of Trade.
CHICAGO, Jan. 1S.-Wheat opened depressed
and sick and sold down to So for May on
few minutes from the opening, as compared
with 5734c at the close yesterday. The receipts
here were only 46 cars. against 1873 on the cor
responding day of last year. Minneapolis and
Duluth reported 203 together against 3sS a
year ago. The total receipts at primary mar
kets were 203,000, compared with 100000
bushels on the week year ago. The foreign
markets were weak. After the opening drop to
57l9c, the market fir om then to within short
iI1e OF the close dragged up and down between
oE2d51Ssc. There was Il short squirt OF activl-
ty III The Iast ten minutes OF the session and 1t
went TO the advantage of the bulls. A sale OF
10000 bushels OF No. l Northern at 81 cents
over the May price, was reported from Mllwau-
ke9 as having been sold theia to mllers today.
Toe market closed at 5756C9573zc. as against
57$4C yesterday.
The corn market was a reproduction on re-
duced scale of dullness which prevailed in
wheat The general opinion among receivers
is that the pts will be smaller in the course
OF few days. The opening price for May was
4712e, but it worked Otto 4714c in the course of
the forenoon, improving again near the end and
closing as it mad opened, at 47l2c sellers.
May oats started at 30lz(9307sc. sold at 30Ac
down to 30l4, and closed at 30l40303sc, within
very small fraction OF yesterdays cIose
The provision market was rather heavy and
lost all the little gain of the day before and
some more besides. May pork opened at fll Do
as against SLIGO at the close yesterday. 1T
sold as low as $l1.40, reacted to $ll.47l2,
which was the price ct the close. Lard closed

Speculation in Wall Street--Foroign and
Domestic Exchange.


Domestic Exchange.
NEW YORK, Jan, 19-The upward move
ment of the stock exchange was continued to.
day in the free OF unexpectedly heavy move
ments OF gold for shipment TO Europe tomor-
row, the total up to the close of business being
"a 400, 900, which, with Thursdays exports,
make the aggregate Tor the week IS ESQ 900.
The sub-treasury furnished So, 300,0 900 OF the
gold to be shipped. which brings the govern
ment gold balance down to less than $72 O0O,-
900.
Urder ordinary circumstances this drain
upon the country's stock of gold and the de-
pietng of the trea sury's reserve would have
made the occasion of an attack upon the specu-
lative values, but today the bears made no de-
monstration against them, and a steady i'm
provement ia prices was made, which was un.
changed save for slight reaction in q few of
the inactive shares about the middle OF the
aftern oon, which was su bsequently almost en-
tirely recovered. Among the factors in the
strength of the trading place must be given
to the abundant supply OF lonnabie funds and
the low rate of call money, though the chief
moving influence it is believed, is the prevail
ing impression that congress Will pass some
remedial legislation. The better feeling in
London for good American securities and buy
ing here for foreign account also helped to-
ward the frmness OF the market As on yes
terday The buying was by no means heavy, but
was we'll distributed through the list, and not
confined, as OF late, TO few active stOcKs, of
which insiders had absolute control, and
which were manipulated to suit exigencies

JOHN H. BURKE.
No reply has ever been received and on
Feb. 28th last l accidentally met Eustis
coming out Of the legislativev halls, and
pleasantly sought to converse with him
on these subjects, but he pre-emptorily
and insolently refused to converse on the
subject at ALL hence I am warranted in
forming my own conclusions as to wheth-
er he was or was not guilty of compile
ity in this crime, and you can do the same.
One would naturally think that man
would prefer to answer speedily such
letter in order to remove any possible
suspicion of his guilt, and the fact that he
has not done so, and on meeting me re-
fused to converse at all, coupled with the
fact that in June, 1893, this letter was
published and widely circulated may be
calculated to cast reflection on him.
In view Of the fact that in January.

1891 over 1890, amounted to $14,000,0 900:
the increase of 1892 over 1891 amount
ed to $1O,0O0,OO0; the increase
of 1893 over 1892 amounted to
to 100000 and the increase of 1894
over 1893, amounted to $6,00O,O 900. Final
ly the increase in the product of silver
from 1890 to 1894 inclusive amounted to
$42, 1000 900.
With the basis of product Of silver as
a starter in each year, 1t will readily be
perceived that the percentage of increase
has uniformly been in favor of gold.
throughout the period named; and when
it comes down to the last three years the
increase in the product Of gold over sill
yer has not only been much larger in tho
actual output, but the percentage has
simply been astonishing.
Observe that the percentage of increase
in the product Of gold, between 1892 and
1893, was $26,000,00O in round numbers;
while the increase in the product Of sill
yer was only $4,000 000,-more than 100
per cent In favor Of the product of gold.
Observe also that the increase In the
product of gold in 1894 over 1893,
amounted to $27 900, 900 as against an in
crease Of SC, OOO, 900 in the product of sill
yer. A little figuring on the part of the
editor Of the Tribune will discover the
fact that this increase is $50 per cent
over the product of silver.
Now "let us reason together" for a
moment: If 1t follows logically that be-
cause silver has increased $4,000, 900 in
product during the past year, the bullion
price should fall in the market, what
ought we to say about gold, whose in
crease of product has amounted to $50
per cent more than silver? Why in the
name of all that's reasonable, logical,
fair, honest and human, don't the price
of gold fall c0rrespondingly with the
price Of silver?
While the answer is perfectly plain to
every advocate of the free coinage of
silver" because gold is money and sill
yer is mott must be sumner" to
every advocate of the gold standard,
when he undertakes to argue that the
price of silver, when treated as money,
depends upon the production of the
