CJIICAGO , Jan. II. Wllhln thirty min
utes of ttu > end of the session today there
Vns a sliEht rattllnR of the dry bones
which nppenreil to frighten the charts In
the jjrnln pits. Wheat , corn and oats each
rose from n state of dull Indifference to
their Mirraimdlngu to a wideawake alert-
ne H and they closed at ndvancoB of % c In
wheat and corn and from lie to ? ie In oalo.
1'rovlslons were Irregular , but closed with
Kalns of 17'/4c ' In May pork and T'.Sc ' each
In laid and ribs.
"Wheat started rx shade firmer than H
closed yesterday at from BDHc to oJ'4o ' and
for an hour made little change from the
opening. The firmness was duo to the com
paratively light receipts at Minneapolis and
Dtilulh , which amounted to 412 carloads ,
against D21 yesterday and 414 a week ago ,
but as only ICfl curs were received a year
ngo this had little effect on the bears. The
Kuropwin political nlIllation v.ns still further
Improved , ax an advance of fi-10 per cent In
Knjjllali consols Indicated , The olllclnl UK-
ure.i of last week's world'n exports mmlo
the week's total about D.700,000 bu , , or 1,600-
000 bu. Ices than the estimitted needs of the
Importing nations. Hut the business and
llnanclal outlook seemed to be regarded as
milllclontly uncertain to warrant caution In
all speculative ventures , and the result was
that the volume of business wan light and
price changes narrow. Export clearances
from the principal Atlantic ports , Including
New Orlennn , equalled 230,000 bu. In wheat
and Hour. That appeared to be a disap
pointment to the bulls. The market weak
ened on the report of Ilrudstreot'B visible
nupply statement , which showed nn Increases
In this country west of the Hookies of 071-
000 bu. . against the ofllclnl Knowing yealer-
< loy of S97.000 bu , decrease. The remainder
at lU-adstretL's was bullish , tits
RtoekN ullont for and In Kurope
belritl ( oliteetl 2i > ! MO,0'i1 ' 'Int. ' , leav
ing u nut decrease In the world of 1,069-
.000 bu. That rcpoit caused May wheat to
decline to r > Sc , but It had a quick recovery
ngaln to K9Vie. On shorts covering the mar
ket rose from KPlc to 50V4c and rested at
C0c. Corn ruled quiet , but held very
Btcady , with the trade about featureless.
Local rceeliitR continue llbcial , but there
wan not much selling pressure' and the
price kept very steady. Mtiy opened un
changed at 2Slic and at from 2S'Jc , to 2Si/4c
split , and hold steady within narrow lim
its. There was a stronger feeling during
the last hour and May sold to 2Sc , closing
at that figure.
Oats were slow. The feeling was firm
early. Influenced by n better cash trade
and a fairly good short demand. Just be
fore the close free buying caused nn ad
vance. Mnv opened at 19-JSc , told at from
19-c to 19c and closed at 19c.
Hog products were decidedly stronger
early In the day on the light arrivals of
live hogs , but on heavy realizing sales
most of the advance was lost. The market
later recovered part of the decline , with
the advance In wheat , and prices nt the
dope showed an advance of from 15c to
17Uic In May pork , 7',4c In lard and 12J e In
ribs.
Estimates for tomorrow : Wheat , 63 cars ;
corn , 420 cars ; oats , 175 cars ; hogs , 32,000

NEW YORK , Jan. 14. The stock market
opened strong under the favorable ausple-cs of
higher quotations for e > ur securities In London
and of further Intelligence of a more pacific
trend In political developments. In tlio early
dealings udumces wcr bcored , In which New
York Central figured for 2 per cent. In the more
active shares the gains were restricted let a
S to 1 per cent limit. Thu strength of the mar
ket wan In a largo m nsuio due la the Increas
ing confidence that all practicable measures will
be taken by the eo > eminent to prevent a
stringency In the money market uu u lesult of
the withdrawals from the bunks Incidental to the

ratlcence , lde from statement * that the div

CATTLE The receipts of cattle fell short
of the run yesterday by some 40i ) head , but
there were enough to supply the demand
nnd It was nil the better that the supply
should bo light after the break yesterday.
The market on fat steers was slow and
In most cases a little easier. In a few In
stances salesmen who had cattle that
seemed to especially please the buyers
thought they got fully steady prices , but
the general market wns weak. Kvcry one
bought freely ycstciday and they wore not
overly anxious for cattle today , so that
they couM afford to take their time In makIng -
Ing selections. Among tno offerings w'ero
some right good cattle. About everything
was sold before the close.
Theie were llftccn or sixteen loads of
cows and heifers on sale. The buyers
picked up the most desirable among the
offerings In the morning , paying about
steady prices. Later the market castd off
and closed slow and weak.
The offerings of stockcrs nnd feeders
were very light mid the market strong.
Feeding cattle of nil kinds arc bringing
way up prices as compared with fat cattle.

CHICAGO , Jnn. 14. The name of the man
who Mondiy morning asphyxiated his wife
and five children and hlmpelf Is not Peter
Hougaard , butJame3 _ Hensen. jrhc murderer
was a fugitive from Justice , having swindled
his creditors out of $40,000 and fled to Amcr
lea. Upcn his arrival In this country he as
sumed the name of Peter Hougaard. A letter
written by the man's wife to the Danish vice
consul January 5 Indicates that she was no
Ignorant of her husband's purpose. Other
circumstances connected with the cans wtmlc
tend to show that Her.ren probably engaged
In crooked transactions slnco coming to Chicago
cage and had been made desperate by the
failure of his schemes.
While It was at first thought the deed was
caused by destitution , Investigation , It Is said
shows this was not entirely the case. On ex
amination among the personal effects of the
dead family a number of letters wore found
throwing light on the circumstances leading
to the murder. According to a story told
b ; Charles Hopkins , who acted as agent for
Ili'nsen , the latter had a commission IIOUPC
vii Denmark. He secured a largo amount of
produce from the Danish farmers and after
exposing of It for cash left with his family
without settling with his creditors. When
ho landed In Manchester , England , ho de
posited 500 , taking two certificates of deposit
of equal denomination. Later , In this coun
try , he signed one of the certificates of deposit
and drew the money from the English bank.
Hensen forgot how he bad signed his name
and was unable to get the balance of ths
money and In response to pressure brought
by the Danish consul decided to turn the
nuney over to the Danish government as part
payment tn his creditors. "I know he
swindled farmers out of Jl.COO whllo ho wu
In the dairy business , " concluded Hopkins.

stay abroad until summer , but his trip was

mander of the police force of Now York.
"I have nothing to say , " eald ex-Chief
Dyrnes , "about my plans or the possibility of
my returning to active police work. I am
natlsflcd with my prospects , but under cer
tain circumstances may bo Induced to renew
the battle for law and order. "

U03TON. Jan. II. The Gloucester flshlns
schorncr Fortuna \vas tunk In a collision
with tlio Uoston l-'rnlt company's 'steamer
Ilnrnstabla off Highland llRlit last night.
Nine of the Fortunu'o crew were drowned ;
fourteen were saved. Those lost arc : Wil
liam Aclun.in , llobcrt ChllJs , Harry McPhoe ,
Tliomas Steward , Crawford Mlnnch , Ilnrvey
Kmcncau , Simon Devans , John Clnrk nnd Wll
llnni Tobln.
The first news of the disaster reached the
city on the arrhnl of the Harnstaulo today ,
with the fourteen survivors of the Kortuna'a
crew on board. Krotn these men It was
lenrncd that the collision occurred about
7:30 : p. m. , when the vessels were about four
miles off Highland light. The night wns ex
tremely darlc and a lumpy sea wao running.
The Fortuna was bound for the Oeorgcs ,
carrying a crew of twcnly-lhree men , In.
eluding the captain , John W , drcenlaw. The
schooner wns on the stnrbrard tack , going
at a good rate. Tha Harnstnulo's lights
were seen , but knowing she had the right of
way the schooner's course was not altered ,
until too late. , The steamer struck her well
forward , cutting n deep hole , and the
schooner began to setllo Immediately , Be
fore the boats could ho cleared she went
down and the crew were left struggling In
the water until fourteen of them wcro picked
up by tlio Barnstable's boat. The others
had gone down.
Captain Payne of the Harnatahlc said to a
reporter of the Awoclntccl press : "Wo wcro
about three or four miles off Highland light ,
southwest , v.hcn wo struck the schooner
right under her bows. We wcro procesdlnu
on our way , never dreaming of the Impending
calamity , when suddenly wo raw the star
board light of a vessel directly In our course.
It seems as If ths light had been covered
by the fore tackle and the wind at that mo
ment had blown It clear , thus enabling us to
yeo the great danger \vo were In. The whcol
was hove around to port , but It was too Into
to avoid the collision. We struck tlio Por-
tuna about thrco feet aft of the fore rig ;
glng and she sank about four minutes later.
Wo Instantly launched cur boats and made
every effort to save the crew. Wo got four *
teen of them , among whom was Captain
Qrecnlaw , but nine \\cra drowned. "
Giptatn Payne displayed much emotion as
ho described the accident and expressed pro
found regret at Us fatal results.
The rescued men were propefly cared for
on board the Barnstable and Immediately
upon their arrival this morning were sent
to their hcmos In Gloucester by the train.
The lost sailors all shipped irom Gloucester.
The Fortuna was < a vessel of about 110
tons and was Insured In the Ilostcn Marino
Insurance company. Captain Greenlaw was
a part owner. The other owners all rcs.do
In Gloucester.
THIS 1'IIIKST TALK13U TOO MUCH.

PORTLAND , Ore. , Jan. 14. Rev. M. J.
Kelly , parish priest of Collar Mills , near this

Gross attempted to silence the belligerent
irlest the attacks became moro personal and

of the abuse. It Is said that other priests

nucli alarmed lest they should be called up
