STOCK MARKET FEATURES
FALLING TREND OF DISCOUNTS
 THE WORLD OYER.

London Sells 4O,O0O Shares-Coming
 Meeting of Steel Directors-Roose-
 velt-Harriman Controversy May Have
 Had Effect If Continued-Railroad
 Earnings Fall Off.
 London sold 10000 shares in the New York market yesterday, mostly Cana dian Pacific, Union Pacific and South ern Pacific, with some copper issues. The explanation of this was said to be that 1t represented proht-taking on stocks bought last Thursday or before, the English market having been closed from that time until yesterday morn ing Stocks have risen several points in the meantime-m much more In Cana dian Pacific, in fact-so that their sales gave foreign traders good profit.
 A significant feature of yesterday was the falling trend of discounts the world over. Call loans here averaged little better than 3 1-2 per cent Time loans were under 6 per cent Discounts in London and Berlin fell one-eighth cent and Paris exchange on London went down again, and private discounts were quoted one-half cent under the bank rate.
 Railroad earnings for February com ing in do not make a very strong show ing. The net is almost uniformly low- CT than a year ago. Such roads as the Southern railway, Illinois Central and Pennsylvania had loss of $180,0O0 to $48S,212.
 Including the March receipts, the tax on stock transfers since the bill went into effect in 1905 is about $115OO,OOO. If this continues Wall street would even tually furnish enough funds to build the barge canal. Obviously, per cent. bonds will not do it.
 The next quarterly meeting of the United States Steel directors will take place on the last day of the month. The estimated net earnings for the first three months of the year are oyer $40,- 100000, compared with $36,60O,OOO year ago. The main interest of the April 30 meeting will be the size of the unified orders.
 Trading in stocks in the last hour was very irregular, and fluctuations were within a narrow range. Prices were bid up near the close under the lead of Northern Pacific, Great Northern and Atchison. But nothing developed to explain these operations. In the past the Hill stocks have often been put up wflile the Hartman stocks were being .sold. That may have been the case yesterday The closing was irregular
 The publication of telegrams in Wall street purporting to come from Wash ington, giving square denial by the president of statements attributed to Mr. Hartman in letter published yes terday morning, had no effect on stocks

at the time they were made known, but it was thought that an extension of the personal controversy might disturb the market. The argument used was that it might tend to cause selling of the so-called Hartman Issues by persons who would be likely to cease being fol lowers" of that financier.

Yesterdays import of gold was the largest single amount taken since spe- cial treasury facilities were given. Of the $4,500,00O arriving in London, New York secured $S,O0OOOO. This brings the total engaged on this low range of ex- change about $7OOOO0O. More will prob ably be taken next week, Sterling jumped up nearly three quarters of a cent In the pound to level almost one and one-half cents above last weeks quotation. This reduces importing prof its to a minimum.

that's treated in this manner is made
up there's no chance for shrinking
or warping, no chance for cold air
to escape, or for warm moist air to
enter.
+ A'special line "Odorless" Refriger-
ator is made with a water cooler,
which entirely separated from every
other chamber and the ice does not
come in contact with the water.
One little wrinkle that my wife
also discovered was to put all such
foods as milk. butter, cream, ETC.,
on the lower shelves, and the
"smely" stuff higher up. The
more it smells the higher it was put
in the box. That way we were
able to keep milk and meats, canned
goods, cheese and onions in the
same compartment without mixing
smells. You see how it works now
don't your
Other wrinkles are, not to wrap
the ice in paper or cloth-you don't
need to in the "Odorless"-and be-
sides it keeps the air from coming in
to direct contact with the eice---and
that's very essential; or to put food in
to the ice chamber. They'll keep bet
ter in their proper place-the food
compartment.
The "Odorless" is used by such
authorities on food and cooking as
Mrs. Rorer, Mrs. Scattergood,
principal of Albany, N. Y, School
of Cookery; Mrs. Lemcke, principal
of Brooklyn, N. Y, Cooking School;
Mrs. Hoyle, principal of New Or
leans Cooking School, and many
others-are enthusiastic about
"Odorless" Refrigerators, and use
them exclusively in their work. and |
the splendid satisfaction they give in
of food has placed them
in thousand of homes where per-
fectly sanitary conditions are valu-
ed.
"Odorless" Refrigerators are
made with Zinc, White Enamel and
Porcelain lining. There's an "Odor-
