NEW VOIIK. Feb. . The stock market con
tinued to feel the Influence of the bear npRrcs-
nlons on the Industrlnl slocV.lt , but the general
list did not respond so sharply to this depression
nnd rnlhvny shares held their own fairly well
In the face of n market tending downward ,
That the market Is largely Riven over to the
Industrials Is shown by thi < fact that consider
ably more than half the total chorea traded
In were those of n few of the high-priced In
dustrials and more Onn one-third of the sales
were of Sugar stock alone , The movement re
sulted In a decline In Sugar of Z'.t per cent ;
Tobacco , 2 % per cent ! Rubber , S % per cent !
Rubber' preferred , 2i per cent , nnd Leather , 1
per cent. All of there stockn suffered In com
mon from the continued effect of the legislative
Inviiitlgntlon of trusts ( till pending In this city.
Sugar wns also markedly affected by further reports -
ports from Washington that the protection on
Sugar was likely to be Impaired by approaching
tariff changes. Whatever affected Sugar Imme
diately nnd markedly nffcttcd all the ot.icr
Industrial stocks by sympathy. Tobacco was
sold by Inside Interests. The trading even In
there nctlve Irultfilrlnl stocks wns nlmust wholly
professional , nnd the market for other securi
ties was stagnant and seemingly waiting for
developments , though of what , Is not clear to
any observer. If the wnltlng Is for co : Kress
InrlfT changes , It Is strnnge that only properties
which will be Immediately affected by thotc
changes nro dealt In In any volume. With
money n glut on the market , however , nnd spec
ulation almost nt a standstill , It Is certain that
Investors arc waiting for some development.
There were signs today that the same cr.cour-
agement was fell over the general trade outlook
nnd over the pnnpects for railroads. In tplte
of the dcprccslHK Influence on the market the
drive nt the Industrials nnd the stagnation In
the London market over the European political
situation , which might have " been reflected
here , the railways exhibited cor.Bldernble firm
ness , nnd even advanced fractionally early In
the day. The enormous sale of print cloths nt
Fall Hlvcr yesterday way no small factor In
the hardening tendency of the general IVt. This'
hardening tendency In Industrials nnd railways !
were nlto somewhat affected by the news of the
disruption of the St. Louis Eaitbound Traffic
association , by the notification wltndrnwnl
received from the Cleveland , Cincinnati , Clilengo
& St. Ixnils. The losses In the fnllwny Us
were Irregular , nnd only fractional , except In
the case of Kansas & Texas , which lost n point
Lake Shore win a notable exception to the
general trend of prices nnd Improved 1JJ per cent
Other special movements of stocks were : Man
hattan , which rose l',4 ( later receding 1 psr.cent
on expectation of benelllB to the property fron
the proposed plan to have the llrooklyn elcvntci
nnd surface cnrs across the Prooklyn bridge
The bonds of the Urooklyn Elevated inllrond

Steel told down 114 Per cent on rumors of con
Illct In the management and the loss sallsfnc
lory conditions In that trndc , but later recovered
on ofllclal statements dcnylrg any cor.lllct In th
management or that nny startling developments
would occur at the annual meeting tomorrow
Consolidated Gas yielded 1 per cent on report
that n bill was Introduced nt Albany for nn In
vcstlgatlon to ascertain the feasibility of city
ownership of gas plants. New York , Cleveland
Cincinnati , Cnlcngo & St. Louis second preferrei
declined 25i per cent from the preceding sale on
liquidation , caused by the passage of the dlvl
dcnd on the first preferred stock. Heading wn
more nctlve an-1 hut % per cent nnd Itcaillrg
firsts preferred on the .unsettled trade condition
and the liquidation In the higher-priced coalers
which move In common with the general list
The closing of the market was weak , with sllgh
changes cither way In the prominent railways.
The bond market gercrally displayed nn 1m
proved tendency , nnd nlthough heaviness was
apparent In some of the bpcculntlve bonds , the
general trend of prices wns toward the hlsl
plane , with changes very Insignificant In some
Investment properties. The tales were 51,072,000
The government bond market showed a firm tone
on Increased dealings , aggregating JS3.COO.
The EveningPost's London financial cable
gram says : "The stock markets were idle to
day. In view of the general settlement whlcl
will commence tomorrow. The tone was flat
The political disturbances nre entirely checking
business , though leading ? financial opinions do TO
regard the situation ns serious , nnd consols
sold ntt 112H- Americana were steadier than the
otl.'cr markets , but lifeless. The Paris market
opened steady , but closed flat. The best In
that' market was' weak. "

CATTLE Tha receipts of cattle-were the
largest of any-day since Thursday of last
week. The market ns .1 whola was a little
slow , and in that respect not altogether
satisfactory. IVie tendency of the market
was downward , which was another feature
that could not be regarded us pleasing to
the selling Interests. \
While the total -receipts of cattle were
nbovo the average , the offerings ot corn-
fed beeves were comparatively light , less
than twenty loads belhp on sale.
Yesterday's Chlcaso market was bad and
buyers put on their bear clothes this morn-
Ing. The light receipts were to some ex :
tent an clement of strength , but that was
more than olfset by Ida veer Duality of the
cattle on sale 1C flnauy resolved Itsell
Into a slow , dragfcyi market that was In
most cases D10c" tpw'of. Buyers , however ,
claimed that whllq thb sales might look
lower "on paper , tfie'.quallty of the cnttle
was poor enough to make up the difference
and that the market wns In reality not
enough lower to bef worth quoting. ,
The best grades of * , cows and he.fera
wore about steadi'l but ti.itf common and
medium kinds were easier. The offerings
were larger than usual ; and while the de
mand wns very fair , 'It-was some time , be
fore a clearance vriia .effected.
The Btocker andifccder trade was nctlve
and the better gnffles. "at least , were fully
steady. In 'some ' < "iseg salesmen thought
the" common kind wera-not nulte so stron ; ;
as at the close of. last'week , lleprcsenta-
tlvo sales :

SIIill'l'lV I.MI'XOVKO AS STOVI3H
ItciiuM ul of tinI'llli from the Corn-
Klnlk unti UN ICIl'ci-l. *
WASHINGTON. Keb. 0. In a btillctli
from the ABdciiltural ilcpartnienl "A New
Com Product" la discussed as follows :
This material Is a by-product obtained In
Ihe separation ot the pith from corn stalks.
It Is understood that the corn stover Is
stripped of its leaves and husks nnd then
put through a mill , by which , with" the aid
of winnowing thu light pith Is separated.
About 'ono pcund nf pith IK unit ! to bo ob
tained from fourteen or fifteen pounds of
corn stover. Tills pith , It is asserted , can bo
used for various purposes in the arts on ac
count of Its great absorptive power for
waters H has been suggested for use In
building anrored vessels , In cofferdams and
fflrts , and for taking the place of cork In
various "ways , as In the manufacture of
linoleum among other thlnga.
The rcfusi ; after the pith has been sepa
rated from corn stalks Is ground line and-ls
suggested for feeding animals. It Is evi
dently dried at some stage of the process ,
as samples analyzed contain only from 9 to
10 per cent of water , \vlu-rcas fleld-i-ured
corn stover contains something over -10 par
cent. In composition the dry matter con
tains about O.C per cent more protein than
the average for corn stover and about 1.1
per cent more than the average for corn
stalks > without leaves or huslcs.
The only feeding trials thus far reported
with the ncv by-product were , made at the
Maryland Expsriment utatlon ( Bulletin No.
' 13) ) . A number o digestion experiments
wcna made with steers , comparing the di
gestibility of the "new corn product" vlth
a material purporting' to he corn stover
groumt to a similar mechanical condition ,
and with shredded cornfcdder. Hath of the
latter materials were somewhat below the-
average composition. It appears from the
results that the "now corn product" " Is di
gested to a larger extent than the "ground
stover" or shredded corn fodiler , either whoa
thcae wcro fed dry , moistened with water
or steamed. The difference in this respect
was quite marked. This naturally Increaoes
the feeding value of the material , giving a
larger proportion of digestible nutrients psr
ton. A statement of the amount of digesti
ble nutrients In 100 pounds as compared with
some other fodders la given her-2 :
"New corn product" ( with 9.22 per cent ofi
Corn Ftover twlth 40,5 per cent of water .
Corn fodder , field cured ( wlt ; > 12.2 per cent of
Hay from mixed Krucscf ( with 12. S per cer.t of
Eliminating the dlfleronco In water con
tent , there remains a difference of only about
0.8 pounOa of digestible protein between the
now product and corn stover , In favor of the
former. The material IK considerably lower
in digestible protein than most kinds of hay
( except timothy ) and does not begin to com
pare with hay containing eomo clover. As
the author of the , Maryland Station liulleUn
iays , the "new corn product" is essentially
a carbonaceous feeding stuff , as distin
guished from nitrogenous , and cannot be
used as a substitute for such -materials as
whrat bran.
Farmers buy the nitrogenous feeds , as
wheat bran , gluten feeds , cottonseed meal ,
etc. , but do not as a rule buy the carbon
aceous foods , which theyproduce In sufficient
quantity en the farm. "Coarso fodder" . or
"roughage , " to which cli > ss the "new corn
product" belongs , Is too bulky and must sell
for too lov.a price , to admit of shipping any
considerable distance. Other waste products
of the nitrogenous class contain all the way
from 10 to 30 or 40 per cent of. protein , most
of them between 1" and 20 per rent. Hence
this "new corn product" should not be con
fused with the numerous by-products rich
in nitrogenous matorlala ( protein ) which are
on the mirlcet. It Is understood that none
of the material Is yet on the market and
that the factories are not yet rczdy for mak
ing It. It remains to be Been whether the
product ultimately put nn the market on a
largo tcalo will have the composition and
feeding value which were found for the ear-
load studied. The matter Is to bn regarded
as In an experimental stage. Steers fed upon
It with the addition of grain made EoniPWhnt
larger gains than when fed on shredded corn
Fodder , but It has not been tested with couu
or horses. It is in more convenient form
for feeding and IB fed with less waste than
? 3rn fodder. The proposition has been made
to mix other by-products with It and put It
m thi market as a balanced ration.
At present It may bo cald that It Is adry ,
. oirso fdtlder , probably somewhat morn val-
.rnblo for feeding than corn fodder or corn
itovcr ,

* As additional articles recovered from the
Davis hoiiio onVcst Jackson street are
being Identlllcd as stolen property , It bo *
comes inoi-o and more evident that the gang
under nrrest nt the present time operated
In this city nnd vicinity for months pnst
without arousing In thu minds of the pollco
thu lc\isl suspicion , and the authorities wcro
absolutely at a loss to whom to assign the
burglaries that wcro being committed ,
It Is becoming also more nnd more ap
parent that It was luck Instead of dctcctlvo
astuteness that led to the discovery of the
gang and the < lcn , No effort whatever was
made by Clilct of Detectives Cox anil hU
band of sleuths to locale any ot the stolen
property until driven by the expose of The
Ilco to make some display of activity. Then
search warrants \vero l&iucd for half a
dozen places in the city limits that liavo
been known for months to bc.tr questionable-
and suspicious records , .Alter several ot
these warrants had been served , the Davis
homestead was visited , nnd then the dis
covery was made , Accident figured largely
in bringing about the fln.-.l rciiilt.
Another step in the case was token Mon
day , and the result bears out the hereto
fore mentioned Impression. A warrant was
Usued for the premises ot the family of Bd
Johnvou , one of the prisoners under arrest ,
whu has also given the names ot I > M Miller
and Ed Willis. These premises are located
near Twenty-ninth and Chailes streets. In
a barn there was found a quantity of prop
erty that had been stolen a long time ago.
One of the articles was a valuable saddle.
Tills was Identified yesterday at the pollco
station by H. D. Bassclt of 1513 South Twen
ty-sixth street. The loss of tills piece ot
property was reported to the pollco on Sep
tember 5 , last year. The robbery itself oc
curred a day or two before that. At tha
samu time some robaa were taken. These
were also recovered. The boty In another
old robbery was elbe found in the Ijarn. It
consisted of a couple of horne blankets and
a hnriic a. These were the results of two
raids upon the barn of V ) . G. Doano at 310
N'orlh Forty-first street. The llrst was reported -
ported on December 17. the other on January
17. Mr. Doane yesterday swore out complaints - "
plaints against Charles Holge , Ed Willis
and Charles Davis for this larceny. Another
saddle that was found In the 'barn ' was yesterday -
torday identified by David Heed , who lives
on the Dodge street road , West Omaha pro
duct , lie stated that it was stolen from
'
him about four weeks ago. The saddle IB
claimed by Johnson's father. In the field
was also discovered a harness which Pcto
O'Hourke , who lives west of Forest Lawn
cemetery , has Identified as belonging to him.
Ho says that it was stolen from his barn
something over n week ago. In the property
that was found in the Davla house was some
that had been stolen In the city over n month
ago. Some portions whl.-h had been stolen
In the cuitittry precincts were reported to
the local department oven earlier than that.
Fiom this it Is judged lhat the gang has
bi > en operating In this vicinity at least two
months , if not longer. It was entirely pos
sible for the members to have disposed ot
some of their spoils.
Davis has lived' on Jackson street for
about four months , nolng there shortly after
ho was released from the penitentiary. The
residents In the. neighborhood considered
that the family was of a suspicious char
acter and Were convinced that they were'
thieves. Davis is said to bo still 111 and
therefore he , Is allowed to remain nt hla
residence. A couple o ? officers are on guard
over him In order that he may not make
his escape. As peen as ho recovers euffl-
elently he will bo removed to the police sta
tion. It is thought that this can bo done
by Friday afternoon , as the cases that have
been filed against him are set , for trial on
that day.
Four cases have BO far been started. In
each Davis Is named as one of the defend
ants. The1 other members of the gang are
defendants in some two or three of them.

SAN FHANCISCO , Feb. . ! . The powiler
war which has been waged on this coast for
nearly five years Is over. During that tlmo
the contcnUiiu ; companies , 'It Is estimated ,
have let between $1,000,000 and $1,500,000
In profits slip from them anil the holders
of stocks have gone without dividends. For
several months , however , negotiations lookIng -
Ing for peace have been in progress. They
resulted yesterday in the adjustment of all
difficulties and the attorneys for thrco com
panies interested were Instructrd to draw
up the final papers for signature. Upon the
general proposition of an agreement as to
the prices of dynamite , the Jmlson , Califor
nia ami Giant companies have been in ac
cord. They manufacture over 15,000,000
pounds of high explosives annually. An ad
vance on this product of Z cents a pound is
anticipated. This , It is judged , will not bo
sufUclcnt to Invlto oulsido competition ami
'It ' will cnablo the manufacturers to dlvldo
between them $300,000 or $320,000 yearly.
The diillctilty was to harmonize on black
powder , of which thcro were two producers.
The arrangement had Is that the California
company Hlinll pay the Giant an annual sub
sidy of $10,000 to close It * black powder
works and shall fill CO per cent of the Glant'a
black powder contracts at Hie low ngurcu
at which they were made , ranging from $1
to $1.30 a keg , The yearly output is about
85,000 kegs and the advanca In price Is ex
pected to ho from 25 to ' 10 con la a keg.
Schedules for. bath dynamlto and black pow
der will be figured out and submitted to the
three com'panlcK for their approval at the
tame t'lmo the details of the combine , pre
pared by the attorneys of the contracting
parties are placed before the boards of direc
tors for final action ,
