There was very strong market this
morning which would undoubtedly lave
been much more buoyant than it was ex-
cept for the unfortunate circumstances of
the throwing on the market of an i'm
mense line OF stocks of firm that an
nounced its failed early in the day. Many
thousands Of shares of Sugar and other
securities were sold, under the rule, - for
lack of margins, for what they would
bring, and Sugar especially dropped under
the strain. The opening was at a small
advance all over the list. with the excep-
ton of Sugar This stock alone began -
decline Immediately, but the remainder of
the list held its own until after II o'clock
when the advance began again. The look
OF the market was most encouraging

Little could be learned as TO the actual
position in the market of .Tunstall & Co,
the firm that failed this morning 1t seems
probable, however, from the market indi-
cations that the firm has been heavily
long for some time, since before the big
decline in Sugar, in fact. and that yester-
day an attempt was made TO force the
price of this stock up rapidly in order to
recoup. This morning the impetus given
to Sugar by yesterdays heavy purchases
for this firm was all lost, its buying power
apparently being exhausted, and the stock
declined TO III in short order

American Steel and Wire, common, was
again this morning the most buoyant stock
on the list. 1t advanced quickly to above

pointed out that one of the best features
of the report of the Steel and Wire Com
pany is the fact that it was compiled by
chartered and Independent accountants
and must be considered accurate end fair

in departing from the blind pool tactics

The position of Sugar stock will not be
permanently affected either way probably
by this incident. II is out of the question
to make any accurate forecast as to the
future of the stock in the absence of
knowledge as to the dividend. but for the
moment the Street is buliish regarding it.
Talk of the dividend being at the usual
rate is now heard frequently on the theory
perhaps that the company is now making
money at the higher price of sugar After
the decline in the stock this morning il
began to recover.

CLEVELAND ON ELECTION.
Former President Says There VIII BE
Landslide For Bryan.

Former President Says There VIII Be
Landslide For Bryan.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct 30.-The Times
this morning publishes the following
from Princeton, N. j.:
Former President Grover Cleveland
in an interview predicts landslide to
Bryan. He advances several reasons
for this, saying:
'You will see landslide for Bryan
the morning after the election. Of this
l am confident. There are elements all
over the country at work which it would
be impossible to draw into line for Nc
Kinley. In the first place, union labor
is for Bryan. OF recent years this Or
ganization of labor has been factor in
politics and it certainly is not favorable
to the interests of capital. The travel
ing men are for Bryan. These men,
who are small army, are of the opin-
ion that the Republican party is the pro-
tector Of corporations, and by the ANAL
gamation Of industrial interests many of
them have been thrown out of employ
ment. In the northwest, In Minnesota,
in Dakota and Iowa there are many
Hollanders. Sympathy for the Beers,
who are their own flesh and blood, will
induce them TO support Bryan. See if
I am not correct.
IL have no desire to be drawn into
any controversy over the results of the
election. but if the Republican managers
honestly think that President Mckinley
will be reelected, it is my opinion they
are mistaken. They do not know the
situation"
Further than this Mr.. Cleveland re-
fused to discuss the campaign, but there
is no doubt concerning the former presi-
dents sincerity in his expressed belief.
DR.. w. H. Lewis, Lawrenceville, Va,
writes: "I am using Kodol Dyspepsia
cure in my practice among severe cases
of indigestion and find it an admirable
remedy" Many hundreds of physi'
clans depend upon the use of Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure in stomach troubles. 1t
digests what you eat, aud allows you to
eat all the good food you need, provid-
ing you do not overload your stomach.
