CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-For few minutes fol- lowing the opening in Wheat it looked as if the dollar mark for May at last to be reached. There was hardly any Wheat offered for sale on the curb. and this condition also prevailed when the regular market opened. Re- ports that Letter had contracted with the Le- high road for the moving of 2.o00. 900 bushels of his Wheat to the seaboard came from New York. They were not substantiated but the report rapidly spread that May Wheat is al- most completely tied up by Letter influences, and when the market opened there was a rush of anxious shorts to get under cover. May Wheat closed yesterday at 9SMQ9SAc, opened to-day at 96asQ9Sssc. Even at. this substantial advance the market was almost bare of offer ings and the price was bid up steadily to 99%c. A peculiar feature of the advance was the number of stop loss orders in short Wheat
 Wheat began to come out after ''call'' price,
 991sc. had been passed. but offerings were eagerly accepted and the market did not hesl- tate much until 99&c had been reached. This price brought out a lot of Wheat from com mission houses and May dropped back to 99k C.
 There it hung for time Argentine cables repeated yesterday reports of poor thrashing returns and lower exportable estimates A lit- tie before midday the price shot up again under d renewed demand from shorts, and May got to 991sc before the reaction game Letter had sold no Wheat during the day. On the con- trary he credited with buying a little

EXPLANATION.

The arrow flies with the wind. The top fig ures at station indicate maximum temperature for the days; those underneath it, if any the amount of rainfall, of melted snow in inches and hundredths during the past twelve hours Isobars, or solid lines connect points of equal air pressure; isotherms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The word high means high barometric pressure and Is usually accompanied by fair weather: low refers to low pres sure and is usually preceded and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains. Lows" usually first appear the Washington coast When the pressure is high in the interior and low along the coast and the isobars extend north and south along the coast. rain is probable :; but when the low is inclosed with isobars of marked curvature rain south of Oregon is i'm probable. With a high in the vicinity of Idaho and the pressure falling to the Cali fornia coast. warmer weather may be expected in summer and colder weather in winter. The reverse of these conditions will produce an opposite result.

EASTERN MARKETS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK Feb. 15.-To-day's sharp rally in stocks is to be attributed to the covering of short contracts put out in yesterdays furry. Buying was said to be heavy for Washington account which heavy seller yesterday. Yesterdays losses were more than recovered in most cases, notwithstanding a smaller vol ume of business to-day There st least one period of general reaction during the day, but it was of short duration and declines reached small proportions. There was also profit taking in a few special stocks. which did not affect the general list to a noticeable extent American securities continued to be favorites on the London Stock Exchange. where prices of Americans were marked up with a distinctly confident tone before the opening here, and London continued a buyer here even after prices had advanced to the London parity. Much stress was laid on this as indicating a definite change in the attitude of the British investing public toward Amer ican securities. They were persistent sellers of Americas during all of last summer and during the subsequent rise, which has been almost continuous since November. They now buying American stocks at prices many points above where they sold This buying is regarded far more significant on account of the higher rates of money in London com pared yvith New York, and the heavy balance of exchange still known to be outstanding in favor of this ceuntry. In Paris Spanish 4s de- clined on fears of strained relations between the United States and Spain, and American securities declined on some of the Continental exchanges, but London needed none of these considerations and continued buying at ad- vancing prices. Foreign exchange begins to reflect this buying and the demand for ster- ling to-day declined one-fourth and cable transfers the amount Metropolitan Street Railway showed continuance Of yes terday's weakness after an early period of strength. and dropped four points. It sub sequently rallied, but closed to-day with sharp loss. Other local securities were strong Minnesota Iron was conspcuously heavy and Lake Shore ruled below last ngth's price. There were few losses shown by conspicuous stocks, but the general level of prices at the close was very materially higher In the act i've list net gains of between and two points for the day frequent.

THE DANGEROUS sEALsKIN.

Perhaps the safest and timeliest course for contemporary owners Of sealskin furs is to lock them up. in strong box, ana ana sit on the box and call for help. The stories of the experiences and suffertngs of persons who have recently been caught with sealskins on them are very terr1fy- above suggested. It Is proper to say though, that proprietors of sealskins are fin no real danger so long as they Keep away from Uncle Sans Custom houses. Hereditary sealskins may be worn with impunity in the country without any real hazard of arrest or police surveillance. through the Custom-house that the rub comes You must then either produce Custom-house permit emitting you to bring that particular hide back into the land of liberty, or you must be prepared with convincing evidence about the pedi- gree, gender and former residence of the seal; who caught it; who killed 1t; who dressed it; who made it up, and many other biological and biographical details. If your story and your evidence hang to- gether you may bring in your skin. but the chances are that you will think your self lucky to escape without it.
 The new treasury regulations which re- quire all this red tape are well adapted to make the use of sealskins by travellers to or from the United States excessively unpopular. They make the most trouble on the Canadian frontier. where as win sealskins much more than in the lati- tude of New York There may be some solace for some persons in the recollec- ton that all the trouble about sealskins is due to Canada, and that there is a sort of propriety in letting the Canadians and their visitors experience most of the con- sequent inconvenience. The hitch about that, however, Is that the folks who hunt the seals and the folks who wear the skins are different people, without special community of interests or mutual sympa- thies. The ostensible purpose of the regu- lations is to keep out of this country skins of seals killed in waters of the Pa cific north of the 18th degree of north latitude. which is the district as to the regulation of which the United States and Great Britain cannot agree.-Harper' S Wnol

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-The Evening Post S London financial cablegram says: All the stock markets here dominated to-day by politics. Americans by Cuban affairs and other markets by the general outlook
 Americans opened over the parity, gave way rallied on reports that Spain had issued an apologetic letter, relapsed in the absence of information of the report, and finally closed rather firm New York support. Copper shares were strong Paris buying. It Is diff- cult to fathom wholly the reason for the fall in the prices of gold The reported reason however. Is apprehension that Russian and other continental demands will be less press ing in the future. The slightly easier tone on the money market was partly due to this de- cline in bar gold
