May corn closed ?iV4c up and May unu WCAo higher. Provisions closed 2H higher to a shade lower. Scarcity or wheat and a revival of bull eiithJBlasm were, tho Influences that Htarted it booming market. Haturduy had seen u btrong close, and when Liverpool reported u. shortage of stocks und coiiweiiucnt butter prices tnero und Paris also Bent better cubles there; was an excited und higher opening. Offering everywhero wero scanty, 'iho northwest! Jiud liberal receipts, but prices thero Were high.

Cusli No. i red wlntur Bold hero at und at Kansas City ut Dlyaic; May wheat ul St. Louis touched Dlfcc. Trado wnn very lurgo und lurgo quantities lato In tho day wero put on-tno market for prollts. Thesa wero taken up readily, but only ut rapidly Increasing prices. Thero was a tlmo about tho mlddlo of tho session wlven business lulled and tho election of the president of tho board was of. more Interest than tho markot. Outsldo demand kept up well und in splto of bearish Influences of lncreaso of shipments, this amount on pussago and Uio Wsiblo supply, prices took another upward Bpurt. Tho outsiders sCern practically In control of tho market. May, which opened Mjic up at MVi'(ilc, touched filmic toward tho closo In it broad, oxclted market and closed Uio higher ul SIlSc.

Corn started out with a great show of strength, based largely on cables, but tailed to keep within llnu of tho wheat ail Vance. Commission houses sold largely for prollts and retarded the market: Tho open ing was excited, but tho opening trudo was not. Sales to both tho northwest and tho southwest wero bullish Incentives, but stocks lncrensed here, und after ,tho early itiitiirn In nrices tirlees Undiluted narrowly. May opened 'M'vMc to MiiO higher, with Iftl! tllll llo lop llgitrc; me cioso was nrm, iio higher, at 077c. Receipts wero only 111 curs. - , . Outs had a fairly actlvo market, with a considerable show of strength. Trado was general and not specially Important as to te.-itures.

Stock .Market Recover from Its Leth argic State nml Shown Animation. NEW YORK, Jan. fi. Tho stock market was awakened into Home strength and ml mutton today, after efforts to that end hud proved futile for tho greater part of the session, Tho Incident which aroused tho murket was' the declaration of a dividend of 2 per cent on New Jersey Central stock. The declaration Is timed nt tho usual period for the quarterly dividend, which had been running nt the rate of Hi per cent, but tho president of tho Reading company, which corporation now controls the New Jersey Central, deprecated 11 designation of this as u quarterly dividend. Nevertheless, tho street was Inclined to take it that tho stock was to bo considered on an S per cent basis. Reading was itlll relegated, but Tallied' to a point over Satur day's close. Dclewnrc & Hudson became buoyant, rising 6J4 points over Saturday, on conlldcnt hopes that It also was booked for nn early Increuso In dividends. Thero wus u sudden spurt of ;ii points In Mlnno npolls, St, Paul & Sault Ste. Marie, nnd of 4U In Minneapolis & St. Iuls. The mar ket generally recovered smnrtly from Its early depression, but few stocks showed any material gains over Saturday. Amal gamated Copper was an exception and after early weaknesK 011 tho further de cllno In tho price of raw copper In London, roso 1 over Saturduy.

Hobblck Other buyers Totals 3,966 6,313 2,311 CATTLE RecoIptB wero fairly liberal to day for tho first day of tho week and as Chicago was quoted lOiflSc lower conditions wero rather unfavorable to the selling In terests. Buyers sturted In from the first to pound the murket and in most fuses they met with considerublo success. Sell ers did not like to mako tho concessions asked and for that reason, the market was alow and tho morning was well udvunced boforo anything llko a clearanco was mudo. Thero wero quite a few cornfed steers in tho yards this morning, but buyers did not tuko hold very freely und wero bidding generally 10tfl5o lower than at the close of last w,cek. Tho decline seemed to bo greatest on tho wurmed-up cattle, us they udvunced tho most last week. Something choice would probably havo sold ut not far ficin steady prices. It was a slow, druggy market from start to finish and tho decline was rather uneven. Prices on cow stuff also took a tumblo this morning and the market could safely bo quoted 10b'15c lower. A big proportion of tho receipts consisted ot cow stuff, so that buyerr had a good opportunity to pound tho market Tho same us was thu cuso with steers the decline was greatest on tho commoner grades. Rulla woro also rather slow salo today und a llttlu lower nnd the sume was truo 01 ntugs. Veal calves, though, did not show much chango whero the quality was satis factory. Stockers and feeders were In light supply toduy, whllo tho domnnd wus fairly liberal. There seemed to be moro buyers than sell ers, so that the murket was actlvo und steady to strong on everything ut nil de sirable. Quito a few buyers wero In from tho country looking for good cattlo, but thero was not much demand for Common kinds. Representative Bales: REEF STEERS No. 1... 1... Av. IT. No. Av.

Heavy speculative trading In wheat, said to ho tho heaviest In tho history of the St. Louis grain mar ket, toqk placo today on tho Merchants exchange, whero tho Mny option advanced 3 cents ovor Snturday's closo. boforo tho end pf tho session.

From 89V4 cents to 88 cents, tho opening range, May steadily roso 8U4 cents. April went off 2 cents and closed at 91 cents. Thero were several factors responsible for tho cxcltemont nnd advance In prices, Most of tho heavy buying was for country accounts, which In addition to tho fact that tho locnl contingent was bullish on tha crop conditions In the southwest, whero tho wenther Is too drv for the' growing wheat, helped tho advance along.

GOVERNOR NASH DELIVERS HIS MESSAGE Iteeiiiiiuiends n pvr Sjstpin of Tnvii Hon, I.euvliiR ('untitles to It n lie All K.unils for Their t (Mm line. COLUMI1US, Jan. 6. The Ohio teglslntura convened today In biennial sosston. Roth branches elected tho ofllcers nominated nt tho republican caucuses Inst Saturday cvon Ins. At noon the annual message of (lov ernor Nnsh was rend In bdth tho scnnt nnd the house. It wns noted for Its rec ommendations of n now system of taxation, under which tho taxes for tax purposes nro to be raised from corporations, franchises, liquor t radio, etc., nnd all direct taxation for county, municipal or oilier purposes nto to bo left to tho counties. It Is a sys tem of homo ruin In locnl taxes'. Governor Nnsh, In his message, said: During the last two yours much hns been Bald upon the itiesttou as to how corpora tions should bo regulated und us to how evils which arise from tho mlsttso of cor porate franchises may bo minimized or en tirely overcome. Many huvn thought that publicity Is tho only sure romedyi Recuuso they are created by the stato nml possess certlllcalrs bearing the Im press of Its seal, people are led to believe that they mo sufer to do business with nnd urn more entitled lo credit than urn private partnerships nnd Individuals. In very many cases they aro less worthy of conrtdence. They are, authorized by the stato to do business bcrore onn dollar of capital stock Is paid. This Is un unfortunate condition of nffalrs. Tho state, before It gives them corporations Its approval und permltH them to do business, ought to require' that all their capital be paid In money nnd Invested In the business they propose to transact. It ought to make sure of this fuct bv u re port r.ade to some competent olllccr. Wo should go further and require these compa nies to mako annual reports, to be llled with and be Inspected by this olllccr, This report should show, among other things, how much of the capital has been paid and how the money Is Invested, what tho nssots are, tho umount of liabilities and tho names of the stockholders. In fact, thero should be such u record of every corpora tion, thnt the people may know ut all times whether It Is wot thy of credit nnd conn dencc. I believe with somo such regula tions Ohio corporations would bo placed upon a Mdld llnanclal basis. Tho publicity which would bo given by such action could not, by any possibility, Injure a really wortny und (tunnel corpora tion. It would ptotcct tho public ugiilnst unworthy nnd lulling corporations. As mutters now stnnd tho secretary of stuto knows nothing about a corporation after It leuves his nlllco with n charter from thn ff'lte:i' Ci,u"t oven tell how many of tho 40,000 or moro corporations rhurtered by the stato during tho lust llfty years nro deud now, nor how many aro still llv ng. -I he stuto creates tho thing, author izes it to do business, sends It out In tha cold und kr.ows nothing more about it for ever. It Is high tlmo that a chungo should bo made. A GREAT OPPORTUNITY I'or Siniill nml Lnritn liiionlnrs to l'lupp Their .Money In n Nnf.
