CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-The demand for money
was fair and of miscellaneous character.
Board Of trademen and packers were the prin-
cipal borrowers. In view of an increase in the
supply of loanable funds, regular Gu toners
and others in good standing found rates, if any
thing, little easier, but not quotably lower.
On demand, per cent. was the rate, and on
time per cent. Eastern exchange between
city banks was quiet and quoted at 6Gc pre-
MUM per $1,000. The bank clearings were
S76l9,OO0, against $8,6l8,000 over yesterday
The movement of currency to the country
was light. The earnings of the Burlington
Cedar Rapids & Northern railroad for the first
week in January were: 1884, $S5, 802. SO; 1888
$50, ,S96.15; decrease, 7,593.72. Earnings Of
the Fort Worth & Denver railroad first week il

New YORK, Jan. 16.-The market opened
with free selling of West Shore bonds and
a decrease in them to 49s. Large offer
ings of Oregon Transoontinental carried
that property to 25, and the appearance
throughout WIS quite ragged. 1t was ru-
mored that the latter was going the way of
Ontario & Western. After these furries
there was good buying of Chicago, Mil
waukee & ST. Paul, which impaired q firm
feeling; the pressure of stocks ceased, and
the market had much better look. In
the last hour the market was somewhat
unsettled. Oregon Transcontinental was
pressed for sale, and Vanderbilt stocks
were unsupported. Western Union tele-
graph was also particularly weak feature,
selling below 73. The coalers were Off,
notwithstanding the anthracite com panies
advanced prices from to 25 per cent
Stocks closed weak, and quotations were
about the lowest for the day when business
closed. There appeared 60 be no support.

for a rise seemed discouraged at the out
look. The stock which they bought OF

increased $4,000.
The market has been exceedingly fever
ish throughout the day, but the advantag
has been with the bears throughout. A
several times there were sharp rallies, ant
it looked for few moments as if the mar
ket had turned. At every advance the sale
were too pronounced, and the bulls wer
unable to make any head. The principa

Utah is WrathY.

SALT LAKE CRY, Utah, Jan. 16.-The
Mormon papers will comment severely on
the governors message. The Neacs says:
Il is matter of regret that the governor
allowed himself to become the tool of q
clique hostile to majority of the people.
With his general disposition and fair re-
cord as soldier, he should hold himself
aloof from such influences. He made him
self the enemy of the territory, slanderer
Of it's citizens, and is the instrum ent
of evil men for the
overthrow of Utah. The Herald says:
I'VE can tell the governor and the authors
of the message, if they desired the paper
to carry weight that they overshot the
mark, and will be disappointed from first
TO last. Il is an assault upon the people
and their religion. A seriousness runs
through the entire document. We hope
the legislature will treat the i'll timed
threats with contempt. In none of it's acts
let it be swerved or influenced by menaces
or intimidations.

TranscontinentaL The large bears cover
ed heavily Of 81. Paul yesterday, and this
morning delivered their stock, notably
Slayback, Woerishoffer, Elliot and others
There was also reported to be good buy
ing for long accounts, and President
Mitchell was said to be advising purchases.
Dealings were very large in West Shore
bonds, and during the early hours they
showed much strength and throughout
were frmer than for some days past. The
bears started report that an application
been made to put Oregon Transoontinen-
tai in the hands of receiver,
and all the friends of the stock
deserted it. Northern Pacific was strong
and weak by turns, as it suited the msnip
ulation. At the beginning of the last
hour the entire market seemed TO show a
good deal of strength, but Slayback
came in and sold New York Central down
to seller 60, irthis way causing the Van
derbilts to weaken and demoraIize the
whole list. The Lackawenna difficulties
are still before the trunk line commits
sioners AND it Is understood that they claim
an allowance of 20 psr cent, to which the
Erie president objects decidedly. Denver,
the second week in January, increased in
earnings $11,7OO. The market
closes weak ard very feverish.
Oregon TranscontinentaI seems to have
no friends. Western Union was taken in
hand the last five minutes by the bear
gang. The West Shore bonds are only
steady. On the other hand, there was good
buying of st. Paul, Lackawanna and New
York Central.

New YORK, Jan. 16. The Sun will say
tomorrow: Not to speak of individual
mercantile failures which increase every

corporate institutions burst one after the

it is but question of few days when at
least four more concerns will follow in the
same track. The Oregon TrsnscontinentaI,
the Northern Pacific, The Denver and Rio

Serious apprehension was lately enter
tanned in Wal street, that congress
