Oper.liiK trades In Slay wheat were nt
from UP to He over yesterday's closing
llBiires. May rniifftd all the way from 9l'c
to Willie. In different parts of the pit , with
quite a Rood trade at those Ilpurcs. The
nmrkut wan helped cby the unexpected ad

W-IH a phasing surprise to
withstanding this Liverpool stretiKth tfle
iniirk t for a time after the opening ap
peared to be In the control of the bears.
Northwest receipts continued heavy , lln-
tii-apollH luid im'iuth reporting -132 ears to
il. iv airiilnst 310 cars last week and 299 a
wci > k ago. Chicago receipts were 22 eais.
The K.niHim crop report was very favorable

slile if thirty minutes the Llvorijoo ad
vance wan disregarded and prices declined.

for'a moment , fien turning again and not
Btopplng until 9Hiu had bueti quoted , which
occurred about 1 o'clock. During tain de-
i-llne there was quite free Helling for Bt.
Louis Interests , and local shorts also ma
terially Increased their outstanding lines.
A feat lire which 'had ' a tendency to Incrense
the weaklier was early ( Inures on the vis
ible supply Indicating a rather small de-
CToase next week. Hut before noon ttio mar.
lMt began to recover. Practically no In-
( Inentlnl support had been given during the
bet-amis rather over
d-cllne and the tmaikot
sold. At bottom pi-Ices brokers for the
l.cltpr Interests commenced bidding , anil
aided by a lot of late bullish news and
niiiiked'ntronpth In provisions and the
coarser grains , started an upward move
ment , wlili'h carried the May prleo to ! l.c.
C'loslng cables were Ilrm anil showed sub
stantial advances. Kxport clearances from
Atlantic ports were liberal , amounting in
wlu.it and ( lour to 511,000 bu. Itemizing
started afresh on the advance to fl.ic ami
n reaction to 9iy8e was the consequence , but
* near the close reports of a great demand
nt Minneapolis for low grades of wheat ,
owing to scarcity of better quality , and
reports of twenty-seven carloads taken for
export , caused renewed buying demand and
advanced May to 93tte. , the highest point
of the day'n range. It closed ( Inn at that
figure
Corn was moderately active and firm.
Country offerings were freer , but cables
were blpber and receipts light and there
was good buying , on the belief that higher
prices should prevail. The marUet was also
helped by the strength of oats. Shorts cov
ered freely late In the day. May ranged
1 from SVMiMtto ( to 2'Jc , nnd closed % c higher
Marko't for oatg was strong , nnd May
ngialn sold at the top price of the crop-
2IVic. liuylng was free and general all day ,
elevator Interests and shippers being prom
inent There was also considerable Invest
ment buying. The selling was principally
In the way of prollt-taklnfl. The urgent
cash demand was n bullish factor May
ranged from 24&c to 24Vic , and closed U H4c
Islnher at 2IV c. t , , , . , ,
Provisions sold at the highest prices of
the season. The market was weak on the

NliW YOniC , Feb. 4. The remarkable buoy
ancy of n few stocks lifted today's market out
of the slough of depression nnd closed the day
with net gains , although there were a few losses
In exceptional cises. Not changes were Bmall In
Iho general llt.1 . , but the pains In the lltl'.e group
of lenders were extraordinary. The Rrle stocks
showed the effect of some unusual demand nt
t.no opening of the maikt't and Ihe tlrst preferred
ended with n gain of over 2 points. Connected
In sumo way wltn this was the movement In Sus-
qtiehann.i & Western , which gained In force as
the day advnnced. The preferred showed n gain
of I points on the last transactions the common
Blo-k of 3i. ! There was nothlnw In the news of
ihr 1'iy tn pxnlnln these mwcmcnts. The Van-
derbllt stocks held thu center of tie > taKO on ac
count at Hie action of the New York Central di
rectors In authorizing an Icaue of llO > ) , fW0.01' col-
Intrral IVj per cent lionils to effect a consolida
tion with the Lake Shore , The formulated pi in
e.iii-ely agrees with the announcements which
have bi'en made. A quotation for the new bonds
when Issued was promptly established on the
exchange , W being bid nnd Si u ked. The price
of Lake Shore nnd of New York Central wavered
somewhat In the face of pront-taklng on the
nnnouncement , which bus been nmply dlscwntcd.
Hut Michigan Central bounded up buoyantly
over 4 iwlnts on the belief that It would ulti
mately Included In the consolidation In prog
ress. Canada Southern also benefited to the extent
of over n point. Not folk & Western preferred
lo up nlnul 2 points and was bought largely In
this market today for London account. This
slock wan affecto.I by the reported authority
granted to It to einstruct n uraiich through Vir
ginia to Wnelilnston nnd by the gem nil Improve
ment In Its financial condition. Great Northern
preferred advanced nn additional p ilnt this moin-
Ing , but reacted then 2 points tn Ifc ) and at the
close quoted 133 bid and 1.VJ asld-d. Manitoba ,
the subsidiary company , jumped 5 points to 133.
Tno late ttrcngth of the market brought a num
ber of gains In the general llsl up to about a
point nnd loduced or wiped out dfclines In u
number of stocks that had shi/wn curly heavltiOFS ,
notably Manhattan , Ilnltlmnre & O'.ita nnd Union
I'lflllu preferred. A feature of the day was the
continued advance. In foreign exchange. Imcoil
on the easy tone of the money market. There
was no very noticeable falling off In the activity
of the bond nnrket. No vtry important gains
were t-hown , but prices were lltm'.y held. Total
sale t3CIOCOO United States new Is were up
U I'M.
The Evening Post's London nnanclal cablegram
says : The stock market here was quiet today.
The feature was n sharp rise In Ornnd Trunk
and Canadian Pacific on cables lenorllng the
outbreak of n rate wnr. This , however. Is dis
believed here. It being understood that the illt-
puto merely refers to pmall sections of thn line ,
wlillo the ( Irani ! Trunk Is understood to be willIng -
Ing to submit any question of rates to arbitra
tion. Erles were bid for here on reports of a
It dividend on Krle preferred. The other mar
kets were featureless. The dearth of American
bills continues and cables report that fully 310.-
000,000 worth Is held In bank In New York

factory condition , th.lt Is the demand mus
good as compared to the receipts and the
trade was fali-Iy iietlve at prices not
materially chanced from yesterday.
Fat cattle wero'In 'good domund , but the
supply was extrcmaly .small , only a dozen
lo.uls of steers' being on sale. The prices
paid were Just about Mtt-tuly with yesterday
and everything was > old early. There was
nothing very good among the. offerings , the
best cattle here being only good enough to
bring $1.15. A bunch of very heavy stags
brought J3.CO and 13.70.
Cows and heifers were a'so In good de
mand and sold freely nt fully steady prices.

sold at tlrm prices. Thu offerings ' .voro
mostly all taken In good season.
Stackers and feeders so.d a little better to
day , the demand being moro pronounced and
thu movement more active. The country

( With Illustrations. )
In this story Mr. Haggard makes
a now demonstration of his won
derful power In the neld of pure
romance. Ho once moro boldly
lifts the curtain that hldca tlio fate
of nations dead nnd hurled la Iho
agca of which no record remains ,
except In the silent ruins oi their
cities.
ZlnVboe , an Inland' ' trading city
that flourished In the heart of
Africa 3,000 years ngo , and peopled
by the Phoenicians , Is the accno ot
the story. To thH city comes
PKaco Azlcl , o grandson of KlnR
Solomon , accompanied by Isaachar ,
n priest of Israel , znd Mctcm , a
Phoenician trader , who brings a
caravan of merchandise.
In Ellssa , daughter of Sakon , king
ot Zlmboo , the prince meets his
fato. King Ithohal , lord of many
legions of savogo warriors. Is al
ready a suitor fet her head. Ho
sues In true barbarian fashion ,
seeks to carry her off by force , and
lo foiled In the attempt by Prlnco
Azlel. The fitory tinfoldn lleelf
around the feud between the Prlnco
ot Israel and the savage King Itho
hal. Ellesa bis slvcn her heart
to Azlel , and loaths tbo barbarian
monarch. Isaachar , 'tho ' priest , la
determined that no prince of the
house of David shall wed a heathen
maiden , whoso people worship Baal.
As n result of his Intrigues , Kllssa
Is elected the high priestess of
This fixes an Impaesahlo religious
gulf between her and Azlcl , Their
passionate love seeks to BUrmoucit
all barrlere. Meantime , Ithobil
draws his huge array of savages
nroucil tlio fated city , nnd demand
ing UlUea. In marriage , prepares
to destroy It If ho la refused , How
Kllssa violates her oath as high
priestess and prepares to fly with
Azlcl ; how they ara both discovered
nnd threatened- with death by the
priests of Haal ; how , to save each
other , e.hc , by her right an the high
prlcBtrca of Haal , names him her
huaband , while ho runouncefl his
faith and offers Inccneo to Baal ;
how Itliobal'fl horde of savages
storms the walls of the city , and
both Azlel and Kllsoi fall Into lib
power ; and how , at last , Azlel eo-
capra with Ills life by Klltea'o
feigned Hiibmlcslon to Ithobal , olio
In turn escaping Ithohal by killing
herself. Is all told In Mr. Haggard's
moat faoelnatlng ranr.aer ,
The awful ceremonies In the tern-
plo ot Haal , the weird rltca In the
sacred grovco of Zlmboe , and the
barbaroua battle ECODCO of that far-
off time , are described with all the
author's marvelous wraith of Imag-
( native resource.
It la a story that will surely rack
as one of tlio great works of fiction
of J8SS.
