that tha contract could bo curiod out by I

The market opened rather slow , both spec

would not have to pay higher than on Satur
day , and fhaped their notions accordingly , but
them was an outsldu and miscellaneous demand
of sufficient strength and activity to toke the
offerings at strong 5@10advance. Telegrams
were tent all over the country advising ehip-
ments for the rest of the week. Senders be
lieving that the present strength would
continue. The hipheat price was § I75@4SO

through about all of to-day's speculative mar
kets there was a pronounced fo-licg of uncer
tainty which at times bordered closely on
woakn a . Th.o bulk of it camofrom tlio unect-
tled conditions prevailing at eastern financial
center ? , with the natural reEul of bringing out
more local sellers than buyers and to a slight
extent depressing values. In a general way
speculative business was greatly curtailed.
WHEAT.
WPS fairly firm nt the opening ; , principally on
light roeipta anc5 prospects of decreased arri

freight blockades. The advnnco ever tbo
opening prices was onlymoiuMarcli , sll pther ,
options'beirif ; at tluir bfBtttit op'ening quota
tions. The tituation on Wall street was such
as to bring out frcqsellers and run tbo May
options down gc , but from this point there
was a recovery to jjc under early quotations ,
the bulk of it taking place between 12 and 1
o'clock , on talk of for.ign complications. In
a general way , however , the feeling was boar-
inn. No. 2 spring sold early at79c. but cased
off to 78fc at dose.
COBN.
rhowcd rather moro than usual atroneth at the 1
opening , with prices from J to io over Satur
day's closing. Early purchases by loading
local booses stiffened the market perceptibly
and induced a little line of tailors. It wts re
marked that corn probably had inoto friends
to-day than nny ther trrain on the floor. No.
2 cash wa rmoffd at 3S c early , tin cloicd
nominally at 3Sc.
OATS
were steady and firm at the opening at Jo bet-
er than the closing figures , but the subsequent
range was irregulaily downward within go ,
the close at 1 o'clock being ab jut steady at de

were generally higher at the opening , the in
crease being 5c in pork and 'SJo in lard and
ribs , with the exception of here and there a >
sale. Shortly after business opened at 2&c
over first quotations early figurci were the
highest for the day. The irregular downward
range aggregated lOaiu pork , 7io in lard and
Be iu slKrt ribs , while the prevailing tone was
one of moro or loss hoavino'i. Cash pork was
quoted at § 12 10 hrd ? G 774 , and ribs ? G 12J ,
though bueiuesa in this line wss so light that
prices wera httlo better than nominal. The
close was easy.
The Clawsoii l'oIjK * > y Case.
WASHINGTON , January 19. The supreme
court of the United States entered a decision
in the polygamy caaa of Hudger Glawson , ap
pellant , vs. the United States , cppcal from
the supreme court of Utah , Clawson , appel
lant , having boon found guilty by the jury
of the crlmo of polygamy and cohabitation ,
was duly sentenced to pay a fine of 8600 and
imprisonment for four year ? . Ho appealed to
the superior court of tlio territory , and pend
ing judgment on such appeal , applied to the
court tin sentenced him for a relcatu upon
suitable btil. The judge denied thu applica
tion , on the ground that the defendant ought
not to be admitted to bail after conviction and
sentence , unless Homo extraordinary reason *
were shown , and no such reasons have been
given. Clawsoii thereupon sued uui n writ oC
habeas corpus in the supieme court of thu
territory , and prayed for a release )
upon the ground that the court below had un
lawfully refused to admit him to ball. Tha
supreme court overruled thn petition and re
manded thn prisoner to the custody of Ilio
marshal , whoronpon 1'u ' took the piiaont ap
peal to tbU court. This court holds tint in
asmuch as the judgment of thu third judicial
court in which the prisoner was tried did not
ImpCHe upon him a fine only but ulio imprts-
oumint , his admicelon tn ball , pending the
appeal from that judgment , is distinctly com
mitted by the laws of Utah to the discretion
of the court or the judge to whom the appli
cation for bail may be made. The supreme
court of Utati was therefore right in overrul
ing tbo petition and remanding the prisoner
to the custody of the marshal , and Its judg
ment is affirmed.
