NEW YORK-Under the impetus of yes

railway list, while dull, was firm; COM
mis- sion house business was light.
The grangers were more conspicuous
than of late and showed sharp fractional
advances. Rubber preferred gained a
point, after which a somewhat easier tone
developed through the list, only to be fol-
lowed by renewed strength followed by
moderate purchases of arbitrage houses
and free covering of short interests.
Sugar was bought literally by insiders
on anticipation of dividend declaration.
St. Paul and Burlington lead the railway
list, although coalers were strong. Clos

CHICAGO.-There was an easier feeling
in the wheat market to-day, the opening
being An$sc under last nights close for
May, and 12c for December.
Liverpool cables Were disappointing, that

which opened at SOC, declined to 9SAc and

reported talk of reduction of the import
duty on wheat in France, while private
cables from Buenos Ayres reported grow

tory. The market became easier as the
short session progressed. May sold down
wheat reacted proportiOnately.
