CONTRACT LET
For Finishing the Work on Lauderdale
 Court House

Florence, April 20.-(Special.) .)-Eley & Smith of Chattanooga, Tenn, one of the most prominent contracting firms in the south, were today awarded the contract for the completion of the Lauderdale county court house, the price being $23,- OOO The original contract called for $27, ,S45, and was held by Arthur Marshall, who Jumped the job after spending some $12,- 0OO on It. He had drawn only about $9, 800 from the county, leaving about $1S.5OO still
 due on the original contract. Marshall
 was bonded by the Fidelity Surety and Deposit company of Baltimore, Md for S1O,OOO, and after he skipped the building committee called for new bids for the completion of the work. These bids were presented a few days ago and were re- Jected by the surety company which had the authority to build the court house on their own responsibility. They rejected the bids and today gave the contract to Eley & Smith. The building committee has added about 5000 in extras, which will make the total cost of the building to the county about s31,OO0, and 1t will be a very handsome structure when completed. The new contractors will begin work next Monday morning and will rush it as rapid ly as possible. They expect to complete the contract by the first of September.

 Iron.
 The strength of iron can literally be made out of iron. All doctors prescribe iron for weak constitutions, would like to- But most iron preparations blacken the teeth and have disagreeabe taste pr. Harter was the first physician to dis cover pleasant-tasting preparation of iron, which does not blacken the teeth It is prepared from the pyrophosphate of iron, recognized by scientists as the best of all the salts of iron.
 It is called Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic. Backache, sideache. muscleache, head ache and all other aching pains can be driven out with Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic. It cures chill and ague.
 The Iron goes into your blood and from there to all parts of your body that need it.
 Geologists know when they see red earth that there is iron in it. Doctors, that red blood has iron in it.
 Pale people need iron to color their blood. White blood is unhealthy.
 Red strong, robust people with bright. ruddy cheeks have plenty of iron in their blood, and all the iron strength that goes with 1t.
 Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic will give this strength to you, if you want 1t.

together unprepared for a decline in this portion of the market
 What surprised and dismayed the spec ulative public in connection with the se- we're break in American steel and wire stocks and the other steel materials was the apparently well founded reports that the closing down of some of the company $ mills, though, perhaps, warranted by busi- ness conditions, growing out of over-pro- duction and decreased consumption at the prevalent high prices, was attained by heavy selling of both the common and pre- ferred stocks by inside interests. In fact, even if the declines in finished steel prod uct furnished a proper cause for the ac- ton of the Infringement in its suspending operations for the time being, it was promptly concluded that the manner in which this was done and the sudden na- ture of the announcement, left little doubt as to the speculative reason behind the move.
 Under these circumstances. particularly as there were prompt confirmations of the reported concessions in steel prices gen. erally, all of the iron and steel stocks, with few exceptions, shared more or less in the general break and were only rallied by heavy covering of short contracts. The railroads share list, which at first was inclined to hold it's ground in the face of the demoralization of the industrials, de- veloped more or less irregularity and weak ness. Favorable crop prospects in the west have been a factor in connection with the Granger railroad shares, and attracted some buying to that portion of the list
 Wheat has declined a fraction in price and corn advanced fraction, both mar kets being rendered comparatively inac- tive by certainty, but the remaining re- quirements will be easily met.
