Jan. 10. f Special Telegram to
Tut : Ur.r. 1-Tlio wheat market ranged dull
with nn undertone of weakness to-day. Tlio
telegraphic communication withtlic east was
badly Interfered with on account of the
htonn of yesterday nnd last night , nnd very
few dispatches from Now York nml other
seaboard point * were received before noon.
Thin feet contribiitrd largely to the dullness
nnd goes u long ways tj tllsiirovo of the oft-
repeated statement of "No outsldo business. "
M there is no oulsldo wislnofis thu breaking
down of the wlros would Imvo no effect. The
local trading crowd hnd strong leaning to
the boar side of the deal this morning , and
HIP scalpers carried the market down from
$1 0\ | to II.Ul for May nt the opening to
tl.OI-V l. < H ! ( . AKl.OI'i Ilutehllisonturned
up as ii big biiicr , and an advance to ? l ( J. " >
followed. I'leutj of wheat was offered for
tnjo at Jl.Oj , though but little was sold , and
up lo Ii)0 ! : ) o'clock tbo price sxvutig backward
and forwaid within nc ; raiigo , fi.04Jbeing
II-
- the popular stopping place. The lust three-
( | iiarter& of an hour witnessed n sharp bicaU.
The market slowly gave wny to II.1
where. the | > og wns supposed to
1)0 ) stuck , but a little pressure disclosed the
fact that the support hud been withdrawn ,
nnd there was n rush to soil. It took only
few minutes to knock the prlco off toSl.OI ,
and the descent from fl.l-l ( to fl.O.'l wi'
rapid The market was loosened up to u sur
prising extent , and moro trade was com
pressed into the last thirty minutes than had
been douo in tlio precciting three hours ,
Jones & Kennott started the break , aud the
bear raiders nnd longs ran a race for the ro.
niamder of the session to see who could sell
the most wheat In the shortest period of
tlmo. During the llnal llvu or ten minutes a
llrmor fouling was noticeable , nmljtlicro was a
tri'ctional recovery , the close being 'fc from
the bottom. On the prccipitious break
Hiitchlnson bought "a slew of wheat , " as n
.man expressed it , who was standing near
him and heard his orders , Tlio slump oc
curred so suddenly that the crowd had no
tlmo to ask for an explanation until it was
all over. There was evidence going to show
that It was the icsult of a determined raid ,
and it Boomed to have been helped
by the circulation of some sort of a
tip on the forthcoming "Jlnal government
estimate. " A broker who claims to havotho
monopoly of thesntlps wns surrounded by n
jubilant little throng utter the tan of the
bell , but ho stoutly maintained to a reporter
that ho "hadn't hoard nuthin' from Wash
ington. " Aside from this vugtio rumor that
HID government estimate would show up fav
orably to the bears , the sparing news nllout
was bullish , as u rule. St. Louis reported u
bettor feeling there on buying by millers ,
am. this was backed up by u report later that
most of the winter wheat mills in the deal to
i mi half time during January , would start
ui next Monday , Clark .t Co. . of Now Yorlt ,
wired that the stocks of llour in UK ; east
were running low , nnd Hostou inercliuiits estimate -
timato that ilvo houses in that city who
usually carry Ki.OCO barrels in the aggregate ,
hail only 17,000 barrels ou hand. This wns
looked on us a "straw. " The meagre foreign
news was generally favorable , ana bakers'
advices were particularly significant of a
hardening tendency abroad. May wheat
closed ut1.0. ) > 4. January ranged Jut IMVtf ®
USc and closed at the bottom. July opened at
95 > ic , ranted to UJ@'J ( 1' ' c , nnd closed nt
04'i'c. Trade in tbo months other than May
wns small.
There was another dull day in the corn
pit , with prices moving over a very narrow
range. Prices were easy and orders scarce.
Few of the heavy local plungers bought and
sold soiiio good-sl/ed lines among themselves ,
but without much disturbance to values.
The exports from the Atlantic ports were
nbout eijual to tbo recent average , and .M.OOO
bushels were cleared for Havre. Franco ,
from Now Orleans. The cash offerings were
light , and the day's reeoints were about : ! 0
cars under yesterday's estimate , and only liiO
cars nro expected to-morrow. The inspec
tion returns maintained the recent record of
small propoilions of No. 2. There was
nothing llko activity nt any time of ttio day ,
but the marhot , though dull , was about
ulcady until wheat began to show such a do-
cidcd inclination to go to pieces , when the
sellers of corn became moro numerous , and
the market was at Its weakest phase towards
the close. The llnal quotations were from J
to ' { < under those at the close yesterday.
Oats showed gonnrnl quietude , with light
trading most of the time , averaging nearly
Btoady. There wore no features early , with
May In doiiiand around "J c , after barely
touching ' 7Jfe , while the sollcis
usually contended for figures u point or two
highor. There was no life to the near months ,
with the Initial Inquiries for March , and
2Xo blii. The recciptH and estimates were
both light , nnd regular No. 2 In store was
offered sparingly , ruling steady at 2oo. Late
in the session there was Increased activity
with n largo trade in May , which sold down
Speculation In provisions was again under
tlui average volume to-day , the business
passing being light and the animated periods
few mid of short duration. During the
greater portion of iho time the pit was dull
nnd deserted , nnd there was a pretty linn
opening to the market at prices n shndo
nbovo yesterday's closing , duo probably to
the very moderate receipts of hogs and
stronger prices for raw material. But the
advancing tendency of the product was soon
checked by increased offerings , there being
some disposition shown early by Wright and
othars to short the market , 'llieso offerings
caused May pork to sag from $1:1.55 : to
flU.-ITJv' At this Juncture Armour's brokers
commenced buying , which boosted
pork to $ lI.CO ! ( ! 18.j2 ( . Holosson &
Mcl'herson and James were also fair buyers ,
and during the last hour of the session the
fooling was pretty firm. In view of the
break that was had In wheat Into in the ses
sion , the close for provisions was remarka
bly btroug , The obstructions In the tolo-
gniphlu service shut the market off from
eastern and foreign news , though at the In
termediate points hog products were Hrmly
held. Hnt > od on yesterday's latest quotations

The market was In about the same condi
tion as at the beginning of the week. After
the heavy run of Monday and Tuesday the
receipts dropped down to a very low point
to-day nnd the buyers were forced to get out
in the morning once moro nnd hustle them
selves to Illl their orders. Beef cattle sold
nt least lOc higher than yesterday , and In
some cases the advance was perhaps
even greater , simply because of
the light receipts. The packers paid mostly

MiokeyV" "Iiidado , thin. I'm not.
" 'what kind iv a lighter is
hoV" "ITo mostly lights at
arm's length. " "Oh , ho ; thin
y'll have t' tackle him roughmftum
ble. " ' By this time the table had been
cleared away. While Mrs. Finn re
tired to the outhouse to wash the dishes ,
Mr. Finn gave his boy& a few lessons in
the art of physical ofionso and defense.
'
"Now , you st'band there and I'll sthand
'
here , " 'said be to his son. "I'll bo
Fogerty an' you'll be ycrsol' ; put yor
toe agia my lee nn' luk nt mo oyo.
Niver moind me lisbts. Knpe yor eye
on miuo. Now , whin I r'aclio ' out 1110
ight you throw up your arrnm an'
catch th' blow an' " ' Unngl ctitno the
lint of Mr. Finn's hand alongside of
Mickey's bond , and headlong Hew
ho boy into the woodbox ,
ihslodgiug two dominiok hens
; md n rooster , who flow around the room
squawking loudly. Little Mike got out
if the woodbox slowly and just : i trillo
-roggy. A. piece of slciu as largo as a
cent was missing from bin uooe. I5ut
his blood was up as ho eame up to Iho
scralch a second lime. "A few welts
loiko that'll make ye tough , sonny , "
baid his father. "Vo bee , ye was not
ready wid yor loft whin I welted yo.
Now 0.01110 on ! " Miekoy was like u cat
for agility. Ho jumped baek and
avoided two blows which would un
doubtedly have sent him over Ihe
htove. His eyes gliitercd lilie llio o of
a liger Kitten about lo spring. ITe
fought entirely on the defensive until
his father , in an unguarded moment ,
had dropped bis guard. Thou , likp an
infuriated bull , he rushed in , soi/.od
one of bib father's logs , and lift
ing it from the ground toppled him
over backward , and ho fell like iv Ion of
coal on his head , jarring the shanty to
its foundations and bringing the stove-
piue to the floor. Before ho could ribfl
the young demon mounted him in a
eloud of boot and began raining blows
upon his fneo until ho roared with pain.
To add to the confusion Mrs. Finn ap
peared upon the scone with her broom ,
which she used without discrimination
upon both of the combatants until they
were glad to cncapo lo the yard. "JJail
luck I'.yo , mo young bull , yo hnv' th1
hkin bcratchod all'me face , " roared Mr.
Finn , looking around in Iho darkness
for u club. "It's square wo are thin ,
father. " replied lilllo Mike from Ibo
olhor bide of the fence. "Sluiro you
'
skinned mo uosp lirst ! " ' 'Via , and 'I'll
Biiin yen both wid Hi' falbovo log comin'
in , " kaid MfB. Finn as she slood in thu
doorway.
