BIG CHICAGO FAILURE
Moore Bros., of the Diamond
. Match Co.
AMOUNT INVOLVED IS 54,000,000
The Failure Caouaen a Great Flurry In
Commercial Circles New York His
cult Co Also Involved. -.
New York. Aug. 4 . The announce'
ment of the failure in Chicago of Moore
Bros., promoters of the Diamond Match
Company and the New York Biscuit
Company, resulted in the prevalence
here today of all sort" of . rumors cou
cerning the effect upon bueiness at the
New York offices of the concerns , men
tioned. . Scores of persons interested in
the affairs of the Diamond Match Com
pany visited the offices of that company
in Hudson street,' of which George John
eon is manager. Johnson was not at
the office today, having sent down word
that he was sick. Johnson's secretary
eaid that many others besides the
Moores own stock and the company will
certainly go ahead and fill its orders.
The following statement was given out
to the Associated Press at the office of
the New York Biscuit Company in this
city: . "The failure of Moore Bros, will
in no manner affect the business of the
New York Biscuit Company. The fact
that William H. Moore, of Moore Bros.,
is president of the company is no reason
why we Bh'ould be affected in the least."
THE BIDS OPBNEDi '
Manufacturers of War Material Present
In Great lumbers.
Washington, ' Aug. 4. This was . a
great day for the manufacturers of war
material, and many great corporations
and firms - were represented at the war
and navy departments this afternoon
when the bids were opened for supply of a
large quantity of gun carriages, mortare,
. shot and shells of various kinds. . Prob
ably not since the late war has the ord-
nance bureau of the war department
been able to lay out so extensive a pro
gram for one year's work aa is now pos
sible by the liberal appropriations made
by congress for the defense of sea coasts."
Consequently there are many bidders
for supplying a large quantity of the
material, raw and complete, included in
the first call for proposals, and it was a
noticzable fact that in the list of bidders
were the names of firms, many from the
West, that have never before had busi
ness relations with the war department.
ALABAMA ELECTION.
The State Goes Democratic by Immense
Majorities.
Montgomery, Ala., Aug. 4.- -Returns
so far show conclusively that Johnson
and the entire Democratic ticket will
win by a majority of about 40,000. The
lowest estimated majority is 25,000, the
highest 60,000. The legislature is surely
Democratic by at least two-thirds ma
jority: Heavy Democratic gains were
made in the counties in North Alabama.
In this portion Goodwin, PopuliBt, ran
behind Kolb's vote of 1894. Populist
leaders in Birmington claim that thous
ands of fictitious' votes were cast in the
black belt and threaten that if Goodwin
Is not elected they will organize the
Populists against Bryan and carry the
state for McKinlev. There is no doubt
that this is the greatest Democratic vic
tory in the state since 1840.
Bryan's Nm York Speech. '
Omaha', Neb.,-Aug. 4. A special to
the Bee from Lincoln, Neb., says:
When W. J. Bryan leaves for New York
next Friday evening he will carry with
him a draft of the speech he intends to
use before the notification committee at
Madison Square Garden. It will ocoupy
between an hour and an hour and a half
in delivery. He will discuss the Chica
go platform in detail and give his inter
pretation thereof. , He is very indignant
at the charge that he and those who
stand with him on tlje Chicago platform
are to be classed as anarchists or aim to
break the laws of the tountrv. In his-
New York speech he. will soundly de
nounce the accusation. Those who have
been taken into his confidence say the
speech will astonish the country. It
contains a number of new' and piessant

Mosler Findings.
Mosikk, Or., Aug. 4, 1896.
Editor Chronicle :
Dr. Watt of Hood River called here on
professional business. ;
Miss Dollie Mosier returned home
from a visit to Portland on Saturday.
Messrs. A. Root and Lee Evans have
been busy shipping peach plums for the
past week and expect to finish about
Thursday. They report the yield light,
but of first quality.
Another "hop" was hugely enjoyed
last Tuesday evening on a hastily con
structed platform at the depot. Among
those present we noted Mr. and Mrs. J.
N. Mosier, Mr. and Mrs. J. Carter, Mr.
and Mrs. F. Widener, Misses Maud and
Verne Smith, Daisy Hastings, Lillie
Widener, Lizzie Eben, Mrs. H. Har
desty. Messrs. Koontz, McFarlane,
Cook, Gibson, Lamb, McKenzie, Meeks,
Howard, Pennington and others whose
names your correspondent did not
gather. -
Some of the solid Democracy of Mosier
are wondering if the leaders are going to
give them a candidate to vote for this
fall, or if it is to cnose between a Popu
list, Republican or stay at home.

Ayer's Sarsaparilla enjoys the extra
ordinary distinction of having been the
only blood purifier allowed on exhibit at
the world's fair, Chicago. Manufact
urers of other sarsaparillas sought by
every means to obtain a showing of their

under the application of the rule for
bidding the entry of patent medicines
and nostrums. The decision of the
world's fair authorities in tavor of Ayer's
Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows :
"Ayer'e Sarsaparilla "Is not a patent
medicine. It does not belong to the
list of nostrums, It ia here on its
merits." ' , ' -

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a consti
tutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cnre is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the foun-
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list of
testimonials. Address :
