LIVE STOCK.

Chicago, January 26.-The market
for cattle to-day was active so far as
good droves were concerned, at strong

previous year. Aggregate receipts at
western primary markets were report
ed at SIS, 900 bushels, whereas 100000
bushels was the total a year ago.
Foreigners were largely short on
May wheat here and in New York.
One commission house that does a
large foreign speculative business was
reported to have called margins from
European customers up to soc a bushel.
Many European shorts were said to
have sent orders ito buy in" the wheat.
The announcement of this caused the
greatest excitement and as orders kept
coming from all quarters to buy wheat,
May shot up 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 IN
side of fifteen minutes May tumbled
back to 77sc, but as quickly started
in the upturn again. The advance was
cut short by the bell sounding the end
of the session and May closed at T5c.
There was a broad general trade in
corn with prices strong under The IN
fluence of wheat. Wall street fur-
nished the bulk of buying orders, but
any material advance vas checked by
heavy selling from the country. Re
ceipts were SIS cars, but any effect
this might have had was offset by the
excellent export demand. May opened
A@Kc higher at 38B@38Bc, declined
to 3Shc, rose to 39Bc, then settled
back to 38Ac sellers at the close.
Oats followed corn closely, paying
very little attention to wheat. There
was a large business transacted, with
comparatively few outside orders. Dur
ing the last hour there was a good deal
of excitement and May started to climb
rapidly, but in the last fifteen minutes
profit taking caused a decline from the
top. Receipts were 225 cars. May
opened a shade higher at 2S1sc, sold at
2S3Bc, advanced quickly to 29c, then re-
acted to 2S%c at the close.
Heavy buying of pork by a group or
commission people strengthened pro-
visions. Packers sold freely an ac-
count of liberal receipts of hogs n
easier prices at the yards. May pork
opened TIC higher at $1,000, declined
to S1O.421a, advanced to $10.62R, then
reacted to $10.57R. The range in lard
and ribs was very narrow.
Estimated receipts for Friday:
Wheat, 166 cars; corn, 575 cars; oats,
21O cars; hogs, 81 1000 head.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

METAL.

New York, January 26.-More or less
irregularity was noted in to-day's mar
ket. The feature of the session was L
sharp change of front in tine, under
less favorable news from abroad and
increased offerings. The other depart
ments showed we'll sustained strength
and a fair amount of activity. Copper
attracted the larger share of attention
in this respect and led in the upward
move. At the close the Metal EX-
change called pig iron warrants firm
at $3.50 nominal; lake copper strong
and higher at $1,000 bid and S16.25
asked; tin easier at S24.25 bid and
$24.50 asked; lead strong and higher
at S4.35 bid and $4.37h asked; spelter
firmer at S5.65 bid and S5.75 asked.
The brokers' price for lead is $4.10, and
for copper $3.50.

His Office Turned Into a Veritable bower

Special to the Register.
Washington, D. c., January 26.-In-
ternal Revenue Commissioner Scott,
Senator-elect from West Virginia, re-
turned to the city and to his office in
the Treasury Department this morn
ing. All day long he was the recipient
of flowers and CONGRATULATIONS. By
afternoon his resembied a mower
garden. The choicest of cut hoWers
were sent by the bureaus in his depart
ment and by friends and admirers
throughout the city. The clerks under
Mr.. Scott were especially lavish in
showing their appreciation at the ele-
walton of their chief. Mr.. Scott made
a number of short speeches to the
clerks, who called in squads to present
flowers and congratulations. Mrs.
Scott was also the recipient of many
beautiful boquets.
Mr.. Scott was invited to call at the
White House and went there this af-
ternoon to receive the congratulations
of the President. Mr.. Scott will hand
in his resignation to take effect about
the first of March. In the meantime
it is likely that a fight will be made
for his position. West Virginians will
claim that they should have the nomi-
nation of his successor. It is under
stood that both Mr.. Scott and Senator
Elkins will ask the appointment of A.
B. White, who is now collector of in
ternal revenue for West Virginia. Mr..
White managed the campaign for Mr..
Scott and is recognized as an able man
and astute politician.
Representative Walter Evans, of
Kentucky, was mentioned to-day for
the prospective vacancy. He was de-
feated for reelection in November. He
was formerly commissioner of internal
evenu
Congressman Dovener has also re-
turned to the city from Charleston.

showing Of a net increase for Decem-
Der Of 1885, 900. Northern Pacific and
Union Pacific displayed strength, al
though the latter eased off consider
ably on limitations that the Wander
bilt deal was suspended for the pres
ent. Other railways displaying es-
pecial strength were Reading and
Southern preferred. Among the in
active shares st. Louis, Southwestern
preferred and Minneapolis & st. Louis
were features of strength, while Long
Island rose 4 points and st. Louis &
San Francisco first preferred advanced
81, and over 3 points for the COM
non and second preferred. M%etropol-
itan continued it's sensational adj
vance of yesterday, jumping liz
to 81 OH, but in the final dealings
reacted to 81 17h. Among the
Flower stocks, Brooklyn Transit,
Peoples Gas and Federal Steel pre-
ferred at one time made notable
gains. Sugar, Glucose, Rubber, Pacific
Mail and Tennessee Coal & Iron were
likewise strong features among the
s~pecialties. A number of l~ow-priced
stocks moved up sharply. The ease
Of money which is the backbone of
current high prices, is shown by the
quantities of funds offered for long
periods on exceptionally easy terms.
1t was reported that money had been
offered at 8 per cent for a year and
that large sums were being received
from all parts of the country in New
York. Unemployed balances in COZ
siderable sums were loaned to repre-
sentatives of foreign interest at about
2h per cent for ninety days. Northern
Pacific and Chesapeake & Ohio were
purchased for London account while
other American securities were traded
in both ways. A number of commits
sion houses did the largest business
to-day that they had 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 a ready
market at advancing prices. The
general market was strong throughout
with the demand embracing a large
variety OF issues.

PRODUCE.

Chicago, January 26.-Such an en-
ormous business as was done in the
wheat pit to-day has not had its
counterpart the present season and it
is questionable if as general and heavy
a trade was done in a day during the
historic Letter deal. Aggressive buy
ing under the leadership of Wall street
operators at one time during the day
forced May wheat up 412c over yes
terday's close. Heavy realizing near
the end of the session caused a reac
ton and May closed with a net gain
of 2Bc. Corn advanced 3sc and oats
A0$8c. Pork left off 15c higher and
lard and ribs 215c each.
The bullish sentiment in wheat which
got SO we'll under way yesterday, con-
tinued with increased energy at the
opening. Wheat leaped into the air
with a buoyant skip at the very start,
and offerings were scarce at 101Rc
over yesterdays closing price. Even
the few traders who for a minute or
two thought it worth while to risk 10
sell a little short at such an advance,
soon changed their minds and found it
difficult to reinstate themselves at &c
wv IN Nop INV Vi N0dA6SudS .
Buying orders from outside sources
were numerous, urgent and apparently
without limit as to price. The selling
was evidently confined for the most
part to local scalpers who had previous
ly bought at lower prices. The crowd
appeared to have adopted the alleged
Wall street policy to buy wheat when
it is weak, buy it when it is strong and
buy it all the time," May started at
from 76c to 76Rc, sold in heavy
amounts for about fifteen minutes be-
tween the opening figures and 75Bc,
chiefly around 76Kc, and then rose ex-
citedly to nc. In a few minutes it re-
acted to 763sc on realizing of profias by
longs, then rose again to nc, and
some little brought 771Sc on the second
advance.
Liverpool was apparently forced into
recognition of the strength prevailing
here, spot wheat opening Id up and
futures from 112d to lad.
The figures of the grain movements
in comparison with those of a year
ago were out of line with the course
of prices, except that Atlantic port
clearances of wheat and flour were
more liberal, amounting to 737, 900
bushels. Receipts here were 143 cars,
against 20 last year, and Minneapolis
and Duluth got 489 cars. compared with
