Metal Quotations-Wool Prices and
Movements-Grain and Pro-
duce-Review of Trade.

New York, Jan. 26.--Stocks made SUBJ
stantia1 progress upward to-day until the
closing dealings. when there was unusual
protit-takng, accompanied by vigorous
selling for the short Account, which sent
prices down an average of about a point,
but leaving fair gains for the day. Trans
actions were in excess of a million and a
history of the exchange. Expectations of
an early settlement of the peace treaty
and the firmness Of Americans in London
were important features in the markets
strength. The unrest in the Philippine
islands was passed unnoticed and has no
! appreciable effect on trading
Northern Pacific and Union Pacific dis
played strength, although the latter eased
off considerably on intimations that the
Vanderbilt deal was suspended for the
present. Other railways displaying spe-
ctal strength were Reading and Southern
preferred Among the inactive shares st.
Louis, Southwestern preferred and Min
neapolis G. st. Louis We're features of
strength, while Long Island rose points
and st. Louis & San Francisco first pre-
ferred advanced 5$, and more than
points for the common and second pre-
ferred. Metropolitan continued its sensa-
tlOnal advance OIL yesterday, jumping l1M
to z20A, but in the final dealings reacted
to 2171a
Among the lower stocks Brooklyn Rapid
Transit, Peoples Gas and Federal Steel
preferred at one time made notable gains,
Sugar. Glucose. Rubber, Pacific Mail and
Tennessee Coal and Iron were likewise
strong features among the specialties. A
number of low-priced stocks moved up
sharply.
The ease of money, which is the back
bone of current high prices. is shown by
the quantity of funds offered for long
periods on exceptionally easy terms. 1t
was reported that money had been offered
at per cent. for a year and that large
sums were being received from all parts
OF the country in New York. Pacific and
Chesapeake & Ohio were purchased for
London long accounts, where Americans
were traded in both ways. A number of
commission houses did the largest bust
ness to-day they have executed in many
years. Their purchases kept the traders
on the long side until the final dealings.
The feature of the bond trading was
the extensive demand for the middle grade
issues, which found ready market at
advancing prices. The general market
was strong throughout, with the demand
embracing a large variety of issues. To-

CHICAGO MARKETS.
PrOduce.

Chicago, Jan. 26.-The bullish sentiment
| in wheat, which got so well under way
yesterday. continued with increased en-
! ergy at the opening. Offerings were
scarce at 1G11ac over yesterdays closing
price. Even the few traders who for a
| minute or two thought it worth while to
FISK selling little short at such an adj
vance soon changed their minds and
found 1t difficult to reinstate themselves
| at &c above the top price of Wednesday,
Buying orders from outside sources were
numerous and urgent, and apparently
without limit as to price. The selling was
evidently confined for the most part to To-
cal scalpers, who had previously bought
at lower prices. The crowd appeared to
have made the alleged Wall street policy
to buy wheat when it was weak, buy
It when 1t is strong and buy it all the
time" their motto.
May started at from 76a761kc, sold in
heavy amounts for about 10 minutes be-
tween the opening figures and 75Ac,
chiefly around 76Ac. and then rose to 77Ac,
Liverpool was apparently forced into a
recognition Of the strength prevailing
here, May opening Id up and futures from
lR@lNd. Foreigners were largely short on
May wheat here and in New York One
commission house that does a large for
eign speculative business was reported to
toners up to Soc bushel. Many Euro
pean shorts were said to have sent orders
to buy in the wheat The announce
ment of this caused the greatest excite
ment and, as orders kept coming from
all quarters to buy wheat, May shot I'D
to 791ac. That was a gain of 41ac for the
day, and as the majority of the traders
had handsome profits coming, they took
advantage of the excitement to secure
them. The liquidation became so general
that inside of Is minutes May tumbled
back to 77fsc, but as quickly started on
the upturn again. The advance was cut
short by the bell sounding the end of the
session and May closed at 77R.
There was a broad general trading in
corn with prices strongly under the i'll
fiuence of wheat Wall street furnished
the bulk of the buying orders, but any
material advance was checked by heavy
selling from the country. May closed &c
higher.
Oats followed corn closely, and during
the last hour there was a good deal of
excitement and May started to climb rap
idly. but in the last Is minutes profit-tak-
ing caused a decline from the top
Heavy buying of pork by a group of
commission houses strengthened provi-
sions Packers sold freely on account of

IT'S VERY DOUBTFUL.
A Dispatch Says the Ftifpinos "'
IIaiIa Are Orderly.

HONCKONG. January 6.-The ne"spa-
pers here publish the following oispa.o"
from Ioilo, evidently from a flhpiho
source:
.s1yhen the Americans arrived at llolo
they found absolutely no looting upon 'ns
part of the Filipino force or conduct Oh
any kind unworthy OF civilized people
In conformity with their agreement with
the Standards, the Filpinos entered lloilo
IN, an orderly manner and formally MOIST
cd the Filipino flag. The Americans iounu
a good government formed, and mee'ins
with the complete approval of the foreign
residents. The post-office, customs anu
o,bar denartments we're working smoo'h-
w under the entire control OF the fhi
ninos. This disposes OF the allegations OIL
the inclination OF the Filipinos to loot anu
kill. The Filipinos occupied Ilollo on the
same humane principles when nave
guided their actions against their Spanish
oppressors."
The correspondent adds that the reports
If an opposition republic having been es-
tabiished, are refuted by the facts that
the Governor and general commanding az
Iloilo have assured the American dele
gates from the warships that they could
settle nothing without orders from the
National Government at Malolos.
