CIIICAOO , 111. , rob. 27.-Tho lowest prices ulnco the harvest , were made today for wheat , corn and oats. No.I spring wheat to the num ber of twfiity-onu oars was sold 'at GOc per bushel. At that rate the farmer who raised the wheat would not rcall/o over 85c ppr bushul for that , If It ciintu from any great dlstanco. Compared with Hattirday'H closing prices , wlieat Is Kc lower and corn and oats each lc off Provisions were llrmcr and higher and closed with the following gains : Pork , 12'ic ' ; lard , 17'4-cand rlln Ific. The mild weather was accepted by many as the harbinger of an early spring and probably had some Inlluencu upon the minds of traders. The selling of May wheat and buying "f July on Saturday by parties who were support to represent the so-called bull clique also tended to upset thi ) piovlous popularestlmatc regardIng - Ing the Intentions of the heavy longs toward the May deal. It was alM > thn general opinion thai the vis ible supply would not show much If any de- creaso. In the latter respect the crowd was In erior. for the decrease as published later In the day was 751,000 bu. compared with a de crease it year ago of 302,089 bu. This had a reviving effect for a while , as did the low tem perature prevailing In the northwest. A Miveru fiecze-iip following the recent cold weather was regarded as a dangerous element. Hut on an advance there seemed to bo a general desire to sell , under which the market becaino decidedly denresscd. Tteports of big stocks still In farmers'hands In thu nortliwesl and declarations that tlio Chicago market was relatively about fie out of line with the other principal wheat centers caused general discouragement among the longs , and there was free liquidation. A hcvorc decline which followed was started by the selling of aoo.ooo bu. of wheat by Conn.selman A Day. 100,000 bit. of which was long wheat sold for Now Vork account and the oilier 100.000 bu. was sold short for customer In the northwest. The house being supposed to be In touch with the clique their selling had damaging .effects , particularly when nt 7Cc there was still no fdgti of support from the clique. The market opened about clower than Saturday's clos ing , advanced ' ! , then May declined l'c and July declined , e , then ruled steadier and the closing was from ] .ic to ' , c loner for May and Uc lower for July than the closing figures of Corn trading was rather spasmodic with llb- Sral business eventually scored , prices moving own fractionally. There were few or no ole- inents apparent , with the situation In the ceiieial drift of sentiment ono of bearlshncss. ' Sorts" covered fairly on the soft spots and lilts tended to prevent any serious decline. Free liquidation by longs in oats caused a heavy feeling. The market closed easy at Uc above tlio lowest figures with a not loss of from UP tote. \ . A trade was made In July for the first time at Ic under .May.

Williams of tlio firm of Williams & Cross , s back from Chicago , where lie has been the nest of tlio wlntor looking after his World's fair hotel. The I'lodm-o Trade Heporter and Shippers .iiizuttoof Chicago gives Omaha commission nen gii'iit credit for enterprise in organizing n branch of the National League of Commission neu. A commission man reports that In u ship ment of butter that lie received from the country there was thirty pounds of ono lot ! hat had the nppcaranco of having been made From frozen or scalded cream. It had a sort of crumbly npnoarance , but when cut through the middle with u knife It looked all right where It was cut. When u chunk of tills but ter was taken up In tlio hand and squeezed the water would run out of It In a stream. The butter was more like a sponge than anything else. On being worked over the thirty pounds was reduced to fourteen pounds. Occasional rolls of such butter have been received In this market , but heretofoie In such small quanti ties as not to attract attention. Commission men say thai butter of this kind has been made with some kind of pepsin that has caused the butter to absorb a largo amount of water. It Is quite probable that , some ono lias leen out through the country selling a recipe for Increasing the output of butter. II Is needless to nay that the scheme will bo a fail ure , as buyers will make a deduction for the water. St. LouU .Markets. Hi. LOUIS. Mo. , Fob. 27.

NEW YOHK , Keb. 27. The stock market was qulto actlvo today , but almost entirely free from excitement , but liquidation In many nany stocks continued and the bears were ictlvo In different portions of the list giving .ho market us a whole a drooping tendency : hroughout most of thoday , while u few stocks were materially depressed. Movements were rregular throughout the day , nnd hero and hero substantial gains were established. Tlio > ardenlng tendency of money restricted buy- tig for the long account , and the unfavorable jank statement Intensified thu anxiety In ro- ard to money rates In the Immediate future. Late In the day 8 per cent was reached In call loans , which gave the principal Incentive to a vigorous drive at Heading , although a ru- nor that the rouortof the receivers would bo infavorablo was used to depress the stock to the lowest point yet attained since It began to ilecllne. Sterling exchange rates were some what easier and sterling loans were affected , which led to the abandonment of the orouo-ed shipment of gold tomorrow and to the Impres sion that no more would go out this-week , Huylngof stocks today was principally for the short account. Opening prices were In almost all cases sllglvtly lower , and fractional conces sions were general In the early trading. The grangers were weak , and Iliirllngton re tired ! ' , and Hock Island 1 per cent , butSugar was taken In hand by the Insiders , and after soiling down to 110i It was lifted to 118 , and It Is said the slock was used as collateral for sterling loans today. The entire improvement was maintained until late In the day , when in company with the decline In Heading It was letoir to 110'ic at the close , nt which point It showed a net gain of 2Ji percent. The only other stocks to show nny marked strength during the day were New England and Northern 1'aclllc preferred , each of which closed with a gain of 1 percent. After a fractional reaction from its best price , the coal stocks wore sold early In the day , the selling being accompaned by a rumor that tlio sales agents would lecommend a decrease in coal prices for tlio month of March. Lackaw.inna raised 1 ! { per cent , though the others were fairly maintained. The final drive at Heading , however , left It 27. per cent lower for thoday. Hears attacked dcnoraj Electric toward noon and fora time it was the weak feature of tlio list , dropping from 107 to 103l/i , and after a rally to luo it again retired , closing 2i poreonUoworat 104. The other Industrial1- sympathized with this movement and Cotton OH closed 1 per cent lower and Chicago Oas ls ! per cent. Krle became - came prominent late In tlio day , when It also was made the object of a rumor of a receiver ship , H failed to rally and closed at 21 \ with a loss of 19 percent. The general market dropped , but moved within narrow limits , and tlio cldNO was heavy at the lowest prices , The Post says : There was a more rational tone to the stock market during the early hours today , although the opening was some what feverish and Irregular. There was , however - over , no general return to bettor prices , the favorable conditions being at least a tonitio- rary rest In the work of guessing values. The belief that the market has been oversold and the accumulation of a short Interest In a few specialties created sentiment to Increase strength , but the response was not especially encouraging. The fact that tliero was no pro nounced rally shows that the conditions that cause thu abnormal dullness nnd activity of thu stock still exist , at least In a latent state. These conditions are of a monetary naturu and become aggravated day by day , There were few new developments and It was practi cally a waiting market.

" Oh. would I were dead now , Or up In my bud now. To cover up mv head now , And bivcii gooj cry. Nerves jnnplcd nncl out of tutio wring this cry from a tired woman. Many u ono fools this wish for n peed cry nftcr the dinner is over mid tlio puosts gono. There nro ninny trials that hoset the faithful housowlfo nnd relux her nervous system. "Four weeks nrV { says Mrs. * P. P. Vlckcry of Etist Auburn , Mo. , "I wits suffering from ono of those awful bad headaches , which have boon my com panion , for the past your , only worse nt times. My back ached. 1 did not sloop well , and I had those frightened nights which only those who are nervous can understand , 1 did not euro whether 1 ate anything or not rather not. I foil so tired and had that all-gone feeling , with no strength to do my easiest homo duties. Ono short flight of stairs took all of the breath and strength I had , and then I conld just sit down and cry. "Every little noise made mo jump and my head snap. My eyes felt as though they wore being drawn in through the top of my head. I must confess I was fooling sick. A friend , who hud only taken a few doses of Faino's celery com pound herself and received much benefit from it , said to mo : "Won't you please try some of my compound ? " Well , I took some. In three days I was feeling like a now norson , got mo a bottle , and when that was gene I could take a full dose. "I have gained strength every day , and can eat Ihroo or four times a day. I sleep like a log , and my head must bo n a now one , as 1 have not had aheadacho since I began taking the compound. I can got up two Illghts of stairs all right now , and fool so much bettor that I wWt every ono in the world who over hail these feelings would just try niiobotilout Palr.o's celery compound and bo convin ced of its worth. 1 eannot say too much in its praise. ' ' And Mrs. S. O. Perkins of the same place , whoso portrait Is given above , says : "For throe years 1 was in a very weak and debilitated condition. I tried many physicians but could got no roliot from any of them. "I tried I'aino's celery compound and to that 1 owe mycomplotu restoration to health. My nervous system was a total wreck , and I was unnb'.o ' to do my work much of the time , but now 1 am doing my own work and can slcop well nights the result of taking throe bottles ot the compound. I recommend it to all who are suffering from dvHDopsia or are 'run down. ' I do not think that I could say too much in favor of it. " Thousands of such letters from every state in the Union might bo printed , but thcso years of splendid results have so connected I 'nine's coloi'i compound witli success that the name ilsylf lias bccoina a perpetual letter of recommendation.
