C'HIC'AOO , Jan. 13. Wheat today , al
though opening strong nt nn advance ,
turned weak and closed weal : at a li-lllo
over a cent decline. Weak cloning cables
xtarttd llriiildnilon , which was Indulgid In
to an extent hardly warranted by the gen-
Drnl Munition. Corn and oats were ooirc-
Bpondlngly weak und lost about le each ,
but provisions managed to ucoro u slight
ndvnncc.
In whi.-at the firm opening \uis the result
of the steadiness of Liverpool and light
northwestern receipts. The llrst cablegram
limited Ud advance. In futures nml n Inter
omj pivo prices IIH " ! idiilKhtr , or isuirly
double yesterday'H advanchero. . NorthWestern -
Western nnd local receipts were moderate.
Chicago only not eighteen carloads of
wheat , agnlnst IW a year ago. anil Mimic-
upollH and Uulutli reported ' . ' 13 cnrs , against
IW u week ago and 41U the corresponding
day of the year before. Later In thu day all
but ' , id of thu Liverpool advance was re
ported lost , and prices started downward.
Opening prices for-May vete from Sl'.jo to

weakness which supervened \\as n rumor
regarding the Hour trade , which It wan mid
was everywhere dull. Minneapolis reported
only 12,1X0 bbls. of Hour sold yesterday and
Milwaukee reported Mi.OJO bbls of Minne
apolis Hour stored there and 100 cnrs more
on track waiting storage. The light sen-
bo.ird clearances of w.ient and llour 111,103
lli. encouraged Helling , and llrm foreign
markets at advanced quotations did not
help the buying. The bears were on top.
and If they bought on the breaks they put
the wheat out short ugaln on the rallies
when there was one and nt lower prices
when the decline continued. In other words ,
It was a scalper's maikct. May dually de
clined to 79c and closed weak at from " 'JHc"
to 79' < ic.
Corn hnd n very quiet session , with prleos
almost altogether dependent on w.icat. It
was Inclined to llrmness an long as wheat
Ii6hl up Its end of the speculative trade , but
weakened icndlly when that mntket net the
example. Hrndstrcct's reported a visible In
crease of 1,673.000 bu. May opened about Ho
higher nt Glc. sold at from 2I'ic to 2ITie.
then weakened to 241 c , closing easy nt from
2I'o to 21e.
Outs opened steady to firm on b.ul weather
reports from the west and through sympa
thy with wheat ; the latter Inlludico wan
stronger by far than the former and tri
umphed on In thu session , causing a decline
In prices. There was a good disposition to
buy on the part of the shorts and several
lines , both large nnd small , never evened
up. May opened unchanged nt ISftc. sold
between ISftc and lSc , closing easy at the
latter price.
Provisions ruled strong nnd nlosed thnt
way , the only thing on the floor to dn that.
The market was dull during the forenoon ,
hut livened up under the Improved demand ,
w.ilch ciinu * mostly from shorts. The early
weakness of the hog market caused a slight
opening decline In prices , hut this was soon
overcome. At the close 'May pork was n
Bhudo higher at from $7.90 to J7.92VMay :
"
lard a shade higher at from $1.05 to"l.07'- ,
and May ribs 2&e higher at $1.10.

CIIEYDXNE. Wyo. , Jan. 13. ( Special. ) A
brief retrospective View of the Industrial and
commercial situation In Wyoming for the
year 1806 Is very encouraging , in every Im
portant branch of Industry In the state there
has been an Improvement of conditions and
the outlook for the year1 1S97 In mining , ag
riculture , stock raising , railroad building
and In general business Is very promising.
Nor Is this Improved condition merely ap
parent. Actual figures show It to bo real.
The annual report of the State Hoard of
Equalization , which will be Issued during
the coming scssloon of the legislature , will
show the valuations , as returned for aEaecu-
ment In the state , to bo tor 1SOC as follows :
Railroads j 7n330I7
Lnnd and Improvements fi.SjMlfl
Town lots 643\K3
Live stocl : 7 2.V ) ( K3
Other property 2,947,030
Total $30,0:8,624
This Is a gain In assessed valuation of
J189.7BO over the year 1805 , and a gain of
$830,653 over the year 1894. The year 1KIG
shows a gain of $ .121,629 In tlio value of
railroad property In the state over 1895 ; a
gain of 1259,415 In the value of cattle , and a
gain of $554,478 In the value of sheep. The
only material loss In 1890 over 1S95 Is In the
value of horses , this being $510,290.
It can safely be said that 'the general
business of Wyoming Is on a sounder and
moro substantial basis than ever before In
the history of the state. The cattle busi
ness Is divided among the small ranchmen
of the state , and Is no longer conducted upon
capital borrowed at high rates of Interest
from eastern and European sources. The
Ehecp business Is In the bands of actual res ) ,
dents of the- state , nnd Is , In the main , con
ducted without speculation and with but
little borrowed capital. Mining and pros
pecting for precious metals are being pushed
vigorously In many portions of the state , and
the Investments nnd profits are mainly held
by Wyoming people.
The vote cast In the recent election was
nearly 4,000 larger than In any preceding
election , and Indicates that the population
of the state Is upwards of 90,000 , a gain of
nearly 30 per cent slnco 1890.
Under all thcso conditions. It Is not only
probable , but certain , that Wyoming Is about
entering upon a period of prosperity , built
upon such solid foundation that It Is certain
to bo permanent.

Captain Oeorgo ; S , . Anderson , superintendent
of the Yellowstone ! National park , Is col
lecting a carload -.of wild animals to ship
to the National.Zoological park at Washing
ton , lie now has six elk , six nntelopo , four
beaver and two b'lack bear cubs. Super
intendent Andcrson'Ircports that game , with
the exception of'blBOn , continue to Increase
In the park. During the spring months tlio
elk range through ' .the park by thousands.
Deer wander ttuqufili the military post In
great numbers. , often passing a few feet
from the scntrl/p and men about the garri
son. Herds of mountain sheep and antelope
are wintering /jn Jount Everett and show
a great Increase , /lumbers over last year.
Coyotes have uccpmo so numerous 'that the
scouts employed at tha pool have been au
thorized to kill fibmb of them. A big corral
was built last .fajl'jn which It was Intended
to enclose a Jrl rtlAn of the buffalo herd.
Only eight of Ujri-Jierd entered the corral
and thcso were ftliowed to escape , In the
liopo that a larger number would enter. The
main herd did not winter In their usual
place and Imvo scattered In small bunches
over a largo portion of the park. Altogether
there are not more than fifty buffalo left
In the park and It la a doubtful problem
whether thcss can be saved. The forces of
nature and tlio bands of man seem to be
against them nn'd their total extinction seems
but a question of a short time.

CATTLE The receipts of cattle were
much lighter than a week ago , but still
there was a fair run.
The market so far as fat cattle were
concerned was far trom satisfactory.
After the decline yesterday salesmen wore
hoping ror a stcaOy mfukot at least , but
their hopes were not realized. lleuorts
from all points were discouraging and at
the same tlmo the quality of the cattle
here was not such as to stimulate free
buying. The most of the cattle hero were
only half fat , and not a very good kind.
As a result the market was slow , and from
wink to lOc lower.
Cows and heifers were In very light
supply , only about eight loads being on
sale , nnd the market was llrm and active.
Everything wns cleaned up In good season.
Stoekcrs and feeders were also active
and fully steady In splto of the unfavorable
condition of the- market on fat cattle. Rep
resentative sales :

Seventy-five rcsldcr..s living In the vicinity
of Twenty-fifth nnd M streets have sent a
petition to the city council asking that an.
are light bo plnced nt the intersection ot
Twenty-fifth nnd M ntreets. Members bt
the council committee on public lights admit
that a light U needed at thnt point , but
owing to the present condition of the lightIng -
Ing fuml It Is doubtful If any more llghta
will bo ordered in for some time. ICuter-
talnments or meetings are frequently held
at the High school , which In near by. nnd
nearly every one admits that the light IH
a necessity. Chairman Vansant of the public
lighting committee , said last night that ho
would not recommend a light at this point
until -the fund way In n condition to war
rant It. He hoped , however , by spring to

SlifiMl ii f TrnliiH In Hi-
City Attorney Montgomery Is to draft
an ordinance regulating the speed of rail
way trains through the city , the maximum
speed to be ten miles an hour. An ordinance-
was passed by the city council In 188S pro
hibiting the running of trains through the
city at a higher rate of speed than eight
miles an hour. Within the last month or
two this ordinance wns declared veld 'by the
state supreme court , hence the necessity for
passing another one. The supreme court
found that the old ordinance had been pub-
lUhed In the olllclal paper of the city only
once , when It should have been printed alx-
times , and for this reason the ordinance-
was knocked out.
