BRITISH GRAIN TRADE.

LONDON, Jan. S.-The Mark Lane Ex-
press, in its weekly review of the British
grain trade, says: The freezing and foggy
weather encourages wheat farmers. Ow-
ing to the good reserves of leading cereals,
the exchanges have not shown the buoy
ancy which frequestly characterizes the
opening of new year. There IS
little change in prices from those
Of December. The sales of En-
glish wheat during the past were %, Is
quarters, at 30s 4d, against q, GAG, at 3ls Sd,
during the corresponding week last year.
Corn at Liverpool Is in fair demand:
Beans and peas are occasionally 3@6d
dearer, especially North Goland. Oats are
auotably dearer There is an improved re-
tail inquiry. Three cargoes of California
wheat have been solo, one cargo at 3es Sd
for u, 240 quarters, and two cargoes at SOS.
A dense fog prevailed today, and there was
a poor attendance at the market. Little
business was done. English wheat was
firm. Prices of foreign showed harden
ing tendency. Flour was dearer for the
ordinary makes, but the opinion prevails
that the best English is kept too high:
Round corn was firm, but fiat was Sd
cheaper. English barley was unaltered
Foreign FEEDING barley was Sd dearer:
Beans and peas declined Cd. The demand
was disappointing. Oats were ID dearer
for the lighter sorts, owing to the close OF
Russian navigation.

WORSE THAN EVER.
The Ticket scalping Trade Assuming Gil
gantio Proportions.

CHICAGO, Jan. S.-A local paper says:
I'm spite of Judge Cooley's recent admoni-
ton to railroad managers in regard to the
evils OF ticket scalplng trade, the trouble
has assumed greater proportions than be-
fore The promise that no more tickets
should he placed in scalpers' hands and
that those i'll their possession should be
withdrawn has not been kept. Not only
have the tickets not been withdrawn, but
more have been placed there with them.
\ month ago Broker Frank had $50
tickets from Chicago to Kansas City
which were sold to him by the Wabash at
S625 each, although the tariff rate was
Sl2 80. The other Kansas City lines had
onlv a few tickets on the market. The
Wabash tickets were found to be unlim-
tied Receiver McNulta tried TO buy them
but Frank refused TO sell. Before suit was
brought against Frank a conference was
held between the Wabash people and
Frank and it was given out that the latter
had agreed TO return the unlimited tickets.
1t now transpireS. however, that deal
was made which virtually places Frank in
a better position than before. The $50 I'M
limited Wabash tickets in his hands Were
redeemed at ST. p but in exchange each of
the five roads between Chicago and Kan
sas City placed with HIM zoo limited
tickets dated some time ahead at SG.25, so
that Frank has now about 1000 tickets
over all of the lines between Chicago and
Kansas City, while before he only $50
over the Wabash. The reason assigned
by the Wabash competitors for enter
ing the deal. was that it was the means by
which the Wabash tickets could he gotten
out of the market and by which all roads
could be placed on an equal footing. Now
in order to enable Frank and the other
ticket brokers to sell their tickets at large
profit the railroads have advanced their
rates to SD So The scalpers sell the tick
cts which they got for So y for Sl1 or Sl2.
All the scalpers are said to be we'll stocked
with cheap tickets and there is no immedi-
ate prospect of their supply running short.
The interstate commission should at once
take steps to compel the railroads to make
the same rates TO the public as their tickets
are being sold for hy the ScalnerSN

AvFssFl OF GREAT MERIT.

NEW YORK, Jan. S.-The board of con-
troll to which Secretary Whitney referred
Secretary Thomas plans for a coast de-
fence vessel, yesterday concluded It's labors
by agreeing to report the plans back to the
secretary, with a recommendation that
they be adopted by the department. The
vessel designed by Thomas is of the Moni-
tor type, 5000 tons burden, armed with a
dynamite gun, two ten inch guns, two tor
pedo tubes and one rapid firing gun. She
is to have nine feet free board with provi-
sjons for sufficient time, with water
ballast to submerge her three feet, thus
giving her but six feet above deck when
desired The decks are flush and the ten
inch guns, instead of being fired from
holes in the turret, are fired from the top,
as from bulwarks. The speed of the YES
sci is to be seventeen knots. The MEM
beers of the board are of the opinion that
the design is of great merit.

Heavy Weight Railroad Men Meet to De-

NEW YORK, Jan, S.-The Times says:
'The big railway clearing house scheme is
to be pushed through even more rapidly
than was anticipated. Jay Gould said
Yesterday that a formal meeting for the
purpose of agreeing on some definite plan
for the permanent maintenance of rates
would be held at II a. m. today, at the res
idence of p. Morgan. Those who have
thus signif1ed their intention of attending
the meeting are C. 2. Huntington, presi-
dent Of the Southern Pacific; w. K.
Strong, president of the Atchison, Topeka
g. Santa Fe; Jay Gould, president of the
Missouri Pacific; c. T. Winslow, president
of the st. Louis q San Francico; X. K.

resentIng Drexel. Morgan & Co. and j. ;.
Morgan g. Co.. and j. c. Brown, repre-
senting Brown Bros. and Brown, Shipley
& Co., of London.
These are the gents who met during the
latter part of December and agreed to the
restoration and maintenance of rates. The
agreement has already proved unsatIsfac-
tory and the meeting today will be for the
purpose of formally adopting the policy AS
outlined at the Wall street meeting last
Saturday. All the above named banking
firms and nearly all the railroad presidents
are strongly in favor of forming the pro-
posed clearing house A clearing house
committee will be formed composed of one
delegate from each road and IL will have
some charge of clasSiticationS and rates,
the regulation of car service, the ADJUST
ment of all claims for the Losses by dam
age and overcharge and the division of eX-
penSeS and of revenue. In other words,
the committees duties will be to control
entirely the railroad traffic. All the lines
represented are to pool all the business,
thus doing away completely with all COM

NEW YORK, Jan. S-The fact that to-
DAYS meeting of railroad presidents and
bankers was held at the house of one of
the leading bankers in the city, gives the

to ferret out the responsibility of the re-

at the residence of J. p. Morgan, on Fifth
avenue at II o'clock. One of the first to
arrive was President Cable, OF the Rock

umentary evidence that is expected to ere

the bankers are very much i'll earnest in
the investigation was made evident by Mr..

whether it would take any action.
