press my gratitude to you for the cure your Swift's
Specific has effected in my case. I was afflicted
with the horrible blood disease for three years, and
after spending some time at the Hot Springs, con-
sidered my case a hopeless one. I used only one
dozen small bottles of S. S. S., and there is not a
ign of the disease remaining. My sores are all
ealed, my throat is entirely well; I am rid of that
irrible dis- ^1 haTe seen
use. Being somanyhua-

hat I shudder to think of the misery which has
fceen brought or the human family by the use of
tklercurials for Blood Diseases. It is a crying
Ehamv that physicians will not acknowledge the
merit of your GRAND Blood Medicine. Use my
name as you wish. J • H- RAFF.

Having, after long and careful study and great
expense, succeeded in perfecting the above re-
ferred to machine, we offer it now to the public as
the most powerful, safe and expeditious compress
in use.
Wholly of metal, reducing its risk of destruction
much in case of fire, and working with scarcely any
friction, its movemeuts are smooth and noiseless;
and as the whole power is directly applied to the
bale without intervention of levers, coe gearing or
other devices common to other forms of com-
presses. its work is performed at less cost of fuel
per bale than any press in use.
When used in combination with Riesel's-Bale
Ejector, which discharges the pressed bale as soon
as the press opens, thereby relieving the men from
that labor. 100 bales per hour can be compressed
and tied.
The capacity of the press is 2000 tons, and this is
applied to each bale pressed.
These presses are built in the very best manner,
and with all the care that skill and experience can
command, and are guaranteed in all their details.
For particulars address the undersigued or

THE PUSEY & JONES COMPANY,
Wilmington, Delaware.
While the receipts continue largely in excess of
last year, the excess in the visible supply over a
year ago i* not large. The stock at Liverpool
this week shows a decrease of 17,000 bales com-
pared with last week, while up to last evening
there ware 10,000 bales less afloat for that port
than on the same day last week, making a de-
crease of 27,000 bales in the risible supply of Liv-
erpool for the week. Oa the other hand, for the
corresponding week last year, the stock at Liver-
pool increased 38,000 bales, and the amount afloat
89,000 bales, making an increase in the vis-
ible supply for the week o€ T7,000 bales.
The visible supply yesterday was: Stock, 995,000
bales; afloat, 292,000 bales; total, 1,287,000 bales.
Last year it was: Stock, 873,000 bales; afloat, 461,-
000 bales; total. 1,334,000 bales—decrease this year,
47,000 bales. The stock at all United States ports
to-day was 778,070 bales, against 829,950 bales Fri-
day. and 736,251 bales laat year. During the last
week the stock at the ports has decreased 51,880
bales, and for the corresponding week last year
the decrease was 57,971 bales. The receipts at the
ports this week show an excess over the corre-
sponding week last year of 38,028 bales. The de-
crease in stock reaches to within 6091 bales of the
same week last year, notwithstanding the above
excess in receipts, and shows that 31,937 bales more
have gone out of sight from the ports during the
past week than during the same week last year.
The above figures give the leading features in the
statistical position for the past week, and
they have apparently had the effect, com-
bined with other causes, of giving a stronger
tone to the markets, together with higher prices in
nearly all the spot and all of the future markets.
During the week in spot markets middling cotton
shows a4ranees as follows: Mobile, Savannah,
Charleston, Norfolk, New York,' Augusta and St.
Louis. Jtc; Wilmington, 3-16c; New Orleans and
Memphis, J*c, and Liverpool, l-16d. Galveston,
Baltimore, Boston aad Philadelphia have made ao
changes in quotations. In this market futures
close tbe week at an advance over last Friday of 8
points for May and 14<&18 points for the other
j»joaths. New Orleans show3 an improvement
during the week of 15Q21 points. New York has
advanced 14&20 points, and Liverpool 3<&4 points
of l-64d. Prices for Texas spot cotton at Liverpool,
taken in detail, show an advance of l-16d for low
middling, middling and good middling, while ordi-
nary aad good ordinary remain at last week's
quotations.
The receipts of cotton at Galveston are still
largely in excess of last year, as will be seen by
the table given below. New Orleans receipts, also
continue heavy, while the other ports are not ex-
cessive, though the larger ports still show an in
crease over last year.
The weather during the past week has generally
been reported unfavorable for the coming crop,
rain reta-ding planting operations. However, the
large crop of the present season was a late one,
and it is not impossible that last year's experience
may be repeated.
The following were the quotations for Texas and
