A SALE OF
THE W0P.LD 8F BUSINESS
STOCKS AND EOXDS.
New York, June 18. The sales of
stocks today were 2S2.0O0 shares. The
low price Issues and Missouri Pacific
and Tennessee Coal and Iron were In
the best demand. The southwestern
Issues were again bought on the im
proved outlook for the crops, while
Tennessee Coal and Iron was taken by
Its foreign friends on the further rise
In pig Iron. The higher priced railway
stocks were neglected and few If any
of them scored net gains for the day.
The anthracite coalers, except Susque
hanna and Western, were firmer. New
England was higher, but Erie and
Louisville and Nashville were weak on
foreign selling. In the Industrials
Sugar first dropped Q 117 and later re
covered to 1184. Chicago Gas and Dis
tillng and Cattle feeding were easier.
Governor Altgeld has called a special
session of the Illinois legislature and
this perhaps may have had some Influ
ence on the course of the prices In the
late trading when the tendency was
downward. The opinion prevails here
that If there be any legislation, If pre
cedent Is any criterion, It will operate
against the securities of Illinois cor
porations listed on the local stock ex
change. The market closed steady to
firm. Net changes show declines of
al per cent, in the usually active list.
The range of today's prices for'the nc
tive stocks of the New York stock mar
ket are given below. The quotations are

Philadelphia Inquirer: A new point
has been reached In the anthracite
trade the point where the companies
will have a small tonnage as well as low
prices for the product. Individual ship
pers along the line of the Lehigh Val
ley road find they cannot make both
ends meet and nre dropping out of the
race. The company has notified all Its
shippers that the operators will not do
it. One firm has shut down one of its
collieries and iwill work the others
three days, another firm will work all
Its collieries but three days and still
another will work but two days. The
operators would prefer to shut down
entirely, but they desire to keep their
employes together and to hold their
trade as well. But there Is no money
In the business for them. The aver
age selling price of Lehigh Valley coal
In New York harbor In May was $2.9G
for stove and $2.94 for chestnut. At
these prices the operator receives $1.77
for his coal at the mines, and no oper
ator can produce coal and pay the
royalty at this price. The more coal
he mines the more money he loses. It
has taken n long time to reach this
point, but It has come at last and the
companies must now face the situation.
They have low prices and now they
w'H hve a small tonnage. This means
ruin for some of the companies, and
those that have a large output by In
dividual producers will suffer most.
It makes the situation so bnd that
one would think It would force the
companies to get together and settle
this coal problem, but the prospect Is
It will not. Things must get even
worse If possible before they get better.

The dispatch from Port Jcrvls yester
day to the effect that the Delaware

cided to abandon the canal east of
Summltvllle has been denied here. The
company would gain nothing by such
a movement. The story was probably
started In order to give Port Jervis
credit for a little news.

One of tbe Marvelous Cures
Now Being Performed by
Dr. F. B. SMITH
And Staff, 312 Wyoming Ave.
The Most Powerful Mag
netic Physicians Living,
A Helpless Cripple for
Years.
Mrs. Annie Krueger, who resides on
Drinker street, Dunmore, when Inter
viewed, made the following startling an
nouncement:
"For the past two years I have been a
helpless cripple. I could not walk a step
and was entirely confined to my room. No
one but Ood knows the awful suffering I
endured. Every Joint In my body was
swollen and so painful I could not move,
and as night would draw on the pain
seemed to Increase In intensity and often
became so excruciating that I could not
keep from crying out In despair. How
many, many,' nights I counted the hours
as they dragged wearily and slowly by. I
consulted physician after phyBlclun who
failed to give me any relief. Medicines
and llnnments were worthless, for they
did me no good. I was about to give up In
despair, when hearing of the remarkable
cures that were being made by Dr. K. D.
Smith and staff, the MAGNETIC PHY
SICIANS, at 312 Wyoming avenue, I de
cided to sond for Dr. Smith and Induce him
to call at my house to relievo me of my
awful suffering. The effect of his MAO
NETIC treatment WAS STARTLING. I
began to grow better after the first treat
ment and in one week's time I WAS ABLE
TO WALK ACROSS THE ROOOM FOR
THE FIRST TIME IN TWO YEARS. I
continued to Improve and today I am a
well woman." Mrs. Krueger Is loud In
her praises and recommends any one suf
fering from any form of disease to consult
Dr. F. B. Smith and staff, free of charge,
from 9 a. m. to 9 p. m. dally.
