GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Nov. 29.-Wheat ruled dull.
There was little disposition to trade,
owing to the Inactivity of the leading
long, and while the early market was
a trif1e better than yesterdays close,
it gradually weakened. and the close
was near the bottom. The weakness in
corn was a depressing influence, and
continued liquidation helped take down
prices. December opened unchanged to
&c lower, at 74B to 741a, n declined
until 1914 was reached. The close was
#41c lower, at 73K@73%. May closed
sc lower, at 75A. after selling between
75%@75% and 1917.
Corn was firm at the opening, the
wet weather throughout the corn belt
deterring the free movement of the
grain. Scattered liquidation, however.
soon caused a sharp decline, but COW
ering by shorts brought about a rally.
ranging between 53A and ssh. May
closed A@%c lower, at 49, to 1885.
There was considerable selling in
oats. and in the absence Of support,
weakness developed, and the close was
lower. December closed lose lower,
at S0b, after ranging between 5000
BIZ.
Provisions were strong early on small
receipts of hogs and higher prices at
the yards, but free selling by brokers
caused a decline, and the close was
easy. January pork closed unchanged,
at 1885; January lard 21zc lower, at
9.52kz, and ribs also 2Ke lower, at
S.171a.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

cent alleged forecasts circulated by

develop animation, owing to a general
desire to see the bank statement before
making commitments.
There was a splitting out Of stocks
when the statement appeared, but sup
porting orders were met, n the mar
ket reacted and closed steady. The
decrease in cash vas less than antici-
pated from the movements. of money,
but the increase in loans was the dis
quieting feature. 1t is said that in
terror banks have been calling loans
placed in this market earlier in the
season, and the demand upon the local
banks for accommodations has thereby
E increased The free loaning here
by interior banks early in the season
gave rise to the hope that they were so
largely supplied that the usual Interior
demand for moving the crops would
be less than usual this season. The
accommodations then offered, however,
have been largely recalled. interior
loans in New York were estimated at
n time at $50, 600, 900 to 500, 900, 900, and
are said to be now less than $50, 900, 600.

PELS A FEELING OF DISGUST.

NEW YORK, Feb bob Fitzs;mmons
says he is Disguised with Champion JET

two greatest pugilists IN the world IS
practically off.
F1tz and Jeff were to have met to-
morrow at noon to sign articles of agree
ment, but the lanky eX-champion says he
viii not be present at the proposed meet
ing place. He declares that the cham
pion wants too much from him in arrang-
ing the match, and that under existing
conditions he can see no reason for a
meeting
The money question was what brought
matters to such head Jeffries all along
has insisted that the winner take all the
purse, or the purse be divided on 70
and Is per cent basis. No other terms
would satisfy the champion, and to that
Fitz would not consent. He has almost
demanded that the purse be split equally
between himself, Jeffries and the club
holding the bout.
A prominent sporting man said yestsr-
day afternoon that somebody is trying to
crawl out of a match is certain. Jeffrie5
demands appeared more fair to the sport
ing public than Fits AMI the 1atters re-
quest that the money be divided equally
has led many to believe that the ex-chapl-
pion knows he has no chance of beating
the man who once before conquered him.

January, 1901, by 10 in number, but show

NEW YORK, Feb. Z-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say:
Trade developments this week have
been largely favorable. All the meas
uTes of legitimate trade point to January

ures it is true, were larger in number,
but the increase was all at the South,
from which reports have been poor, but
show slightly more /. hOneful trend,
since cotton has taken it's move upward.
The general level Of prices moved slight
ly downward during January ON account
of lower prices of speculatively -dealt-in
cereals and hog products and heavy
decrease in crude rubber and some chemi-
Gals. Most Of the decline in food pro-
ducts has been recovered since Feb. l.
The close of the week finds confident
feeling prevailing in nearly all lines of

been the enlarged buying by Southern
and Southwestern jobbers at Chicago

Southern railway has gone abroad fer

reaching Pittsburg. and brisk import
ing movement is looked for. This has
promptly been reflected in advances at
foreign markets. Hardware IS very ac-

ter its excited fall and no less excited
rise, has steadied at light advance on

BUSINESS IN THE WEST is GOOD
Railway Earnings Still Growing Manufacturing
Is Increasing Famine in the Pig Iron
Market Produce Pits Are Quiet

NEW YORK. Feb. Z. r. G. Dun's
weekly review of trade tomorrow will
say:
Interruption to railway traffic and out
door work by severe storms was the only
unfavorable factor in the business situa-
ton during the past week, while manu-
featuring activity increased and distri-
button through. retail channels was I'M
diminished Reports from the West are
generally encouraging, but few Southern
points are slow to exhibit Improvement.
Railway earnings continue their monot-
onouS record of increase for January,
gaining ~ per cent over last year and 24.2
per cent over 1850. The fourth weeks
earnings We're somewhat reduced by bad
weather.
famine conditions exist in the market
for pig iron. 1t is doubtful whether there
was ever time in the history of the ma
ton when this metal was so scarce. If de-
liveries are wanted before July /, it is
often necessary to pay a premium and
consumers have been compelled in some
instances to place orders abroad Efforts
are being made to repurchase iron sent
abroad last year, since that may evade
the duty. German biIIets are still arriv-
ing, but the market abroad is advancing,
which will tend to check the movement.
Structural material supplies are utterly
for supplies that an order for rails may
go abroad.
In the light OF these reports it is not
surprising that exports Of iron and steel
fall off and foreign contracts receive
scant attention.
Activity is general at shoe shops,
particularly in the West. and New Eng
land factories are shipping at the rate
of 9 per cent more than last year. No

advance, but there are still buyers who
prefer to accept a poorer quality at old
prices.
Print cloths have risen slightly and all
lines are firmly held Exporters are bid
ding for coarse colored cottons, but in
these, as in most grades, buyers and
sellers are far apart in their views of the
right prices. The situation appears to
favor holders.
Compared with the erratic course Of
the cereals during the preceding month
or two, produce markets have been
quiet this week In the case of corn
there are many expressions Of faith in
lower prices without aggressive specula-
ton on the short side. There was no
support in Atlantic exports Of 122,963
bu, compared with 1878 62 a year ago.
Heavy storms curtailed the interior
movement to ,992. 500 bu, against 5.016.S36
last year. Exporters of wheat evince
a disposition to wait for easier terms
but shipments of old orders were 4,421,-
296 blu. against 1881 a year ago
Among the other staples cotton receiv-
ed a little support, Notwithstanding lib

mercia1 failures during January exhibit
an exceptionally large number Of in

of defaulted liabilities. In manufacture
