and at the same time he broke the
worlds record for distance; Linton ac-
complished the feat in Il 2O-mile paced
race at Manhattan Beach in the pres
ence of $1,000 people.
For four miles it was Il pretty race.
Michael leading for Il few yards. Sud
denly Miclael's tire collapsed. Naturally
Linton pursued him and after iding two
laps Of fifth mile. Michael stopped and
pedalled slowly to 'his corner where
he changed his damaged wheel for a new
one. In the meantime Linton kept going
like the wine and before Michael came
back on the track was one mile ahead.
When Michael left the track he was
greeted with a storm of Kisses. Michael
met with another slight drawback on
entering his tenth mile. when his pacing
teams broke a chain. After Michael let
up. there was little interest in the race
outside of Linton's efforts to reduce tho
record. Although he tried hard. he could
al no new figures until the fifteenth mic
was reached when he started in by clip
ping five seconds off the record. He con-
tinucd ahead of the record every milo
until the finish. brca king the twenty mile
record by exactly seven seconds. He
could have made better time had he not
lost his pacemakers while rounding for
the last lap.
Not satisfied with the result. Michael
atonce challenged Linton for another
race ut twenty-five miles. Linton accept
ed and the race will he run at Manhattan

Grain Letter

(By Special Wire to T. G. Hewlett, Agent).
 Chicago, Jan. 22.-The action of Liverpool continues to suggest a very strong condt- tion of affairs in the foreign market. Open- ing cables were I'd higher on some fu- tures in the view of our failure to main tain values yesterday. Bradstreet's, how ever, reported exports from both coasts at 3926, ,000 bushels against 900 bushels last week and 5,229, 900 bushels last year. The shipments from Argentine for the week aggregated 312,0OO bushels against only about 30 900 for the corresponding week last year. The crowd was also somewhat in- fuenced by the fact that the Letter party absorbed all the calls yesterday afternoon. Northwest receipts were 35S cars against & cars last week and 176 cars year ago. Chicago receipts were fl cars, 6 of which were of contract grades. Predictions Of heavy snow over the unprotected wheat belt caused a more bearish feeling as the session advanced, and slight reaction took place. Trading as rule was rather narrow, and toward the close became unin- teresting as usual on Saturday.
 There was almost nothing done in corn and oats. The feeling was steady, with wheat.
 Provisions were quiet and fairly steady, helped by a strong hog market. Long hold CTS realized to moderate extent.

Markets by . Telegraph.

Street Railway was continued, the ad- vance of the week being 11A per cent. This was accounted for in published>state- ments of increase in the traffic. owing to the compilations of extensions of the sys- tems, but manipulation was very promi- nent in the dealings. Pittsburg, Cincin- nat, Chicago and St. Louis were promi- nent in the dealings, owing to excellent traffic statements, and scored net gains of 2A and AZ on the common and pre- ferred, respectively.
 The bond market for the week displayed a striking degree of strength in special cases, which embraced liens of compa- nies operating the Pacific Northwest. Some interest was attached to the speculation in Seattle, Lake Shore and Eastern firsts, owing to the fight for control of the prop erty by two leading railroad systems, which was reflected in an enhancement of 1874 per cent in the price of the issue.
