NEW YORK. Dec. ID

NEW YORK, Dec. Ia.
Insignificant fluctuations attended the light
dealings to-day and net results were irregular,
representing covering Of shorts in some direc-
tions, and little realizing i'll Others The day
was quiet one also in respect of the news.
The legislative questions now before Congress
are likely to be settled as the tariff bill
isto be withheld until next week. and the report
OF s"c'y Carlisle is still delayed. The only in
tefesting Washington item was the introduce
tlon by Senator orhecs of bill to coin the seig
norase on treasury silver, and the only signifi-
canoe here lies in the fact that Mr. Voorhees, rep
resented the administrator in the fight for silver
repeal. and Sec'y Carlisle has been suspected of
an Inclination to coin part OF the seignorage. The
delay OF Congress IN getting to work is far from
helpful to general business, and the continued
uncertainty with regard to future legislation is
reflected in dull trade reports. The revival of
outside interest in speculation is restrained by
the unsatisfactory outlook for railroad earnings
and the unsettled conditions Of trade and indus
try. The market is almost absolutely at a stand
still, and the only movements are inspired APP
parently with view to forcing the covering of
bears The short interest is undeniSbly large,
and in tile absence OF any selling pressure 1t fur
niShes good support to values. There is no
prospect Of any early change in the situation.

weak spots for quick turns when the shorts

Port and sailed In-No Exciting Incl
dents.
SAN FRANcIsco, February 6.-The
City of Peking got into harbor late In
the afternoon. Capt. Searles in his re-
port says the Peking sailed from Hoko-
hama January 10 and all went well
until January 21, when the steamer,
eleven hundred miles from San Fran
cisco. the shaft broke in the sleeve.
1t was Impossible TO mend 1t, and the
vessel proceeded under sail. She en-
countered heavy head winds nearly all
the way, and during the fifteen days
under sail she covered over 1900 miles.
Beyond the long delay aud the breaking
OF the shaft nothing exciting occurred.
This afternoon the sea wall from
Melgg's wharf way around 10 the ferry
landing, at the foot OF Market street,
was black with people, waiting TO see
the City Of Peking come into port. II
is estimated that fully 10000 people
were waiting along the water front.
Atabout ago o'clock the vessel passed
slowly along the front on her way to
her dock. A visit 10 the vessel by an
Associated Press reporter was made
and il was ascertained that the shaft
was broken In the sleeve
very near the propeller In such posi-
tion that it could not be reached. The
accident occurred at 6 O'Clock on the
morning OF January 2l, when seven
DAYS out from Yokohama, 10 latitude 60
degrees and longitude l46 degrees, two
minutes west.
She was then about 1900 miles from
San Francisco, and she at once proceed
ed TO make this port under sail. IL was
impossible to repair the shaft, and the
propeller was nearly lost, hanging
some what loosely behind and acting as
4 drag.
The entire distance TO within sight Of
port was made under sail.
The best days record was 10 miles.
The northern course was taken in hope
that she might meet the China, but no
vessel was sighted until of this port.
Everybody on board is well, and the
steamer looked as trim as though moth
in1 had happened.

United States TO succeed Mr.. Nebeker, OF
Indiana, and who are working up quite
boom for him FOR the place. While
all the members Of the West Virginia
delegation in Congress have not yet
committed themselves TO Mr.. JepSon's
candidacy. there is good reason 10 be-
lieve ne will have their unanimous in
dorsement. lie is the only West Vir-
ginia candidate I'm the field for the
treasurership,a and there seems no doubt
among the West Virginia members
about his ability TO ill the position ac-
ceptably.
Mr.. G.. W. Warren, editor OF the Hin
ton Ind pnd6nt-HTGld, was here seeing
