then gradually gathered strength, with the
trade much larger and more general. BY 1890
there was an urgent demand from all over
the pit, and half an hour from the close May
had reached &C. the highest point of the day.
There it held for a few minutes, then suddenly
the market collapsed.
During the advance there had been heavy
selling from some source. This was easily
taken care of for time, but finally the crowd,
figuratively speaking, turned tail and selling
orders came in a flood, breaking the market
in the last fifteen minutes of the session from
97c to 957s696c. The heavy liquidation had the
effect of turning a strong market into weak
one in a very short time. May closed weak
and nervous at 957sG96c.
Corn ruled moderately active and firm most
of the session. May ranged from 291zc to $3.50
29Ac and closed a shade higher at 29K @293sc.
Oats were moderately active throughout the
day. May ranged from 25c to 2424c, and closed
a shade lower at 2424@247sc.
The market for provisions was very actlVe
and new high records were made for the year.
Toward the close the demand became very
active and the market closed strong. Packers
were good buyers on soft spots, and shorts
covered freely At the close May pork was
TIC higher at $1,000; May lard &c higher at
So 10. and March ribs TIC higher at sou.
Estimated receipts Thursday: wheat "a

CHICAGO, Feb. 9.-After ruling strong until
within fifteen minutes of the close, wheat took
a sudden and inglorious fall Unloading, cred
tied by sCme to Cudahy and Letter, and By
others to St. Louis holders, started the mar
ket down and resulted in loss of &c adj
vance ana a fraction besides, the market
closing A0#c lower Corn and oats were dull
and active by turns, but closed with very
little change in prices. Provisions again ad-
vanced sharply, closing prices showing 59ll 72c
gains.
The early market for wheat was rather col
orless. May opened at a shade under yester-
days closing prices, first trades being mod
crate at 961k696Ac, but the market was
steady and held for while at those figures.
Then it slowly advanced, and ruled strong for
fully an hour May in the meantime getting
up to 9G5sG96Ac.
The early news if any favored a decline, but
as usual the shorts were apparently afraid TO
put any lines and as there was but little de-
mand outside Of the covering OF one fairly
large line. the market was exceptionally dull
for some time Early Liverpool cables showed
about I'D advance, hardly full response to
yesterdays advance here.
Northwest receipts were LIBERAL, at Mime
apolis and Duluth, reaching 3iS cars, against
264 last week and 2lS year ago. Chicago re-
CENTS were 67 cars, most of this number being
contract Yesterdays port engagements were
finally put at "a boat loads and continual
ton of the demand was looked for by some at
the opening. but. on the contrary, New York
reported cables bringing no buying orders
and adding that Argentine offerings were eX-
pected to increase shortly This news. how
ever. had hardly any effect on the market
There was a well defined Tumor in circula-
ton that sharp upturn was part OF the
Letter programme for the session. and this
undoubtedly kept many would-be sellers alo 2f.
After rising to $685. G96% C the market settled
back to about the level of the opening prices.

New York gossip, reported by H. Holbert &
Son, bankers and brokers, 341 Robert street
National Communication Bank building, st.
Paul:
1t is quite unlikely that an improvement
can be seen in the stock market while the
Cuban agitation continues. We would take
advantage of very moderate rallies to sell
long stocks.
We cannot find out anything definite but
there are rumors of important developments
in Northwestern in the near future regard
ing consideration of preferred stock which
will result favorably to holders of the COM
mon. We believe it is on this that the COM
mon has been bought.
The Union Pacific committee has no state
ment to make in regard to the rumor that
a settlement will be made with the govern
ment without foreclosure
