An advance in prices is likely to be well held until the knowledge becomes public property, when sofne selling to take profits usually causes a reaction. | Many of the rumors recently prevalent | have passed out of consideration with- out any confirmation, and the extrav- | agant character of many of these ru- | mors has served to arouse distrust. | Those of the past week have continued | to deal principally with the transcon- tinental railroad situation and have pointed to a workout of a comparative | ment of the Northern Securities con- test.

Nearly everybody knows that char- | coal is the safest and most efficient’ disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleans- ing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it' the better; it is not a | drug at all, but simply absorbs the | gases and Impurities always pre:ent! in the stomach and intestines and car- | ries them out of the system. i Charcoal sweetens the breath after | smoking, drinking or after eating | onions and other odorous vegetables. | Charcoal effectually clears and im-: proves the complexion, it whitens the ! teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic. | It absorbs the injurious gases which | collect in the stomach and bowels; it | disinfects the mouth and throat from | the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell charceal in one| form or another, but probably the best | charcoal and the most for the money is In Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they | are composed of the finest powdered | Willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting loz- enges, the charcoal being mixed with honey. The daily use of these lozenges will £oon tell in a much improved condition | of the general health, better complex- ion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of it is that no possible harm can result from their continued use, but, on the contrary, great benefit. A Buffalo physician in speaking of the benefits of charcoal says: “I ad- vise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to clear the complex- ion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is great- 1y benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet 1 believe I get more and better charcoal in Stuart’s ‘Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets.” | of industrial ADVERTISEMENTS.

The cheap appearance l thus given to the stock was supposed | confirm the sentiment, that the danger of industrial depression has passed. The great accumulation of idle reserves in New York banks offered abundant fa- | to help on a movement to advance its |cilities for a campaign in securities, and price. It would require much space to | detail all the rumors that were given | more or less credence as to the part | this company was to play in the sup- posed settlement. But it was nnt(oe-i able that other railroads which were | to share in the arrangements, although | they were actively dealt in, were mak- | ing inconspicuous advances. | DEALINGS IN STEEL STOCK. | The enormous dealings in United | States Steel preferred were accompa- nied by the assertion that the corpora- tion was buying the stock for conver- | sion into second mortgage bonds, thus reducing the standing charge by 2 per cent on the capital concerned. This as- | sertion met with official disclaimers, like many of the others in circulation. | But while the action of the market thus | continued under a degree of distrust | and suspicion, the scope of the move- ment and the breadth of the absorption made its impression and held the un- dertone firm. Much was heard of the closing out of very heavy lines of short ‘ contracts which had been obstinately ! held from a very early perlod of the| present advance in prices. After the prolonged stick market de-| cline of last year there was influential | opinion that that decline was a heraldl and business reaction! which would permeate the whole coun- | try and threaten our whole fabric of | credit, including the banking structure. | It is only within a few weeks that the passing of this danger and the revival | of business confidence has been dis- | tinctly recognized. There is an element in the stock mar- | ket which maintains that the revival | of confidence Has been exaggerated and | the stock market advance due to ma- nipulation. The persistence of this view | would have added to the severity of the | punishment of such an element in re-; deeming the contracts based on that| assumption. The belief In the unset-| tling influence of a Presidential cam- paign, the successive reductions which have been allowed in the estimates of the crops and the supposition that the war in the Far East would have| drained the world’s money markets of | available resources would have served to convince the reactionists in their | persistence. These factors have all failed of their effect on the markets. CROP ESTIMATES EXPAND. | Crop estimates of the week mate- rially expanded, and confidence is in- creased that the crops are practically made. The revival in the consumption of iron and steel, the recovery in rail- way earnings and the resumption of some of their plans of improvements, which were laid aside from the neces- sity for retrenchment, have helped to the manner in which loans have been taken out, revealed by the compara- tive statistics for the past year, leaves little doubt that those facilities have been availed of for that purpose. Enor- mous requirements for new capital is- sues have already been contracted by railroad and industrial operations, and the necessity for securing a market for themselves to explain the countenance given to the revival in the stock mar- ket by the combined powers of capital of the country. Bonds were irregular. United States 3's and the old 4's have declined % per cent on call during the week. —_————— Two Californians Are Honored. ST. LOUIS, Oct. 8.—E. J.
