Mew York, May 2. If there has
been any diutt existing us to the char
acter (if thi? current spceulutlon today's
operations at the stock exchange ought
ctitalnly to dispel them, for days paat
the chronic bears whenever the upward
movement laprtred, have pegged away at
the llvt, at one time uslnt; the light
cavninirs of the cianst-rs, and at anoth
er the apparent Inability of ihe sub
eUUury uttlc-ials of the anthracite coal
roads to get together on the question
of the May output. This, It v.-as claimed,
would InevltaMr lead to a ruinous coal
war. Today, however, the coal sales
airtnta met nnd agreed to mine three
days u we-k; Instead ofvorklns dally
to their full capacity, and even the
ltcudlnjr reprprtcnttttlvo stated that hln
company would not stand In the way of
a settlement of the troubles now per
plexing; the trade. Thin was a severe
disappointment to the wlseucres of the
T'treet who have been (villus the coalers
short on the prospect of a war, and In
the last hour of business there was
some heavy buying to cover contracts

riusar was more active than the coalers,
but Its fluctuations are of far less Im
portance to the general public. Over
60,000 shares of the stock were traded
in at lll?4al l.J'4, closing 112. The
strength of the stock was attributed to
buying by n new bull pool, ltefined
wad advanced again today for one
grad:' of sugar. This appears to be a
part of the bull programme. Chicago
Gaa and Leather were also more active
at n higher range. Among the low
priced stocks Louisville, New Albany
and Chicago, Hocking Valley and Pa
cific Mail scored higher figures. Pull
man palace car Bold at 177, the best
price for a Ions: time past. The market
closed stronger and confident. Net
changes for the day show gains of
to 2 per cent. Total Bales 328,812 shares,
of which 50.700 were American Sugar,
38,300 Chicago Gas and 30.200 Leather.
The gangers were stimulated by
good crop news and Improved about

The Pennsylvania railroad has placed
a second order for steel rails, the quun
tt'ty being 20,000 tons. The Pennsylva
nia Steel company will furnish 8,000
tons, the Cambria Iron company 7,000
tons, and the Carnegie works 6,000.
The price Is understood to be $22 per
ton. So far this year 'the company has
ordered 47,000 tons.
The fact has come out thait the allot
ment of tonnage for May was objected
to at the meeting of the Bales agents on
Tuesday unless the Pennsylvania rail
road would come Into the agreement.
As that company had no representative
at the meeting (It has not had for a
long; time) the meeting was adjourned
until today. Unless the Pennsylvania
railroad changes thepollcy ltestablished
many years ago It will not make a
definite contract to restrict the produc
tion of coal. Coal has been sold very
low recently. The New York school
contract was taken at the rate of $3.86,
put In the bin. The charge for unload
ing from the boat, carting and storing
In the cellars. Is generally reckoned In
New York at $1.10 per ton. At that esti
mate the coal nt'ts the seller $2.86. The
contract for the Buffalo Water works
was taken at a very low price. The
coal 25,000 tons Is to be delivered on
Che dock at $3,26 per ton. The freight
charges to Buffalo are $2, which leaves
but $1.26 for the coal at the mouth of
the mine. Reading made an offer to
take this contract at $3.65 per ton, and
an Individual Lehigh operator put In a
bid at $3.43.

HE WASJEALED
Of Rheumatic Paralysis
by Dr. Frank B. Smith,
the Magnetic Physician,
at 312 Wyoming Ave
nue, Scranton, Pa.
Mr. H, B. Cain, who resides near this
city, was stricken down about thirteen
months ago with rheumatic paralysis.
His sufferings have been eo great that
at times it was feared he would lose
his mind. For the past seven months
his lower limbs have been paralyzed
and ho has had to be lifted from his
bed to a chair. Notwithstanding the
Tact that both limbs were paralyzed tho
pain and tenderness In his left leg was
terrible; the slightest touch would
throw him Into a paroxysm of frightful
pain and Buffering, which would con
tinue unabated for hours at a time.
His helpless condition, together with
the pain he suffered, often caused him
to pray for death. Physicians far and
near were called to see him, but none
gave him tW; desired relief. Hearing
of the wonderful cures made by Dr.
Smith he applied to him for help, and
we are happy to say secured It. From
the Hist magnetic treatment he began
to Improve. After the seventh he was
freed from all pain and all suffering
came to an end and at tho expiration
of four weeks he could walk without
the aid of crutches or cane. This cure,
like many others which Dr. Bmith has
made, Is unimpeachable evidence In
favor of his strange and mysterious
powers to heal the sick. He will give
a written guarantee to cure all cases
of piles, fissure, fistula in ano, stricture,
veriococele and hydrocele he under
takes. He treats successfully catarrh,
dyspepsitu, heart dlsepsei liver com
plaint, disease of the kidneys and till
forms of chronic diseases. He cures nil
forms of ovarian tumors without the
use of the knife. The doctor will con
tinue to heal the sick free of charge at
the Academy of Music every morning
nt 10 o'clock. Consultation free at 312
Wyoming avenue from 9 a. m. to 5 p. m.
230 Lackawanna Ave., Scranton

We aro our own severest critics; the business must not get into
ruts; we've no right to think we're doing things as well as they can
be done we don't think so. Yesterday's storekeeping wasn't such a
storekeeping as we'll be ablo to give you a year hence,or today or to.
morrow. That's how we judge ourselves. . .
COTTAGE
