The Spring has been cold and back
ward in Eastern Nevada. The grass
is short accordingly. More moisture
fell last Winter than during any other
Winter in ten years. The hard Win
ter OF 1SS9-90 that killed so many cat
tie furnished more snow in a short
space of time, but not near the mois-
ture in the aggregate that came down
last Winter. The season ought to be
a good one if we can ever get any
warm weather.

DROWSY BULLS AND REARS.

st. Nicholas Commands More Attention
Than Grain Options-Wheat and Corn
Excessively Dull and Sometimes Weak
Lower.
CHICAGO.-The wheat market opened ex-
cessively dull this morning. The feeling
was weak and prices were a trifle lower, but
there was a turn Tor the better. At no time,
however, was there any animation or much
strength. Cables quoted the English mar
kets lower at the start and domestic mar
kets were all heavy. The local crowd was
bearish. Longs had a good deal Of wheat
for sale, but owing 10 the narrowness of the
demand selling was very difficult except at
concessions.
For considerable time the price of May
held around 96G9S1zc. There was a report
of an approaching cold wave due Friday, and
also rumor that foreigners had commenced
buying at the seaboard. This put little
life into the market and early sellers began
to cover There was some buying for a
scalp on the bull side, as q reaction was re,
garded as among the things proba bic, ana
there was an improvement of about 1ac from
the bottom. when the market again became
slow and prices steady. During the last
hour the market eased off some, but rallied
and closed at the top figures of the day.
Corn followed pretty much the sse same san
but included IS cars of contract about 2oper
cent This with the weakness in the other
speculative pits, made heavy market for
time, and the longs hQuidated freely. A
period of more steadiness followed, the high
est prices being reached during the last
hour, but there was a slight recession at the
close.
Oats quiet and steady, scarcely changing
during the session.
Hog products weak and lower.
The leading futures ranged as follows, as cor
rected by Johu NJ Oakley & Co., IS Sixth street,
members of the Chicago Board of Trade.

touched bottom. Bids and offers were:

MONOTONE BROKEN BY A LIVELY
WHIRL. IN LUSTER MINING.

1t Is Raided Down More Than Two Dollars
Share, but q Little Stronger on the
strees-A Few Other Weak Spots in the
List.
Luster was the attraction at the Stock Ex.
change yesterday. 1t struck new lead, but
it had 20 suspicion OF a dividend, and
emerged from the .'scrap" with a very black
eye. The first sale was at " and the last at
81. There was small sale after call at 7zz.
The final bid was ~ offered at 8.
II there were more than ordinary reasons
for the decline they could not be found.
Several brokers said there were no outside
influences at work, SO far as they knew. 1t
was probably scalping tilt between brokers
to get up steam. Being a Iow-priced stock
this would involve but little expense and
might react profitably in other directions.
1t Is possible, however that the shorts had
hand in the fray. The fact that but y
little over 400 shares changed hands shows
that there was more smoke than fire.
While there were NO other important
losses, weaknesswas the feature Of the day.

of unemployed money on hand in this city,
as indicated by the report of Clearing House
bank deposits. is probably rs large as it has
ever been at any date in our financial his

this respect. In few days the corporations
and the Government will begin the distribu-
tion Of over $100, 1000, 600 in interest and divi-
dends, thus adding to the sum Of money
seeking investment"
