gence of the death of his brother,
Daniel Morris, of Virginia Ridge,
near Pattonsburg, Mo. The Pat
tonsburg Call of November 6 has
the following notice of the deceased:
"Uncle Dan Morris, we'll known
throughout the county and one o.
the old pioneers, and when young
man he did a great deal of labor
around the old Watson mill. He
was one of the oldest settlers. He
was taken bad again last Sunday
and continued getting worse until
Tuesday afternoon, when about 2
o'clock he breathed his last. He
was buried Wednesday in the Ellis
cemetery, west of Virginia Ridge
school house. The O6dfellows had
charge of the interment and their
beautiful and impressive burial
form was used. There would have
been large crowd in attendance,
but it rained all day.

WHEAT CLOSES FIRM AFTER
DAY OF DULL BUSINESS,

Corn Develops Considerable
Strength in Spite of Selling
by Commission Houses.

oats were 1sal4c lower. Provisions closed
irregular. the May products being from 2i2c
lower to 10a12I3c higher.
WHEAT.
Wheat ruled dull during the greater part
of the session and weakness prevailed until
near the close. when fair buying by COM
mis~sion-houses and local bidders caused an
upturn. and the close was firm. The OPEN
ing was easier on indifferent cables. May
being down a shade to l!sMhc at TSI774c.
Selling for Southwest account added to the
depression and the market declined. there
being no supporting features. and May sold
of to Tbs. The impression got abroad t ma
wheat around the low point. and this gave
some strength to the situation, which was
helped later by the strength in corn and
7s%tc May closed sc higher at 7SllsM4c.

showed an increase OF 10000 bu, compared
with q decrease a year ago of 1,7SS. 600 blu.

receipts 408 cars, against 1886 last week and

CORN.
After an easier opening the corn market
developed considerable strength and higher
prices prevailed throughout the day. in
spite of heavy selling by commission-houses
and short selling by scalpers. The market
was Influenced to some extent by the small
receipts, while a good cash demand was re-
sponsible for much of the firmness. The
close was firm. with May isGAc higher at
459sc, after selling between 45c and 45ssc.
Local receipts were 1856 cars.
OATS.
The increase in the contract stocks of
oats caused renewed liquidation in that pit
and the market ruled rather easy, although
a slight rally was made late in the day on
the strength in wheat and corn. Commits
sion-houses were the best sellers. while the
buying was scattered. The volume of bust
ness was small and no special features were
manifested. The close was easy, with May
" at 36Aq36asc, after selling be-
were III cars.

WALL STREETS BUSINESS
affected BY THE STORM.
MOVEMENT FOR HOLIDAY
SATURDAY SUPPORTED,
Industrials Again in the Lead, but
Those Who Started Campaign
Take Profits.

j New York. Feb. 1.-THE movement of
prices of stocks to-day was confused and
irregular. The interruption to the wire
service by the storm was given as one cause
for the dearth Of outside orders, but BUSH
ness from commiSsion-houses was at a low
level from a New York source. The general
approval accorded to the petition to the
governors of the Stock Exchange to make
Saturday a holiday, in addition to the regu.
lar Monday holiday, Is a sufficient indica-
ton of the small proportions of commits
s,on-house business at this time. The indus
trial stocks had a rather more prominent
place in the trading to-day, as they did yes
terday, but their price movement was very
spotty. The Spectators VINO inaugurated
the movement in those stocks yesterday
were inclined to take profits. This was con-
spicuously evident in the United States Steel
stocks and in Sugar. The operators seemed
to be prompted by the new antitrust meas
ures in Congress.
CAMPAIGN IN COPPER.
The bull campaign in Amalgamated Cop
per was continued this morning and that
stock was lifted an additional IA. but the
later reaction of the market left only a
small fraction of this gain. The rise of "a.
in Tennessee Coal was based on the in
creased earnings disclosed by the annual re-
on the property without any intimafion Of
early dividend disbursements did not seem
10 uetract from the favorable influence. The
1-point rise in Anaconda. with a reaction of
IA. was in sympathy with A~malgamated.
There was a notable demand for American
Locomotive late in the day. and its rise was
not fully maintained. Metropolitan Street
Railway led a further advance in the local
fractions. which was not held. The rather
active selling movement. which developed
midway of the session. was prompted by
the well-defined rumors that exports of gold
were being negotiated for Thursdays steam
er. No official Acknowledgement of the
truth of these rumors could be secured, but
the refusal to disclatm them by one or two
prominent international banking -houses
gave color to the report.
EXCHANGE HIGHER.
Sterling exchange advanced several points
here, but reacted a fraction of a centime
in Paris. The rate of time money here op-
crates as an obstacle to an outgo Of gold.
London was a light bu:er of stock here
to-day, and the fact that part of the Erie
convertible bond issue is to go abroad prom
Uses a supply of exchange. On the other
hand. the buying of grain for export to-day
way rather light, thus restricting the sup
ply of exchange. The question of engage
ments of gold tomorrow for export on
Thursday is still open. Damage to property
by the great storm was of some Influence
in prompting the light selling. The market
closed heavy at about the lowest.
There was heavy selling of.St. Louis and
San Francisco funding bonds. The market
generally was irregular. Total sales, par

TRACTION SHARES ADVANCE
ON INVESTMENT INQUIRY.
OFFERS OF TRANSIT ARE
EAGERLY TAKEN.
Bank Stocks Are Strong and Mis-
cellaneOus List Shows
Increased Activity.

On the local Stock Exchange afternoon
sessions were resumed yesterday. Though
trading was not heavy there was d fair
volume of transactions at the extra meet
ing. Transit was again the favorite at both
sessions, the bulk of the sales being at
s2a.S7ia. Small lots found ready sale at $50.
which was 81. cents a share above Mon
days close. United Railways preferred
was also a strong, card with a range from
sSS.2 to $3.50. The 4 per cent bonds were
wanted at $Si.75. but firmly held at S5.
Missouri and Commonwealth were the
only active issues at the early session. with
sales of the former at sl27.25 and of the lat
ter at 1912. State National advanced to
$2l0.50 and Mechanics was taken at $3.50.
American Credit Indemnity was sharply
on the upturn at $500. a net advance of s.
a share.
Prices were practically unchanged in the
afternoon. Transit again sold at $50 and
$2s.S7ila ard preferred at $50. 50. Ms souri,
Edison at $9 and Consolidated Coal at 81
were strong spots.
