ate in opposition to the pending bill. 1t
was his first speech in the Senate and
he was given an attentive hearing,
particularly by his Democratic col
leagues. He declared that the pending
measure. so far at least as the tariff
provision was concerned, was indie
feasible on moral. economic and con-
stitutional grounds
Culberson said it had been main

in 1868 by Thomas jefferson, not in the

CHICAGO, February I3.-Damages
to the French crop and higher Paris
and Antwerp cables were the chief fac
tors in a strong and active wheat mar
ket to-day, but the edge was taken
off by sales for profits. May closed
1sc over Saturday. Corn closed I'M
changed and oats hc lower. The pro-
visions market was weak. May pork
closed at zoe, May lard 71sc and May
ribs 7k@10c down.
Some misguided traders sold wheat
early because Liverpool cables were
not encouraging and statistics were
regarded as bearish. May opened Ac
under Saturday at 6SA@6o%c, but
repented for it's weakness in short Or
der when the big advances at Paris
and Antwerp were received. May
climbed on IN active market to 69c.
AT this price three-fourths of the pit
had wheat for sale, but support was
active enough to prevent any great
recession, reports of damages to the
French crop lending an undertone of
strength to the market. May closed

ceipts were $4,000 bushels against

year ago. Local receipts were 113
cars, four Of contract grade. Allan
tic ports clearances in wheat and flour
were equal to 243,000 bushels. New
York reported five loads taken for ex-
port and three loads were sold here to
go to Paris via Galveston. Shippers
as a rule complained of a slack cash
demand. Foreigners were good buy
ers of futures.
Corn was strong on good cables and
small country offerings, but any clos
ing advance was prevented by the
profit taking sales of some longs. The
advance in freight rates, which went
into effect at the close Of trading Sat
urday, was a clog to shipping business,
but it was asserted that enough bus
mess had been booked under the old
tariff to keep the roads busy for a
month. Receipts here were 1,221 cars.

NEW YORK, February lathe
widest excitement prevailed at the
cotton exchange throughout the en-
tire session. No official record was
kept of the transactions, but it is es-
timated that they reached close onto
5000 Vol bales. This would be near the
record. The pendulations of prices
were frequent and violent. From the
closing of Saturdays market to the
highest point to-day, there was an adj
vance of "a to 80 points. The upward
movement, however, was by no mean
steady. Numerous periods of reaction
gave the market at times the e
ance of going to pieces under liquida-
ton and efforts to secure profits.
From the highest to the lowest point
of the day there was a difference of
10@1S points. But, in the main the
feeling was very strong. The advance
was based upon a sensational advance
at Liverpool; the English market
made a net gain of 6h @10c-64 pence
on the closing of Saturday. Orders
from Great Britain and the southwest
were for enormous quantities of cot
ton, chiefly to cover short contracts.
Southern buying orders were also
enormous and southern spot market
reports came as strong as at any time
yet. The local market for spot cot
ton was officially reported as being
3-16c higher while later sellers were
scarce at Ac advance. The market
was very active up to the close of bus
mess and finished very firm at an ad-
vance of 1898 points.
