velopment of this disease can be
prevented by cheap and simple
diet, the health service experts say.
The Reading Railroad has re-
ceded from Its position that its EN-
ployes are under interstate COM
merce statutes and therefore can
not be affected by the Pennsylvania

the Nashua N. H. Manufacture
ing company and the Jackson mills
have secured wage increases These
concerns say they will pay the
prevailing wage" as usual A
strike at these mills, which, started
last october to enforce wage de-
mands, was recently settled.
Freight handlers at the Fall
River Steamboat line dock have re-
ceived wage increases promised If
they returned TO work. The old
rate was 1917 cents an hohr. Now
they will receive % cents an hour
from $50 to In the morning and
q cents from then until Z al night.
They will be paid these rates if the
boat is late.
The street car strike on the Stark
Electric and Cleveland, Alliance
and Mahoning Valley Ohio inter-
urban and Alliance city lines has
ended with motormen and conduc
tors winning wage increases, The
new wage scale calls for these rates
respectively per hour for the first
and second six month periods and
after two years: Alliance city, %,
"a and 20 cents; Stark Electric in
terurban, 26, % and 30 cents;
Cleveland, Alliance and Mahoning

discriminate against any employe
because of strike activity.

trict No. 2 at Clearheld, Pa, have

ted Mine Workers Union after con-
ferences lasting nearly a month.
The operators accept the check eff
system for both miners and laborers
and Substantial wage increases have
been secured for all classes of work
ers in and around the mines. The
contract is to continue for tive
years. About so, employees are
affected. This district is separate

RUNAWAY MARKET
FOR STEEL PRODUCTS
No End TO Rise In Prices Yet in
Sight-Rails Purchased.

The runaway steel market is reaching
price levels described by trade authori-
tics as dangerous. but still no end 20
the upward price movement is in sight.
Different makers are giving quotations
as much as s. ton different on the
same material Apart from some slack
ening in buying for building work
there is little let-up in purchasing.
Railroads are buying rails for next
year and equipment orders are large.
The Iron Age" says: ANY last yes
tige OF doubt as 20 the runaway ehsrsc-
ter OF the steel market IS being swept
out OF the way. Prices reach new dan
ger levels Eith each week, but demand
does not halt on that account; IL rather
grows. And al the time ~ 10 harder 20
locate the market, s. a ton difference

ing common.
Railroads have no fears about buy
inC rails for next year a. half the price
o. bars. with assurance of desired roll
incs thrown In. Raj road bridge work
is also an important factor. and the
weeks rolling stock contracts have been
good about $500 cars and 275 loco
motives. There IS foreign inquiry for
about $4,000 cars"
"The Iron Trade Review" will say:
"Superlative language falls short %
conveying clear impression Of the
tremendous breadth and strength OF
the remarkable conditions that now
prevail Prices are moving easily
through high levels which. under ordi-
nary circumstances. would not be re-
garded a within the range Of market
probability, and this Is going on week

MEYER q co. SELL OUT
CUBA CANE HOLDINGS
Corporation Syndicate to Close
Soor-Raw Sugar Takes Jump.

Eugene Meyer, Jr., & Co.. who took
over that portion Of the S5OOOO.000
preferred stock Of the new Cuba Cane
Sugar Corporation not Withdrawn by
the members Of the original syndicate,
announced yesterday that the amount
Of their offering had all been sold.
This news was followed BY rise In
the common stock traded IN on the
curb. which sold up 70 65, gain Of s
points over Tuesdays last sale. d.
rector Of the company estimated that
net earnings for the current year would
aggregate S20.000.O00. or a. tho rate Of
more than SD per cent on the junior
shares. Half Of the 1916 crop o. cane
sugar. he said. had already been sold.
The syndicate which underworld the
preferred stock probably will be closed
next week.
Buying, chiefly for foreign account,
advanced the price Of raw sugar yester-
cay 20 the highest level OF the present
upward movement. Cuban centrifugal
sold at 5.72Q 5.77, at which price local
refners bought about 100000 barrels
for April and May shipments. Euro
pean operators purchased about 5000
tons IN Cuba, 10 be exchanged 1or q
similar amount Of granulsted here. Ex-
porters also bought about 1900 tons
of the rsW product in this market 81
$500 $50. Il was said that some sales
were made a. six cents.
The strong tone Of the market led
local -efners 20 believe from the large
advance business done that there would
be r. further advance IN graduated.

COTTON DECLINES
IN NERVOUS MARKET
Offers Increase on Rumors OF
French Restriction OF
Imports.

The cotton market was extremely
nervous and irregular. For a time ~
looked as though the more optimistic
feeling in stock market circles was
inspiring quite an active Wall Street
demand for cotton. and prices sold up
rather sharply during the middle Of
the day. Later. however. che buying
.apered OF. and offerings increased on
rumors that France ,ght prohibit inn

and reports that the South was selling

points. More favorable trade sdyices
from Liverpool, predictions OF in
creased exports toward the end Of the

early advance.
Rather disappointing Liverpool cables
and reports that spot cotton had been
offered little more freely m the
South late yesterday seemed 20 create
some reactionarv sentiment az the
start. and, after opening points high
cr 20 points lower, active months sold
about ( 20 3 points under Mondays

were again good buyers OF July, and
the market soon frned no on broad
