Provisions were firm and secured
the larger proportion of the day 3 AZ,

general demand for May ut a shaue

day. The weather, for the season OF
the wear. was extremely cold in some
.ectiong. The fear of 10 or 20 degrees
colder weather sprea ing IN the wheat
belt caused some covering OF snort
wheat and advanced May, in about
20 minutes, from 5Sc, at which IL
onened TO So IA to So 3-8c. New
York sent good many orders to buy
in short wheat, II. V. Lester led IN
the buying at the opening and took
perhaps 100000 buahels in the
first 10 minutes of the session.
Other commission houses were
also fairly we'll supplied with
simiIer orders, but the first batch hav-
ing been executed, the market settled
down into quietude at a round % 10

commenced to unload, and the price
got back again to 58c for a moment
and closed with sellers at 6o l.8c.

The market eastd off with wheat to-
ward the close.
Oats opened a shade easier, but
shortly afterwarG when signs OF
strength became noticeable in corn
the market rallied and was slightly
frmer during the greater part OF the
rest of the session, but closed at last
nights figures.
The provision market was strong at
higher prices. The quantity absorbed
by cash purchases lett the market
quite bare The demand continuing,
and the offers being light, the advance
under the circumstances was matter
of course. Bald win about the middle
of the session began to buy ribs and
took about 100000 pOuads, and

The Randle Trial.

DALLAS, March 21.-In the Randle
trial today Judge Clint ruled out the
evidence of Mrs. G. A. Reynolds, who
testified that Henry Plumer told her
that he was not in the room when the
killing occurred. Major Randle was
placed on the stand. Under oath he
declared that he killed Ed 3. Randall
in self defense; that the deceased was
marching upon him with a knife and
he killed Randall to save his own life.
Tom Holland testified that he was
present when the parties to the
tragedy first met in the saloon; that
they were friendly and no harsh words
passed between them. The evidence
will all be in tomorrow night.

dences of renewed spot demand in tine
sales of IL, 600 bales at steadier prices.
Our market opened 3.points higher and
closed 6 above yesterday. Spot de
mand was good here also and prices
have been marked up 1-16 with sales
of 5000 bales. Post receipts aggregate
ZOO against 200 last year. New
Orleans expects tomorrow $500 agaist
24OO a year ago, and this confirms
in a measure the apprhensions
felt regarding the unfavorable
comparison from now on with the
movement of last year, shorts were the
principal buyers today, there being
naturally but little new business in
advance of the holidays, which will
keep Liverpool closed from tomorrow
evening until Wednesday next and
our market until Monday morning
The semi-weekly movement offers
nothing of special interest, the re-
ceipts and shipments at the 10 re-
ported towns being practically the
same as for the half week of last year
There is not likely to be much activ-
ity in the market until the re.opening
of Liverpool on Wednesday.

NEw YORK, March 2l.--ln review
of the stock market the Evening Post
says failing to push the market down
the professional traders proceeded to
bid it up today ard some stocks
scored material advances. The buNl.
ness done was, however, very small
aud room Spectators did the whole Of
it. No doubt the growing confidence
that last week rumors were baseiess
and that the president will veto the
segnorage bill imitation bill had its
share in creating local sentiment. This
is curious but by no means incompre'
hensible Any executive would prefer,
before voting, to get strong and public
expression of popular opposition to
measure. Despite last weeks misgiv
ings confidence in a sound money de-
-cision 10y the president has been so
strong that market weakens on the
rumors has at no time developed.
