yisttrdny. Sonic of tha shorts covered , but
nmny more nro still out In the ftlgld wcnlli-
tr. A grout deal of stiength came fiom the
heavy exporting agreements reported from
IJvHton. Other markets were extremely dull
but steady , corn closing a shade- higher , oats
% e hlghon nnd provisions 5c higher.
Wheat had recovered from thn extremity
of yesterday's depression by the tlmo of bu.
Ginning the operations of smother day. It
Btixrtcd with n rise of 4c or nt from Sle to
fc2e for Mny. Only Tor a short time , liow-
cver , did the fair opening promise for the
bulls continue , nnd they had to suffer an
other bad half hour before the bull nnws
bccnmo strong enough to change the tone
ot the market. In half an hour from the
ntart May wheat had dropped to Sl'.ic. In
the course of the next hour It had recov
ered to S2Hc. ! , The linn opening was wuiscd
by the opening striingth of Liverpool and
the small local and northwest receipts. The
Ohio mate crop report , which RHVU H'e ' con-
tlltion of wheat at 88c , compared with 1U1
December 1 , also contributed slightly to the
opening adviini-c. Liverpool , whllu noting
a ilecilliip there of ? id per cental to start
with , imcrlbcd It entirely to sympathy with
Hit- previous duy'ti dcprdwlon hew. C. Icuso
received 10 carloads compared with SI n
year ago. Ilnncapolls and UiiUith got only

IK a further decline at Liverpool and
partly awing lo thu bearish tone oC the
Cincinnati 1'ilcc Cm-rout's remark ? concernIng -
Ing the condition of fnll CUM ti wheat. Rvl-
ilpnccs of conllnultif ; demand for wheat
from the United Kingdom thnn came In und
turned thu conrne of the market. Tele
grams fiom Iloston , New York und Huffiilo
it-porlrd vessels engaged nt the former
plaeo for great qunntltlcH of grain for the
United Kingdom ; In fact , nil the available
freight room nt Hoston until April , nuffulo
said 7HuW ) bushels of wheat were under
orders to KO from there to Hoston , it nil n
Nr-w York message reported a great denl
of the Iloston vessel room was taken for
wheat from Chicago. About half nn hour
from the close May was bringing ffi&c , and
It cloned nt 82fcc ! sellers.
Corn was Inanimate , notwithstanding
some disturbing rumors of Immense quanti
ties of hot corn In railroad cars nt New
Orleans and Gnlvestonvntch were , how
ever , ofllclally contradicted from both
places. The business In the pit was very
small , nnd the fluctuations in price narrow.
Mny opened u shade lower at 2j9c. declined
to 23Vie , recovered to nnd closed nt 23'/.c.
Receipts were- only eighty cars.
Oats was n shade firmeras the brenk
yesterday seems to have started consider
able buying both to cover shoits nnd for
the long account. Trading was extremely
narrow , ivhnt little business there was be
ing In small lots. A rumor from IJoston to
the effect that charters or oats for three
dnys amounted to l.OOO.COo nushcls assisted
materially In the late nttvnncc. May
opened VsO higher nt llWO'tc , sold back to
18'sc nnd recovered to ll'i&c. nt which price
It closul.
Trading In provisions almost wpiit to
nothing today , not a single transaction be-
ins ; roenrdcd In the first half hour. Oncn-
Irg prices were nominally a s ale higher. In
sympathy with a lighter run of hogs than
expected , When trading dlii commence this
advance was maintained and a little more
nddcd to It , nid.'d . perhaps by the strength
of wheat. At the close May pork wus Be
higher at J7.5 ; Mny lard about 5c higher at
J'"y ' Hb3 nbout 5c higher at

AntlirncltcM nit Inception.
NHW YOItK , Jnn. 7. The stock market toilny ,
generally speaking , reflected the efforts of pow
erful financial Interests to neutralize the effect
of the reduction of the Delaware fc Hudson
dividend. Manipulation waa evident In the
high-priced stocks , for effect upon the general
list. A tendency toward a higher level was
apparent at the outset , which was Inlluenccd by
foreign buying In this market and the execu
tion of orders for commission account. Hxecu-
lion of Improvement In Impending railway traf-
no returns stimulated an Inquiry for the leading
railroad stocks. The traders disregarded n
stronger market for foreign exchange , owing to
the more reassuring Washington advices regard
ing the Cuban question , and made decided rCTorta
to advance prices. Ilurllngton rota a pulnt on
purchases for Honton account , nnd there was
fair buying of the low-priced shares on orders ,
principally from the west. The exception to the
general trend of prices was the nmnracltc coul
group , which displayed heaviness. The strength
of the exchange market WHS duo to largo pur
chaser of bills liy prominent lower Wall sliuet
Interests , and the light offerings were IWUKC-
qucntly supplemented by supplies of recently
hoarded exchange. Actual rates rose slightly ,
but the advances In posted llgures were more
noteworthy. Chesapeake & Ohio was In good
Inquiry- , advancing to IS on orders for foreign
account , Induced by the recent mole f.V'iublc
tralllo returns and gossip of the prohibit1 < ! ic-
laratlon of n small dividend. The upwar.l m < ive-
mcnt was checkeJ soon after the . " .i I of the
llrst hour by a vigorous drive nt the high-
priced Industrials and n renewal of lluul Intlon In
the coalers. Ituslncss was less active
on the decline , but the premire
was very persistent. nnd eventually
material losses were recorded In n number of
Blocks. Chicago Gas sold off S'.i per cent ami
Leather preferred fell 2'i ' per cent on rumors
of n probable dlrcournglng annual report and
uncertainty regarding the disposition of the hold
ings of the late president ot ihe company. Ccr.-
FOlldntc.l On lost 3 points to 41 , and pinup
declines occurred In Sugar anil Tobacco. Dela
ware & Hudson wna very errallc al Ihe oul-
sct , but eventually dropped IK per cent to llOVi ,
rallying later to 11214. T.ic railway phnrcn were
well supported and rallied easily , partly on
covering. The closing was steady , with the net
chnrRL'si unimportant aside from the specialties.
The. bond market was strot'K and higher In
most Instances , seine of the Inactive Issues
cxcepted. Chicago & Northern 1'aclflc Ists , trust
receipts , developed activity and strength after
long continued nrglccl and rose 2 per cent to
42. The sales wcie fl,5S9CCO. The principal ad
vances rnnged from ! 5 to 3 % per cent , the last
In I ulsvlllc & Nashville 11. & A. ' Ms. The
more noteworthy declines extended from 1 to 3
per cent. Governments ruled generally linn on
lrans.icllons.of 17.COO.
The Kvcnlng Post's London financial cable
gram s ys : The slock markets weic steady to
day , but only moderately active. Americana were
very dull al the opening , but closed compara
tively firm. Some of the large houses report
that there has been buying of both American
shares and bends here on Investment account ,
certain descriptions of securities which for weeks
past have been very illlllcult to negotiate having
found n market. Proposals to reslorc the
finances of Pern have caused o sharp rise In
the debentures of the Peruvian corporations.
Franco Is said to be willing to grant a loan to
Peru , on the understanding that the latler shall
recognize Ihe claims of HIP corporation. The
Paris llourse was quiet and Eteady and the
llcriln market firm.

CATTL.K The receipts of cattle were
reasonably largo for tljls time of the week ,
though there were * not many morn than
one-half the number reporieil In yesterday.
A large proportion of all the cattle here
were cornfcd steers , the most of them half-
fat stuff that would have looked better In
the feed lots than In the stock yards , The
market on fat cattle was upon the whole
slow and drnggy and the whole forenoon
was consumed before anything like a clear
ance waa effected. Other markets nil came
lower , which made local buyers rather
bearish , while at the same time sali-jrncn
were nsklng gxiod stiff prltrin many cases
higher than yesterday. This difference In
opinion between the buyers and sellers was
the real cause of the dullness and not the
want of a good demand. The cattle , how
ever , kept selling , such as were attractive-
In the eyes of buyers bringing nbout the
same pricca ns yesterday and the less do-
slrablo and trashy .stuff selling lower.
Tht-rc was no very 'marked change In the
market for cow stnft , the ten or a dozen
loads here selllngfor the most part In good
season. The better grades were certainly
steady and ns high as J3.70 was paid for a
very choice bunch of heifers. The feeling
on the common to i medium grades was
easier.
Stockcrs nnd feeders were In much lighter
supply than yesterday und the market was
Just about steady. Speculators bad quite
a good many on' hand , but there- were a
number of country btlyois In , who cut down
the supply very materially. Representative
