INDIA's FAMINE.

A Motion For a Separate Inquiry De-
feated in the Commons.
London, Jan. 26.-In the House of Com
mons to-day a motion was introduced by
Sir William Wedderburn, radical member
for Banffshire, that the home government
make an inquiry Independent of that of
the India government, into the condition
of the masses in India, with a view of
escertaining why the people are helpless
to resist the famine and pestilence with
which they are now afflicted.
Lord George Hamilton, secretary of
state for India, defended the action al
ready taken in the direction indicated and
opposed any independent investigation,
which he declared was wholly unnecessa-
ry, adding that famines in India were
much rarer now than they were years ago.
The motion of Sir William Wedderburn
was rejected by vote of 217 to 80.

NEW YORK STOCKS.

NEW YORK, Aug. wall street has not
seen liveier half day of trading than that
OF today for quite an Indefinite period. All
OF the favorable factors that have been in
force during the week continued to exercise
an influence and there were added to these
several causes that carried the market up
with surge to higher level all around.
Principal of these was the sensational jump
in Manhattan elevated stock, which opened
with running sales of a thousand shares at
1O21s to los as against 99H at last nights
close. Almost Immediately the price rose fur
Their to 10S and reacted quite violently, but
steadied again and closed at 1861, net gain
of tx. Probably the large existing short in.
terest In this stock was responsible for this
sensational movement in part. A story that
the Metropolitan Traction company had made
an offer to purchase the elevated system
which offer was under favorable considera-
ton, sent the stock up and uncovered stop
loss orders for the shorts. The scarcity of
the stock resulted in the shorts quickly bid
ding the price up on themselves. The Wander
bilts also were in keen demand for invest
ment buying, Illinois Central leading. Be-
lief in an improvement in the anthracite coal
traffic for the coming fall lifted that group to
a higher level, the movement being especially
marked in New Jersey Central. Western
Union showed notable gain on prospects that
in business.
Total sales of stocks today were 377, 9O5
shares, including: Atchison, 5000; do pfd..

MARKET SUMMARY.

CHICAGO, Aug. Wheat led NE way to
a general decline in prices on the board to-
day. Foreign markets failed to respond to
the advance in wheat hero yesterday, and
the cash sales were very moderate Wheat
declined 1$s0112c, corn &c, oats PC, pork
nc, lard &c and ribs 71Ac. Liverpool quota
tions were from ed for September to sd for
December lower than they closed the day
before. That was the reason of decline
here Of Zee per blu to begin with. September
which was bringing 771sc, as the session end
ed yesterday, started with sellers at from
761s976Ac. A moderate amount of short sell
ing was evident on the first bulge to 1880
and grew In proprtion as the session pro-
crossed. Chicago receipts were IT'S cars. of
which 13 were new spring wheat Minneanolis
and Duluth reported receipts Of 1873 carloads
against 274 the corresponding day last wear
The amount inspected out of store was 265. 900
bu. About the only bearish feature in the
mornings news was the report of the Kan
sas crop, giving the vie as so, $50 0G0 bu com
pared with 30,709,000 blu the year before.
The South Dakota wheat crop was privately
estimated at 80, 000, 600, the governments esti-
mate for the year before was 1853, 900 bu.
The startling rumors to the effect that the
Russian government intended stopping wheat
exports were discredited owing to the appar-
ent weakness in the foreign marts. Near the
end Of the session the Paris market was re-
ported 2l4Q6Ac per Blu higher. A 7zc rally fol-
lowed, but the quotations were looked upon
as an error and had little effect. September
wheat closed at 1880.
1t was another day Of liquidation in corn.
september opened at from 26% to 265so, de-
cIned to 263sc and closed at that. A fair
business was done In oats. September opened
