PREPARING FOR WAR.

New York, Feb. pa Herald dis
patch from Teheran, Persia, says:
British influence and prestige in Per-
STA has now completely vanished Rus
STA is victorious in the~ diplomatic con-
test SO long continued and the Shah,
whose health is now better than for
some time, is making warlike prepara-
tions in his anxiety to demonstrate his
antipathy toward Great Britain
The Grand Sirdariat has ordered the
speedy completion of the recruiting of
soldiers throughout Persia, according to
plans the carrying out of which has
been delayed for years. The reservists
also will be enrolled and all officers and
privates now on leave of absence will be
recalled.
The Order of the Grand Sirdariat con-
tains one curious clause. 1t is expressly
declared that natives of the provinces
of Kashan and Yeszda are excluded
from enlistment, since they are ac-
knowledged to be unfit to be soldiers
and great poltroons altogether"
1t is believed here that the Shah
prospective visit to the Paris exposition
of 1900 will be made chiefly for the pur-
pose of giving offense to Great Britain
and to the same motive is assigned his
majesty's determination to visit the
courts of St. Petersburg and Berlin on
his way to Paris.

New York. Feb. 2e-From the appear
ance of things in Wall street and the
views expressed upon the speculative sit
the stock market, it is Impossible to form
any other conclusion than that values
must work lower. 1t Is a Ions time since
conditions are so favorable to a bear raid
and with a little aggressiveness.. on the
part of the leading shorts, prices would
ments of the past few days have shat
tered confidence in a bull movement. and
and pools, so that it IS reasonable to ex-
pect the collapse of several of these COM
binations before the end of the week, I'M
less, of course, radical change for the
better takes place in the meantime, which

this character cause the SPECTATOR ana
investor to look with more or less suS-
picion upon securities of all kinds, and
are already loaded with stocks. This
company is a financial wreck and before
it is reorganized, the shares Will be sub
jected to treatment that will carry them
away below present quotations. There
is positive evidence at hand that promi-
nent insiders have been selling the stock
ever since the annual statement was sub
mitted- All hope of a dividend was dis
and the more shrewd holders Immediately
began to reduce their lines in way not
to arouse suspicion. There is no reason
to believe that this company VIII pay
dividends for the next two years, in fact
it is easy to find responsible people who
are willing to wager that it will never
pay the shareholders a dollar in the way
of dividends. The stock belongs down in
the SOS and the prospect of its reaching
that level grows bigger every day A fur
Their sharp decline in 7. c. & l. is looked
for before holders of preferred stock
agree to the proposition of the directors
to increase common issues by retiring
the preferred stock. The conditions of the
general business as reflected in the bank
clearings last week is conducive to the
development OF bear sentiment.

Grain Letter.

Chicago, Feb 26.-WHEAT-The action
of wheat today has shown continued Ii
quotation the part of holders and the
close registers another decline. There APP
pears some disposition on the part of Liv-
erpOol to call a halt, as the cables were
but little changed. while the Paris mar
ket was closed. The weak feature appears
sage showing a. large increase with
increase in our own visible. Flood trad
ers have been generally bearish and sold
quite freely on every break. Clearances
have shown up pretty we'll, being over
800 600 wheat and flour.
CORN-Corn has been weak and strong
within narrow range, closing steady at
siderable buying of May and July selling
credited to elevator concerns, which
brought prices about together. Gables
We're firm, clearanceS liberal, 174,000 and
country offerings very light Receipts $50
cars, $50 for tomorrow. Grading continues
very poor practically no contract Mar
ket holds remarkably firm considering
light speculation.
-Steadied by corn, but very dull
with the futures uneventful. Prices are
practically where they closed Saturday
and the entire range has been within Sc
Cash demand slow. Estimated receipts
for Tuesday, 275 cars
PROVISIONSH-I nclined to weakness IN
der good selling by commission houses
ing. The decline has been rather severe
and as there does not appear to be much
support to the market, it looks as If a
further shake out would be necessary be-
fore another good advance can be eX-
pected. Hogs receipts are liberal and on
side support is not of large volume.
