LOCAL WHOLESALE TRADE
JANUARY WAS A VERY GOOD MONTH
IN MOST LINES.
Unusual Activity and Strength OF the
Produce Markets-Druggists Are
Busy-Grnfn Trade Conditions.

In the forepart of the month ended on
Saturday. trade was disappointing, but with
the finer weather of the past two weeks the
loss in trade was practically overcome, SO
that in the aggregate, the business of the
wholesale houses and Commission row
was fully UP to the usual January stand
ard. Produce merchants had good month.
The demand for poultry. eggs and butter
was large for winter months and prices
ranged high. Grocers have been busy, with
prices ruling steady at the range Of some
time past. Fluctuations in values are very
slight Dry goods houses had a quiet
month, but no more so than is usual in
January. They anticipate a revival of trade
with the coming OF February. Wholesale
confectionery houses also had a quiet
month. Druggists seldom do much bust
ness in January as in the month just
closed. Linseed oils. and paints have ruled
steady. there being but one change in lin
seed oil In the thirty-one days. Iron and
steel markets were fairly active. doing fully
as much business as is usual in January.
The provision market was never more ac-
tive in a domestic way than at present,
and prices most descriptions OF hog
products have ruled very firm.

In the United States Circuit Court, be-

come up a case that has its interesting as
well as amusing side. 1t is that of fat
fat, not stout--woman who got stuck in the
turnstile of an IL station, and in her
struggles to free herself moved the gate
back and forth. registering fare with ev-
cry kick, until the ticket seller was driven
frantic at the fares being run up, for which
he would have to be responsible.
He grabbed her and began hauling her
out on the installment PLAN Every time he
gave a yank she yelled and kicked, and the
gate moved and the fateful register regis
tered. When he finally got her out of her
embarrassing position she was in state of
collapse. and he had about forty fares on
his register. She didn't pity him one bit.
but said he had been too rough. She went
to bed for several weeks. When she recov-
cred sufficiently she engaged A. Hershfield

GRAINS HAVE A WEAK SESSION,
WITH SOME CLOSING STRENGTH.
Losses Are Small and Oats Finish
without Change-Heavy Break In
January Pork-May Lower.

CHICAGO. Jan. 31.-Trading on the Board

an easy opening wheat closed strong, with
May fraction lower. Corn also was a.
shade lower. while oats were unchanged.
Provisions were dull and closed steady
from 212c to sc lower.
Wheat was dull and trades were confined
within narrow range. The feature of the
day was the selling of July and buying of
May by commission houses supposed to
have been acting for the leader of the longs.
The opening was lower, on weak cables and
favorable weather throughout the winter
wheat belt. May being kQasc to hQsc low

early by discouraged longs at &c, the low
point, but later better support developed
on buying by commission houses and COW
ering by shorts. and the market became
quite strong. May selling up to 7%c. The
close was firm, with May a shade lower, at
INC. A fair export demand was strength

were 236 cars, none of contract grade.
Oats were also neglected, but In the alb
sence of any strong pressure prices ruled
firm. Cash demand continued good and re-
ceipts were rather light, 215 cars being re-
ceived here. The close was steady, with
May unchanged at 36Ac, after ranging be-
tween 36isQ364c and 36asc.
Provisions were dull and prices held
barely steady. There was no important
trade either one way or the other. Late in
the day sharp break occurred in the price
of January pork, which yesterday sold at
Sls, the support heretofore given that COM
