WOOL NJ ARKET.

Boston, Jan. 19.-The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow
Of the wool market.
"a more featureless week in the wool
market has not been witnessed in a long
time. Last year at this time the market
was very active. The difference in the
situation is shown in the fact that a week
ago the sales of wool since January 1,
1885, were 10,95s 900 pounds, against 1859,
900 pounds in 1897, whereas the sales in
the present time are 1885, 900 pounds,
against 1859, 7o0 pounds last year. AS a
matter of fact, the present volume of
business would a few years ago have been
considered very satisfactory. The enor-
nous transactions which characterized
the tariff year have made the earlier peri
cd seem quite remote Some persons, how
ever, are now awakening to the fact that
the market is at present in about what
may be truthfully called a normal condi-
ton. A feeling of confidence exists on all
sides. demandfor wool has been of a
general nature the past week, and the
sales for the most part represent stock
that has been absorbed for current needs
Prices are firmly maintained. and it
would be difficult to point out a locality
where concessions would be likely to be
made.
London, Jan. 19.-The wool auction sales
were continued today with a good at
tendance of buyers. The American buyers
also purchased the finest merinos, their
purchases yesterday and today amount
ing to about 1900 bales. The offerings to-
day were u 500 bales

BRYAN SERVES WARNING
Civil Service Reform Won't Last
Day With President.

Chicago, H., Jan. 19.-William Jen-
nings Bryan gave personal notice to the
Democrats of Chicago during his last
visit here that If ne is nominated for the
presidency in 1900. as he expects 10 be, he
would depend for election on Populistie
and free silver Republican. as well as
Democratic votes and if he won he in
tended to give the aforesaid Populistic
and free silver Republican allies a share
of the spoils.
The announcement was made about
o'clock in the morning. at the end Of Mr.
Rrvan's speech before the Bryan league,
at its annual banquet at the fremont
house The newspapers had already gone
TO press with the report OF Mr.. Bryan
speech. which had been furnished them
several hours before. and most OF the re-
porters had gone home. His set speech
was composed Of a lot OF somewhat time
worn free silver utterances. which his lis
teners had heard before, and expect 20
hear again. But al the end Mr.. Bryan
said he had something Of personal inter
est % them all TO talk about. and, al
though what he had to say provoked no

His hearers were ali practical politi-
clans and recognized the meaning u the
words. They mean that in case Of Bryan
getting into the white house Popuilsts
and free silver Republicans would come

MIGHT Be WORSE OFF
By Moving to Australia and
Paying Freight There
NEBRASKA RATE CASE
Is Not Worrying Railroad Men
Very Much.

Chicago. Jan. 1e.-In making COMPARE
son of railway rates in the United States
with those in other countries. the Railway
News says that II the roads in this coun-
try had been permitted TO charge the same
rates as the government lines in New
South Wales. the earnings of the roads in
the United States would have been in
creased by 1912, 900. The comparison
is based on the report of the commissioner
Of railways for the province of New South
Wales. ending September 80 last.
For the time being al lefforts TO revive
the Transcontinental Passenger associa-
ton have been called off. 1t is thought
by the roads most interested in the revi-
val of the organization that it is useless
to attempt TO get he roads again into
working order until after the settlement
OF the rates TO Alaska. II there is 10 be
a fight over the rates, it is not likely that
the organization could prevent it, and its
supporters say that they do not care TO
form an organization just for the pur-
pose of showing that it cannot do what
it was organized to do. After the Alaskan
matters are settled, it is likely the matter
will be taken up again.
All the officials of the western roads
are confident that the decision of the Ne
braka maximum freight BILL now pending
before the supreme court OF the United
State will Ibe in favor of the roads. They
have no information upon the matter, but
say they believe that the delay in the
handing down of the decision shows that
the court sees no reason to change the
existing order of things, and from this
they argue that the court will find that
the present conditions in Nebraska are
working no hardships upon the shippers
of the state. If the decision should be
against the roads. there will be some very
badly surprised officials in this city.
1t is likely thmat meeting OF the
Western Passenger association will be
called in the near future to consider the
question of rates to southern territory.
These are in a very bad state of democrat
ization, and unless omething is done in
the near future to remedy matters, it is
likely that an open war viii be ragged be-
tween the roads. The northern connec-
lions of the lines between Kansas City
and the Gulf of Mexico ports are becom-
ing very restless over the situation, and
they will take such steps as they can to
put the rates on a firm basis once more.
The matter will likely come up before the
meeting to be held the latter part of this
month. when the question of Alaska rates
will be considered in general mass meet

present seem satisfied to remain as spec
tators But the July option has been live
" enough for the past two days TO at
tract considerable trade, and those who
were fortunate enough to foresee or take
advantage of the 10c difference between
the two options by selling the May and
buying the July are fast piling up profits.
The May option does not even get near
enough to puts or calls to admit of any
scalping by the buyers of these privileges.
A good demand was noticed today for
both May and July corn on the break,
by the heavy traders. The country con-
tinues to hold its long corn and seems
willing to increase their lines on all de-
clines, rather than to let go of any Of
their holdings. The opinion generally pre-
walls that after little while corn will
see a much higher price. Oats were
bought readily today around 23&zc, and
were firmly held at that price.
