Recent disclosures regarding indus
trial promotions in this country, and the
losses incurred by holders OF Steel Sc
curities have so shaken confidence
abroad that foreigners hesitate to take
an active part in the American market.
Disturbing rumors are again hanging
over the market. A vague report was
circulated today that something bad"
nature of the coming sensation is a
mystery.
The strength Of the general list is
discouraging to manipulators who have
been depressing steel issues to facilitate
short selling on other stocks. Judging
from the close of todays market, it
looks as though the weaker element of
short interest win be forced to take
these stocks back at advanced prices.
A more cheerful feeling prevailed this
morning. Notwithstanding the fear of
an unfavorabIe bank statement. Until
the figures were published trading was
dull, but In the last half hour business
became more active and prices ad-
vanced. The market closed firm.
An unsuccessful attempt was made to
force renewed liquidation. The move
ment resulted in Steel being sold to a
standstill. without affording opportuni-
~ for the covering OF railroad stocks.
The money raising operations OF the
Baltimore and Ohio and the Panhandle
have caused less comment than might
have been expected. The speculative
community is somewhat apprehensive,
however. lest the large appetite Of the
railroad corporations for money curtail
the supply available for stock market
operation
Current bank statements are worth
less as indicating the true position of
the banks Students Of finance believe
publication Of the clearing house system
of averages, as the figures only confuse
Wall Street and create false impress
sion on the public mind regarding the
position OF the New York banks
The bear forces Sc far have confined
their operations almost exclusively to
the industrials. particularly to United
States Steel There has been no con-
certed- effort to break railroad stocks.
An exception might be made in the case
OF Missouri Pacific, but II Is suspected
that the heavy selling Of that stock
on Thursday was largely for pool ac-
count

its merits so thoroughly that even the

BUILT OVER.
Food That Rebuilt a Mans Body and
Built 1t Right.

By food alone, with a knowledge OF
what food to use, disease can be ward
ed off and health maintained, also
many W. chronic diseases can be
cured. II is manifestly best and safest
to depend upon food to cure rather
than too much drugging.
A case in point will Illustrate. A
well known man of Reading, Pa, treas.
urer of a certain club there, says: II
have never written a testimonial letter
but | have been using Grape-Nuts about
a year and have recovered my health,
and feel that | would like to write you
about ii for the case is extraordinary.
For five years | was a sufferer from
a dreadful condition of the bowels; the
trouble was most obscure" Here fol-
lows a detailed description and the
condition certainly was distressing
enough "details can be given by maid q.
Nothing in the way of treatment
OF drugs benefited me in the least and
an operation was seriously considered.
In May, 1901, | commenced using
Grape-Nuts as a food and with no Idea
that 1t would in any way help my con.
dltlon. In two or three weeks time |
noticed an improvement and there was
a steady gain from that time on until
now | am practically well. | don't
know how to explain the healing value
of the food but for some reason. al
though it has taken nearly a year, |
have recovered my health and the
change is entirely attributable to
Grape-Nuts food, for | long ago quit
medicine. | eat only Grape-Nuts for
breakfast and luncheon, but at my
night dinner | have an assorted meal"
