of combinations Is potent ti
hinder transactions. The goods are In rathe
better demand than a year ago , but no larg >
class of mills can claim to be fully cmploved
The demand for cotton goods Is still strong
but this week hns not materially advancei
prices. Cotton Is decidedly weaker , thougl
many believe that short supplies will In tlnr
Insure higher prices , but mill and commer
clnl .stocks are about 600.000 bales large
than last jcar abroad , and mill stocks her
must bo heavier , because the mills are buy
Ing very little , although crowded -with work
whllo the commercial stocks here are quit
large.
The wheat market hero Is somewha
stronger , for although western receipts fo
the week are 3,330,000 , bushels , against 2 ,
557,060 last jear and for three weeks 2,900 ,
000 bushels larger. The exports , flour In
eluded , have been for the week at the At
Inntic ports 2,290,467 bushels , against 1,824 ,
669 lost year and from Pacific ports 824,18
bushels , against 1,371,8GO last year , othe
exports being 350,920 bushels. It is not pos
slble to ignore the importance of so great :
demand extending beyond the middle o
March , and sober traders realize that I
means a heavier outgo than has yet bee :
expected. Western crop estimates are larg
and such reports as appear of the condltlo :
pf wheat for the coming year are on th
whole favorable , but prices are 3 3-8 cent
higher than last weo.k. vvhUe > corn Is 2 1-
cents higher. Tho' market for ; cotton ha
been weak , "owing to better receipts at th
south and the knowledge that stocks on ban
are large enough to meet the demand.
Failures In the United States are 231
against 251 last year , and twenty-four 1
Canada , against twenty-one last year.

NEW YORK. March. 24 , Uradstrcet's to
morrow will say.
Stormy weather , retarding spring distribu
tion In some sections , has Imparted nn irreg
ular appearance to general trade , while some
few reductions In prices of leading staples ,
notably raw cotton and wool , copper and
some few other metals , serve to break the
otherwise almost unvarying appearance ol
strength of staple values. The general com
mercial situation , however , continues tc
present much apparent strength and the few
lines that note a quieter tone ot business
find ready substitutes among other branches
which as yet have been rather backward.
The seo-saw of wheat prices has been up
ward this week , theoretically on reports ol
crop damage at homo and abroad , but Inrgelj
owing to speculative overselling during the
last week's depression , which , by the way
again developed eome good foreign buying
Industrially , the situation Is satisfactory
While actual advances In wages are ns yel
confined to the cotton manufacturing am :
the Iron nnd steel Industries , the cuircnt o :
work in other lines Is running full and the
number of operatives who have gained semi
advantage from the activity In all indus
trial lines totals easily 500,000.

Strong muscles and strong ncivcs go together.
Carl a. Herbert Is the best developed man at Harvard today , according to Dr. Sargcant ,
the unlvcifilty's professor of physical culture and director of the gymnasium.
Mr. Herbert bcllovca Palno's celery compound to bo the most wonderful preparation in
the w01 Id for strengthening the body and ennbllng It to withstand great mental and
phjslcnl exertion. He hns consented to the publication of the following letter :
CAMMIUnai : , Mass. Jan. 16 , 1839.
W"lls , Ulclmrdson & Co. I feel constrnl ncd , owing to the biMiellts I have derived
Irom jour Incomparable rcmdey , Palne's col ory compound , to write and toll > ou In what ,
manner I have been benefited by It. AS you are doubtless aware , an athlete's micces *
is duo very much to tils condition or form , nnd that perfect condition or foim depends
much on the condition of his stomach I fo el , and know by experience , that Palno's cel
ery compound Is the Ideal icnicdy for that purpose , us It not onlv strengthens the nerv-
ouus sjstem , which I s so essential to good health , but vvo find that It regulates the entire
sjbtem nnd renders It In n condition to withstand cither great mental strain or pbjsl-
cal exertion. I stand , nt present , nt Hie hea < t of the list of the Sergeant test of Harvard
college , and am about to compete again this jcar. As n preliminary to the actual train
ing 1 have taken two bottles of P.ilne's celery compound and know that with Its aid I
shall beat my own record this jcar , ns I nm now able , with no other training , to lift
many pounds more than before I comtnciiLod taking the compound. Possibly > ou maybe
bo Interested In the forthcoming test nnd I will take pleasure In Informing you of the
outcome. In closing I will ngaln any that I owe vou my sincere thanks for the Inesti
mable good that Patne's celery compound hna done for mo , and rest HESined I will lese
no opportunity of recommending It to my friends and brother nthlctes. Very trulv ,
CAUL 0. HEKUnilT.
To the reader : You would bo strong nnd well.
Palno's celery compound will enable 5011 to bo both. It will strengthen the nerves ,
purify the blood revive the lost energy In a word , It will do more to counteract the on
coming of Ill-health , sickness , disease , than any other medicine In the world. There
can be no possible reason for not testing the results In jour own case.
