CHICAaO, Jan. 2S. Tho grain pits took
Ihclr cues from oats today, which Btltl hnd
tho center of Interest. When thoy opened
Jlrm all tho other pits bracel up, but when
thoy dropped 2o ngaln on renowod selling
wheat nnd com followol after. Tho small
ntsa of trndo and tho nbsenco of other
potent Influences stendled tho pits toward
tho closo nnd Mny wheat nnd May corn
closed unchanged from yesterday. May
oata lost Vic nnd provisions closed 6c to
X2Vo lower
oats wcr'o nervous and fluctuations wero
wide nearly nil tho Reunion. May options
tartcd a shade higher on llvo offerings and
under tho Inflitenco of nn apparent ob
Bonco of tho tcrrlblo pressure- that near y
brought collapso yesterday. May ovon sold
up to 42?4c but then country holders turned
liberal Bollcre. Many longH with small
margins wero pressed by calls for heavier
margins at tho opening und some of theso
woro Bliakon out. This brought a break for
May down toJOa. Support then developed.
Thoro wns also considerable covering on
tho breaks. and putting out of Bhort lines
nn tho Blight advances. May soon reacted
to 42c and closed eay, Wo down at UfttMJc.
Receipts wero 131 cars. Gossip on tho
board today had It that yesterday's furoro
wan duo to tho shaking out of a prominent
Kansas City operator, who was long about
J.GOO.000 bushols of May oats. After Satur
day's break of lo Uio commission houses
that worn handling this man's lino began
calling for margins. .Thero was no re
Hponso and tho llrst Uilng at yesterday s
opening they begnn nolllng out tho lino to
protect themselves. This brought on tho
fear of Ilvtten soiling and tho break rp
miltod. Tho Kansas City operator Is Bald
not to bo In any danger of failure, having
rondo good all his homo bills.
Wheat had a fairly Kood business Thoro
was llttlo In tho wuy of nows of Import
unco and tho moderato ups nnd downs of
tho market wero largely duo to local con
ditions. Cables wero slightly bettor and
th. world'H vlslblo supply showed a good
decrease. There was rain In tho southwest
which gav courago to tho bears, but It
was tho oats dip that brought tho principal
fluctuations In this pit. Tho comparative
firmness of tho coarse grains at tho open
ing hiul helped wheat materially. May
opened unchanged to 14c Jilghor at iiMfl
77THO and ovun touched 78c. Naturally on
this strength wheat was quick to respond
to anything that would Influcnco a chnngo
In coarso grains. When corn and oats
began to dip then early buyers got dis
couraged nnd cold. This, with somo fur
ther liquidation and a fair amount of short
Helling, sent May down to W'MnSic This
dip was short-lived, and whon tho coarso
grains rallied May wheat advanced ngaln
to a steady closo, unchanged at 77c. Local
receipts wero 4-1 cars, nono of contract
grade. Minneapolis and Duluth reported
428 rammiiklnir a total for tho threo nolnts
of 472, against 40S last week and 321 a year
ago. primary receipts wero vu.uw nunneis.
I'ninnnrnd with 393.000 bushels last year.
Seaboard clearances In wheat and flour
equaled 276,000 bushels. Tho world's vlslblo
supply (lccrcaseu i.uk.uw imsncin. na neu.
board reported only 10 loads taken for ship
ments. ....
Horn started out stronir. broko sharnly
with oats, but later showed a tendency to
bold up well. The pit was surprised that
only a comparatively small number of
top-loss orders wero uncovered at 00c, as
If It was generally made at this llguro tho
market would run into neavy liquidation.
Instead thoro was a fair ln-ostmcnt do
tnnnil from llin southwest. Somo lmnor-
tnnt short coverlne took place and tho
market developed a strong undertono.' In a
snort timo May, wnicn nau uroppeu irom
61Ho to t"i9c, was back at Clc. Tho closo
was steady, unchnngod at COHtfTGOftc Re
ceipts wero Jti cars.
Provisions wero fairly active and some
what norvotls. Thero wns a considerable
linn of long pork liquidation and tho tern-
fiorary weakness of grains brought a slump
n pork, nut tho market waB much
Htromrer In fcellnir than yostorday and re
covered a good portion of tho loss. Hog
receipts woro light at tho yards, but tho
market thoro was rather slow. May pork
Hold between 115.90 and S15.G214. and closed
1214c down nt S15.67H. May lard closed 6(8

MOVEMENTS IX STOCKS AND 1IONDS.
i'nlr Deinnnil Due- to FnvornblJ At-
llttulc of TrndliiK In Grnlns.
NEW YORK, Jan. 2S.-A successful turn
was mado ngnlnst tho shorts today In the
stock market. How far tho day's demand
for stocks represented now buying from
ontsldo sources can only' bo conjectured.
Conditions which wero mndo the ground
for selling yesterday remained unaltered
today, without nffcctlng the strong tend
ency toward recovery. Tho weakness In
tho grain markets, which yesterday was
mado the basis of rumors of llnanclnl trou
bles, wns turned to a bull argument today,
as showing good conditions tor tho winter
wheat crop. Tho formation by tho United
Mlno Workers' union of flat demands for
higher wages which depressed tho conlers
yostorday was Ignored today. Tho report
of December not earnings of tho Erlo nnd
Reading systems wero equally Ignored.
Tho decreaso'ln net earnings for tho Erie
for tho month was $118,163 nnd tho decrease
In tho surplus of the Reading for tho samo
period was $218,218. Tho Southern railway
also reported a decrcaso In net earnings
in December of $88,700. All of theso stocks
were nultn conspicuous for activity and
strength. It Is Raid that part of tho selling
of tho coalers had been In anticipation of
this showing, nnd that today's buying wus
short covering. Theso changes of senti
ment Indicate tho professional character of
the trading. Tho most Important Influence
In the ndvanco was tho strong recovery of
threo more points' In Amalgamated Copper.
The dealings In this stock wero almost
twice ns great as those In any other ono
stock. Tho further ndvanco In raw. copper
and the heavy liuvlntr in London wns taken
to lndlcato that largo requirements havo
neon lert uncovered, waning ior mo prico
to touch bottom. Tho ndvanco In Amalga
mated wns taken by speculators to lndlcato
a scuumoni in tavor or an advance. ry tne
Stundnrd Oil party, which bus long been
supposeu to ravor quieiuiie in speculation,
Coupled with a published utterance of J. P,
Mnrirun. expressing confidence In th main
tenance, of tho country's prosperity, tho
effect wns to Impress speculators with the
Idea that tho great financial powers wero
ngaln in nccoru in ravoring ingncr prices
for stocks. Tho upward movement broad
ened nnd gained force up to the close,
which wus nt about tho best and strong,
Tho reported agreement maintain rates
among western railroads and meat pack
ers was a strcnsthonlnt; lnducnco. The
speculation In sugar was based on tho
expectation of an advance In the production
and had an lmnortnnt sympathetic effect.
As an incident of tho ndvanco there was n
renewal of many old rumors or consolida
tions nnd absorbttons Involving tho local
tractions, tha Vnnderbllts. Chlcaeo & East
ern Illinois nnd Loulsvlllo & Nashville, tho
Chicago, inuinuapoiis & Ijouisviuo anu tne
Evansvlllo & Tcrro Haute, and many others
thnr have nrevlouslv been In Circulation.
The statement In tho British House of
Commons that n note from tho Dutch gov
rrnment la under consideration, nrcsum
ably bearing upon overtures for pence from
tho Boers, helped tho closing .strength In
he margot.
Tlio boml market was strong and Indl

LONDON. Jnn. 28. Tho revenuo collec
tions today denudd the market of sup
plies of money, tho government disburse
ments were small 'and tho Bank of Eng
land was apparently borrowing. These
conditions, with the state of foreign ex
change, strengthened discounts In spite of
the continental Inquiry for bills. The price
of tho new cojnty council loan was fixed
at 98. Beyond tho carry-over tho Stock ex
change transactions wero narrow. Kaffirs
wero tno liveliest section, iney nau a
hardening tendency and considerable busi
ness wus done on those securities. Specu
lators wero encouraged with the easo with
which tho account was adjusted. Consols
wero fairly steady, considering tho large
number of attractive securities giving a
blither yield that are coming out. Homo
rails hardened. Americans opened dull, but
afterward hardoned. Atcnisons nnd union
Pacifies wero dull. Americans were gen
erally inanlmato and closed below the best
prices of the day. Rio tlntos roeo on Paris

CATTLE There was a light run of cattlo
hero today for a Tuesday, which makes
the supply for the two days this week
considerably short of tho samo days of
laat week, as will be seen from tho table
of receipts given above. For that reason
packers were all hungry for both steers
and cows and sellers had no trouble In
getting steady to strong prices for all de
sirable grades of killers. The market was
unusually active from start to llnlsh and
everything was sold In good season. 1
There were only a few cars of beef steers
Included In the receipts today, rand, as buy
ers were out early nnd bid good, steady to
strong prices for everything In the yards,
It was not long before tho pens wero
cleared. Some of tho cattlo were of good
quality, but there were s few unswerlng
to mat acsenpuon inui uuyera nuu iu luu
tent themselves with the commoner grades
and short fed cattle.
The cow maritet, 11 anything, wns moro
netlvn than the steer trade. Buyers rode
fast and bid strong prices on anything at
all desirable. Even tho medium kinds and
ennners sold freely nt fully as good prices
as were paid yesterday. It wns the most
activo muriici an aruuuu miij. hub ui-uu
seen in somo 111110 time.
Buns, veal cnives anu sings aiso soiu
readily at steady to strong prices.
Thtr wnrn nnlv a few Btockers nndfeed-
ers In the yards this morning and anything
showing weight and quality was In good
demand at steady prices. The light und
common cattle, however, wero nugiecteu,
tho same ns usual, and did not show much
of any chango In price. Stock cows und
heifers of good quality also commanded
strong prices, ns the demnnd was fully
equal to tllo supply. Representative sales:
