the low pries now realized for farm

ANARCHISTS AT BARCELONA.
Several Persons issued by the Explosion
or a ,ltoritb in a Religious .Process*on
Arrests.
A despatch from Barcelona, says:—
The Anarchists have resumed their ac-
tivity in this city, and much fear is
entertained that they will inaugurate
another reign of terror similar to that
which prevailed in 1892 and 1893, when
there were many explosions here, in
Madrid and other Spanish cities. At
9 o'clock on Sunday night a bomb was
exploded while a religious procession
was taking place, and several persons
were killed.. The outrage has caused
great excitement. The authorities held
al meeting subsequent to the ex-
plosion, and resolved to take energetic
measures to diseaver the authors of
the crime and to prevent further out-
rage.s. Thais is the second outrage or
attempted outrage within a few days.
During a religious procession on the
feast of Corpus Christi a bomb was
found in a dust heap near the eathed-
ral. It was evidently the intention of
those who placed the bomb where it
was found to kill or anaim some of
those taking part in the procession.
A number of Anarchists have been ar-
rested, but as yet there is no peeitive
proot that any of them caused the ex-
plosion.
S ix persons were killed by the explo-
sion and twenty-four wounded. It is
not known what explosive the bomb I
contained, the Captain -General. of the ,
Province of Barcelona acted as stand-
ard-bearer in the procession; while the
civil Governor and the city Alcalde
held the streamers of the banner It
is thought that the designers of the
outrage contemplated killing these of-
Belals. At a late hour on Sunday
night the police had not discovered any
clue to the actual authors of the
crime.
The procession was in connection
with the Corpus Christi festival, The
bomb was thrown when the proces-
sionists were entering the Church of
Santa Maria, and the people were pan -
ie -stricken by the explosion and its ef-
fects. Those already in the church
made a wild rush to get outside, while
many of those on the outside scatter-
ed and fled in every direction. While
some of the priests present did every-
thing in their power to allay the ex-
citement others administered the last
rites of the church to those injured
who seemed likely to die. Quite a
large crowd was witnessing the pro-
cession, and the man who threw the
deadly missile effected his escape in
the excitement. It is reported that some
people who were standing close to him
have furnished the police with a descrip-
tion oi him, and hopes are entertained
that he will soon be captured.

vested in plant f'rr the manufacture
of bicycles and over $200,000,000 in the
wheels. The average $100 wheel costs
about $17.50 to make.
There is a further decline in wheat,
with prices the lowest so far on the
present crop. In Chicago the decline
has been five cents within a week.
Small exports and large receipts in the
west are the bearish Tactors.
Gross car earnings of the Toronto
Railway Company for May were $4,-

day in May last year than in the month
just closed.
The visible supply of wheat in the
United States and Canada is now 59,-
x,
^,000 bushels, a decrease of 958,000
bushels last week. A year ago the vis-
ible supply was 52,221,000 bushels. The
amount of wheat afloat to Europe is
30,400,000 bushels, a decrease of 880,000
bushels for the week. A year ago the
amount afloat was 43,920,000 bushels.
The recent sale of London. City de-
bentures to the Bank of British North
America, is another evidence of the sol -
'day of Canadian securities in general,
and of the high credit whioh London
deservedly enjoys. The amount sold
was $269,112.00, and realized $26i1,079.00,.
interest at 3 3-4 per cent., both inter,•
est and principal being payable at the

There is little 01 an encouraging na-
ture to say with regard to the trade
situation at Toronto. Travellers find
country mercnants acting with the
greatest caution, and the demand for
goods is restricted to the barest neces-
sities. Tpere is a further decline in
the prices ot grain, and including all
cereals prices in Ontario now are the
lowest remembered by the oldest deal-
ers. This is very discouraging to farm-
ers, and accounts for the low prices of
good Ontario agricultural lands. Cattle,
cheese, butter and hogs are also lower
than usual at this season of the year.
The outlook for this season's grain
crops, however, are not very encourag-
ing; on the other hand the yield in On-
tario le likely to be smaller than last
year, while in Manitoba the acreage in
wheat is ten per cent. less than in 1895.
This may have some effect later on the
prices of prqduce. Discounts at the
banks are unchanged, while the offer-
inge of tunas on stock collateral are
a little more liueral. Specs'', tion in
stocks is inactive and the market a
trifle firmer. Over a miilien and a
half dollars was paid out in bank divi-
dends on Monday, and part of this is
for investment. The demand for bank
shares is fair.
With regard to the trade situation
at Montreal, are few new features call-
ing for any special comment. Trade as
a. whole is not motive, nor is there an
apparent anticipation of much change
in the near future. a'he partial im-
provement in payments,' which some
lines have reported during the month
of May, seems fairly maintained, but
general collections cannot be called
good, ana
the hev very low prices prevailing
for bn utter and cheese must naturally
have a very material effect upon the
volume of circulation in the country.
Leather is about the only line showing
any improved demand, with some ad-
vance in certain lines. 'fanners are
buying hides more liberally, and the ac-
cumulation of stock is moving off very
fairly at steady prices. It is now be-
tween seasons in the dry goods trade,
and stock taking and the revision of
samples for the fall trip are now en
regle. Groceries rule very quiet, and
the sugar market is if anything a
shade weaker; some outside operators
who have been holding fair lots of gran-
ulated for several months would like
to unload ft is said. In metals, etc., the
movement is just a moderate one in
small lots. Paints oils, etc., show a
fair movement; turpentine and glass are
reported lower. The money mar-
ket is easier, call money be-
ing now plentiful at 5 per
cent., and t'he stook market which
has been somewhat depressed, is show-
ing some suns of toning up. ,,The
weather has been rather too 000l for
the growing crops, but a more season-
able temperature now prevails, and the
country is looking well.
WHEN IS A WOMAN OLD ?
This is the latest question which an
inquiring spirit bas addressed to all the

become young again." Rosa Berten
says. "A woman is old when she be-
gins to ask herself, 'When is a woman
old?' Jenny Gross keeps to the safe
saying. ' A wotl?an is"as old ' as she
looks." Marie Pospischil considers that
"As long as a woman believes in youth
she appears young, even when she is not
really so." Marie Reisenhofer declar-
es emigmaticahly: "Woman is old when
she begins to love reason: and finds no
love I -n return." Clara Ziegler, the cele-
brated tragedienne, is more genial and
consoling in some respects. According
to her: When is a woman old?" "The
conceited, never; the unhappy, too soon;
and the wise at the right time."

STRAIGHT AS AN ARROW
TO THE MARK. •
In all diseases that affect humanity there is
some weak link in the chain of health, some spot
that is the seat of the trouble. It may be the liver,
it may be the stomach; perhaps it is the bowels or
the kidneys; most likely it is the blood. Burdock

A CRAZY MAN'S DEED.
Steamboat Engineer Stager Attempts tot
Blow 250 Passengers Into Eternity, But
A11 Escaped.
A despatch from Berlin says: There
1 was a terrible panic on Wednesday on
an excursion steamer on Gremmener
Lake. There were 250 pupils of the
Public schools on board the steamer.
When the centre of the lake had been
reached the engineer of the steam-
boat, a man named Stager, appeared on
deck.
"Teachers end children," he said,
"say your last prayer, as 1 intend to
blow up the steamer." He would do
it, be declared, to revenge himself
on the ,,oats master., A frightful
panic prevailed, read members of the
crewthrew themselves on Stager and
bound him with ropes.
' An investigation showed that the
villain had so fixed the engin that
an explosiottn was imminent.
Boats were immediately lowered and
the screaming children hurried into
them. Many o1 the children leaped
into the wafter. Boats arrived from
shore and everyone was rescued.
Within a minute after the last person
was taken oft, the steamer exploded.
Stager made a full confession. , He is
not thought to be insane.
THE ELEVATOR FELL
A Terrible Amide's* in a Printing House
at ' Baltinnore — Thirteen Employes
Seriously Injured.
A despatch' from Baltimore says:
The passenger elevator of the Frieden-
wall Printing Co. fell from the fourth
floor to the basement with an awful
crash on Wednesday morning. Four-
teen men and women were in the car
as it went down the shaft. The ele-
vator conductor had a miraculous es-
cape, coming out uninjured. The other
13 persons were terribly injured; Mak-
i bren legs and arms being the fate of
l many. Two of the injured are in a
dying condition. Thomas Knapp,
aged 68, had a rib broken and both
feet crushed; Mary Jackson, aged 46
had both legs broken and spine
injured. They will probably die.
The victims were conveyed to the
Maryland University Hospital, many
of them being unconscious ; others
shrieked like mad. The injured were
all employes of the printing company,
and were going to their workrooms on
the t'op floor" to begin their days labor.

A HEAVY MORTGAGE.
How a prominent farmer quickly
lifted It.
.A mortgage has been described as an
incentive to industry, a heavy mortgage,
as.a sure sign of ruin. The last is particn-
Carly true, for if a mortgage is allowed to
ran it will eat up the farm. In this con-
nection Mr. Henry Fowler, of Huron
writes : `c From my boyhood scrofula had
markea me for a victim and it seemed as
if it had a life mortgage on my blood. -'I
suffered fearfully with, sores,, and $pow•
ing my condition I have remained a single
man. Doctor after doctor prescribedfor
me, and finally a Toronto specialist told
me bluntly that my complaint was a
deep-seated, incurable, blood diseas
Sarsaparilla I knew was a good blo
medicine, and I sent for a. bottle of: t 'e
best. Mr. Todd, the druggist, sent mo
Scott's Sarsaparilla, and I have stuck to
it. It has lifted my mortgage, for to -day
I am free from those horrible sores, ray
eyesight is not blurred, my tongue is ndt
furry, and I have no irritation. I look
upon Scott's Sarsaparilla as a marvellous
dedicine when it will cure a life long
isease in so short a time."

matism and all diseases generated by
poisonous humors in the blood are eu ed
