MARKET NEWS
NEW YORK STOCKS.

New York, Jan. 31-Extreme lasi- tude settled On the stock market to- day, seemingly as the afer effects of last welS's violent excitement. The dealings fell near to the point of stagnation for good part of the days session. In spite of the lethar- gy of the demand prices suffered little, the late selling coming after consid. erable gains had occurred.
 The professional element made one or two efforts to bring about a move. ment of prices but the lack of sue. cess drove them out of the market.
 The profession limitations of the market were indicsted by the sudden reversal of the days previous labor ious upward movement in the last half hour, when United States Steel and Union Pacific fell abruptly to 9 points below the close of Saturday.
 Bonds were steady Total sales par value, s2,S61 ,000.
 United States bonds unchanged on call.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago, Jan. 31.--Grain ruled lower at the close of the day, after ses- sion marked by fluctuations within comparatively narrow limits. Provis- icns advanced steadily through the day On strong demand
 For time the bulls had the best of the argument in the wheat market and May went up from $1.10h to $1111z.
 The close was weak, with May at $11012, Ac lower than Saturdays finals.
 In the corn pit eastern demand de- veloped The close was weak in all futures.
 Oats followed the same general course as corn. Strong demand and light offerings in the provisions pit caused a material advance all along the line, pork closing from 30 to 4Oc higher, lard from 221a to 25c higher and ribs from 221s to BOG higher.
 The principal buying was attribut- ed to packing interests, which entered the market early, despite comparative y large receipts of live hogs. The advance was practically uniform and was not seriously checked at any time. Closing figures on the January products were
 Pork, $20.94. BOG higher; lard, SIP 25c higher, and ribs, $1180. BOG high- CT than Saturdays final figures. The May delivery closed: Pork, $21.35, 40c higher; lard, $l1.031a, 221sc high CT and ribs, s11.621a, 25c higher than Saturday final quotations.

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York. Jan. 31-The cotton market was quiet, but generally stea- dier today as there was nothing in the news to confirm Saturdays rumors of an easier spot situation in the south and the close was steady at net advance of 6 to IA points.
 The opening was steady at "a decline of 5 points to an advance of points, near positions being lower, while lat CT months were relatively firm on numerous reports from the southwest claiming that the precipitation so far this winter had not been sufficient to put a good season in the ground in view of the abnormally dry weather of the preceding twelve months. Lo- cal professionals took the short side at the start and there was some irreg- ularity during the early session, but prices gradually improved on trade buying and a demand from foreign houses.
 The south did little selling here during the early trading but the of ferings were not aggressive enough ta suggest an easier spot situation and the market gradually firmed up dur
 ing the afternoon, when early sellers
 turned to cover and found very little
 cotton offering around the ring. After advancing to i4.S9 for March and HAS for May, or 15 points to IS
 points net higher, realizing caused a slight reaction, the close being few points off from the best, with March
 14.35 and May 14.41.
 Private wires received from various interior points during the day report ed no weakness on the part of the in- tericr holders and southern spot mar kets as officially rerorses e~' unchanged. The situation in Texas with refeernce ito new crop prospects is attracting a great deal of attention in the trade at the moment as that state is largely looked to for such in- crease as there may be in the yield. Precipitation so far this winter has
 been heavier than was the case lsst winter, but well known local houses are receiving reports claiming that more rain is urgently needed to put sufficient moisture in the ground 10 carry the crop through a possible dry growing season.

WAGING WAR ON RODENTS

Taking All Feasible Precnu-

washington. July 23.-While no case
of the human plague has appeared in
San Francisco in two years and four
months and no case OF rat plague has
been found there in year and six
months the deadly war of ex-
termination OF rats in the Pacific coast
metropolis continues without relaXa-
ton. With this statement Acting As
sistant Surgeon G. NJ. Cobers OF the
United States Public Health and Hos
pital Marine service introduces a re-
port. made public today. containing In
teresting details OF the anti-plaguc
work. This war on rats Is mostly In
the nature of a prophylactic measure
against infection
Thirty laborers are employed con-
stantly as rat catchers. There are in
constant use about 5000 traps OF the
cage and snap varieties. During May
1851 rats were trapped. In this time
the bait used was s21 pounds of ba-
con, 1O4 pounds OF cheese and $40 leaves
of bread.
Bread was the best bait in cage
traps; a record is kept OF the location;
record is kept OF each rat that is
trapped. Destruction Of rats by poi
soned bread distributed on boards
placed in the sewers was an effective
method.
City inspectors acting under the
