WHEAT ADVANCED &c
BETTER DEMAND AND HIGHER FOR
EIGN QUOTATIONS THE CAUSE.
Free Realizing Sales mt the Close
Corn and Oats Strong and Higher.

CHICAGO, Feb A.-wheat displayed con-
siderable activity to-day in marked con-
trast to the stagnant condition which pre-
vailed last week The routine news was al
most uniformly bullish and closing pric.s
showed an advance of 1c over Fridays final
figures. Corn and oats were also strong and
gained 1kc and Ac, respectively. Provisions
were weak and closed lower.
Wheat benefited by it's rest from Friday to
this morning, as seen in the vigor and
strength with which it inaugurated the
weeks business. May, which was worth
only 64Jka64ssc at the end of Fridays ses-
sion, was in demand at the opening at from
Csc to 651Ac and it took but short exercise
of it's recuperated energies 70 get the price
up to 6524c The strength was due to the ad-
vance of I'D on Saturday at Liverpool and
a further I'D advance to-day and to the
fact that nearly every commission house
having foreign connection had buying orders
at the opening. The report from Washing
ton that the Agricultural Bureau had advices
from Argentine confirming the reported poor
crops there, both in quality and quantity.
was also an important factor. But the con-
tlnental markets outside of Liverpool were
weaker, the amount of wheat and flour on
ocean passage increased 1.120,00o bu during
the last week, ana IL was rumOred tnat the
worlds shipments would exceed 100000 blu.
All this gradually changed the bull enthu-
sasm to a feeling of doubt and distrust,
and there was realizing and liquidation which
affected prices unfavoraDly and the market
lost CSC. But the final visible supply figures,
showing $4,000 bu decrease-or over 100000
bu more than generally expected-caused
some rally. May opened at Coo, advanced to
65s4c, off TO 652sc, and up to 655sc. The ex-
ceent cash demand at this point, the sales
aggregating about 249 600 bu, aided materially
in creating the strength in the closing hour
the price advancing to 66d66lsc. Some free
realizing caused reaction to 655sc, land at
that price it closed.
The recent warm weather which is ex-
pected to have bad effect on country roads,
helped corn greatly. Opening &c higher at
3014c, May advanced to BOISE and closed firm
at 305sc. Trading was fairly active.
Oats were quiet. but firm, influenced by
the strength in corn. May opened unchanged
at 2lhc, touched 2112c, and closed at 21Ac.
Trading in provisions was rather dull. The
opening was weak on the large hog receipts
and though there was rally in sympathy
with the strength of the grain markets, no
support was gwen and prices soon receded
again. At the close May pork showed loss
of 121Rc, and lard and ribs Csc eacn.
Estimates for Tuesday-Wheat, 175 cars;
corn, LOO cars; oats 76O cars; hogs, 1900
head.

MORE TROUBLE IN PHOENIX Ma
TIONAL TELEPHONE COMPANY.
A Stockholders Complaint Throws
Affairs Into Union Trust Company's
Hnnds-ROOker Case.

Late yesterday evening an application
was made to the Circuit Court for a re-
ceiver for the Phoenix National Telephone
and Construction Company, a corporation
having an Office in the Lombard building.
The suit was brought by Isadore Crohs,
one OF the stockholders. Curtis d. Meeker,
John W. Paris and William f. Churchman
were made codefendants to the suit Meeker
is president and Paris secretary of the
company. The Phoenix National Tele-
phone and Construction Company. it is
understood, is not in any way connected
with the Phoenix Telephone Company,
which tried to get franchise from the
city short time ago.
Isadore Grohs, the plaintiff. owns l25
shares in the company. William F. Church.
man, it is claimed. holds as trustee s27, 200
worth Of stock in the Champaign and Ur-
bana Phoenix Telephone Company, which
stock. it is averred. is part of the assets
of the defendant company. Grohs, in his
complaint, says that he has maintained his
interest in the company by an outlay OF
s. 600. which he AYERS he has never re-
ceived dollar I'm return. He charges that
the business is practically insOlvent; that
the property and assets have been wasted
and converted to the use and profits Of
Meeker ard Paris by fraudulent devices
II - stllt2eu tndI lTduQulent transactions
whereby the plaintiff and other stockho-d-
ers have been cheated, took place without
the plaintiffs knowledge or consent.
The Phoenix National Telephone and
Construction Company had a contract TO
build a telephone system at Steubenville
.. II is charged that John w. Paris, sec
rotary and director Of the company, was at
a meeting OF the directors voted the entire
proceeds which were to be realized from
the Ohio plant, and that he made a written
contract with two directors TO divide the
profits. The complaint alleged that Meeker
is about to get hold of the Illinois COM
oany's stock held in trust by William F.
Churchman. and unless a receiver was ap-
pointed the stock would be turned over TO
Meeker. The court was asked to restrain
Churchman from delivering the stock TO
anyone except a receiver, TO restrain John
w. Paris from further procedure and TO
appoint a receiver for the company, TO
take charge of the property and TO carry
out all uncomoleted contracts.
Acting on the suggestion of attorney A
J. Beverage, the court appointed the Union
Trust Company to take charge of the Phoe-
nix company's affairs. Severa. witnesses
were examined as TO the financial condition
of the company.
