CHICAGO MARKET
The Days Transactions on the Board OF
Trade

The Days Transactions on the Board OF
Trade
CHICAGO, Jan. 21.-Wheat was some-
what weaker early in the session, mainly
on some generous selling by few of the
big holders and at one time it was &c be-
low the close last night, but the weakness
was only temporary and there was quick
reaction of &c, but this in turn was all lost
before noon. The early news was in the
main bullish; cables came higher, the
light worlds shipments reported yesterday
were officially confirmed and the country
deliveries were again moderate, While the
clearances aggregated about 4oO,OOo
bushels in wheat and flour. The telegram
received yesterday announcing shrinkage
of 100000 bushels in Indian wheat acre
age was also exerting a decidedly bullish
influence. The market was also helped
by the increasing strength in provisions,
and there was active covering by shorts
and good investment buying. Partridge
was heavy buyer much of the time but the
advance drove him out of the market for
n season. On the bulge there was enough
realizing and short selling to force prices
to a triiie below early figures. May sold
early at G15sc, weakened to 61ssc, then up
noon was about 611sc. The market was
weakened during the last hour by Brad
streets report, which showed a decrease
ing the worlds stock of only 1887, 900
where over 100000 bushels had been
looked for. The selling was on large
closing at GIG. Corn showed little
weakness early and sold at one time &c
below last nights close, but reacted in
sympathy with wheat and provisions and
went up &c, but by noon had weakened
and was the same as it closed yesterday
Oats were fairly active and business quite
heavy, the market following the tluctua-
tions of wheat and corn. Another small
run of hogs started provisions on the boil
again, but an inclination to realize was
soon manifested.

The Belief That Davis Monroe Doctrine Res

Associa ted Press Special Wire

Associated Press Special Wire
NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-A more cheerful
temper prevailed in Wall street today and
this condition was reflected in spasmodic
bursts of comparative strength and anima-
tion in the stock speculation. The inn
provemeut was not uniform however, ,as the
more confident tone was based on expec-
tation OF a continued easy condition Of the
money market and the belief that with
drawals of gold for shipment on Saturday
will be a nominal amount. The impress
sion that the proposed Monroe doctrine
resolution of Senator Davis would be either
postponed or defeated, caused
feeling of relief in financial circles
which may or may not ne Justl-
fed. Considerable favorable significance
was also attached to an announcement
that an English insurance corporation
would subscribe to 100000 of the new
issue of bonds. The market opened firm,
and advances to the extent of per cent
were recorded in many instances. The
improvement was checked soon after the
end of the first hour, when O slight reaction
occurred. The upward movement was
soon resumed, however, and at the top fig
ures gains were scored Of l to ! e per cent
in sugar. Late in tho day an attack was
made on the industrials and material de-
clines were effected in that class. The
railway stocks also sagged. but the
losses in these shares were only
fractional. Sugar fell IL on rumors of
impending measures in the New Jersey
legislature to forfeit the charters of the
company. Western Union was pressed
for sale to a comparatively large extent
despite denials by leading officials OF the
unfavorable r,lmors in circulation regard
ing the property. The market closed quiet
and steady, with slight gains genera! in the
railroad list The bond market operations
were on q decreased scale. the total deal
ings aggregating only $976,O0O. Prices
were firm. Government bonds were de-
cidedly lower in the bid quotations, espe-
cially for the new coupon fours, which
ruled ~ per cent off: No transactions
were made at the board, but comparatively
large transactions wero closed over the
counter.

Wholesale and Retail Prices. Corrected

Los ANGELES, Jan. Fl.
The produce market presents no features
of special interest. In retail lines business
is steady and good, with a full supply of
seasonable products, which keeps prices
steady. Among the wholesalers business
is not so good, the expected movement in
dried fruit and beans having failed to ma
terialize, while barley raisers are still wa it,
ing for settled weather before buying seed.
Hay holds at unchanged prices and is not
likely to move materially either way, as
hauling has ceased over the wet roads,
There is a large stock on hand, thoug h
much of it is not of the best quality. Pro-
visions are steady and trade good.

This was the idlest day the stock market ba S

until the close, when n recovery in America MS
on support from New York infused a languid
interest into the markets. Conditions are en-
tirelv in favor of great activity in the stock

cerlan that bear and bull operators are alike

On the other hand, the cost of main taining the lights aggregates very large sum annually. In the fifteenth lighthouse district, including the Mis- sissippi above Cairo, the Missouri and Illinois rivers, there are five hundred odd lights; in the sixteenth district, eN- tending along the Mississippi from Cal- 10 to New Orleans and the Red river there are three hundred and sixty lights, The smallest of these requires at least forty gallons of oil year, and the lowest salary of any of their keep CTS is almost one hundred dollars per annuln. Added to these items are the charges for maintaining lighthouse tenders and boats for removing snass and Instructions in the channel, to say nothing of the millions already spent in improving the stream.
