Grand Onera House.


 At the Grand opera house the last three days this week, with matinee Saturday, is Elmer E. Vance's drama tization of Robert Louis Stevenson's sea novel. Treasure Island" It is a very peculiar fact that no one has ever before brought out an adaptation of this book, for it has for many years been the pride of boys from ten to eighty years of age, and was consid- cred one of the greatest books. told in most excellent language and picturing so vividly to the mind scenes of trag- edy and blood-thirsty wickedness with out conveying a single thought of it's untruthfulness. MT. Stevenson in Treasure Island'' has shown a won derful faculty of being dramatically in teresting without being vulgar in speech. The scenes in this play are taken from the book-which has been followed as nearly as possible with the exception of two instances, which were positively necessary to make success full play. In the first act Mir. Vance graces Squire TrelaWney with a daugh- ter and a pretty little love story; in the second he has graeed the Squire also with colored servant, which brings good comedy. The one woman of the piece has a life entwined so cleverly among the lives and charac- ters of the more blood-thirsty pirates and seamen that it immediately appeals to the fancy and to the heart-strings of the more sentimental.
 The colored servant keeps the audi ence in an uproar continually through out the performance. The cast has been especially engaged for this-its first season-and has proven rennarka- bly clever in the parts constructed for the various members. The scenic and especially in the htird act, when big storm scene is very truly represented. George Klimt and Alma Hearn are playing the leading parts in the new melodramatic production, "hTe James Boys in Missouri" a play that tells a romantic love story beautifully. This production will be seen at the Grand opera house on Monday, Tuesday and ] Wednesday next week, with matinee l Wednesday,.
 "A Modern Magdalen," a new and original play by Haddon Chambers, which was produced by Amelia Bing- ham last season at the Bijou theater, New York, proved to be the sensa- tional success of the theatrical year, totaling a run of over 200 nights, will be at the Grand opera house on Thurs day, Friday, Saturday, February 1s, 20, 21, with matinee Saturday. Among the prominent members of Miss Bing- hams company are Roselle Knott, and that sterling character actor, w. J. Ferguson, together with brilliant ar ray of players as follows: Hobart Smith, Daniel Jarrett, Harry Milford, George Spink, Bernard Mcclure, Fred erick Leet, Robert Dudley, Katherine Fisher, Laura Osborn, Marion Johnson, Alice Brahan.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE demand for

firm and more active.
PARIS, Feb. opened steady on

NAY DROPS ONE CENT ON BEARIsH NEWS
oats and PrOvisions show No Change,
but torn Fails on Three-Eighths
of one Cent on Heavy
Liquidations.

CHICAGO, Feb. 1.-THE news in general
was decidedly bearish In the wheat pit to-
day and heavy liquidation caused weakness
in that market, May closing lc lower. May
corn was of &C. while oats were UNI
changed. Provisions ruled steady and the
May products closed unchanged.
Wheat was active early in the day, but
later became dull, and the volume of trade
was light during the last half of the SEES
sion. The principal bear factor was the
report from Liverpool stating the conti-
mental demand appeared to be lessening and
that the supply mad o~vertaken the demand
AS a result OF this influence a large amount
of long wheat was thrown on the market
and a break of lc followed, considerable
short selling adding to the depression. May
sold down to sac. after opening a shade
higher to a shade lower at 79h479Mc, and
the close was near the bottom at 7ShqIS&sc,
q loss Of 1c from yesterdays close. Clear
ances of wheat ana flour amounted to R,tN
bu. Primary receipts were $4,000 bu. Min
neapolis and Duluth reported receipts. OF
ass cars, which. with local receipts OF ~
cars, none Of contract grade. made total
receipts for the three points OF @7 cars,
against 236 last week.
Corn was Influenced to some extent py
the weakness in wheat, the market becom-
sing easy after a slight upturn early IN the
day. There was a fair advance early on
cables and unfavorable weather, but the
small export demand and the. decline in
wheat caused considerable liquidation and
the close was easy. Commission houses we're
the best buyers and bought freely on the
break. May closed &c lower at 459sc, after
selling between 45%c and Hc, Local re-
ceipts we're 26S cars, with none OF contract
grade.
Trading In oats was light and the weak
ness in other grains Influenced prices, the
close being about steady, after a firm OPEN
ing. The unfavorable weather was an
early bull factor. May closed unchanged
after ranging between 37hc and 3I%qSfbc.
Local receipts we're 12 cars.
Trading in provisions was dull and the
sentiment I'm the pit about evenly divided
and little change In prices was manifested.
Tine closing was easier on lower prices
of hogs. and shorts took advantage OF the
decline TO cover. which kept prices steady.
Final figures on the May products were un:
changed, May pork closing at 1850, lard
at So IS and ribs at 500.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow; Wheat,

CATTLE-There was another heavy run
of cattle here today, but still the market
was not a great deal lower than yesterday.
Trading was very slow from start to finish,
50 that. 1t was late before the bulk was
disposed of. 2
A good proportion of the receipts was
again beef steers. The market, was I'M
even and could be quoted all the~Way from
steady to &c or 10c lower than yesterday.
The more desirable punches in most cases
brought right around steady prices, but the
common stuff was extremely hard to dis
pose of at any price and as a rule had to
sell a little lower. Packers were very in
different buyers, as they have all the
dressed beef on hand hat they need for
present requirements, and as a result 1t
was a hard matter for sellers 20 get the
buyers TO raise their bios.
The COW market was not a great deal
worse than yesterday. In fact, there was
a little more life to the trade. but the
prices paid were so uneven that II is difl-
cult to quote the market. Some statesmen
thought they got as good prices as they
did yesterday, while others said they had
to sell lower. The situation could proba-
bly, best be described by calling the mar
ket steady to weak.
Bulls, veal calves and stays all sold at
not far from steady prices with yesterday.
The stocker and feeder market was again
slow, with the tendency of prices down
cattle seems to have cut down the demand
for feeders from the country, and as a
result prices have suffered to quite an ex-
tent. The market today was steady to a
shade lower. Representative sales:
