CHICAGO, Jan. 13-Actlve support
maintained firmness In wheat today in the
lace ot a number or depressing factois.
i ne close wn strong, with May a Shane
higher than yesterday a final figure. May
com gained VaVic, oats i aim provision.
from i Vic to inc.
The pit was generally bearish In wheat
ana sold on the slightest provocation. As
an offset to thla selling pressure, tlie leader
of the lonKs waa an ac tive buyer through
out the session. Hefore the opening Liver
pool cables showed losses, while British
consols were higher. The interence was
that peace between Ruscla anrl Japan was
Ktlll within the possibilities.' An a result of
these Influences the market here opened
easlert with May VM(c to 4?j'c lower, at
MtiftiC Commission houses were lllHjral
sellers and offerings were taken largely by
the prominent bull Interest. Iiunng the.
' tlrst hour the demand from thla sourca
carried May up to Mm.flH.Vtf, but when
tho buying lessened the price slowly annuel
until WiVio waa reached. Liberal rece.pis
in the southwest, aa well aa at all pilmary
Jioints, were a fartor lit bringing out purt
of the rolling .order, , .
There waa good buying on the decline
by a number of rommlaalon house and
elevator Interests. The maiket responded
to the Improved demand and developed
mose flrmneaa. Within the Inst few min
utes of trading the flrmneaa changed to
decided strength on renewed purchase by
the big long. Closing priors were at about
the top llgures, wllh May at X7V. Clear
ancea of wheat and flour were enuul to
Ztf.HUO bushels. Primary rccelpta were 851,
6o0 bushels,- against 623,300 bushels a year
ago. Minneapolis Duluth nnd t'hlrago re-
rted receipts of 650 cars, compared with
Jfi cars last week and 2xs ears a year ago.
The dominating Influence In corn was the
small receipts, poor grading and good caali
demand. There waa a g'"d general d
mand of the entire day, with commission
houses leading In the buying. The relllng
was mainly by scalpers. The market was
a little easier at the start In sympathy
with wheat but prices soon firmed up and
held firm until the close.. Alter opening
Unchanged to Vn lower at 47',il4714r'. May
old between 474&4Kc, closing at i',,'uic.
Local receipts were 283 cars, wfth none of
contract grade.
Oate were Independently strong, espe
cially the May delivery. Commission houses
were the beat buyers, with the selling scat
tered. The opening was steady, with May
unchanged to a shade lower, at 8!mii.Ho
, to 3Do. After selling up to 40Vo May
Hosed strong at that llgure. Local re-
fipts were US cars.
xht receipts of hogs, an advance In
prices st the yards and liberal shipments
Of products maintained a strong tone In
provisions, trices were mgner at tne atari
tinder the" leadership of pork and the open
ing gains were held throughout the day.
Commlsnlon houses were the best buyers
although packers were reported to be sup
porting the market to a considerable ex
tent. Cloning prices were near the top,
with May pork up VW2f)c, at fl3.2lfn3.2JH.

SEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Starvation rra Eemlt of tha Uowrtainty
in th Far Eat.
FOREIGN SECURITIES PRACTICALLY IDLE
llaadfal of Minor Blocks Moved
Widely, with Rather Palpable
Evidences of Maalpnlntlon to
Across! for the Condition.
NEW lORK, Jan. 13. -The Inert stock
market today seemed to reflect no devel
opment Ir. affairs, but the stagnation of
the market was in Itself ,a result of the
uncertainly over the far eastern crisis.
The same e fleet was caused in the various
commodity markets, which have shown
tbemaeives under the Influence of the war
hews, and the foreign securities markets
alao were practically idle today. These
markets were evidently walling, all of
them, for some more definite snaplng of
the future of events. The constantly
varying rumors of each day regarding lie
chances of peace or war seemed today to
have lost their power for inducing active
operations in the markets. 'i'he serious
possibilities involved in the situation are
abundantly realized and the conclusion
seems to have been reached to shut .down
and await the outcome.
In the absence of speculative "demand
for loans, the offering of call money be
came so large today us to suggest an
early stage of plethora in the money sup
ply. Funds still continue to pile up at
this center by receipts of currency from
the Interior and by sorrje belated arrivals
of forelKn gold. The government llscal
operations at the siibtreasury are also
yielding larger returns to the money mar
ket, by reason of large penlon payments,.
Interest payments and payments on ac
count of yearly mall contracts. This abun
dance of money resources still signally
fails to attract any demand for securities,
either of stocks or bonds.
A handful of minor stm-ks moved widely
today with rather palpable evidences of
manipulation to account for the move
ments. At the same lime there was a con
spicuous falling off In the rate of activity
of the few prominent stocks, which have
made up the bulk of the dealings In the
recent dull markets, such as Amalgamated
Copper, Pennsylvania and United States
Steel preferred. The uncertainties of the
war outlook are considered sulllclent ex
planation of the Indisposition to trade, but
Influence Is exerted 'also by the large
amount of railroad borrowings hanging
over the market and which are com-'
petently estimated at above noo.noo.oco.
Tho news of a f26,o00,on0 loan to the
Pittsburg Coal company also suggests the
Industrials n possible additional borrowers
on a considerable scale. The possibility of
an unheralded decision being unexpectedly
hnnded down In the Northern Securities
case Is another factor maklna; for con
servatism in speculative commitments.
Prices todav gravitated to a lower level
from sheer .Inanition and the closing wtis
on the down grade.
Bonds m'jveii narrowly and Irregularly.

CATTLE There waa a more moderate
run of, cattle reported today tand with a
liberal demand the market ruled more act
ive and stronger than yesterday. In lact,
a good many sales showed an advance of
Ciginc. Owing to tha activity and the mod
erate, offerings an early clearance was
made.
The market for pom-red steers could beat
be described by calling It active and strong 1
with sain aa much as SiTlOo higher. The I
quality or tne buiK 01 tne onerlnga, though,
waa rather inferior and aj a result the
market on paper does not look particularly
good. Packers, though, had to have MOtne
cattle and owing to the scarcity) of good
stuff paid strong prices tor even the In
ferior grade. .
Thero was alio an active demand for
cews and helfere and the market could
safely be quoted strong. There were a Jew
on sale of extra good quality, but the bulk
of them were Just fair. Trading, though,
waa quite brisk, particularly early in the
morning, and all the early arrivals were
soon disposed of. There was perhaps not
quite so much life to the late market, but
still the prices paid were not so much dif
ferent. Bulls, veal calves and stags did not show
enough change to be -worthy of mention.
There were Just a few stockers and feed
ers on sale and, as the demand from the
country yesterday waa unusually good for
the time of year, speculators were all
anxious for supplies and the market ruled
active and strong nn anything at all
decent. Representative1 sales: - "

BHEE1' Receipts of sheep were not ex
cessive this morning and the market did
not show much change from yesterday.
Ruyers, thcuRh, did not take hold with as
much life as usual, and trading was a
little slow with prices rather uneven. Pack
ers evidently wanted to buy their supplies
a little lower, and. In the case of the leas
desirable grades they occasionally suc
ceeded. On the other hand, some of the
better bunches sold a shade stronger. This
being tha situation, the market could be
quoted generally steady, but a HttPn Ir
regular and not very r.etlve, A good'clear
ance was made, however, at a reasonably
early, hour.
There were very few feeders on sale,
but those that did arrive changed hands
Very readily at fully steady prices.

TO CREATE GOVERNING CLASS

Governor of Maryland Saya attt
Wttats tarhv l,elslatloa
ANNAPOLIS. Jan. 13.-Edward Warfleld
was Inaugurated as governor of Mary
land today and despite the Inclement
weather there was a vast multitude pres
ent from all parts of the state to partici
pate' In the ceremonies.
In Jils Inaugural 'address Governor War
field said on the subject .of limiting the
surrrage to intelligent rltlsens:
The people demand that the -state shall
be governed by those citlxens who, he
oatisn of their Intelligence, their heredity
and" Interest In the material welfare ff
the commonwealth are beat fitted to)
properly, patriotically and wisely exercise
the high duties of clttxenshlp.
This result can only be attained bv an
amendment to the constitution fixing a
higher standard of qualification for tha
exercise of the elective franchise.
I believe that nn amendment to the ccn
stlltition upon the lines which 1 have Bug.
gested, expressed In clear, dillnlle, slmplit
terms, should be submitted to the people
of Maryland.
