STOCKS DULL And LOWER
TRACTION STOCKS AND UNION PA
CIFIC CONSCIOUSLY WEAKER.
Call Loan Rate the Lowest for Long
Early Shipments of Gold.

NEW YORK, Jan so.-After ruling dull
and somewhat irregular during the greater
part OF the day the stock market in the
later trading developed pronounced re-
dictionary tendency. There was no special
feature of interest in the early dealings.
The professional element tried to make
capital out of the reported setback i'm the
Venezuelan negotiations, but the greater
ease and abundance of money and some
moderately sharp advances in a few
specialties tended to offset the effect of the
traders selling.
Liberal offerings by the banks carried
the cash rate to the lowest level In some
time. According to trustworthy reports
fully s20.000.000 was loaned at 3z per cent,
and perhaps half that sum at per cent. 1t
was stated that the greater part of this
money was put out by the Pennsylvania
Railroad, which recently made a large and
advantageous loan in this market This,
however, was denied and ii was elsewhere
reported that money which the trust COM
panies had been lending returned and bank
money loaned at the lower figure. The
rate for demand money fell to 212 late in the
day.
The noteworthy feature in the forenoon
was the sharp advance in st. Louis & San
Francisco on reports Oh an dilf3nce WITH
the Southern Railway. Much Of the buy
ing of those issues was said to be for Pitts
burg account. Considerable weakness was
shown by the traction stacks particularly
Metropolitan securities, Oh talk that an
other installment of the subscription was
TO be called for. Metropolitan Street-rail-
way suffered in sympathy, and Brooklyn
Transit, in which there will be change
of management soon, also was weak. In
the afternoon the entire list became I'M
settled under the leadership of Union Pa
cific and allied stocks, which were sold on
the news from Omaha of a serious hitch in
the negotiations between Union Pacific Off
cials and labor representatives. The clos
ing was weak.
Forecasts of the weeks money movement
indicated a gain of some $6.0O0,0O0 by the
local banks. This is less than was looked
for by students of the financial situation.
The rate for exchange advanced 10 points to
$3.50, giving rise to some discussion con-
corning the future movement Of the mar
ket at the time when the gold outflow or
dinarily set in. Those in touch with the
movement, however, intimated that 1T had
no unusual significance, the volume of busi-
standing the departure tomorrow of the
fast steamer which was expected some
days ago to take out considerable gold. To-
days rate. however, was several points
below the export level.
Business in bonds increased slightly, but
it also lacked a definite tendency. Total
sales at par value were $2,225,OOO. United
States bonds were all unchanged on the
last call.
Following are the days share sales and
the recorded price changes.

MohiIa paUfcfar


In these days OF competition I'm all lines
the tramp must use his brains and hustle
to get money just like others. New ways
and means of separating men from their
money are constantly being devised by
some tramp who Is, as most Of them are,
a student of humanity. But the smoothest
graft and an entirely new one was
worked in Mobile last week. The method
of operation was thus: About dusk, when
the Royal-street barber shop was crowded
with men. a tramp entered. He was bet
ter dressed than the average and wore a
hat that still retained evidence Of being a
good one. Walking up TO the proprietor of
the shop the tramp asked In a voice loud
enough TO be heard all over the small room
IL he might be allowed to use the wash
bowl and some soap and water.
Permission was given and he went 10 the
rear, where he bathed his face and hands
thoroughly. Then he walked up to the
man in the nearest chair and told hard
luck story. saying that he was trying TO
get an upward start I'm the world. The fact
that tramps and water do not as a rule mix
voluntarily made the man appealed TO think
there must be something In 6. tramp who
wanted to keep clean. so he handed over q
dime. Other men In the shop were appealed
to and all contributed something. The
tramp seemed very grateful for the money.
OF which he secured over a dollar, and he
feeling that they had helped worthy indi-
vidual. The game was discovered by one
of the benefactors, who by chance was In
another shop about half an hour later. The
same tramp was there and he had just nm
ished washing his hands and face for an
other round at this shop. IL Is graft
that would in nearly all cases be successful.
and the inventor of IL probably reaps .
good harvest at the sacrifice of only a lit
tie OF his dirt.

GRAIN PRICES ARE DOWN
LOWER CABLES AND BETTER
WEATHER THAN EXPECTED.
Heavy Argentine Shipments Depress
Wheat-January Pork the Only
Product to show an Advance.

CHICAGO, Jan. 30.-There was only a
moderate trade in wheat to-day, and the
market showed a lower tendency. May
closing at loss of 1Q1isc Corn was down
&c anu oats were off lsQAc. Provisions
closed easy, from shade to 15c lower.
There was little of interest in the trading
in wheat. and with no news to encourage
holders the selling was quite general
throughout the day. Liverpool cables were
weak and the cold wave predicted for to-
day failed to realize, the temperature
throughout the winter wheat belt being
only moderate. Liberal Argentine ship
ments were the main depressing influence,
being over 100000 bu for the week. COM
pared with $4,000 last week. The opening
on May was AG3sc lower at 7S14d7S2sc. and
there was early slump to 77AQU3sc. "A
better demand developed later In the day
and the price advanced to 7SAc, but re-
newed selling late i'm the session caused
another break, the market selling off TO
77izc, and the close was weak and near the
bottom, May being off 1q1bc at 71l9G77ssc.
Clearances of wheat and flour were 3S0.oo0
bu. Primary receipts were $4,000 bu,
against 397 900 a year ago. Minneapolis and
Duluth reported receipts of 257 cars, which,
with local receipts of 45 cars-none of con-
tract grade-made a total of 302 cars,
against 1913 last week and go a year ago.
Corn was rather quiet and an easier feel
ing pervaded the pit, the fear of a break in
wheat preventing much buying. The weak
ness in wheat was the principal bear factor,
though lower cables were partly responsible
for lower opening. Small receipts and a
good cash demand caused considerable
covering by shorts the latter part of the
session, but the final break in wheat
there was another reaction, the close being
about steady, with May off &c at 4i1sc,
after selling between 445sc and 451sc. Re-
ceiptS were 259 cars, two OF contract grade.
Oats were easy in sympathy with the
lower prices in other grains. and trading
was very light with no features of conse-
quence. The close was easy, with May
down 1sQEc at 36Ac, after selling between
36Ac and 36Rc. Receipts were 203 cars.
Provisions opened fairly firm on small re-
ceipts of hogs and higher prices at the
yards, but the early strength was soon lost
on liquidation by outsiders, while packers
also had lard and ribs for sale. Covering
by shorts in January pork caused an adj
vance of soc in that delivery, and the close
was up CSC at $1S.75. Everything else was
weaker, May pork closing 15c lower at S16.5
lard off 1219c at $9.421e and ribs shade low
er at $9154917k.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
So cars; corn, 265 cars; oats, 1876 cars; hogs,
200 head

PRETENDED TO BE A MOTHER.


How n Countess Is Alleged to Have
Secured an Heir for Aged Husband.
BERLIN, JAM J0-The Countess Isabella
Wesierska Kwilecki, who has again been
arrested and charged with pretending to
have borne a son six years ago and pre-
senting him as the heir to an estate at
Wroblewo, province of Posen. is fifty-seven
years of age and white haired, though still
an animated. brilliant woman. She was
ffty-one years old when the child was
born, and had three daughters. 1t is al
legged that the countess seemingly had two
ladies of high rank as accomplices. These,
whose names have not been disclosed. are
said to have procured the illegitimate son
of the daughter of a railroad Waterman in
Austria and at the proper moment to have
brought the baby to the countess's apart
ments here They went, it is asserted,
from the railroad station in a cab. gave the
driver a gold piece as a gratuity and en-
tered the house. one Of them carrying the
baby done up in shawl straps. with a

in the house before its birth an
nounced The servants of the countess, IL
seems, did not even know of the presence
of the child. Those nearest to the countess
took the birth in good faith.
The old Count Wesierska, who was in
fragile health and who was in Italy at the
time, telegraphed to the family doctor at
Posen to go to Berlin and assist in taking
care of the mother and child. The doctor
came to this city. but the countess would
not see him and sent the doctor word that
she had every necessary attention. When
the legitimacy of the child was first con-
tested the countess averred that she had
the services OF a midwife from Warsaw,
who has since died.
