CHICAGO , Feb. l.-Contlnucd liquidation
by speculative longa today weakened wheat.
Tlio decline WHB checked by some export
business at the seaboard and at the close
May wheat had recovered ult but 'Jo ot an
tarly slump of % 'iilc. Corn and oats freed
themselves from their entangling alliance
with wheat nnd left off with an Improve
ment of 54c In corn und > , i03ic In oats.
I'ork advanced GB7',4c , lard 2tc nnd ribs 5c.
Comparative firmness at Liverpool , con
sidering the sharp slump hero jcsterdny.
Kavo wheat n good start. The weather
throughout the winter wheat country wai
recognized as being Vfry tr > lng on the
plant and an the fluids were sild to be for
the most part bare of snow , some appre
hension under such conditions was un
avoidable. May opened "MfVJc higher at
74 i17ioc , and an thcro was a disposition on
thn part of several shortH to cover the
price touched "S'.Jc. Chicago received SS
carloads , an ngnln&t 11 for the same clnv
last year. Minneapolis nnd Dulnth got 404
cars , compared with 261 cars for the cor
responding day a year ago.
I'rlninry western market
receipts aggro-
prated 634,000 bu , whereas 378,000 bu. was
the total the previous year. Atlantic port
clearance * of wheat nnd flour for the < lay.
exclusive of Newport NOVVH , wan equal to
670,000 bu. The early signs of recuperation
In the local market disappeared under thn
discouraging weakness of the New York
market.
Whllo at Chicago the prlcn of May wheat
showed a % o advance of yesterday's closing
price , Now York did not recover more than
"Jo. AH the licnvv shorts who had .sold
May from aroud 73c showed no Inclln itlon
to cover on the early advance the mirket
was left without support as soon an a
few of the more modcrato operators had
tnkan what profit the Improvement In
prlcej ) gave them. The holders of Ions
wheat loaded down the market with offer
ings and May declined quickly to 7TCc.
Tlmt figure brought May within the limit
of some orders for export and this caused
enough buying to send May up to 74a4W
7l'/i ' < r , where It closed.
Modcrato receipts , light offerings nnd a
good shipping demand strengthened corn.
Receipts vvoro only 434 cars , und New York
reported u moderuto demand for export.
May opened 'MlVic higher ut 37r 4i17'ic ( ; , ad
vanced to 37c , sagged off to Ti sc ° n some
profit-taking , then rallied to 37c , the
closing figure.
Oats were Blow , but strong. Receipts
were 103 cars and n largo movement Is
anticipated on account of the reduced rates
which went into effect Monday. May be
gan US > ' , io better nt 2Sc , reurhed 2S'4e , sold
down to 27c , then recovcud to 2S1&o , at
the cloac. ,
Provisions started tlrm. but became weak
tinder the Influence of the forenoon break
In wheat. Later , however , the market re
covered again on the reported healthy tone
of the cash trade. Some of the early w oak-
ness was ascribed to a large Increase In
Blocks nt Liverpool. Mav pork opened 2U
ffF.o higher at $1037V < illO 10 ; rose to $10.42' * .
sold off to $10.27'i ' , then tlrmrd up to $10.40
010 42 % at the close. The range In lard and
ribs was narrow.
Estimated receipts for Thursday : Wheat ,
87 cars ; corn , C20 cars ; oats. 150 cars ; hogs.
31.000 head.

vnnrex with .Mixed ClinitKcii ,
NE\V YOHK. Feb. l.-Many specialties
made sharp advances today , whllo the
changes in the railways' * ere rather mixed.
Interest centered largely In low-priced
stocks , ns Is shown by the dealings of
6GOOO shares In Texas Pacific and 40,000 In
Denver & . Rio Grande , which made extreme
advances of 2 points each. Atchtson pre
ferred , which of late has been a bear
target , made an advance of about 2 points
on transactions of 100 000 shares. Among
the other strong stocks were Cleveland ,
Cincinnati , Chicago .t St. Louis , DCS Molne
fc Fort Dodge , Manhattan , 'Mobile & Ohio ,
Like Eric & Western and Twin City Rapid
Transit , which made average- advances of
2 points aside from the last mentioned ,
which rose G points nnd lost half of It.
New York. New Haven & Hartford ad
vanced 6 polntn and New York Air Brake ,
after an Initial break of 4 points , rose 9.
Ixindon was a seller on balance , of about
To.OoO hares. but was a purchaser In the
Into dealings The market locally opened
lower under bear pressure and commission
house realizations. The reaction reached a
point In only a few shares , which embraced
some of the specialties , Louisville , New
Jersey Central and Plttsburg. Cincinnati ,
Chicago & St. Louis. The decline In stand
ard stocks was ch cked after fractional
recessions on the nppearanco of buying
orders which caused a renewed advance
and standard stocks rallied above yester
day's close.
Sugar was attacked , thus checking the
rise elsewhere. Finally , after feverish
fluctuations , Sugar ended with a small
gain. The reported gold developments In
Colorado lent strength to Denver & . Rio
Grande and Ita semi-annual statement woo
also a supporting factor. Manhattan's rlbe
was probably on an advance Information
of the provisions for a loan for electrical
equipment. The bears as usual , sought to
bring about a reaction In the last hour , but
the offerings were well taken and as soon
as pressuie was removed the market closed
firm. The St. Paul weekly statement of
gross earnings , which often , according as
thov are more or less favorable , have a
distinct effect upon the market , did not
appear today , and It was said that It
would be given out Saturday night.
The bond market maintained a. very
strong tone throughout , with exceptional
strength In Texas & . Pacific seconds. New-
Haven debentures and Wisconsin Central
first. The latter rose 7 ; points to GStf. but
receded to 65Vi. Total sales , $0,325,000
United Stntea new 4c , coupon , advanced ' &
per cent In the bid price.
The- Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says : Business was re
duced here to day and consols were dull
on tlio news that a Chinese 5 per cent loin
of 1,300000 , secured by the northern rail
ways , will probably be issued at the end
of the wick. The American market Is
much shrunk. Dealers who came over
from Africans nre returning thither , and
'nervous bulls sold all morning , but New
York bought Denver issues and Atchlson.
Chesapeake and Union Pacific , and the
close was at the top. In the street , however -
over , business was restricted. I can con
firm the. report of the early appearance of
the Central Paclllc reorganization scheme.
The assessment will be $10 In exchange
for 21 per cent of fours , or 20 of lives of
Southern Pacific bonds. Tlntos touched
33 % and closed at 39 on a large bear fail
ure In Paris. There was a rise In copper
of 13a a ton I hear from a good source
that tl'e year's output of Rio tlntos has been
taken at 7T to 75. Anaconda mine statistics

LONDON. Feb. 1. The first series of the
1S99 wool auction sales closed today.
Throughout the series the tone was very
strong. U Is estimated that the home tiade
secured S3.000 bales , thu continent 82,000 and
, America C.OOO. Nineteen thousand bales
I were carried over. Tha opening was active
.at un advance of from 5 to 7 per cent.
Subsequently merinos were In particular
request , cspocialb medium and inferior
combing bv tlio home trading and the con
tinent. Prices soon hardened \ ' > per cent
and the advance was maintained until thu
end. The feature of the hales was the
continual spirited continental demand for
line locks and pieces , which wore about
the dearest In tin * market throughout.
American requirements were limited , the
demand for well-grown and medium greasy
crossbrcds cauilni ; a rise of 10 to 15 per
cant above the December overage. During
Uie last day or two operations slackened ,
but the eager competition was again evi
dent today. The liner qualities , In sym
pathy nlth merinos , were strongly sup
ported , principally by the home trade.
Coarse and shabby , also scoured ullps im
proved slightly early In the session , but
later there was a slackening in the de
mand , Wlthdiawals were more frequent.
Capo of Good Hope and Natal wan In
limited supply. There was a good request
for these grades and medium scoureds ,
Ilec-ce washed advanced 7'fe per cent and

row : The wool market has on the whole
bhown some Improvement during the last
week. Prices as .vet have shonn no ad
vance , it la true , but a firmer feeling pre
vails nnd there has been more business
transacted. The eu o of Improvement was
the report of an advance In the price of
heavyweights by a leading worsted mill and
tlio possibility that a further advuncn would
bo established on the goods next week. The
bullish feeling Is Intensified also by the
course of the London sales , at which prices
I'rve advanced about 20 per cent on some
lines of tross-brc'ds and fully 5 per cent on
merinos. .Tho month of January was u ills-

CATTLE Today's receipts of cattle num
bered 101 cars , ns against 1JO yesterday ,
Hnetj-four a week ago and ninety-two two
weeks ago. Out ot thu number here there
were eighteen loads consigned direct to
packers which were not offered on the
market. The inntket as a whole was in
very satisfactory condition and without ex
ception sellers were well pleased with re
sults.
The market opened early on cornfed steers
with local packers and shippers well rep
resented , and as the offerings were not ex
cessive and not up to the full requirements
or buyer ? , the market was reasonably
active and just about steady with lust
week. As a general thing , sellers were
summing up the trade as u good , ste'ady and
active market. Soma pretty good cattle
sold up to J5.20 , as will bo noted from the
sales given below.
Cows and heifers were In good demand ,
and , as was the case with steers , the
market was active .at Justj about steady
prltres. 'In' fact there -was. no quotable
change In the market In cJther direction.
The same was true of bulls , stags , etc.
Veal calves were In good demand , pretty
fair veals going at $6.
Not many stockers or feeders were to bo
found Jn tlrtt hands today , and as there
was a Very fair demand for peed cattle the
offjrlngs for the most part met with a very
satisfactory reception and everything was
cleaned up In good season. The prices paid
were steady. There was some little country
buvlng today and speculators were pretty
vvjll cleaned out before the close of the
market , so that thei trade may be summed
up as being In a very healthy condition.

142 a week ago and 118 three weeks ago. I
was thn lightest run In some tlmo for
Wednesday , the hea\y fulling off In arrival
being due apparently to the severe col
weather , which would have a natural tenil
ency to keep the hogs lit home. Btjslde
being comparatively few In numbers , Hi
buyers were complaining that thn rjuallt
was the poorest of liny day In n long tlnu
the hogs running largely to common Ugh
mid light mixed nnd tiauhy stuff.
From all felling points came reports c

Light nnd mixed loads brought $3 60113 63. ns

loads brought $365 , with a $1.70 top..whllo
the same kind went at $3,70 vosterday , with
a $3.75 top.
The market was fairly active nt the de
cline , bujers evidently wanting the hogs ,
and the most of the offerings changed Immls
In good ( * eaon. U will be noted from table
ot average prices nt head of column that
the hoffs sold Just about lOc lower thun on
Mondiiv , or about where they did one week
ago , Two weeks ago today the hogs sold
on an Average nt $3 51. The month of Teh-
ruarv opens with the market higher than
It was one or two years ngo. The- feeling
at the extreme clo e was n llttlo better
than It wa earlier. Representative sales :

SHEEP Theio was a pretty fair run of
sheep nnd lambs again today , but there
were none too many to meet the roqulie-
mcnts of local packers. The dmnntl being
good , the market was naturally active and
practically everything in the pens olil In
good season. The prlres paid were good
and strong ns compared with vesterday.
As u ttllo sellers described the tn.-lo as .t
good , strong , active market Advices troin
the east worn by no means encouraging ,
Chicago reporting a slow maiket , but that
fact did not appear to have any Inlluencc
hero. As high as4 90 was paid for western
lambs and a bunch of w others nnd yearlings
bt ought $4.15 , showing that good stuff will
tell well.
