Wheat was rather less active, and averaged Hc
lower than yesterday, though firm at the decline,
as New York was reported stronger, and our re-
ccipts continue to be under tho average for this
speculative, and that almost entirely from tho
short interest, rs there is no immediate need for
wheat, and no fear that wo will not hare enough
Of it by aud by, though for several days to come
NO may receive but little. Hence there is not
much desire to invest, though the impression
see1ns to be general that higher prices must pre-
vail in the summer. It is noteworthy that we

THE NOON MEETINGS.


Probably mover in tho history OF the Y. III. G.
4. Of Chicago have the meetings been more
deeply interesting than now. Hotwithstandin 6
the severely cold weather Of tho past week, the
attendance at the noon prayer-meetings has
been large. Many Of the churches OF the city
hayo been represented by members who found
in this hour Of prayer new strength for their
dnily duties. The reports from the various
parts Of the city show that v ork Of graco is
quietly and steadily going on. An interesting
feature Of the meetings anvo been the reports Of
strangers from distant towns and cities Of the
country. From pittsburg and Boston, from Col
or ado and Nevada, and the mines ef
California have came storios Of
the wonderful working Of God,
grace. A large number Of requests for prayer
have been presented, and accounts given Of con-
versions in connection Herewith. The meetings
nro held at II N. in the Methodist Church
Block, corner Washington and Clark streets.
The following is the programme for the coming
week: Monday, Jan; 10, Ninth Chapter Of
Gods Love-" William Alvin Bartlett. -.
"Wednesday, Jan. Is, Spread Of the Gospel,

MONEY AND COMMERCE.
MONETARY.

SATURDAY EVENING. Jan II.
Money is easier in the local market than 1t Was
q week ago. but not so much 30 as there WAS rea-
son to expect would bo the case by this time,
when D considerable portion OF the January in
terest and dividends have got into circulation.
The most marked effect o. these disbursements
thus far is como increase in tho amount OF
money offered for loan on real estate.
But in tho commercial money market, one Of
the circumstances that is helping not q Gttlo to
make money easier in New York is having tho
reverse effect hero. viz: the unusual low of
currency from the West to tho East Nearly
every bank in Chicago has been shipping cur
rency to New York during tho past week; sew
eraI Of those that have dono SO have not shipped
dollar OF currency to New York Tor several
years, and one or two old established banks
that mover renitted dollar OF currency to Now
York before, have sent large amounts there
within the last th1eo days. This is tho effect OF
the blockade in the movement OF hogs, cattle,
md products to the Atlantic seaboard. II tho
transportation facilities had been sufficient to
move the property that was offered during the
last tea days, money would be easy here now.
This condition Of Affairs is, OF cou1se, only tenn
porary. The eastward railroads will probably be
able to furnieh grcater accommodation before
long, but, until they do, tho case in money that
was expected to take place in this month will
banks with their correspondents hero are in
crcaBing Il little, but this is not the case
with city accounts. Merchants report col
lections in the country unsatisfactory; and,
instead Of making collections to meet al their
Eastern obligations, many OF them are still bor-
1owers of their bankers. The advent OF milder
weather will, however, facilitate the movement
OF stock and products in tile country, and, il the
railroads can carry the freight, the West will re-
alize en- what it has to sell, and money will be-
como easy.
