Chicago, Feb. Weakness held COM
plete possession of the wheat market to-
day, and as a result of the depressed con-
ditions, values showed net loss of &c.
News favorable to prices was sadly need
ed and the lack of encouraging intelli-
gence led more than one holder to dis
pose of his wheat. May wheat opened
at 663sc to 66c, sold between 66l5c and 6512c,
closing at 655sc-34c under yesterday. Cash
wheat was weak and nc lower.
The decline in wheat placed corn in a
discouraging light, the sympathy existing
between the grains causing the latter to
lose, by the weakness of the former. The
trading was of the kind which usually
precedes a holiday, and consisted of even
ing up of former contracts. May corn
opened at 30Mc, declined to 29Mc. where il
closed-15c under yesterday. Cash corn
was nc lower
The oats market held firm at the be-
ginning of the session, but ultimately
yielded to the pressure surrounding it,
Trading was in the main slow and quiet.
May oats closed AN@sc under yesterday.
Cash oats were steady.
The combined influence of cheaper hogs
and weak wheat market was too much
for product and under heavy selling of
long stuff prices ruled weak and lower
all day. heavy line was sold by a
prominent commission man in the early
session. some comment thereon taking
place. At the close May pork was 22Ia1
25c under yesterday. May lard was Sc
lower and May ribs, 7laei10c lower

A curious circumstance illustrating the
difference in speed between sound, which
travels through the air, and electricity,
through wire as its guide and conductor,
der works blew up in a town while a
railway telegraph operator was telegraph

At the instant of the occurrence he tele-
prraphed the news to the operator, who,
sixty seconds afterward, heard the report
of the explosion. He knew II had oc-

WALL STREET SPECULATION

Associated Press Special Wire.
New York, Feb. The stock market
today was considered to reflect tho absence
of support from prominent financial
houses, whose interests in the new govern
ment loan have been liquiated. The
course of values was downward. There
was liquidation by professional dealers
who are usually disinclined to hold stocks
over holiday. The foreign selling con-
tributed to tho depression, although re-
ported expressions of opinion from the
leading European financial centers regard
ing the new government loan are encour-
aging. In local banking circles it is now
beginnin. to be apprehended that the net
gain in gold to the treasury as result OF
the new issue, taking into consideration
the probable Withdrawals that may
be made on the sub-treasury 70
pay for the bonds, will foot
100000 900. OF course this is only a mat
ter of conjecture, due to some unfavorable
sentimental effect which was attached to
the theory today. A firm market for ster
ling exchange at an advance of u in rates
for actual business served as a bear text,
although the call money market exhibited
a fairly easy condition. The speculation
opened irregular and fairly active, but
saggiDg tendency soon developed on liberal
sales of the grangers, high-priced indus
trials and international shares. A rally
occurred about midday. The final hour
was characterized by resumption OF press
ure against the market, and values receded
to the lowest of the day. Important losses
were in Sugar and General Elec trio,
lM; Missouri Pacific, IL, and the
grangers 11s to ~ per cent, the last
in northwest. The closing was fairly act
i've. Railway bonds were heavy in tone.
and prices were shaded, particularly specu-
lative issues. The dealings were less act
i've, aggregating only $l,505,000. A
reactiouary tendency was noted in govern
ments and slight concessions were gener-
ally made in quotations. The trading was
unusually brisk, footing up $707 900. The
bulk of the business was in the new fours
coupon. chiefly at seller 20 fiat. Tomor-
row being the anniversary of the birth of
President Lincoln and legal holiday in
this state, the New York stock exchange,
sub-treasury and financial institutions
generally will be closed.
