! GUS increase of $16,744 100 in the deposits.
The condition of the money market.
present and prospective, has been of
greater interest all week than the stock
market The heavy Union Pacific state
ment made not the slightest impression
on the market.
The resumption of business actively In
the south with the removal of yellow
fever quarantines has failed to result In
any notable demand for money from that
quarter. The west is sending money to
New York bank vaults, that region be-
ing plentifully supplied as the result Of
paying off Of long-standing obligations.
Chicago banks reported to have sew
eral million dollars loaned in Germany
as the result Of grain bills purchased In
that center, which have not yet been
drawn against by exchange bills.
This operation involves the purchase Of
long exchange to hold until maturity and
New York banks have loaned money
abroad by similar operation.
This doubtless accounts in part for the
firmness of the foreign exchange rates in
face of the continued heavy exports of
food stuffs.
The foreign exchange market has prob
ably felt the effect of the weeks sales of
American securities for London account
in this market. London has sold quite
steadily Of the stocks which make up the
bulk of ordinary arbitrage operations.
But there have also been large sales Of
high grade investment bonds by that
center, owing to the high range of prices
prevailing here. Rcmlttances to pay for
these have helped to keep the exchange
market firm. The stock market has Of
fered almost no feature Of interest during
the week.
AS result of today's strength the list
generally shows small net gains.
The Northern Pacific stocks have been
strong on talk of dividend for the pre-
fcrred. and the preferred Is 3h higher.
Sugar IS 3 points for the week.
The feature of the bond market has
been the large demand and meager Offer
ings on high grade bonds. Tho market
has not been notably active. but prices

Northwest receipts were 927 cars.
against 972 last week. and 512 year ago.
The persistency with which receipts I'D
there refuse to fall off in spite of all pre-
dictions to the contrary. was also a
closing cog to the market. It developed
that the heavy advance In December was
having its natural effect upon the coun-
try shippers who possessed any that
would inspect contract. Wheat that
would have gone to Toledo or St. Louis
under ordinary conditions was headed
this way and $4,000 bushels of No. 2 red
winter ready to ship from Indiana was
sold in the pit at from 90 to 9S4 for De-
cember. delivery. The opening decline in
that future was pressed into a still fur
ther reduction when the above informa-
tion became generally known.

ances Of wheat and flour for the week
from both coasts at 5,465, 900 bushels,
against 6.653,000 bushels the week before,
and 3,7530 900 bushels the corresponding
week of 1896. There was some bull news

The day clearances from the Atlantic
seaboard amounted to 100000 bushels.
Only about 100000 bushels increase in
the invisible is expected Monday. The
advices from the northwest were that.

that handlers of cash wheat were sellers
of carloads to arrive for Iowa and Ne

Armour & Co. likewise sold December
wheat in the pit, which was supposed to
be against wheat bought In Duluth to
come here. Selling of Decemb, ,r finally
became so free that the market broke to
971k.
Near the opening it had SOLD as high
as 991k. It steaded somewhat at 971a, and

a special cable d1spnptch to the Ch1-
cago Times-Herald gives the following
interesting particulars regarding the ef-
feet upon the insurance companies of the
recent big fire in London. 1t says:
1.-THE total loss in Fridays confagra-
tion is estimated at E2.OOOOOO. F'ifty-six
buildings were totally destroyed, six
teen gutted. twenty damaged and four
scorched. More than the usual difficulty
is experienced in securing information as
to the net amounts of insurance involved,
owing to the effect of the fire on the
share market. A list compiled today,
which will of course be subject to later
revision is as follows:

ATTACHED THE COLONIAL
E. F. Joy Sues Mrs. Sarah B.
Johnson on a Promissory
Note.
Other Debts Outstanding-The Pro-
prietor Claims to Be Perfectly
Solvent

Sheriff Whelan took possession of the
Colonial Hotel, corner of Pine and Jones
streets, on an attachment sued out yester-
day morning by Edwin f. Joy who claims
that the proprietor, Mrs Sarah B. John.
son, is indebted to him in the sum of
$56286 81.
Mrs. Johnson gave Joy the note some
time ago for the amount named and
though he made several attempts to col.
lect it Mrs. Johnson was OF ready to pay
and he began suit. The action was filed
by Joseph Kirk, attorney for the Board OF
Trade, and Mrs. johnson Immediately
went to the board rooms to try to head
the attachment off and prevent others
being placed on the furniture by various
persons TO whom che is indebted.
She claimed to be perfectly solvent and
said II she were given time she would be
able to settle all her debts in a manner
satisfactory to her creditors.
w. w. Mon tague & Co. are among the
heaviest creditors, and q representative OF
the firm saw Mrs. Johnson and arranged
to settle the account in an amica bic
manner.
garnishment Was placed on Mrs.
Johnson's funds in the First National
Bank to secure the amount claimed by
Joy, but it is expected that this will be re-
leased shortly.
The keeper of the Colonial attributes
her troubles to inability to collect out
standing accounts that she claims will
more than offset her liza bilities. She fears
other attachments by timid creditors, but
says that it is only question OF a few
days before she will be in good financial
condition.
