MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New York, June 26. The Industrials
again monopolised speculative attention
at the Stock Exchange today. Sugar
was the leading feature and on dealings
of 136,600 shares, ranged between 113 K a
U6V4. Closing at the top ugures. Yes
terday the traders almost to a man were
arrayed on the short side of the account,
but this morning there was a decided
change for the better because of the
sharp recovery in both raw and refined
sugars. Early cables reported the mar
ket for raws stronger tahn for a long
time, while at home the refiners lifted
the prices all around, the advance ex
tending from V to Vi cents per pound
This movement was entirely unexpect
ed by stook operators, and the advance
in the certificates of nearly 3 points is
due In a great measure to covering for
their account. The recent 10-polnt drop
In the stock also led to buying by lower
Wall street interests, who have been
rather bearish of late. Tobacco and
Leather preferred were heavy, the for
mer selling down from OGVi to 63 and
the latter from 60V4 to 67. The break
In Tobacco was ascribed to the liquida
tions of a block of stock bought recent
ly on the belief that the directors In
tended to resume dividends on the com
mon stock. It is now stated that action
has been indefinitely postponed. Boa
ton houses were the largest sellers of
Leather preferred. The railway list
was sustained at the opening by London
buyers. Prices advanced fractionally
on very moderate transactions and then
speculation in this group came to a
standstill. The withdrawal of $400,000
of gold from the sub-treasury for ex
ports to Germany and Canada had lit
tle Influence, while the announcement
that the radical silver men will control
the Democratic convention served to
check business, if it did not actually
lead to short sales. When Sugar ral
lied near the close the general market
responded in a feeble sort of way and
closed Arm In tone. Lake Shore and
the Anthracite Coalers were In good re
quest, the former rising 3 per cent, to
153 on purchases of only GOO shares.
The total sales were 228,000 shares. Net
changes show gains of a',4 per cent,
outside of Lake Shore and Sugar, which
advanced about 3 per cent. Tobacco
and leather preferred lost lal per cent.

The process of ni
tration is shown in
the cut, by perco
lation through a
porous natural
stone from the up
per to the lower
Jar simply by the
force of gravity,
which Is nature's
own process of fil
tering. Our Altering disci
are a natural stone,
quarried from the
earth, which la of
such a nature that
it does not allow
the nith it extracts
to enter its pores;
but retains all Im
purities upon Its
surface whence
they are removed
in cleaning, which
Is as simple an operation as the cleansing
of an ordinary jar or pall. Our Alter dlsu
can be cleaned in two minutes ready for
use, whan it Is the same as new.
Every part of our Filter Is easily gotten
at for the purpose of cleansing.
Our Filter is all stone and there la noth
ing to rust and corrode orbecome foul.
