TAKES SHARP UPWARD TURN
Market Quickly Recovers from the Havana
War Scare.
TELLER S1VER RESOLUTION IS IGNORED
Wall Slrcol Oolx Ifn SlrrnRlli from
* c SlrlUltiK Improvement In the
if OIL llall-
rondii.
YOUK , Jan. M.-Henry Clown , hend
tt the banking lioupe of Henry Clews Sc
Co. , writes of the situation In Wall street :
During the last week the Wall street mar
ket has taken a sharp upward turn. The
movement has disregarded the Hurry aris
ing from Rending the man-of-war Maine to
Havana and the sensitiveness creattd by
the Teller resolution In the senate. It him
arisen In part from the growing "bull"
feeling on the Block market , but more
ppoclllrally from cer'aln conspicuous facts
Hhowlng the striking Improvement In th *
finances of the railroads duo to the Inst
nix months' Increase In trnlllc , A statement
) ina been made of the earnings of Hock
Island covering the last nlno months showIng -
Ing nn Increase In net firnlhgs. over the
Bnmo period of last year , amounting to
Sl.tVOO.OU ) . The gross earnings of Missouri ,
Kansas & Texas for the last six months arc
reported tit li.ouo.ono , which leaves n sur
plus of J1.1CO.W ) over operating expenses and
Jlxeil charges for dlspoMal at the dlacretlon
of the management. The Vanderbllt stocks
have also shown a large advnnco upon
somewhat Indefinite but apparently well
founded outgivings of now and favorable
arrangements In connection with the New
York Central ami Lake Shore systems. It
Is nlso suited that It Is Intended not only to
merge the West Shore organization with that
of the New York Central but also to bring
the I/ike Shore aclually Into the New York
Central corporation. Also It Is Intimated
that thf scheme under consideration In
volves a union of the I/aUe Shore and the
New York Central under the latter name ,
with nilvnntiigeH t : > stockholders of both
companies. Further , the deal Is understood
to embrace the Incorporation of the Michi
gan Contra ! In the Vanderbllt system by
exchanging Its stock forI per cent de
bentures of the Wrst Shore railroad at a
rate n'it yet stated. Also , the election of
Mr Depcw an a director of the Ontario &
We.v'ern Is construed as Implying a deal
between thnt company nnd the New York
Central ; this , howevi r , Hrks olllclal con
firmation. Hut these reports , coupled with
the reduction In Ilxod charges through the
roennslrm-tlon of the debt of the New York
Central has naturally caused large buying
of the Vnnderbllt stocks and raised an ex-
pectntliin of a permanent Increase In the
dividends of the New York Central , These
facts , coming simultaneously to the mil-face ,
are conwrii"d us H'lowing a process of de
cided recovery In the financial status of
rallrond properties at large. At the mime
time the p ntlnued light constructions of
new line Is viewed ns a favorable factor.
Kor the last live years the construction of
row roads 1 ns averaged barely 1,500 mlle.s
per year , or lo s 'laan 1 per cent , while the
concurrent Increase In population has prob
ably been not lisa than 12 per cent. Now
that business | g reviving In all parts of the
country this Is n fat-tor which must have
n very Imiwrlant bearing upon the earn
ings of the railroads , fir there Is not only
more frelR'.v ! to be carried but relatively
ICSM road to provide for than live years ape
The foregoing are the special can-tea of the
marked revival of Urn tone of the stoi-k
market. In addition , the lmpro\vment liar
received support from the general iurse in
creases of current earnings and from the.
tendency towiinl growing onsf In the money
market. The extraordinary lucrei < v In ile-

CHICAGO , Jan. 20. Wheat today felt the
heavy liquidation thnt was done near the
close of yesterday's scslon , and acted weak
nnd Irregular. Mny closed lic lower. No
nttompt wns mndo to do anything In Janu
ary. Corn nnd oatH were heavy , and de
clined Uo each. Provisions were ilrm ,
without much trading , nnd closed un
changed.
Wheat showed some strength nt the open
ing , principally because Liverpool had re
sponded fnlrly well to yesterday's advance
here. Holders of lines alrpady heavy were
good bidders nt the start , which wns nt
y7U < 8 ! > 7Uc for May , an advance of Hlt'Hc.
A good deal was for sale fit those prices ,
but selling did not depress the price lower
than 97c , and shortly after n general buyIng -
Ing movement set In which carried the price
up to HSc. That advance , however , raised
a short selling brepze of such strength that
In half an hour the advance had melted
away , the decline not stopping until May
was down to tiG-Hc. The heavy dumping
of long lines Into yesterday made many
tr.iders afraid to risk , their nnney In wheat
at prices nbovo n"c , and this fact had a.
good deal to do with augmenting the liqui
dation which carried prices down. Most of
the routine news waa bullish , nrndstreet's
inndp the week's clearances of wheat and
flour from botti coasts 3,110 , < i.l ! bu. , compared
with 'i.KM.OCO bu. the previous week nnd
2r > lliwO bu. the corresponding week of last
year. Chicago received 40 cars of wheat ,
only two of which were contract. Minne
apolis nnd Duluth receipts were 320 cars ,
ngnlnst ; ! "iS' a week ngo and ISO liuit year.
The total receipts at western primary mar
kets were : ! . ' 4o.X ) bu. , against 205,005 the
year before. The day's clearances from
Atlantic porls were ngaln heavy , amount
ing In whrnt and Hour to 095,009 bu. This
latter Itpm Injected temporary strength Into
the market , May recovering to 97Vf97'ic | ,
but It soon fell back again under renewed
offerings , nnd to a lower level than before ,
I'fl'nC being touched before the reaction
stopped. Shortly before the close the mar
ket wns given support , Letter brokers being
credited with good buying nt the bottom
figures , nnd May advanced to ! H5c , where
It closed. July was relatively heavier than
May. It opened at from ECTlc to S7c , and
the latter was the highest It reached nil
day. It sold ns low as SOc nnd closed nt
SCVic , n loss of HP.
Corn was barely sternly nt a sllglit de
cline from yesterday's prices. Tne early
decline In wheat started moderate llquldi- ,
tlon In corn nnd n decline ensued which
was not recovered. Seaboard demand was
light and country offerings were said to be
Increasing. May ranged from 29o to 2 Uc ,
anil closed UP lower nt 29\c.
Oats were Ilrm nt the start , with wood
commission housp buying nnd New York
demand. Prices held well for n time , but
broke later under heavy liquidation by n
Ilrm which has been unloading for several
days. Talk of rate cutting prevented the
market from declining more than It did.
May ranged from l 'iillVjC ' to 2.1Q21c , and
closed ic lower at 24fj24Vic. (
Very little was done In provisions nnd
prices kept within an exceptionally narrow
range. There was moderate selling , showIng -
Ing good prolits , but offerings were readily
absorbed. Trade was principally of a nc.ilp-
Ing nature. At the close May pork was
unchnnped at J10.CO. May lard unchanfp-d
at $1.S7',4 ( & 1.90 and May ribs unchanged nt

CATTLK Thcro was the usual light Sat
urday run today , only TOO head being re
corded as In. The week shows a 1,400 In-
croaro over last -u > ck and of 3,700 over cor
responding week a year ago. Prices nd-
vanettl the first -half of the week on till
kinds of cattle , but a reaction set In on
Thursday and the week closes with prices
pretty generally just where they were a
week ago
Killers did not find many beef cattle on
snip , nor was there anything that could be
called choice. There 'was hardly enough
to call out a full quota of buyers and the
usual Saturday dullness prevailed , but all
useful cattle were sold In good Reason and
prices were practically In the s.imo 'notches '
as yesterday , which meant 1020c lower
than high point touched Wednesday.
Cows and heifers sold freely at full yes
terday's figures and It did not take long to
exhaust the moderate , supply. The market.
like that for steers , wont up the first half
of the week and then lost all of the ad
vance , closing steady to a little lower than
the pre.vlous week's last prices. Bulls and
other lough stock also fluctuated 'belli ways
and closed about like last week. Veal calves
ruled steady.
Stock and feeding cattle advanced rapidly
up Wednesday , which was high day of
the .winter , but It , ' went off again nearly as
rapidly and closes today fully ISftSSc under
high mark and a little lower than hint
week's close except for fancy grades. Only
a moderate amount of business was done
and quite a few are being carried over by
speculators.

for that day , whic was the highest point
touched by the hog market blnce the first week
