FREIGHT CIRCULAR,

The past fortnight h

The political crent referred to has tended towards an almost general strengthening of ideas on the part of owners, unfortunately however a uniform and material improve- ment on recent market conditions bas by no means been created so farg

There is at the cose, it is a slight stir in the North, according to Shanghaf advices, but the Southern market has as yet exhibited little change of any kind. The near-at-hand future hae no doubt in store a certain outlet for disengaged tonnage in the shape of harth freights hence and from neighbouring ports at Vladivostock, as the latter port is properly prepared for traille again, which does not appear to be the case yet. There will in all probability": alto be some chartering on monthly basis

Hoch must not hang,' the woman said to Gaoler Whitman. See that he gets a lease of life, and the money will be found.' Mra Cora Wilson, the woman who figured so prominently in the case, saya cho was impelled solely by the belief that Hoch was innocout. She refuses to tell who gave the inoney, but the general question to-night is: Did one of Hoch's wives supply the cash?' Somehow, guessing, or perhaps intuition, takes a decidedly strong feminine trend. Both inside and outside of the gaol during the hours which wore supposed to be the last

woman furnished the money, but her identity is likely to remain a mystory.

CHICAGO, July 29.

Mrs Cora Wilson, to whom Johann Hoch uwes his life, nover had seen the man sho started out to save when he was wittin a few minutes of death. Mrs Wilson is A business womnau. With her sister she con. ducts a furrier's storo at 66 Wabash Avenuo. Her manner is brisk and business-like, and she seems not at all sentimental or morbid. She is quite opposed to the type of women who have shown sympathy with Hoch and taken a morbid interest in tho crimes charged to him.

It is simply a matter of justice,' she The departure of every steamer is subject to alteration. The P. & O. maile said to-day. Here was a man who was to be hanged because he lacked the money necessary to take advantage of the law. Where was thero justice in that? If it is justice for a rich man to appeal, it is just for Hoch to appeal, and it would be a travesty on justice for him to be denied the right for lack of money. This is what mnado mo start out to try to save Hoch.

I have known Dr Montgomery for a tong time. He got me intorsted in the case and when I read that Hoch would have to die, I went to the doctor and to gother we went to the gaol. I did not know what I could do, but I wanted to do what- over could. I have never seen Hoch. I did not evon call on bin after his reprieve, and 1 do not expect to see him, I am satis" fied he should have the right to make his inal defence before the Supreme Court."

HE value of Bile Beane as is every day-Supt. 19

testified to by persons all over the civilised world who have found in this medicine health-giving proper remedies. . From the standpoint of economy Bile Beans can claim first place, as their price brings thom within the reach of all, and a course of Bile Beans is far cheaper than a course of doctor's medicine. Read what Mr Wm. Maskrey, of Hawthorne Cottage, Botley, Crewe, England, says of them:

'Some time back my liver became out of order, and I experienced the greatest diffi- culty in breathing. My food turned to gas, causing me pain between the shoulders and in the chest. I had also pain in the left side, a dull, tired fooling oven when I awakened in a morning. The bile was not properly secreted, and almost every day I had a bad bilious attack, accompanied by headache. My strength upbed away and I came to be in a shocking plight. On doctore I spent a small fortune, but it was of no avail, and at lust I began to despair of over being well again. I had nearly given up all hope of ever getting better, when I made up my mind to try Bile Beans. After taking them for a short time I experienced a wonderful change. I felt a botter man altogether. As persevered with their use the pains! across my obost and under my left shoulder gradually began to disappear, 1 ceased to be bilious, and my sleeplessness left me. In the mornings I awakened greatly re- freshed and able to leave for my work as obeerful as anybody could wish. Bile Beans have now completely cured me, my liver has been put in good order, and I can once more sit down to my meals with pleasure, without fear of pain afterwards, and without fear of biliousness.

The above sensational case proves con- clusively that Bile Beans can cure the worst cases of liver disorder. They are equally effective for debility, biliousness, constipa- tion, piles, nervousnose anæmis, female allments, weakness, paina in the back, sleeplessness, loss of appetite, congestion of the liver, headache, flatulence, pimples, and skin eruptions. Obtainable of all chomists and medicine vendors. Price 75 cents (Mox.) per bottle.

The expedition commenced its march in land from the coast on July 24, and after climbing for fully an hour through the difficult paths which follow the beds of the river and up the mountains, reached the village of Bullies. As soon as the approach of the expedition was noticed the natives struck up a tune on their remarkable musical instruments. This proceeding was recognised by the natives as a call to arme, and about 100 kanakas, fully armed with rifles, soon congregated at the entrance to the village of Bullies.
