LOCAL TRACTION
{ SHARES ADVANCE
Features of Early Trading in
Wall Street.
Federal Steel and Sugar Refining
Exhibit Strength.
The Market Active and Irregular ut
OpeninE-SO Sensational Exhf-
billions Developed.

New York, June 12.-The stock market
opened active and rather irregular. The
Granger shares and the stocks of the other
roads in the winter wheat belt were unfa.
vorably affected by the showing made in
the Government crop report on Saturday.
After the opening dealings, however these
stocks became firm and recovered their
earlier recessions.
The industrial quarter was very active.
Federal Steel advanced slightly on buying
based upon the approaching dividend, and
Sugar Refining was also notably strong.
In the local traction stock advances were
general and pronounced, conspicuous feat
ures being Manhattan Railway. Brooklyn
Rapid Transit and Metropolitan Street
Railway.
The local market gave no response to
the lower range of prices shown in the
early London cabed adyices and to the
dealings in this market for foreign account.
Apart from the Government report, there
were no material additions to the outside
situation through the developments since
the close of business on Saturday.
The market showed a great deal of
strength with the course of the forenoon
particularly for the standard issues, which
were in undecided request. St Paul. Bur-
lingtop and Quincy. and other stocks OF
the same grade all made noteworthy ad
vances.
Aside from these stocks there were note
worthy rises in Sugar Refining. Federal
Steel, and Brooklyn Rapid Transit. There
was practically no news with the course
OF the morning, but the elimination Of the
export movement of gold had good ef-
feet, while on the other hand the Govern
ment crop report was altogether ignored as
Q speculative factor.

The Industrial Commissioa did not hear
testimony this morning. Er6est Mas, of
New York, at one time connected with the
Glucose Refining Company. os Chicago. was
to have been the witness. -btt, owing to a
desire on his part to send ID New York
for some data before testifyfng, the Com
mission consented to wait until it has some
open date Mr.. Mas will probably appear
some time before the close of the present
week. This morning was spent by the
Commissioners in executive session.
For some time past the Commission has
been considering the advisabiIity Of send
ing out topical plan Of enquiry to many
of the large trusts, accompanying it with
a request that the questions contained be
answered in writing and sent back to the
Commission. A number Of blanks to be
forwarded to each combine has been print
ed, but it has been practically decided not
to send them out. The questions included
were so framed that II answers were Sc
cured. the Commission would learn from
the trusts something Of the mode Of incor-
poration. method of doing business. method
OF absorbing rival industries and the cost
OF their plants This plan of securing in
formation, however, has practically been
abandoned.
The scheme OF sending out agents to
some of the larger concerns for the pur-
pose of gathering the desired information
is now being considered. The agents will
be selected probably some time before the
middle Of July. 1t is thought by many Of
the members OF the Commission that this
method will prove much more satisfactory
than that of sending out the blank forms
containing questions.
Albert Clarke. of Boston. who was ap-
pointed by the President Saturday to sue
coed Commissioner S. N. d. North, who
resigned on that day to accept a position
in the Census Bureau, is said to be thor
oughlY posted on industrial matters. At
present he is the secretary Of the Home
Market Club. He was born in Vermont
and about twenty years ago left his native
State to go to Boston and become identi-
fed with the Home Market Club Mr..
Clarke served four or five years in the
lower house of the Massachusetts, State
Legislature. and for some time was the
chairman Of the ways and means commit
tee in that body. II is expected that Mr..
Clarke will come to Washington within the
next few days to enter upon the duties OF
his position.

quick advance i'm the price OF wheat over
night. The declines, however, were not as
spirited as many had hoped for and little
was accomplished by the bears. small
decline in the wheat price also began soon
after the opening which was calculated to
have a good effect on the grangers- II the
general market continues bullish 1t is safe
to predict that these stocks will go with it.
The evening times., 1899-06-12

This morning furnished another edyan-
cling market, and was thus, again 4 griev-
Gus disappointment TO the bears. Prices
in Metropolitan, Brooklyn. Federal Steel
Common, and Sugar, scared for the first
two hours of the day in a most buoyant
manner, and without any suspicion of
weakness anywhere in sight. The list gen.
orally followed their lead in a more modest
way, with the exception of the grangers,
which were strong enough to hold their
own, however, despite the big advance
shown in the price of wheat over Sunday.
A reaction, after the advance of last week
had been expected by nearly everybody,
bulls and bears alike, as it was only nat
ural to look for some good profit taking
and a renewal of the bear attacks. No
such movement occurred in the morning
hours, although there was hesitation at
the opening, which induced a few small
holders to take their profits. 1t was diff
cult under the circumstances TO form any
judicious opinion as to the course of the
afternoon market. Many people undoubt-
edly looked for a reaction. On the other
hand a goodly crowd is becoming so bull
ish that ii expects a week of advances all
over the list with no serious recessions
The tendency of the market is undoubtedly
upward. And every advance that is made
in an orderly fashion without too much
fireworks. strengthens the bulls and makes
the chances of the bears so much smaller.
There was printed in The Times this
morning a statement of the position of
prominent New York financiers with re-
gard to Metropolitan. There is a heavy
short interest in the stock and yet the
biggest leaders of the market are buying
1t every day. The earnings of the system
are undoubtedly very large. In addition to
this there is persistent talk of the COM
roads discussed in this column heretofore.
The Street was evidently impressed with
this condition of affairs this morning as
the shorts in the stock began to buy heavi-
ly and the bulls took on new lines. The
result was a quick spurt of four points,
making for the last four market days one
OF the best advances Wall Street has ever
seen. The other stocks of this group also
advanced, Brooklyn getting above lis and
Manhattan above 116.
The persistent buying of Federal Steel
common by the insiders and the realization
that the stock is TO bo put on the divi-
dend list this week, probably to stay there
for years, is having its natural and un-
ayoidable effect on the stock. The price
advanced two points this morning to above
Ga, and seemed inclined even to go higher.
The preferred stock also was very strong
American Steel and Wire, on the other
hand, continued week, sagging off to be-
low 81 in the first trading. There will be
a quick reversal Of sentiment regarding
this stock some day in the near future, IL
II does not come today. that will be a Bit
ter surprise to the bears. At the same
time careful Street people favor Federal
Steel more than its companion stock. The
management of the former does not seem
inclined to jockey 1t to the same extent.
The course of the grangers was much
in doubt at noon. During the first hour
there were small recessions in all these

THE HEALTH HABIT

just as Easy to Form. as Any Other,
We do not deliberately form our pet
habits, but they are unconsciously ac-
CURED and grow as we grow, and by the
time we learn they are hurting US we
ind them too strong to be easily broken.
Then, why not form a good habit. a
habit which will counterfeit the many
pad ones, in other words, contract the
unfashiona ble- habit of being always well =?
The best health habit to get into is
to nave and keep a vigorous stomach:
II you have healthy digestion you can
drink your beloved coffee, smoke your
tavorite brand of tobacco, with little Or
no harm; the mischief begins when
these things are forced upon the faithful
stomach. without any assistance.
fcrm the habit of taking after meals
some harmless but efficient digestive
which will relieve the stomach of so
much extra work.
Nature furnishes US with sucb diees-
tives, and when they are combined in
such pleasant preparation as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets they give the over
worked stomach just the necessary as
sistance to secure perfect digestion with
out any Of the harmful effects of ca
thartics and similar drugs.
The habit If taking Stuart's Dysnens,a
Tablets after meals is as necessary to
the weak stomach as food itself, and in
deed to get the benefit from food eaten
nothing better and certainly nothing SAT-
er can be used.
Many families consider Stuart,s Tab
lets as essential in the house as knives
and forks.
They consist entirely of natural d.
gestive principles without the effect or
characteristics of drugs; they have no
cathartic action, but simply go to work
on the food eaten and digest If
Take into account your bad habits and
the expense they entail and then invest
so cents in a box Of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets and see If your digestion
for the next month is not vastly i'm
proved
Ask the clerk in any drug store the
name Of the most successful and popu
lar stomach remedy and he will say
"Stuart's."
