Din Ing this exliemely cold weather dressed
xniltry sells much better than the llvo and as
tcostslossto ship tliodrosscd It Is stiango
hat some shippers persist In bending In llvo
lioultry.
The cold weather has been especially harden
on Importois of bananas. It Is said that there
aio thirty cais of this fruit on the sldo tracks
of Chicago , the greater p.nt of which has been
either/-hilled or thoiovghly fro/en.
Celery Is said to bo quite plenty In southern
, 'allfornla but. as the cabbage there Is held so
Iilgli as to ell-courage eastern buyers from
enduring , xery little is arriving In this maiket
is no ono wants a whole car of celery.
'Consumers ' have begun a very effective

The Minneapolis Produce Bulletin remarks
that , n Ices on butter are certainly too high at
pio'ont to bu sustained for any length of tlmo.
The buttorlno men are getting in their work to
good effect , and will not penult , tlio price to
omalii tlrm at the figures now i ullng. Hut at
.hosamotlmo It Is not to bo expected that
t hero n 111 bu any gieal decllno under present
cliciimstanccs. Supplies are tooltght through
out the country for that. Theio Is Httlo butter
to bo had anywhere , except In a hand-to-
mouth manner , and the -soveio cold weather
which has piovalled the past few weeks all
over the countiy will have n
tendency to fiuther curtail production.
The only thing , thciefoio , that , can
weaken thu market Is the falling oil of con
sumption and the Inioads of bntteilne. And
light heio it might bo said that It would bo a
piotty good thing for tlio friends of butter If
they would not pounlt the price to go too
high tight now. The higher the pi Ice of butter
tlio better the butterino men are pleased and
the moio stock they are enabled to sell. And
the moio of a hold that uiitterlno gets on con
sumers the iiuio dllllcult It will bo to dlslodgo
Iho spin lous stuff when attempted by legl-da-
tlou. Theio appeals to bo a good , sluing
mat kot for low grades , hut the demand for
mediums Is curtailed all around by oleo-
maigailno. Tlio line butter Is selling neil at
the advance , as there is never any tioublo
maiketlng this line.

CHICAGO. 111. . Jan. 19. Kennett , Hopkins < t
'o. lo S. A. McWhoi ter : Tia Ing In wheat has
been very laigo and the market at times
wildly e\clte < l. A somewhat higher opening
than the close yesterday met enoimous olToi-
Ings , which are geneially ciedltod to the so-
called clique , and under those olfoi Ings the
m.uket foioko badly. The weakness was
largely assisted by tlio selling ofscatleied
outside holdeis , and In fact directors of the
board have posted for the consldeiatlon of
mi'inbois a piopo-dtlmi to make No. 1 noilhein
dollvorablo on out No , 2contr.ictn. A number
of absuidstoiles have been eliculated lo ac-
( ! onnt for the breaks , among otheis one that a
piomlnont short had on vestoiday walked up
to Iho captain's ofllco and settled 4,000,000 bu.
of blunt wheat at U3c and that this
transaction hail loltcved the clique of so much
wheat that they were willing to sell the re
mainder today on the market. Thlsstatoment
wo consider ildlculous , but It had some olTeot
on prices. It seemed to bo generally conceded
at the close that the buircontlngont hav u Hold
voiy heavily dining the past three days. Corn
and oats have been quiet , and have sympa
thized somewhat In the weakness of the
wheat market , but tiadlng has not been largo
and both markets have steadied up somewhat
fooforo the closo. There was but little news In
either commodity. The piovlslou market lias
been strong In spite of the fact that hogs woiu
lower and that an ollort was made by both
packera and hog shippers to break the mar
ket still further. It begins to look as if local
bulls were after having shaken out tlio scat
tered holders and will take hold of the market
for an upturn. It Is haul to determine
whether It Is for a scalp or a Ion ; ; deal.

Considerable Irregularity Shown insecur
ities itlth Some Mill's ArtUe.
NKW YORK , Jan. 19. The stock market
today showed considerable Iriegulniity In Its
movements , though the general list as a rule
was heavy , until tlio last hour. The opening
advances alone prevented several material
declines. Thcro was rather more actlv Ity and
mote pressure of longs , which were especially
noticeable among the giangcis , Heading , Now
Knglnnd and Hocking Valley coal , while some
stocks , especially Industilal.s , Western Union
and Richmond & West I'olnt continued strong
on Insldo buying. The market was dominated
principally by tlio assurance that consldeia-
blo gold estimated In some quartern as high
as $4,000.000-would leave tlio country on
.Saturday. The situation In 1'arls , It Is thought ,
will havu Inlliienco on both the London and
New Vork mat kets. The heavy los of gold by
the Hank of Prance and the uneasiness of
savings banlc depositors In that country Is
causing 1'ranco to draw heavily upon Kngland
for gold , which In turn draws upon this coun
try.

This Influence , however , was combated
cfloctually by the unusual case In money ,
whllotho elimination of the short Interest

over all tin' traderon the bull sldo of the
markets. Declines therefore , meet with stub
born resistance and the street having become
familiar with gold exports at a seasonable.
tlme.pavH less attention lo them as tlmo weais
away Tlio special features of today's market
weio the decided weakness In New Kngland
and the strength of Western I'nlon , Hlehmond
ft West I'olnt. New Kngland was sold heavily
and the source of the selling was a in ) story to
the street. Humorweio circulated .that the
Philadelphia syndicate was disposing of Its
stock and alt > o that 1'iesldent 1'arsons had re
signed , the Inference from each being that the
long stock would como upon the market. Thu
price declined steadily until Iho last hour ,
dropping fiom 50 to 40 % , rallying
a f i act Ion In the last hour , but
clo > lng the day with a net loss of
2 percent. Manhattan yielded l' ( percent ,
and HiM-klng Valley coal and Iron 1'i percent ,
but neither atltactcu much attention during
thu day The Industrial stocks were nil
closing with an advance of a 4 percent ,
The strong points of the market , however ,
were Western I'nlon and West I'olnt , which ,
together with the Industrials , enjoyed Insldo
support. Western Union crossed par and
closed at Its highest figure , with u gain of IS
percent , being now higher than It has been In
a long while , Richmond .V West I'olnt was
bought heavily by oulMders , and , although
thu company under the proposed reorganl-

closed with a gain ( .V per cent. The grangers ,
after their late advances , were drooping , being
affected to some exlvjit by the fact that whllo

Tlio coalers were heavy and especially HeadIng -

account of thu utifilTor.ible criticisms on Its
annual report , aild 'from ' the evidence that

The Post says : XJiu-siock uiarkct today was
of a decidedly mlvd character , There was
an Incieased Intert'st shown In the trading by
the piofesslonal iDllltpulatots , a continuance
of outside buying a/ill / an elTort on the pal t of
a speculative pool to mm ket KM holdings of
New n .gland. London was not a factor In the
tiadlng , but the fotelmi houses acting as cor
respondents for the Hank of 1'ranco exerted u
depressing Inlluem-o by announcing that they
had arranged for the slilpment of { 3,000,000

HiMls-The.ro aio no doubt several causes
for the .slump In hog values the past two or
three days , but peibaps the principal one
comes from Chicago , where the scaicltv of
stock c.usoneastein loads has almost com
pletely shut off tlio shipping demand , leaving
the trade to the tendei meicy of local slangh-
teieis and speculators. The fic-.li meat and
packing bujeis had things pretty much their
own way today and prices i tiled fully lOo
lower from the start. The good heavy and
butcher weight hogs sold largely at fiom $7.35
to $7.45 , with fair to good light and mixed
loads at fiom $7.25 to$7.35. Veiy common
stufl sold as low as$7.15 and a load of pilmo
butcher hogs sold on the late mai Let for tV.&O.
The o\ticmo close was Nliongon the advance
In piov.slons and fiee buying for the fresh
meat tiado. The pens weie cleaied befoul
noon , the bulk of the hoes selling ut fiom
$7,30 to $7.40 , as against $7.40 lo $7 45 Wed
nesday and $7.35 to J7.45 one week ago. Hop-
lesentatlvo sales :
