JOBBING TRADE UP TO EXPECTATIONS
Tito Accumulation of Iillo Cnpttnt In tlio
Hunk * nt financial Centers Attracts
tlio Attention of lii lncM Men
Alotcmcnt of Urnln Abroad.
Vfo especially Interesting features have
boon dovclopod In local circle * of trade nnd
11 onnco. Tlio Jobbing business ot tbo past
week wai up to expectations nnd to that extent -
tent , at least , fully satisfactory.
TLo accumulation of money In the banks nt
tbo great financial centers of the country h
attracting consltlorablo ntlontlon from busi
ness men. The Journal of Finance romarlts
that the deposits of the Banks still continue
to Increase nnd now far overreach any limit
previously attained. It Is an abnormal con
dition. With a largo surplus In many of tbo
banks which can bo employed to Increase the
aggregate of their loans , with the original
capital representing millions of dollars , It is
n fact worthy of attention that , notwith
standing the efforts of the past few weeks ,
the deposit ! of the banks lor exceed tbo
amounts of money which have taken the
form of loans.
Changes In financial conditions are always
auddon , As In the affairs ot men , nt times
the darkest day precedes the brightest ; but
n condition such ns this must bo a forerunner
cither of n future encouragement or an indi
cation that something is present m the finan
cial horizon that suggests alarm.
The mussing of capital tnny not bo in the
least significant of alarm. It unquestionably
represents in part an Incrcaso In collections
nmdo more easy by reason of the prosperity
nt the year that has passed. It mny bo
awaiting the opening of a now industrial
movement. If this is the case , Uiuu the
wheels of Industry , once put in motion , will
receive an accelerated imputus from the lulo
capital seeking the opportunity of useful
ness.
In the opinion of the American Banker were
ro approaching one of tlio most critical
periods of our monetary year , und Comp
troller Lncoy's statistics ot tbo bunking de
posits and reserves , \vltli the movements of
the loans , capital and surplus , In response to
the wants of business , will bo watched with
npoclnl Interest , especially in the reserve
cities and the chief financial centers. The
anticipated Increase of tbo clearings In tbo
west and throughout the banking system of
the whole country Ifl gratifying. The total
for the first half of February throughout the
United States aggregates about $2GtW,000,000 ,
gainst $ . ' , HyOOU,000 in 18'Jl. ' The New
York clearings are $ lni5,000,000 , against
11,105,000,000 , nnd those of Chicago 5150,01)0- , )
000. against $130,000,000 Inst year.
The improvement Is irregularly but widely
diffused , with some brightening aspects in
tbo south and clsowboro. The rumors of
gold exportation nnd tbo recent sensitive
fluctuations in foreign exchange nro attract
ing u closer attention , both hero and abroad ,
to the present nnd prospective movements of
our exports. Opinions differ as to tbo prob-
nblo demand In foreign markets for our
brcadstuffa. The government report , Just
issued , of tbo crops iu Great Britain Is much
discussed. It gives loss support to the pre
vailing estimates and theories than was an
ticipated. The estimate given of the wheat
crop is. 82,127,1503 bushels , against 73.354,484
In 1890. The oat crop is stated at 112,330.201
bushels , against the aggregate of 120,188,040
last year , und the barlov crop nt 7J,129,09. >
bushels , as compared with 73,033,801 in 161)0. )
At present , of course , the heavy balance of
trade in our favor Is augmenting , both from
tbo Influx of European capital Into our indus
trial Investments and railroad bonds nnd
other corporate securities , and also from tbo
active shipments of our cereal crops. The
agurogato so far this month surpasses ex
pectation. The receipts of grain ut Chicago
were 5,035,291 bushels for the ill-it two
weeks of F'obruary , neainst 4,075,809 In 1891
and 4,203,509 in 1890. At Milwaukee -the
fortnight's report was 1,003,723 bushels ,
against 549,020 in 1891 , 025,775 in 1890 and
074,135 in 1839. Tbp general movement ot
our cereal and other exports is expected to
surpass that bt last month. The value of the
principal exports for January is given In the
rovlsod statement of the treasury at 577,145-
7721n.l89.2. against SOl.549,583 In 1891 , Tnoro
was a dcclino in cotton from 35,033,339 iu
1891 to $ -8,732,223 In 189.5. Provisions In
creased from $13,480,433 to $15,019,043. ' nnd
breadstuffs from $9,718,550 to $30,147,281.
From all the ports of the United States the
total January Incrcaso In our exports ot
breadstuffs is reported at $20,428,095 , as
compared with the same montb lost year.
For those und other reasons there has
arisen no perturbation whatever in the loan
market of late from any anxieties as to a
euddon demand for gold for shipment to
Europe. Moreover , there are not a few of
our loading authorities who contend , first ,
that , In the Improbable event of an export of
$10,000,000 of goliivo could boar the tempo
rary loss with case from our surplus re
serves ; and , secondly , that tbo speedy re
turn of the metal would bo certain in the
present state of the balance trade , wbilo the
movements of our credit in Europe would bo
greatly accelerated and improved , so that the
exported gold would bo virtually. In n very
Important sense , an efllclont adjunct to our
cash reserves , oven while transferred for a
time to the great European center of our
banking and credit system.

\Vhllo there bus been very little life to the

Till ! SPECULATIVE MARKETS
There Was a Very Decided Break in Wheat
Yesterday ,
LOW GRADES ALL GREW QUITE WEAK
Long ! Seemed to IVcl Uncertain of Their
Ground M lilln tlio Hears Appeared 1'nU
of Courage nnil Confidence
Stocks nnd llomls.
CntCAdO , III , . Tob. 27. The wheat market
had a very decided broaic today. Trade
opened extremely dull , nnd for a time prices
hold quite steady , close to the closing figures
of yesterday , lliittho low grades all grow
weak nnd when a few items ot bearish news
were collected the bulls were stamped and
prices dropped. Cables were somewhat con-
lllctltiKsome private advices qnotlngdiillncss
nnd lower prices , while others said the market
was holding Its own. The regular Hoard of
Trade cable was steady nnd firm. The gen
eral business , however , was very dull nnd
the trade seemed hesitating and cautions
with timidity the most notable character
istic. I-onjs seem to feel uncertain of their
ground , while tliobears seemed full of cour
age nnd confidence. With tlio trade In this
condition It did not require much In the way
of boar news mil much iiggrcsslvoncss on the
part ot fiollrrs to put the longs In n panic. The
fact that Liverpool was no lower after our
market of yesterday nave the friends of
wheat Rome courage ut the start , the opening
being 02o to 03Ue against Ul4c ! at thocioso yes
terday.
It hold within those figures for an hour or
more. Then this failure ot the expected cold
wave to develop any dangerous low tem
perature in the winter whe.it country began
to have u bearish effect. Next It begun
to i bo talked around that the visible
supply would show an Incrciuo of
MKMIW to GOHvtj ) Im. ; llradstrpet's reported the
exports from both coists for the week at
3.377uo ) bu. against 4.mo,0)U ) bu. last week.
Then followed u rumor that Uiissla was to
abrogate the expott prohibition ulcneo und
another Unit the Knsslnn crop ot hist year
had been found to bu luigcly In excess of other
estimates. Improbable as tlio Itimlan rumors
were , they had an Instant cll'uctoii'i market
that was already weak nnd them was a rush
on the p.irt of longs to get rid of their hold
ings und short sellers were niju.illy anxious to
got out their linos. The continued heavy re
ceipts In the northwest weru also ii drag on
thu market. Weakness was the feature of thu
market till the close , which was at IKj'ic , thu
lowest figure of tlio day and''o Lolow the top
price.
Corn was nulot but weak , owlnz partly to
the dullness of trade and partly tothobicnk
In wheat. The shipping demand was slacker
than usual and thote was very little specula
tive buying. Holders ghowcd some discour
agement tmd u good many Mild freely. The
market opened JSolilglier ut43Ue In sympathy
with the early firmness In wheat , and Im
proved ! 4c more , but It sold off to 41'io and
closed at 43c.
Outs were more nctlvo. but lower nnd weak.
The liquidation of several large lines which
commenced yesterday was continued today.
Ilclmholz was u liberal seller , offering 10J.COO
bu. blocks. The close shows u loss ot He.
1'ork had n sharp break nnd showed n loss of
23c at thu close , \\onknos3lnllve hogs
and the break In whe.it wore partly responsi
ble for this but a sudden raid by a prominent
speculator In the latter p.irt of the session
allied In the depression. There wore one or
two little rallies but they were feeble. Lard
and ribs were iess ulTectod nnd show only
Immaterial declines.

Traders' Talk.
OitiCAao , 111 , Fob. 27. Counsolman fc Day
to Oockroll Ilros. : The speculative markets
were actlvo today and a largo volume of busi
ness was done for a Saturday. Wheat opened
Uc higher , bce.uiso curly cables wore not so
weak as expected , but owing to larger receipts
at piimary points and lighter clearances from
the seaboard holders becaii.o discouraged on
prospects of n largo Increase In the visible sup
ply und the iniirket declined 2o under ho , ivy
liquidation. The steady tone of cables w.is
almost totally dlsregaulod and closing prices
w cro at about the bottom tor the day. Corn
and oats were easier , but not weak nnd there
appeared to bu liberal resting orders to buy at
limits sllzhtly below current quotations. Pro
visions declined udder frco selling of long
pork for country account. This may continue
fora day or two longer , hut wo advisa against
taking tbo short Hide of the market until It
has hud u material advance.
CHICAGO , III. . Feb. 27. Kennott , Hopkins *
Co. to S. A. MeWhortcr : For several days for
eign advices on wheat h.ivo indicated an
apathetic demand In that quarter. Our exports
have fallen oir and receipts at primary mar
kets hive Increased. Thu crop outlook hero
and abroad has Improved nnd an curly spring
with tbo ground In prime condition for plantIng -
Ing has seemed assured. The result Iris
been u decided reaction In prices und BOo
prophets uro again out In full force.
Continued liquidation by longs has depressed
oats , and the falling on" In exports of corn his
hud n bearish effect. It Is not expected that
thny will sell oir much mure ut piostmt , and
outrhtto bo a purchase on tlio decline. In pro
visions loius have let go rather freely. The
product cannot bo manufuetuiod without loss
at present prices of hogs , but It suuius to be
the fashion to Hell everything just now , and
provisions go with the rest. Lard und ribs
acted In sympathy with pork.

NEW YOHK. Fob. 27. The Post eayss The
statement of bunU averages today was pretty
much what hud been expected. Thu return
flow of money to the Interior Is obviously fore
shadowed In tbo decrease ot funds.
In fact , without gold experts , and
oven without loss through subtrons-
ury opeiutlons , the statement would
have shown decreased reserve. Prob
ably this movement will continue and nobody
need be nlurinoJ at Its continuance. The
cii'irirous glut of Idle n.oney In the Now i ork
bunks diirlni the lust tun months hi'.s been no
propitious sign. It slmpiy reflected stagna
tion. Kvents have proven that this surplus
money Is not needed an 1 cannot bo used hero :
therefore , the sooner it Is sent whore It Is
needed the better.

PRESIDENT GANNON'S POSITION. 1
Ho Will Itrsicn Kntlicr Tliiin Create or la *
diilgn In Any J'ni'tloiml recline.
Hon. M. V. Gannon , president of the Irish
League of America , was seen yesterday by a
BBI : loportor with re Co re nro to the apparent
difference of opinion botwcon himself and
Secretary Sutton on account of which the
secretary has forwarded his resignation.
"It Is nothing but n mlsundorstandilig.not i
n difference ot opinion , I think , " said Mr.
Gannon. "I hnvu written Secretary Sutton
that rather than accept his resignation f.
would resign myself , and I have
authorized him to say to the execu
tive committee that my resignation ,
will bo submitted to the comintttoo at any
time that it Is desirable to have it. I will
have nothing to do with any factional quar
rels.
rels."This
"This matter has begun over a very trivial
thing and If I have nmdo a inlstalto It has
been because I was hurried with work and
did not catch the snmo impression from the
Now York Sun editorial as Mr. Sutton did ,
perhaps. This editorial was sent to mo by
Treasurer Lyman ot Now York through Mr.
Sutton. It points out the danger to the homo ,
rule cause from the fact that many of tba
Irish members are poor men and if Parlia
ment should bo dissolved and a sudden elec
tion called , many ot them would bo un iblo to
deposit the statutoty costs demanded of all
who enter nn election contest iu Ireland !
Thcso costs vary from $1,500 for a borough. '
boat to $3,000 for u county.
"I was impressed with the force of th
suggestion on the part of the Now York Sun
to the effect that funds should bo contributed ,
by the supporter ? of the homo rule cause la !
America and upon that impulse I wrote and '
issued the letter which appeared Wednesday I
morning. 1 have no policy nsldo from tbob
of the cxecutivo comtnittco. I will engage
in no factional quarrels. The best years of
my life have been given iu n crcat dcgroo to
tbo Irish homo rule cause and this is no ttmo
for mo to have anything to do with fac
tional wrangles. I think that Secretary Sutton -
ton will understand the situation bettor
when ho reads the letter I sent him today.
So far as I arc concerned I would much
rather resign than to feel that there is the
least particle of dUcord botwcon any of thu
officers or members of the executive commit
tee and myself. I would very willingly hau&
In my resignation at nny moment. " '

siderable success , only being In bed a llttlo

attack. The second nttncu I am satisfied
would have boon equally ns had as the first

FOX QOSS TO 'FBISCO.
ItciinUltlon 1'iiparR Finally Honored for tli
Itcturn of u Smooth Hu Indler.
Mortlmor Fox ot San Francisco , who has
been boarding at tno Douclas county Jail at
government oxponbo for about four months ,
is now on the way homo accompanied by
Deputy United States Marshal Lyons and a
writ of requisition.
Mr. Fox has been the cause of a good deal
of litigation since he arrived in Omaha last
fall. Ho was arrested by the police as a
fugitive from justice und lodged In the county
Jail to await requisition papers from San
Francisco , whore Ho bad ntolea a loiter from
the'oxpross company.
The papers failed to work and Fox was
about to bo released. But the United Stales
marshal ! hud Fox arrested upon a charge of
tampering with the United States mails.
The county sheriff refused to surrender Fox
to the United States ir.uralml and Attorney
Baker had n writ Issued for his arrest. Matters -
tors were becoming rather interesting when
the sheriff finally became convinced that bo
had bettor not try to stand out against Uncle
Sam In the matter and Fox was surrendered
to the marshal , Ho was held in Jail to await
the arrival of the indictment whleh had
bean found against him in Sun Francisco.
When a certified copy of tbo indictment ar
rived a legal light took place in the United
States court over the sufllcicncy or insufll *
clcncy of the document with relation to pro *
curing requisition paper ? .
The attorney applied for a writ of habeas
corpus but never pushed the case after the
application bad been fllod ,
Judge Dund v said yesterday that ho believ r4
the writ would have boon issued U Fox's attorney - ,
tornoy had gone ahead with the case , but
having abandoned it to all appaarancos tbo
prisoner bad to bo eont back to San Fran
cisco ,
Fox Is a bright looking young man. Ho
formerly spent two years In the school of core
roction in California.
Deputy Marshal Lyons started for San
Francisco with the prisoner last night.

trip before him. Ho bas gone to
Tucson , Ariz , , with Alonzo Bird , wanted hy ,
the federal authorities In the territory upon
a charge of soiling liquor to Indians. Air. '
