The Act rlay RecoiI

The same Nevada state senate that
disgraced itself by passing a bill permit
ting prize fighting in the state has
now voted to grant the suffrage to
women. This latest action may be in
effect to repeal the prize fight
ing law, and at the same time drive
the present law makers out of office.
Perhaps if the women of Nevada are
permitted to vote they will make short
work of the pugilists and their friends.

The Days Transactions on ths Board Of
Trade

CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-The final price of
May wheat on Saturday was 1874 613% The
opening price today ranged from 20 to- 7514,
of over a cent advance. On the curb the
bulge had been much sharper, 76la having
been quoted. The market had the best
kind of encouragement from Liverpool and
London, for although Saturday marked
the biggest break of the month in prices
here Liverpool had advanced ed before
the opening of the regular board due, of
course, to the disturbed foreign political
situation. The drop in British consols of
per cent showed how serious the state
of affairs was regarded, for fluctuations as
a rule are in fractions of l-16. Some of the
strength at the opening was also based on
the small worlds shipments of last week.
The price Immediately advanced TO io9s,
but the feeling was not all one way. Shorts
were scared into covering but at the same
time holders welcomed the temporary
strength to market their lines. The price
got down to 14% after an hour ana hali l
to use a very large quantity of short wheat
to droduce the latter result The effect of
that was quickly feat when the short
sellers had to put out as much as they
dared and then they tried to buy 1t back.
A gradual rise to 74s4 took place and
very rapid advance of more than another
cent so about II o'clock the previous sellers
were the most anxious buyers at around
743a before they got enough to satisfy
them for the time being. The price got to
1875 for an instant, trifle over cents
advance from the close Saturday. The
worlds shipments amounted to 3,3S70O0
bushels. decrease of 1.227 900 bushels. AS
the reduction year ago amounted TO but
100. 600 bushels this had a very sensible in
fiuence on prices. Northwest receipts were
light 255 cars, compared with 511 last week,
and 466 on the corresponding day Of the
year before. and Minneapolis is reported
mills bidding for wheat a &c over the May
price A good cash business was also re-
ported. After the advance TO 1915. active
realizing and short selling caused reac-
ton to 75A. which was quickly succeeded
by another advance to 1885. The closing
was firm at 75i4 G753s. Corn was compara-
lively quiet but firm. Local receipts were
heavy. BAL cars. but this was offset by the
strength of wheat and the clearances of
S39. 900 bushels The market for oats was
firm and active all day Buying orders
were plentiful at the start and prices ad-
vanced. They broke when wheat made its
/ cent decline but rallied again quickly.
Provisions were much firmer,. pork leading
in the advance Prices were helped by the
strength of wheat and also by firm hog
market.
