MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce.

The wheat markets were unsettled and
weak yesterday following the break of Tues
day. Cables were weak and very quiet, but
the fears of holders of wheat and BUYERS of
wheat to hold, lest the effect of hostile legis-
lation would disturb the markets for the sale
of it, were another cause for the decline.
News of growing crop were mainly favorable
and stocks ill sight do not reduce so fast as
owners of the property desire. Such reports

New YORK, Feb. 10.-In view Of the facts
in the coal deal which were given out today,
the stock market was more Than Reading,
both in the stock department. and the bond
list Certainly, the transaction in the Read
ing stocks and bonds were more than half
of the entire business. Of the other coalers
only Jersey Central made any response to
the stimulation, aud the general list was
comparatively quiet, and remained feyersh
and irregular the entire day. The general
tendency was upward however. under the
influence of the immence rise in the Heading
securities, and. while the professionals and
traders were alike bearish on the general
list. their efforts to get prices down were en-
tirely neutralized, and most stocks show
slight gains as the result of the days oper-
alton.
By far the,largest portion of the business
was done iii the last hour, after the announce
ment of the true nature of the deal which
has mystified them SO long, and Erie at this
time became more promlnet in The trading
while rising fractionaly. The opening of
the market mas made on moderate volume
of bushes, comparatively small, with prices
,, generally lower than those of last night. and
rumor that ST. Paul contemplated an issue
of S1G,000, 600 new stock opened that stock
off "a per cent
The rest of the list were irregular within
narrow limits, but marked strength was soon
developed in Reading, Lackawanna and
Jersey Central. The industrials followed at a
distance, but the changes in quotations
were insignificant as rule. except
in the. few stocks mentioned. Prices
rose or fell according to the prevailing tenn
per of the dealers, and the general tendency
was upward. In the last hour, however
Reading went up with rush, but without
bringing the list along to any marked ex-
tent, and Lackawanna was especially bull
ish. In fact, tie industrials and other stocks
which had any connection with the coal
trade. direct or indirect were the only ones
displaying any great strength throughout the
day

The Sioux CITY Combination.

Sioux CRY. Iowa, March ga St.
Paul special announces that the lease OF
the Sioux City, Chicago & Baltimore
road, together with other recent develop
ments in railroad circles. are taken as in
dicating that a great combination of the
Great Northern and Kansas City systems
is contemplated, and that the Pacific
short line is to be completed and the Bal
timore & Ohio open routes to the Mis-
souri, river.
10 confirmation OF this theory it has
leaked out here today that President
Stickney of the Kansas City system
was here all day Yesterday. He
was travelling incog and while here
was entertained and held a long confer
euce with leading railroad men of this
city. His presence was intended to be
he had left His hosts admitted that be had
been here viewing the city, but would not
say on what business. Mr.. Stickuey was
greatly interested IN Sioux City and 1t is
now believed that he is interested with
James j. Hill and a Sioux City syndicate
in the terminal facilities that have been
put in here and the magnificent union
depot that is building. The st. Paul
dispatches, written before it was known
that Stickney was here, are beliyed to
have come very near the facts.
John d. Negus has becn operating near
Standing Rock, OAK. for the last few
months and this would seem to verify the
dispatch that the combination will 10

AT THE POST.
Some Pleasant Social Events During
III Pas Week at Fort Russell.

The week has been very quiet. Per-
haps the most exciting event was the
Cheyenne national dividend, which had
been 80 long coming that some we're be-
ginning to think it had been fatally in
iured en- route.
Mrs. Grumley gave a very nice dinner
on Wednesday. Among the guests were
Capt. O'Brien, DR.. and Mrs. Hazard
and Miss Hewitt.
Mrs. Van Horne and Mrs. Durfee are
visiting at Fort Logan, Denver, for a few
days.
Capt aud Mrs. Roberts. with Cyrus
aud Laura. lett for Austin. Tex, on Sat
urday. The captain is expected back
soon but the others will stay till warm
weather
Mrs. Robertson. who was here for a
few days visiting Mrs. Druien. left Tues
day.
Several of the ladies of the garrison
are busily engaged in working for the
Episcopal tair to be given Immediately
after Easter. 1t Is to supass anything of
the kind ever attempted in Cheyenne-it
would be hard to say more.
Mrs. Dickerman left for Leadville Mon
day morning.
The high five club was entertained right
royalty on Thursday evening by Capt. and
Mrs. Greene. Twenty were present and
the prizes fell to Mrs. Walker and Mr..
Dashiell.
An amateur dramatic club has been
formed in the post. Just who the mem
bers are and what play is to be first given
it is impossible to say at the present
time.
From an occasional correspondent we
have the following:
THE KING JOHN CLUB.
The great literary and social event of
the season was the meeting of the King
John club lately formed by the CONSOLE
dation of the Old Bachelors and Pharoh
clubs) at the pretty home of Lieuts.
Lyon aud Donovan last Friday afternoon.
These charming hostesses entertained the
club most delightfully."-, sending a special
train to bring out the Cheyenne mem
bers. Mr.. Kerr's essay on the "Zend
Avesta, the great religious epic of the
ancient Persians and his biography of the
author, Mr.. Zoroaster, was a mastery
paper and was much appreciated BY the
club.
After a charming tea of bretzels and
sweet cider, during which Mr.. Hardaway
rendered several beautiful pieces on the
guitar, adapted from the old Aztec. and
Mr. Donovan sang several solos and Mr..
Frier talked thestricals, the club was re-
called by some fancy clog dancing by
Lieuts. Nickerson and Lyon. The great
est treat of the afternoon was the boxing
match between Lieuts. Donovan and
Nickerson. Both showed superior skill.
The feature OF the match was the wonder
full agility displayed by Lieut.. Nickerson
in avoiding Lieut.. Donovan's long dis.
lance blows. The Greco Roman wrest-
ling match between Lieuts Frier and
Hardaway was very funny. The club ad-
journed with a good natured skirt dance.
Mr.. Kate Field of Washington has con-
sented to address the club at its next
meeting.
