CHICAOO , Feb. "b. Wheat closed toda ;
Ic lower than yesterday and made a ncv
low prlco record for May at C2c. Wcake
cahlen , largo northwestern receipts , smal
clearances , mild weather and frco Ilfpildatloi
wore responsible for the decline. Corn wen
down with wheat and closed ' ,4o lower foi
May at Chicago , mnklng n now low prlc <
record. May oats closed > , tc lower , Maj
pork lost COc , May lard ICc and May rib :
22H.C. .
\Vlicat started weak with a loss of > ,4c foi
May at C3Uc. The day's news Was bcarlsl
anil the bulls had apparently sought cover
The foreign 'markets were weak and lower
The northwestern receipts were heavy. Mill
iieapolls and Oiiluth reported 333 , cars
compared with flS cars In the corresponding
day last year. The weather was mild will
nothing particularly chilly In sight. Tin
London Mark Lane K.xpress said Kngllsl
wheats were generally Sd per ipiartei
( etjual to 2c per bushel ) lower , and then
was no demand for foreign wheat.
The clearances ot wheat and Hour from tin
four principal Atlantic ports wcro only 160 ,
000 liu , The decline WHS attended by a fev
rallies. Captain Phillips and Pardrldgi
bought on the llrst decline , but when theli
wants wcro supplied prices wont down again
Valentino , 1' . U. Armour ft Co's prlnclpa
broker , was ono of the conspicuous seller !
and there was frco liquidation. The closliif
rabies gave evidence of continued wcaknes :
In the markets across the "pond , " and Mas
llnlsliod easy and tired at only % c above thi
bottom , having ornamented Itself with r
now low prlco record at 02e. May openec
at C3'4c ' and with Blight fluctuations declined
' so and reacted ' , Jc to the close at G'lViC.
Corn made a now record today , May sclllnc
jlnwn lo , from 37c to 37V4c , and July at from
37Th to 38c , which figures are the lowcsl
iilnco the life ot these futures , the continued
line weather , continued liberal receipts and
the action of wheat all acting as depressing
Influences. Today's receipts , whllo not ui
to the estimate , were very free , and tomor
row's predictions liberal. Cables were weal )
and lower and outsldo markets were all
easier. The opening trades were at a frac
tional lo.-iji and under moderate offerings anil
lack of support Fold down from % c to Vic
moro , rallied a trlllo and closed with May
but Uc from the bottom finureo of the day.
In oats there was a fair trade and an
cas'ur ' feeling , but considering tlio weakness
lu other grains , oats held up well. Prices
only declined from % c to Uc , and closed
i.sc above the bottom figures. The de
crease of stocks of contract oats In store
aided In maintaining prices and tlicro was
llttlo disposition to sell. Provisions
opened easy and slightly lower for pork
and ribs on a decline In prices for live hogs
nt tlio yards , notwithstanding a lighter run
than was anticipated.
The most prominent commission house
then offered the product freely , particularly
l > ark , which resulted In a further decline ,
lard and ribs responding. The volume of
trading was light In the absence of any
support. The break In wheat and corn
also contributed to the weakness , The
decllno continued with the packers selling
anil with nothing to sustain the market ,
a few orders coming In to pell. A mod
erate reaction followed on n llttlo buying
and then the market went all to pieces
on some stop loss orders coming out. Thcro
was a slight recovery Just before the
close with the feeling weak and with last
prices near the bottom. Compared with
lust night. May pork is COc lower ; May
lard IGo lower and May ribs 22'XsO lower.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat ,
TiVcarsj corn , 350 cars ; oats , 103 cars ; hogs ,
23.000 head.

Sugar ted in the trnnanctluns , and after nn

took a ilownwnnl turn which , although In
terrupted occnslotinlly by p.irtinl recoveries ,
was not checked until n decline of _ ' , s per

73 % In the Into denlliiKH and closing ' .d per

very henvy nt times and wns snld lo bo for
the account of n bull pool , which , having
failed to iiiakn a successful coniblnntlon ,
had atnrtpd In to turn the short Interest

wns nt ono time Vi per cent nbovo the open
ing , but the offerliuts bocnnio too heavy for
the bears to rendlly absorb nnd n brcnk of
1 % per cent occurred before noon. An
nouncements of thu fill I mxof congress to
nut up the price of spirits In bond caused n
rally of ' . per cent during the afternoon , of
which U per cent was lost nt the close. Chicago -
cage Gas was very unfavorably affected by
the nctlon of the common council of Chlcagt
In granting a franchise to n rival company
nnd In reducing the price of gas 1C cents
A break of 1 % per cent was mndo at tin
opening nnd a further decline of % per cen
resulted. Later a brisk rally of ! ' , & per com
took plncc , followed by a reaction of 1 % pel
cent , a rally of l > 4 per cent , and a flnul re
action of % per cent.
In the railway list , which was sadly nng
lectcd , St. I'nul was the only stock In whlcl
the sales reached n largo figure. The flue
tuatlons wcro limited to % per cent and tin
loss on the dny was only % per cent
Other grangers moved sluggishly , the chnngc !
on the dny being merely small fractions
Ulchrnomi Terminal surprise the , street bj
a sudden spurt , moving up y , per cent 01
reports of Increased earning * by some of tin
branch roads. The stock reacted % pel
cent . , In ' the later dealings. i Delaware
Lackawnnnn & Western advanced on the daj
1 % per cent ; Tennessee Coal and Iron ad
vanced 1 % per cent , nnd St. Paul , Minnesota
& Manitoba rose 1 par cent , while Lead pre
ferred declined 174 per cent. Lead common
1 % per cent and Northern I'aclHc preferred
1 per cent.
During the nftornoon the speculation was
quiet and fnlrly firm , but In tlio final deal
ings a reactionary Influence prevailed anil
the market closed easier. The bond innr-
ket was firm until near the close when II
gave way slightly.
The Post says ; It was but natural that
the recent halt In rising prices In one quar
ter of the market should bo followed today
by a slow reaction. There was today , however -
over , llttlo pressure of stock on the general
list except from short sellers. Many securi
ties were hardly quoted and the closing was
featureless.
Aside from the sales In those stocks
made up alike from realizing offers nnd
from new short stock put out Interest cen
tered today In Chicago Gas. An ordinance
favorable to n competing company has been
passed by the Chicago aldermen and If the
now gas company's promises are bona fldo
the action of the council was entirely proper.
But few people seem to bollovo that the
low price for gas guaranteed by the now
applicants Is fixed In good faith , and Indeed
the chief subject of comment In the market
Is that the Chicago Gas company suffered
the aldermen to escape what may be called
Its own restraining influences. This surprise
Is not unlike that of the sugar speculators ,
who whisper to ono another with amaze
ment and resentment that "not a congress
man was to bo bought on any terms. "

Erecting of tint Furnipri National Alliance
President I.oiK'kK' Speerli ,
TOPEKA , Feb. 6. The lower floor of
Representative hall was filled this morning
by 400 people assembled to hear the opening
speeches of tlio meeting of the National
Farmers Alliance and Industrial union.
About forty delegates were present.
Governor Lowelllng delivered the address
of welcome in behalf of Kansas and John
F. L. Wllletts for the state alliance.
"Farmer" Dean of Now York and Mann
Page of Richmond , Va. , responded.
A secret session was held this after
noon to bo followed by a public meeting to
night , at which President Loucks will de
liver his annual address.
President Loucks' address began with n
reference to the present financial depression
and ho said that at no period In the nation's
history have there been so many Idle pcoplo
as at the present time. Tariff legislation ,
ho said , was not the cause of the panic-
but money falling.
The speaker was severe In his denuncia
tion of legislation against silver , lie de
clared against a per capita basis for money
and argued for the government ownership
of railways. Ho declared that the govern
ment should not attempt to gain the owner
ship ot all nt once , but begin with the Gulf
& Interstate railroad. Ilo was radical In
his opposition to tlio bond Issue and N.ild
a perpetual bonded Indebtedness Is the ono
sought.
.Paying his respects to the president , ho
said : "I have no words to protest against
the Issue of mora bonds , for there was never
a moro obstinate , merciless autocrat In a
despot's throne than ho who now rules with
an iron hand at Washington , and never was
there a more pliant , servllo body of repre
sentatives of the people than those who as
sembled to do his will. "
Ho said ho was opposed to a platform con
taining nothing but n free silver plank , and
was opposed to Carlisle's plan for u "money
for the world. " flu- paid that the recent bl-
motalllc confcrenko resulted In the surren
der to foreign domination. Ilo assorted
that ovary republic ' 'Is In danger and that
ono of the greatest dangers arises from thu
starving thousand * ot unemployed.

TUESDAY , Feb. ( i.
The two days receipts have been heavier
tl'an for the first two days of last week by
about 1,000 cattle , COO hogs and 100 sheep.
Cattle values were lower tploy , unevenly
lower , and tlio market was alow and drag
ging throughout. Eastern markets were
mure or less dcmorallxod , and with ample
offerings here , no ontcldo demand to speak
of and buyers for local dressed boi'f Louses
alt moro or less Indifferent , the Hcllora hud
nothing to do but submit as ; racer lly as
they could to the Inevitable. Tlie winrally
common tpiallty of the offerings il'.i'i not
help matters any. Some very goo.l roriifed
westerns that averaged 1G11 .bs. brcught
$3.fi5 , but fair to good steers woig'ilr.g ' trim
1,050 to 1,300 Ibs. sold at 'rom SII2. . tc
$3.CO , while poor to fair stuff ell Irom
J2.90 to $3.20. It was a dull , weak market ,
with prices anywhere from about ( leady or
good to lOc and 15c lower on mo.llnm and
common ntiiff , but a very fair and i rat-en-
ably early clearance wan effected.
A llttlo over a third of tlio offerings today
'
were cows and mixed lots. There was a
tolerably decent demand and prices ruled
steady to a shade easier than Monday. Some
cliolco fat 122S-II * . cows sold for $3.10 , and
nothing of any cotiKorpicncc sohl at under
$1.75. For fair to good butcliors' stock
prices were Generally around $2.25 to $2.50.
Calves were no higher at from $2.90 to $5.CO
for common to choice Rtock , and the name
was true as to rough stock generally , with
sales nt from $1.80 to $3.10 for poor to choice
bjills and stags. . .
"oiilV a limited amount of business was
transacted In stockers and feeders. Sup
plies were not large nor was the demand
overly brisk. Prices averaged up very
nearly as goad as on Monday , but In sym
pathy with the fat cattle market the feeling
was decidedly easier. Good to choice
feeders are quoted at $3 to $3.40 , fair to
good at $2.70 to S3 , and lighter , commoner
grades at from $2.70 down , Representative
