St0ckS-To-day' stock market show
i'd signs of a struggle by the bulls to
sustain prices while they were taking

successful and SOLD large blocks of the
stocks which have been recent specula-
tive fayorites, without producing any
marked decline elsewhere in the list.
Northern Pacific is the only one of the
recent favorites which shows a net
gain for to-day, but the declines in the
others were not sufficient to uncover
aly large number of stop-loss orders.
The sharp gains in special stocks at
different times during the day were
evidently due to manipulation for the
purpose of sustaining the general mar

Chicago, January 2S.-Radical weak
ness was exhibited in the local wheat
market Friday, the first time in nearly
two weeks. Liverpool opened strong
at an advance of q to Id, but by 100
p. m had lost I'D on some features,
while Paris was only to 10 confines
higher, which aggregated S64,030 BUSH
els. Within the past two weeks ATgan-
tine has shipped almost half as much
wheat as it did all of last year, and
this fact had a decided effect on the
trading element A comparison of the
wheat imports into the United King
dom for 1897, and the countries for
which the importations were made
shows that imports from the United
States and Canada increased sc per
cent. while those from other export
ing countries diminished 5 per cent.
Northwest receipts amounted to 1894
cars against 1853 last week and 1874
a year ago. Chicago received 2o cars
only one of which was graded contract

Of selling orders, at those figures, re-

most Immediately Some of the heav-
lest traders were good buyers at the
decline, and with this support the
market reacted to 97c; at this point
early influences made themselves felt
again and realizing sales resulted in a
1ac loss. After noon. however, the
market took decided turn. Brokers
apparently acting under instructions
from the bull clique, started to pur-
chase everything in sight starting
with the January option, which adj
vanced sc to s1.10 per bushel. May
and July followed closely, the former
selling up to 9S1sc and the latter to
SSAc. Toward the close a l to &c
break occurred, the result of realizing
sales. Corn and oats were dull and
easy. There was moderate scattering
liquidation in corn, and reported sales
of 500, 900 bushels of oats for direct
export Provisions opened weak on a
