THE SALMON MARKET

The New York correspondent Of the
Trade writes as follows:
Red Alaska salmon has shown some
uncertainty during the week Al one
time there was slightly easier tone
and sales were made at S1.2ShG$L25 but
association goods held their own, and 80
far as known none were sold below
The future salmon sI,u-
alton Is still unsettled everything Ge-
pending upon the action to be taken by
the combination, Until the policy Of
this new giant In salmon production IS
known It will be practically impossible
for outsiders to do any business Of inn
portance. Prices on sockeye are ex-
pected at any time now. While no one
knows positively, there are lntimatlons
circulated that these prices will be high.

MORE TRUSTS FORMING.

II the trust formation continues The
time is not distan; when almost every
thing in the country will be controlled
by them. Whether this would be bene-
fetal to the country or otherwise, We
are not prepared to state There is one
thing however that can never be con-
trolled by trust and tina, is good
health. The best means Of obtaining
this is by the use OF hostetIer's Stomach
Bitters. This wonderful medicine con-
tinues to cure al stomach, liver and
bowel troubles; the same as il has done
for the past fifty years. If you are
sufferer from dyspepsia, Indigestion
constipation, tlatulency or nervousness
do not fail to give it trial at once, as
It will surely cure you. 1t will also pre-
vent malaria and ague,

WOODSTOCK WORKS
 GO IN OPERATION J. w WooIfoIk Representing the Owners Makes Statement. ORE DEPOSITS PURCHASED The Company Has All the Money Necessary and Is Free of Debts.
 Railroads Have Granted Low
 Freight Rates on Stuff.
ORE DEPOSITS PURCHASED

Anniston, May 22-(Special.)-I Is now an assured fact that the two furnaces in Anniston owned by the Woodstock Iron Works will soon be put in active opera tion J. w woolfolk of New York. repre- senting the owners of the big iron making plants, who was in the oity yesterday and last night. gave out the information that on the first of July one of the furnaces would be put in blast and that four months later the other furnace would start up.
 It has been thought here for some time that preparations for starting up the plants were being made, but the officials of the company have repeatedly refused to give out anything. MT. Woolfolk stat ed last night that final arrangements for starting up the industries were completed yesterday.
 The Woodstock people have large con- tracts for all material needed to operate the plants. They have also bought a large lot of mules to work at the plants and at the mines. Heretofore the company has purchased all of the red ore used, but by recent purchases 1t has acquired enormous red ore lands near Rock
 
 These purchases give to the concern an almost inexhaustible supply of red ore, so important in the manufacture Of pig iron. The impression has been widespread that the Woodstock people did not own any red ore, but as a matter of fact 1t has enough to supply Alabama for ten years and it's own furnaces for fifty years.
 Will Build New Washers.
 Two new washers will at once be con structed near the plants here and large amount of brown ore will be mined With in the city limits of knniston. The com pany Is entirely free of debt and now has the largest working capital in It's his tory. The starting up of the furnaces will result in the immediate employment of at least three hundred men. Some of this number will work in the plants and some in the ore beds.
 The plants will be under the manage ment of J. w. Woolfolk, a man of wide experience in the iron-making business He has succeeded in securing from all Of the railroads coming into Anniston the same rates that are given to concerns of a smiliar kind in Birmingham and other iron districts, including l2h cent rate per ton within a twenty-five mile haul limit Anniston never before had anything approximating this rate.
 The early operation of the Woodstock furnaces is the greatest move in an in- dustrial way to take place here in years, as the furnaces owned by this company are among the very best in the South and the products of which are eagerly sought.
