PAY ENOUGH

Some people are too anxious
to save when buying q watch,
thinking that cheap one will
do as well as a good watch, and
that all the difference in watches
is in the price. Maybe it re-
quires a moral effort on your
part to pay us $1,000 for plain
looking, but honest time keeper,
when somebody else generously
offers you gold watch for$ $3.50,
and-iust for goodness sake
throws in a gold chain and
charm. OF course it is a "tame
schwindel,'' as the Jew said,
when he went up in a balloon
and couldn't find the silver
lining of the cloud. 1t happens
that now and then a person
sends off for such gold watch,
gets it, is stuck, and then losses
faith in watches and humanity
for ever and ever and ever.
We think it would pay you to
call on us and see if we have
what you want, and if we can't
suit you, at all, out of a large
stock of fine watches, why, it
is time enough then to send out
of town for $3.50 geld watch.

A HEAVY BLOW TO SHARES.
THE INCREASE OF se5, ,OoO, 900 IN STOCK
OF THE SUGAR TRUST.

Otherwise Tendency of the Market Is Up
ward-Northern Pacific Preferred and
the Industrials Inherently Weak - A
Partial Recovery.
NEW YORK. Jan. 13.-The event of the day
in financial circles was the announce
ment of a further issue of S25,OcO, 900 new
stock of the Sugar Refineries Company. The
stock market responded to this intelligence
bv a material decline all around. The mar
ket, on the whole, displayed a very sstisfac-
tory temper, and except when pressure for
a fall was exerted, the tendendy was stead
lily to rise. Northern Pacific preferred was
subjected to pressure from the opening, and
further weakness in the 1ndustrials helped
to restrain the upward tendency.
The close was heavy after a partial rally
in the final trading. the market being active
and near the lowest figures. The losses Qf
note were only three: Sugar, 15s; Chicago
Gas, TX, and Northern Pacific preferred, 1%.
The total sales of stocks to-day were 43S,-
4S3 shares, including: Atchison, % $50: Chi
cago Gas, 81 a6S: Delaware. LackawanDa and
Western, 4s0: Erie, 4,7l5 Kansas and Texas.

Railroad bonds were more active to-day,
and on the whole displayed much better
in a large measure due to the ansactions in
the Kansas and Texas seconds, which fur
nished 920, 600 out of the total days business
of 3, Gal 900, and rose 2G per cent to 81. The
stimulus to the securities of the road was
given by the statement that 2per cent would
probably be declared on the seconds.

|; Year.
The stock market was active and strong
yesterday. Bulls took 1t in charge and had
things pretty much their own way. Orders
were plentiful.
Manchester Traction was the feature. At
the last call Muslin, having orders for 1t,
SHE'D his caster into the ring and scooped
in 400 shares at 40-an advance of s. a share
over the best bid of the previous day. The
cause of this jump was due mainly to ex-
pectations that at the meeting on the 18th
the company will make one of the best
statements 1t has ever promulgated. Large
and steadily increasing earnings were also
an important factor in forcing the advance.
Philadelphia Gas was again interestiI g.
Outside orders were plentiful, and 1t sold
up to l51s, closing strong at that figure, and
with the demand unsatisied. A sale was
reported in New York at 1873. Central
Traction and Pleasant Valley were fraction
ally higher. Luster continued its upward
movements on rosy reports by President
Gamble. The rest OF the list was steady to
strong, with no important changes for bet
ter or worse.
Judge Barrett's action in New York was the
subject of some talk. He granted an in
junction in the suit of Mr.. Frank against
the Edison Electric Light Company, re-
stra1ning that company from paying a pre-
ferred dividend offs per cent in collateral
trust bonds. Judge Barrett bases his de-
cision on the ground that 1t is unlawful Tor a
corporation to issue bonds in order to raise
money to declare dividend.
Sales at the first call were TO shares of

BULLS BRACING UP.

The Weakness of n Fortnight in Wheat
Gives Place to strength-The Market
Invaded by Crowds Attracted by the
Low Prices-weak Again.
CHICAGO-Th feeling of weakness
which prevailed in wheat Monday and Tues
day gave place to one of strength to-day.
The loss of 1c of yesterday was entirely re-
covered. The strength was largely due to
local bull sentiment Public cables quoted
prices lower. but private ones said the reel
ing in the markets abroad was better. But
the most bullish factor came later in the
day in the decrease of nearly 600 900 bushels
in the available supply reported by Brad
streets. OF this decrease. however, only l3s,-
O30 bushels were on the Atlantic slopn. the
Pacific coast showing decrease OF 4fi,VoO.
The steady drop of Sc TO lOc during the
last week or so has brought n GOOD many
buyers into the market. May started at
903SG903S &c against 901 &c ut the close YESTERDAY;
sold up to 9i34c: of TO 9l5sc and back 10 9i94c
before noon During the last hour the re was
a period OF weakness caused by free selling
to realize profts'at the advance, and shorts
having already pretty well covered, there
was little demand. May went OF at 9O3sc,
rallied TO 9i5sc, on late and more encouraging
cabIes, and closed steady at 9l1ac
Corn was strong and higher during most OF
the session, largely in sym1athy with the
improved feeling in wheat. Trade was more
active. Late IN she day, when WHeat 'u,ico
weak, corn followed, closing n: medium
figures and about 3sc better than yesterday
close.
Oats followed wheat and corn, and closed
L4@1!c higher.
Hogproducis higher. Prices were lower
for the best grades. There was sharp de-
mand for products early and a further ad-
vance. Later this was satisfied and prices
settled back, the close showing small
appreciation in values.
The leading futures ranged as follows.
