LOCAL MARKET
 WAS NOT AFFECTED
Agitation in Iron and SieeI Circles
 Confined to Wall Street.
RUMORS OF A BIG DEAL
Local Producer Said To Be Figuring on Large Export Contract-PricesA Are Firm and Believed Will Be
 Maintained

The great agitation in iron and steel cir cles, which was precipitated by the bear movement inaugurated in iron and steel securities in Wall street, has had no per- ceptibe effect on the local market. Per- sistent rumors of a break in the price of pig iron is not borne out by real facts, and while some small concessions have been noted, the market has been strong under d steady demand. In fact, the greater part of the production of this dis trict is delivered on contracts, while the surplus finds ready sale at ruling prices.
 It is stated good authority that one of the largest producers in the district has practically closed a contract for a large quantity of pig iron for export, the exact amount ranging, according to the rumor, from 10000 to 25,O0O tons. The presence of MT. Bowron, vice-president and treas urer of the Tennessee company, in Liver pool gave rise to the rumor, and while nothing concerning the reported deal, it is known that some correspondence has been carried on in reference to the trade.
 The local situation from an unprejudiced viewpoint is as strong as at any time within the past six months and it is the general opinion that prices will be main- tained throughout the year, with a pos sibility that even a higher range will be reached before 1901.

How to Find Out.

Fill bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; sediment or settling indicates an un- healthy condition of the kidneys; if it stains the linen it is evidence of kidney trouble: too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
