The Best Things
In Cookery

Arc always made with the ROYAL BAK-
ING POWDER. 1t iniparts that peculiar
lightness, sweetness and flavor noticed
IN the finest rolls, biscuit, cake, etc.,
and which the most expert pastry cooks
declare is understandable by the use of
any other raising agent.
The ROYAL BAKING POWDER, besides
rendering the food more palatable and
wholesome, is, because of its higher
ieavening power, the most economical.
The ROYAL makes more and better
food than any other baking powder
because it is the pnrest.

Repudiation of the Switching
Tariff to Be Followed by
a Bolder Move.
Rail Shipments East From Chi
cago Increase and Lake
Traffic Falls.
Edison'S Latest Creation viii
Replace Englnes--Gen-
eral Pointers.

CHICAGO, Oct. ga rupture in the
Central Traffic association is one of the
probabilities of the near future. The
Chicago Il Grand Trunk people have
grown tired of losing business through
the irregular practices of competing
lines, and have resolved upon course
of action that will no doubt precipitate
q row. Tomorrow that road will re-
pudiate the Chicago switching tariff.
and will notify shippers that it will
hereafter receive freight at all points
without making any charge for switch
ing. This will be equivalent to very
material reduction in rates.
1t is claimed by the Grand Trunk
officials that other lines have been Sc
curing more than their share of busi-
ness by secretly absorbing the switching
charges, and they have determined to
do openly what they insist is being done
clandeStinely by their competitors. More
over, there is reason to believe that this
action of the Chicago & Grand Trunk is
simply preliminary to something more
startling that is to follow. As early as
Wednesday, perhaps, that company
will make an announcement that is cal
culated to create genuine CONSERVATION
among the roads in the Central Traffic
association. Just what this announce
ment will be is known only TO the higher
officials of the company, aud they are
not ready to give it out as yet. The
supposition is that it will be no less
than withdrawal of the Chicago q
Grand Trunk from the association.

THE MINERS STRIKE.
Both Sides Determined to Con
time the Fight.

PITTsBURG, Oct. 26.-Delegates rep
resenting all the railroad coal miners in
the Pittsburg district, now on strike,
met III convention here to-day and de-
cided to continue the strike for 90 cents
per ton. Three thousand miners at
Latrobe and Irwin, who mine coal for
the Eastern trade, will be called out to-
morrow, together with about 900 men in
the Pittsburg district, making in all
1900 railroad miners on strike.
The railroad coal operators issued
circular to day stating that they would
not pay more than 70 cents ton for
mining coal. The fight will now go on
with much bitterness, as both sides
seem very determined. The miners say
now that they will not compromise and
will hold out for 81 cents ton.
PITTSBURG. Pa. Oct. 26.-The Stand
ard Coal company, of the Hooking val
ley, has written the miners officials
asking them to send 800 strikers to the
Hooking valley. The company agrees
to advance all the money necessary for
transportation. and married men are
preferred. The miners who have been
on Il strike in this district and who are
in destitute circumstances, intend avail
ing themselves of the offer. There IS
no trouble in the Hooking valley and
the firm only wishes to increase its
force.

DIRECTORS
FINANCIAL.
New York.

New YORK. Oct. 26.-The stock market to-
day was dull throughout and. while alter
nately firm and heavy,no material movement
occurred except in one or two stocks, and
while the final changes in quotations are
generally losses they are of insignificant
fractions This state of affairs reflects only
the,uncertainty which has taken possession
of operators, though the near approach of
an smportant election has its influence in
keeping the market dull within narrow linz
IT'S The most prominent feature of the
present market is the demand for good rail
road bonds. The demand for bonds is not
confined to this side of the Atlantic, as large
orders are received from London.
The trading in stocks to-day was almost en-
tireiy of a professional character, and the
selling was the work OF these orders Foreign
operators were buyers of ST. Paul ut the open
ing. which was firm though quiet, but aside
from its activity st. Paul was not prominent
i'll the movements OF the day. Chicago Gas
was the strong point in the active list. but
Michigan Central scored gain of ia per
cent. On the other hand, Tennessee Coal,
after rising fraction to 40, dropped to 3e,
and recovered only a fraction, and Delaware
6cHuGson dropped "a, while the Advance in
Michigan Central was not held. The early
improvement in the general list was frac-
tional, and the cessation of the early de-
mand offered the usual opportunity TO ham,
mer the list down, and prices were soon
placed below the level of the opening fig
ures. and kept there for the remainder of the
day.
Covering helped partial recovery in the
last hour. bur 10 material movement took
