CinCAOO. Feb. . Cold WMthM nd
growing bullish sentiment resulted In bet
ter prices In all pita on the Board of Trade
today. May wheat closed with a net gain
of May corn, 11Mic, and May
oats. Sfvttc. Provisions closed 5S7ttc to
10c higher. ...
Aside from the early weekly statistics
the news of the wheat pit wae bullish.
Northwestern and local receipts were
amally Northwestern elevator stocks were
decreased; there was a fair demand and
cablea were silently up to start, though
their early advance wae loet. The cold
' weather and storms threatened a slower
movement and Increased feeding. The
coarse grains, especially corn, were strong
and reflected a good deal of their power
In wheat. The monthly report from Wash
ington gave a poor showing for the condi
tion of the winter crop. Shorts became
nervous and set to covering, and May,
which opened a shade lower to a shitde
higher at 78c to lHc, advanced. The visi
ble supply was reported decreased 1.444,
( bnshels snd sent May to 78c. Toward
the end of the session realising eased the
tone slightly. The ruling feeling was free
throughout the day, and May closed firm,
HVkc up at WaffSHc The absence of
any outside Influence In this market led
to a nulet trade. Receipts were nineteen
cars, two of contract grade; Minneapolis
and Duluth reported 870 cars, msklng a
total for the three points of 3 cars,
against 318 last week and 3.017 for two
davs last year. Primary receipts were
467.000 bushels, against 1,136,000 bushels for
the two days a year ago. World's ship
ments are 8.284,000 busnels. compared with
7.3K3.0TK) bushels last week and 7,312,000
bushels a year ago. The on-passsge state
ment showed an Increase of 2,652,000 bush-
. Seahjoard clearances In wheat and
1 mr equalled 630.mo bushels. The sea
1 onrd reported lethargy In exports. Re-
nrts that the cold weather would con
tinue for some time Infused considerable
strength Into corn and set bears a guess
ing as to the -wisdom of their attitude
toward the market. Cables were firm and
receipts were very small. An early In
vestment demand began to spring up and
shorts lost heart and covered freely.
There waa little com for sale early, and
May, after' opening Wna higher, sold
tip ltc to -64M.C The visible supply bulle
tin read "unchanged" In corn, the first
time In the history of the board in such a
connection. Cash business was restricted
bv light offerings. Southwestern marketa
were bulllnh. Altogether corn showed a
strong feeling. Late In the day the ad
vanced prices brought some realising and
a consequent easier feeling. May closed
strong, Kj'I'iC up, at 63"t3Mc Receipts
were only 62 cars.
Traders in oats kept near shore. They
feel that when something does happen
again In oats it will be decided and they
ere., not anxious to be caught again as
they were caught last week. Consequently
the oats market waa small, though It fol
lowed corn and showed aome strength.
"May opened well up, but fluctuations were
of a narrow range. The close for May
was Arm, KfMrC higher at 44fcc He
ceplts were only 54 cars.
A, better cash trade than has existed In
f revisions for some time, together with
he grain strength, helped prices well. The
opening was lower on increases In stock,
but pork had a good demand and advanced
other products. May pork closed 10c
tip at I15 87W; May lard. 674c higher at
18.46, and May ribs 6P7tto up at $8.46.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
80 cars; corn, 70 cars; oats, 96 cars; hogs,
84.000 head.

MOVEMENTS OP STOCKS AND BONDS.

NEW YORK. Feb. S. The professional
element among the stock operators showed
a rather hopeful spirit this morning and
started with some confidence to buy the
transcontinental railroad stocks. The move
ment seemed to be based upon an assump
tion that the supreme court would hand
down Its decision today In the Northern
Securities company esse, for within halt
an hour after the time for the sitting of
the court the morning's gstns In tnee
stocks had been wiped out. The dealings
In southern Pacific were especially large
and gave evidence of operations by a spec
ulative pool. The buying of the stock is
ostensibly based upon the expectation of
an early refunding of large Issues of bonds
bearing a high rate f Interest and which
mature In the next few years. The finan
cial district was flooded with optimistic
estimates of the current earnings of the
road. The price was carried at one time
1 over Saturday, but It fared little better
tnan the other Pacifies In the reactionary
movement and closed with a net gain of
. There were heavy dealings also In
St. Paul and Union Pacific but these gains
were entirely wiped out. Efforts were made
to revive the market by Inaugurating a
movement In the coalers. Lackawanna
spurted 14, little stock coming out. Ru
mors were revived that the company's
stock was to be doubled,- with valuable
rights to present holders. Dealings In
Amalgamated Copper were on an enormous
scale, tne number of shares sold being
about the largest for a single day In the
history of the stock. It waa under pres
sure throughout,, with occasional rallies,
and In the day fell more than 3 points
under Saturday, closing with a net loss of
2. Profit taking waa an Important ele
ment In the weakness of the stock, but
there was a disposition to discredit recent
rumors of a combination with other cop
per producers. The weakness of this stock
did not affect the early rise In the trans-
continentals, Dut its depressing influence
gained force later In the day. The favor
able statement of net earnings Tor Decem
ber was responsible for the strength In
the Minneapolis, St. Paul ft Sault Ste.
Marie, stocks, the common rising 2 and
the preferred 8. with final reactions of
sbout a point. The weakness in Metropol
itan was attributed to reports of an early
retirement' from business of one of the
company's large capitalists. The large In
crease In loans by the bank last week was
the subject of much discussion, without
throwing much light upon uses for which
the borrowed money was designed. The
fact that nearly $10,000,000 of the Increase,
or nearly half the Increase, was made by
two of the leading banks In the clearing
house which are affiliated with the finan
cial power which originated most of the
great combinations last year, encouraged
the supposition that large syndicate oper
ations and possibly new projects are In
hand. The sudden and unexpected declar
ation and disbursement of a 1 per dent
dividend on Northern Securities stock
might account for part of the loan, al
though the public Is Ignorant what per
cent of this stock has been exchanged
for constituent companies. Subscriptions
to a number of new railroad bond Issues
might also be responsible. The money
market continued easy, notwithstanding
the expectation that the outward move
ment of gold Is to be renewed. In fact,
the ease of the money market la the per
missive ractor in tne export or goin.
Railroad bonds were moderately active
and Irregular. Total sales were $4,425,000.
United States bonds were all unchanged at
tne last can.
The Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says: As far as busi
ness was concerned. American stocks
might have been shut out of the exchange.
Half the dealers did not even bargain,
but after the close of business New York
bid prices up sharply In the street, partic
ularly Southern Pacific, Erie and Atchison,
as is supposed in anticipation of a favor
able decision in the Northern Securities
com Dan y suit. Copper statistics show In
creases of stock of 1,624 tons and in sup-
glles of 17,200 tons. Rio Tintos were firm,
ut reacted sharply to 46 on the absence
of Parts support due to the storm.

CATTLE Cattle receipts were fairly
liberal for the first day of the week and
as the demand on the part of packers waa
not particularly good a sjow and weak
market resulted. Buyers did not seem to
care whether they got many cattle or not
and their bids In most cases were consid
erably lower than last week. SeHers were
asking steady prices, so that the morning
was well advanced before many cattle
went over the scales. '
There waa about the usual sprinkling of
beef steers in the receipts this morning,
but buyers were slow about starting out
and their bids were so much lower than
the prices paid last week that sellers would
not out loose. In some eases sellers got
what they considered close to steady prices
and sold out, but as a general thing sales
men were not satisfied with the prices
offered and It was late before buyers and
sellers got together on terms. The situa
tion could probably- best be described by
calling It a slow and weak market. The
quality of the cattle as a whole was noth
ing extra, which perhaps had something to
do with the Indifference of buyers.
The cow market waa also devoid of ac
tivity, but still the prices were not so
much different from last week when It
came to the better grades, such as sell
from 84.00 up. Those kinds sold without
much difficulty - at right around steady
prices, but medium grades and ca liners
changed hands slowly and in most cases
sold a little lower than they did last week.
Cow buyers acted much the same as the
steer buyers, in that they did not seem to
be anxious for supplies.
There waa not very much change In the
prices paid for bulls,- especially for the
better grades, but they did not sell any
too readily. Veal calves sold at right
around steady prices, where the quality
waa satisfactory. Stags were slow sale
and weak. .
Desirable grades Of Blockers and feeders
showing flesh aa well as quality brought
Just about steady prices. Common kinds
of all weights, however, were neglected
and were hard to move at any price. Thin
stockers In particular were neglected and
prices were. If anything, lower.

HOGS There was a liberal run
of hogs
here today -for a Monday and buyers at
tempted to pound the market and started
out bidding 6c lower than Saturday's gen
eral market. Sellers, however, did not cut
loose and packers had to raise their hands
and the bulk of the hogs sold at Just about
steady prices. As the morning advanced
trading was more active and the last end
of the market could be quoted steady to
strong and practically everything was sold
by the middle of the forenoon, although
the market waa slow in starting. The bulk
of the heavyweight hogs sold from 26.16 to
$6.25 and as high as $6.85 was paid. The
medium weights sold largely from $6.80 to
$6.10 and the lighter loads went from. $5 90
down. Representative sales

SHEEP There was a fairly liberal run
of sheep and lambs here today as com
pared with the receipts of late, but the de
mand waa equal to the occasion and so
faa as the good stuff was concerned the
market waa active and steady. Buyers
were all out early and It was not long be
fore practically all the desirable grades
were out of first hands. The quality was
good on the average, but still there was
nothing fancy, ana for that reason the
prices do not look as high on paper as they
would If there had been more prime stuff
on sale. The common grades of both sheep
and lambs were a tittle neglected, but still
they sold at right around steady prices.

Ssaall Articles oa Free List
Which Moots Defeat.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3. Tbs ways and
means committee of the bouse by unani
mous vote today ordered a favorable report
ta the war tag reduction bill.
A surprise occurred when Representative
Babcock (rep) offered his bill largely re
ducing duties on tbs steel schedule and
placing small articles on the free list, a
an amendment to the tea repeal section.
Tbs amendment was' defeated.' I to 7.
Messrs. Babcock gad Tawnsy god nil tha
democrats vottog la th affirmative.
The closeness of the vote on Mr. Bab-
cock's amendment reducing the steel sched
ule caused much comment. Messrs. New
lands and Cooper, democrats, and Long snd
Hopkins, republicans, were absent. It wan
explained on behalf of tbo absent members
tbat they were either out or the city or de
tained at Important committee meetings
elsewhere and that the Babcock motion
was entirely unexpected.
Tha Cuban reciprocity question also cams
up unexpectedly. Representative Steels of
Indiana moving a 26 per cent concession
on Cuban sugar. The motion waa with
drawn after a brief exchange of comment.
Tha motion of Mr. Steele for a 35 per
cent reduction on Cuban sugar - was re
garded as either factious and as a rejoinder
to tha unexpected motion on the steel
chedule. ...
Representative Robertson, who Is opposed
to reduction on Cuban sugar, was among
those who voted for the Babcock amend
ment. Following this Mr. Steele made his
motion, and a sharp, but good-natured par
ley occurred between. Mr. Steele and Mr.
Robertson. The latter suggested that If say
motion on sugar was to bo mads Mr. Steele
should broaden his proposition so as to in
clude raw and refined sugars, placing them
all on the free list. Mr. Steele did not press
the motion and after Its withdrawal the
Incident waa looked upon as humorous
rather than as 4 serious move toward deal
ing with the Cuban question.
