And what is better it has the sum of $525 to it's credit in the Southport bank If the town is willing to add five or six hundred dollars to this sum it is believed good auto machine can be had, which is needed to draw the fire fighting apparatus.

 Some people have been wondering could vote to bond the town for the sum of $16.000 for the building of sew CTS. It appears that the village of Westport has been made into fire district and that the electors of the district have the power to call a meet. ing, and also to act independently or Judge D. B. Bradley. Jr.. they have the same powers conferred upon them as the School Board. and any action they may take is legal. Why a fire craze is another question not so cas- fly answered. It would seem that the matter of sewers Is not in any way connected with fires. At the meeting held on Thursday evening IT men vot- ed in favor of issuing notes to the amount of $16.0O0 to pay for system of sewers, and 16 men voted against the proposition. If this vote stands, and no one gets out an injunction, those property owners who benefit by the new sewers will have to foot the bills It is proposed to run the sew CTS into the river, and not attempt any sort Of disposal after the manner of settlement basins.

GAY a. sTURofs GOSSIP.

Boston, April 1.-THE markets
opened buoyantly and although a good
deal of profit taking was met, main
tanned a very good tone to the close
with prices at that time not far from
best.
Professional sentiment Is against
the market as is quite natural i'm view
of the sudden advance and the short
interest tonight is probably largely
increased.
Probably an effort will be made in
the morning to make them sell off.
If so would buy as the market has
all the earmarks OF being advanced
by important people.

and they are likely to do better.--I J.

action the buying appeared better than
the selling.
Strength in Indiana is said to be due
to the near approach of the diamond

cent per pound today.
New York, Apr. 14.-It is difficult to
change the opinions of a bearishly in
clined person. To such people condi-
tons have looked blue and their talk
has been pessimistic for some time.
After the close yesterday, there was no
exception and the old argument that
stocks were advanced too rapidly and
should have violent setback was
heard on all sides.
Stocks undoubtedly have had rapid
advance but there has been so little
buying for long account that they are
still in a strong position. Confidence
is now all that is needed to start the
wheels in motion and this confidence is
gradually returning.
The real danger to the bull position
is the pyramiding by weak traders and
protecting their accounts with stop or
ders. There is none of this in the
market at the present time, and the
contrary, the stop orders are in force
on the way up instead of on the way
down.
The Bank of England rate remains
unchanged, showing an easier financial
condition i'm that center. The buying
of odd lots of steel on every setback
is large. The best of buying in Great
Northern pfd, continues.
The short interest i'm Shelters ana
Amalgamated is still very large.
ON all setbacks, / would buy such
stocks as Shelters, Great Northern

and Realty. IL. wainwright.

The deliveries into domestic con-
sumption in March were nearly $4,000

from large consumers. whereas both
the January and February statements
showed deliveries largely i'm excess of

close to that of March and may exceed
il; but even if there is further sharp

In this country in April, especially as
imports during March wero unusually
heavy. In fact. even if there is a de-
crease of 100000 pounds TO 100000
pounds in supplies from American
sources the output this month will be
considerably in excess of consumptive
requirements.
Surplus stocks in the hands of pro-
ducers at the beginning of April were
about 124,000.000 pounds and there
were also surplus stocks nearly as
great carried by second hands. as re-

Asbestos States.

Asbestos states, it is claimed, are
as hard and as strong as the natural
states, and can, therefore, be laid on
wall or roof construction without any
wooden laths being necessary. They
are very easily worked, and can be
bored, nailed and cut just like wood,
without any danger of splitting. They
form a fireproof covering for inside
and outside wooden walls, are valu-
able for insulation work of all kinds,
even for electrical purposes; are Of
great use in building railway car
riages as insulating material under
the seats. for use in postal telegraph
work for insulating the switches; for
covering iron and wooden construc-
lions; for use as fireproof doors for
closing off single rooms in stores.
warehouses, ETC.; for lining wooden
doors and for covering walls and cell
ings of all kinds so as to protect them
from fire, heat, cold, dampness, dis
ease, germs and vermin.
