A Mystery Solved.

For months frequent attempts have
been n to bull General Electric stock
on rumor that II had received its share
OF highly profitable war business, All
these attempts failed. General Electric
stock would not bulge. The market
letter Of Clark. Childs a Co. contains
a unique explanation Of this phenomenon.
1t seems that the European business OF
tho General Electric was placed under a
corporation known as 'L'Union." This
company was afterward sold to a Ger
man concern named the Allegebe!ne Elec-
tricitat Gese!lschaft, there being an ex-
change Of securities In connection win

NEW SUGAR TAXATION URGED.
Frank Q. Lowry suggeats Adoption
Of Consumption Levy.

Frank c.. Lowry. manager of the
sales department OF the Federal Sugar
Refining Company, has written to Presi-
dent Wilson and Congress urging the
adoption Of a consumption tax on sugar
instead or q continuation OF the present
tariff, as has been proposed by the Ad-
mihistration. Mr.. Lowry says:
III because of extraordinary expendi-
lures It Is now decided that sugar must
be taxed for the purpose OF revenue.
then the Democratic party, which passed
consistent and equitable measure In the
adoption Of a revenue tax on all sugar
consumed.
such a tax OF 1 cent a pound would
yield $4,000. 900 annually end would
not increase the price of sugar 10 the
consumer any more than the present
tariff. Practically all European 'coun-
tries adopt this means Of raising rev.
enue. This method provides that the
amount paid by the people instead OF its
being shared with he domestic pro-
ducers, as IL now the case.
III the German tax rate of l.5l cents
a pound were levied in this country
IL would yield S126. 000. 900 and Increase
the cost to the public but - cent a

1886 cents a pound. and the Austria

International Nickel.

International Nickel stock reflected no
uneasiness over the attack against the
company made in Congress, This Is one
company that can probably afford to
regard anything Of this kind with equa-
nimity. 1t practically controls the nickel
supply of the world, but Notwithstanding
this practically impregnable position 1t
has followed the policy OF avoiding ex-
travagant prices. 1t lie hard TO see what
difference It will make to the company
whether tho Government does its W
construction or let's out contracts to
private builders. Tit nickel will have to
be used all the same. and nickel Is not
in the position of copper or steel.
