winter is unsettling the markets Receipts
OF eggs and butter are large beyond prece-
dent In January. while receipts OF poultry
are hardly up to the demand, the local and
Eastern markets being firmer. On Commits

commission houses for the business The
hide market is active, but prices are weaker
than ten days ago. The Hour market is
active and prices ffrmer, but not quotably
higher. Dry-goods merchants are doing liz

Marriage Licenses.


Chicago Advocate.
There is no defense TO be offered for the
marriage of Mrs. W.. X. Vanderbilt TO Mr..
o. II. p. Belmont. The whole history Of the
case shows plainly that neither party had
enough regard for the idea of marriage TO
have even resorted 10 IL but for social
sentiment which, with all their wealth, they
were not able wholly TO disregard. 1t is
now reported that New York society" pro-
poses to outlaw the lawless pair, having
decided i'm reference to a proposed charity
musicale at Mrs. Belmonts home that $50
ciety cannot patronize an entertainment
held at the house of woman who has been
married contrary TO the laws of the Epis-
copal Church." and. they might have added,
of ordinary decency. This is encouraging,
If true. When society accepts without pro-
test the course of conduct adopted by the
couple alluded to, such callousness OF con-
science can only betoken irretrievable decay
and, approaching doom. Every member or
society is interested in having the home
protected. The action OF Mr. and Mrs. Bel
mont is an aggravated assault upon that
institution which, more than any other. So
ciety must sacredly cherish IL there is TO
be society at all. Ii is plainly the duty OF
all honorable men and women 10 show these
defiant sinners that even marriage Is no
atonement for palpable immortality.

of the park, and Rufus Barnes. who was
the originator of the scheme. The enter

smaller amount Another item is for Si5 in

From a Brokers' Viewpoint.

Chicago Dispatch to o. H. Faught)
Wheat opened srong Thursday on a
range of 1461hc above the close the day be-
fore. Early routine news was rather con-
fiicting and did not have much effect on
the market Gables were higher, while
Northwestern receipts were large. Later
news was of an encouraging and somewhat
startling character. and the market took
an up-turn, which ii held, with slight f1uc-
tuations, till the close. Late advices from
New York reported the market strong at an
advance of &c over the lowest price of
yesterday morning, and the short element
is alarmed at the susceptibility of the mar
ket to bull influences and has covered free
ly Twenty loads have been taken for ex-
port to-day. The Price Current. in its week
ly crop summary, says: There IS con-
tinuance of mild weather In the winter
lection and in some localities freezing and
thawing are telling on the growth" A let
ter from Tacoma, Wash, says: "Our best
milling wheats have adyanee ei wonderfuly,
country. We think Chicago prices are still
cheap and people here are selling their
holdings and buying in Chicago" 1t is
with feelings of amazement that the trade
heard of shipments of flour from the North
west to the Pacific coast. 1t has become
familiar with reports or wheat shipments
from Chicago to the Southwest, but to have
wheat on the Pacific coast selling above
Chicago prices and to have flour shipped to
the Pacific coast simply bewildered them
There was considerable covering around
65Ac, which, with the news, sent the market
to 66c with rapidity. at this point some
realizing made decline of 1sc, which was
of short duration, as later cables showed
an additional advance Of PC, which put the
market up TO 663sc, the high point of the
day. from which it reacted and closed at
652ic.
Corn and oats were steady, but neglected
