figure in comparison with the income
bonds which precede it.; but the short
interest was so largely covered yester-
day that there is now no inducement for
the pool to mark up the price for the
purpose of pinching the shorts, and, as
nobody outside of the pool will buy the
stock at these prices, it still stands as a
cause for some apprehenSiOnS to the
everyday spectators, who fear that 1t
may drop down any day, and in SO do
ing influence the whole market. There
was some heavy short selling of Union
Pacific on the knowledge that the jan
uary and February net earnings would
show large decrease. owing to the
heavy SHOWS in the mountains in those
months. The statement comes by way
OF Boston that the sugar trust has, in
fact. declared a dividend of "a per cent.
and is only awaiting the permission Of
the court to make the official announce
ment. The meeting of the st. Paul di-
rhctorS to take action on the dividends
will be held in Chicago. The expecta-
ton is that they will decide to resume
dividends at some rate OH the common
stock, and though this is not warranted
by any official or even semi-Official in
formation, the failure to declare divi-
dend would undoubtedly be consider
able disappointment. not only to the
pool that has been sustaining the price
of the stock for the last six months, but
also to the general specializing public.

CHICAGO, March 11.-This was an eX-
ceptional day in wheat. 1t was so more
because of the uncertainty than because
of any remarkable action. The range
was for the price of May wheat up to l
O'Clock but 1sc. The opening was &c
under the close yesterday, but was in
keeping with the curb price last night,
and this morning after the crop figures
from Washington were received Stats.
After making the very bearish state
ment that the wheat in farmers hands
aggregated 156.000000 bu, he doctors
it as best he can by saying that much of
the wheat is in hands where it will not
be sold until it commands better prices.
The big operators were DIVIDED to-day.
Brosseau was on both sides of the mar
ket. Poole and Hutchinson were the
best buyers. Irwin, Green Il Co. bought
early. New York bought here on each
decline. On the selling side there was
at times general letting go Of long
wheat. Driver led in this sort of sell
ing. All the foreign houses sold on the
ClOp liz utCSt WlllCtl iiCttk lllOLO NilSNo OAA
the other side than here. Schwartz
Dupee and Counselman were free sell
lers. When all others stopped selling
Partridge kept on. He was the big short
seller of the day. The sharpest decline
of the day. when May went to 77$4c on
stop orders placed around 78c, was
stopped very largely by the export
clearances. New York cleared $1,000
Blu. Philadelphia 10000 blu, Baltimore
91.0J0 bu, and the same ports cleared
enough flour to make a total of wheat
and flour equal to 268.000 Blu. Beer
bohm made the increase on ocean pas
sage 91S.0O0bu The action i'll May was as
follows: Opened 7S7Sc, sold 7Sc to 7oA@
7s35c, off to 7734c, up to 7s115c,o off to 7775c
and up to 7S1sc, the opening price at 1
o'clock. July sold at 767S@75Mc. The
buying forces in the wheat pit succeeded
in holding May at 7S75c at the close.
Receipts to-day were rs cars of wheat;
925 of corn and 225 Of oats. Shipments,
1850 bu wheat, 100000 bu corn, and
1876 bu oats. Corn was weak, due to
the immense reserves reported in farm
er's hands. There was very little de-
mand and receivers had free selling Or
ders. The unfavorable weather for re-
ceipts and for the grading helped to
hold the market steady for time, but
the liberal offerings finally Overcame
this. Oats were quite easy in sympathy
with other grains. May sold at 21s8c to
214. There was little business, but
the market seemed held by strong
hand. Hutchinson bought occasionally
on the weak spots, but took no very big
line. Provisions we're fairly active, and
after declining a point or so on free
selling recovered and closed 21a@5c
higher than yesterday.
The leading futurAS ranged as follows.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber Of Commerce.

Between yesterdays closing wheat market
and to days opening prices fell nearly S4c.
The cause of the break was the extremely
bearish report from Statistician Dodge, of
the Washington bureau of agriculture, es-
timating stocks of wheat in farmers hands at
1876, 0UO, 900 bu, against previous eXpecta-
tons of an estimate of about 80, 600, 900 pu.
Liverpool was quiet with little doing, and
holders more disposed to sell futures. Sec
ond cables gave wheat dull tone and re-
ported weather spring-like. The amount of
wheat on passage increased $4,000 blu.
There was some heavy short selling yes
terday by outside parties, who bought
in large lines on the break to-day,
picking it up from many different parties in
small lots. Rains were reported in portions
of the winter wheat country, with weather
conditions favorable in all. Some dealers
expressed themselves freely as expecting
bearish markets until the effect of the gov.
eminent report is at least partially forgotten.
Further declines might have resulted but for
the buying to cover shorts, June wheat was
nominal at 7712c asked.
Following are the closing wheat quota
tons: No. l hard, March, 76l2c; April,

Receipts of wheat for the day was 263
cars with 20 shipped out. Trading was ex-
tremely dull in spot wheat with buyers hold
ing off to see the bottom of the present break.
They would have bought quite freely, per-
hsps, at about i2c concessions. During the
early part of the session very little wheat was

BIG MONEY FOR BUILDINGS.
Nearly Two Millions Voted by
the House.

viz 1IOu6Cs
WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE house
to-day passed bills to provide for the
erection of public buildings at the fol-
lowing points: Cedar Rapids, To-;
Chester, Pa; Columbus, Ca; Atchison,
Kan; Alexandria, La; Lynn, Mass;
Lafayette, Ind; Baton Rouge, La, and
Fremont, Neb.; also bills providing
for increase of the limit of cost of pub
lie buildings at Newark, N. j.; Scran-l
ton, Pa; Troy. n. Y; Dallas, Tex,
and Springfield, Mo. The measures
passed to-day involve an expenditure
of 81, $3.50 Mr.. Enloe, of Tennessee,
invalid pensions from the further con-
sideration of a resolution calling on the
secretary of the interior for information
relating to the administration of the
pension Office under eX-Commssioner
Tanner and what steps had been taken
to recover money paid to pension office
employees who we're illegally rerated.
Mr.. Enloe said the country desired this
information, but that the committee
had taken no action on the resolution
which he had offered early in the ses-f
sion. Tanner had kept the promises he
had made on the stump, and the cOun
try wanted to know the reasons why he
had been kicked out. Mr.. Morrill,, of
Kansas, chairman, and Mr.. Chapman, OF
Michigan, member of the committee,
said he had never before heard
of the resolution and that the clerk of
the committee said it had never been
presented to him. In view of these
statements Mr.. Enloe withdrew his mo-
ton. Mr.. Baker, of New York, from
the committee Oh territories, reported
the bill for the admission of Wyoming.
and asked for its immediate considera-
ton. Mr.. Springer raised the question
of consideration and opposed it with a
motion to adjourn, which was defeated.
Finally the house took up the bill in
committee of the whole, and, pending
discussion, the committee rose, and the
house at 5:2O d. m. adjourned.
