AT NEW YORK.
Ruling Prices in Produce at the Sea-
boards Commercial Metropolis.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2s.-The short element
in wheat was brought UP with q round turn
to-day. Outstanding accounts, after last
weeks aggressive work, were large this
morning, and in the general hustle to cover
the prices were elevated &c bushel from
Saturdays curb figures, May reaching
$1.005s before midday. Unexpectedly higher
cables gave the first bull impulse, and they
were followed later by a decrease of 344, 600
bushels in the visible supply, or twice as
much as anticipated. There was very little
wheat for sale to supply the urgent de-
mands, and this fact made the scare more
general in its character, some of the larger
interests being affected. AT midday the
market lost a small part of its advance un-
der realizing and became quiet. Foreign
buying, small Liverpool supplies. nalf-
million reduction in local stocks and de-
creased worlds shipments all contributed
to the early bull feeling The later phases
of the wheat market revealed few changes
in sentiment or undertone, closing prices
being 1A0115c higher than Saturday night
One of the most important Afternoon fac
tors was Rroomhall cable estimating OFF,
ciaI Liverpool stocks as only 100000 bushels,
or about half the theoretical weekly re-
quirements Expor. business was restrict
ed by the advance, and only five loads were
reported. The range on May to-day was
from 99c to $1.005s, closing SLOWS July
ranged from gllsc to $3.50 and closed at

Dry Goods.

NEW YORK, Feb. cat the opening OF the
week there is much of interest in the dry goods
situation. Buyers at second hands are quite
plentiful and jobbers again looking forward
to a lucrative week. At first hands the market
is firm. The demand coming forward for cotton
goods is still limited. Mail orders showed gen
orally fair results to-day. but store buying is still
limited in nearly all quarters. Staple cottons
continue irregular. The constant and consistent
demand which finds it's origin in the needs Of
the converting and finishing trades continues Il
hopeful featu of the market. In brown goods
the demand is quite regular. Wide goods are
also steadily active, with greatly reduced stocks
reported in some quarters. Export goods con-
tinue unsatisfactory in all quarters. Bleached
cottons are strong and an increased demand is
noticed in some lines. Print cloths show no
change. Prints generally in fairly good shape.
Sellers at first hands have moved the bulk of
their seasons goods and beginning to figure
on the fall trade.
FALL RIVER, Feb. 2s.-The print cloth mar
ket continues dull at 3-16c, w tn no demand.

Week Opens with Active Trade and
Few Fluctuations in Values.


Few Fluctuations in Values.
Business the wholesale streets yesterday was
quite active and the outlook for a large March
trade is very favorable, as under the weather and
bad roads Of February the volume was consid-
erably in excess of February, 1897. With good
roads the trade of the present month is likely
TO be a gratifying surprise. In prices there were
no important changes With but few exceptions
prices are very firm and in some lines hardening
in their tendency. On Commission row there is
a good deal of activity and prices fruits are
very firm. On vegetables easier prices prevail.
Eggs, on large receipts, are weak The poultry
market is steady. Provisions are in good request
at steady prices, The wool market is quiet and
prices very firm. The seed merchants report
their business improving.
The local grain market was more active than
last week. but still receipts are too light to make
the situation at all interesting All cereals were
yesterday in good demand at the following range

The Lehigh Valley Report

The annual report of the operations
of the Lehigh Valley Railroad COM
pany for the calendar year 1897 con-
tains much interesting information,
some of which we shall mention:
Earnings on coal hauiage decreased
last year $6S,155.74 and on miscellan-
eous haulage, s6S, S,6334S as compared
with the figures for 1896; but passen-
ger business increased to the extent of
$ll6,Oll.45. This was accompanied at
the same time by a decreased cost in
the passenger department of $685., $40,
showing clearly that some phenomenal
work has been done In this department.
We suspect General Passenger Agent
Charles s. Lee. ....
on the whole. while total earnings
decreased $s2,7SO.39 during the year,
operating expenses were cut TO the
amount Of s297,564, leaving the COM
pany's treasury $2l4,534 to the good in
the matter of the operating account.
With fixed charges at 5,5139 $40. operat- =
ing expenses at $14,4l3,3 $3.50, and total
income at S20,4S92O3. the road turns
the corner with $511, 1862 to show as net
profits-a better showing than most
persons expected and one which GER
tainly reflects creditably on the ad-
ministration OF President Walter.
