CONDITION OF THE MARKETS Wheat Again Opens Weak and Advances Beyond Tuesday's Closing;. Corn Starts with a Decline, but Ends the Day with & et Advance Oats Follow the Same Course Hoc ProdncU Lower. MONEY, STOCKS AND BONDS. "Wall Street Dull and the Market Almost Entirely Featureless., NEW YORK. Jan. 21. Money on call was easy, ranging from 2 to 3 per cent., the Jast loan being made at 2, closing offered at 2 per cent. Prime mercantile paper V28 per cent. Sterling exchange quiet and steady at $4.&P4for sixty -day bills, and 4.87 for demand. The total sales of stocks to-day were 115,623 shares, including the following: Atchison, 15.6C0; Louisville & 'Nashville, 3,125; Northern Pacific. 4,057; Northern Pacific preferred, 5.0TX); Richmond fc Weet Point. 3,7t; St. Paul, 4.412; Union Pacific. The stock market to-day was agnin yery dull, the business of the day being the smallest for a lull day for many weeks, while the fluctuations were strictly in harmony with the trading, and again there is nota single change of note from last night's ligures. The specnlative spirit, for the time being, seems entirely dead, bat money is extremely easy and the banks have) accumulated a surplus which would insure ease for months to come and with such an amount of money lying idle there is likely to be a renewal of the speculation before the April settlements come along.. London came lower this morning, and in the absence of any demand from domestic ttourcs. although .London was not a seller here, tbo traders, who now control tho making of quotations, opened the market otl from n to per cent, with considerable pressure npon a few leading stocks in the early dealings. There was' a dearth of ottering, however, a the prices , established and there was an effort to get back the stocks put out which had the e fleet of stitlening up the temper of the market immediately, and except in a few stocks the early losses were regained. The industrials were the most prominent features and Chicago Gas. for a time, displayed some strength, risii.g 78 per cent., the nioving force being the reorganization and compromise witn the city. This failed to furnish vim to the stock after 12 - o'clock, however, and all the improvraent wad lost, witn something- in. addition, the stock becoming quite weak iu the last hour. Lead waalso sold down late in the day. New England was, if anything, the strongest in the railroad list, while considerable pressure upon Atchison forced it off a fraction. One of the features of the day was the offering down of fc?an Fr.ineisco iirnt preferred to 59 bid. It later sold at 01 against 70 last week, but a later eale was made at 023, The rest of the list waa very dull and featureless throughout, and the market at tho close was steady for the general list, while displaying some weakness among the leaders. Kuilroad bonds to-day were rather more active, but the business of the day amount" ed to only $1,1GO,000. which was divided among a large number of issues. There was also more strength displayed than in shares, aud while the important changes are few in number, they are generally in tLe direction of higher prices. Government bonds were dull and steady. State bonds were dull aud lirm.

Grain Markets Open Weak, bat Stiffen Up Hog Products Lower. CHICAGO. Jan. 21. When trading started this morning there were sellers at SULjo for May wheat, which was the condition of the market at the close of yesterday's session. There were no buyers, however, at over 9450, and soon thero were sellers, but no buyers. at that. This weakness of feeling was oi short duration. There was a good deal of confident buying at from 04Uo to tH'c, aud before long an advance to 947c took place. The foregoing changes were followed by a decline to Olc, an advance to (4 34c. another set-back to 9440, and a bulge which bad reached 95j by 12 o'clock. The cablo advices indicated a hardening tendency at 'Liverpool, and considerable firmness in the French country markets: The extreme cold weather recently prevailing in England bad given place to a higher range of temperature as indicated by the weather being described as cold and wet. The previous cold, dry weather had been very favorable for the marketing of native wheat by the English farmers, and the weather conditions now advised will have an opposite effect; freer purchases of foreign sorts are therefore to be expected. The frost damage to the French crop was repeated in some cable dispatches and denied in others, hnt the prevailing opinion was that serious damage has resulted. Attention has not yet been forcibly drawn to a similar state of affairs which the Kussian correspondents of English houses have been advising for a mouth back as prevailing in south liussia. The 'bears" brought forward a story to the effect that elevator men in the Northwest were holding back the grain in country elevators in order to make an artificial scarcity. Tbo first advance was on BradMreet's report that tho visible supply had decreased 1,7V.).(00 bu during tho week. A private telegram was received from San Francisco, saying that only four and onehalf inches of rain had fallen in the wheat district of California, against an average of fourteen inches. Subsequently wheat sagged to too. bnt strengthened on rePorts of considerable export business. The feature of the day in corn was the taking ot protita by 'short." The range in May was 51"8c to 52c at the opening to M34C, and then up to 52 J4. May oats opened at 45Lc. The price advanced to 457.c, declined to ljc. reacted to 4(c, and cloned Lj above yesterday, at 40?bo bid. There-was fair trading. The first estimate on the day's receipts of fag as reported from the yards, was 42,000 head, with prices 10 to 15c lotr. This waa enough to give the provision market a weak start at a decline from the previous day's closing price. The early weakness was added to later when the day's receipts of hogi were reported at 50,000. Armour and other packers were sellers. The close showed declines of 15olu pork, .02c&.G5c in lard and .OTLjc in Tibs. Theleadiug futures ranged as follows; Oj?nlngllighttt Clotting WheatJan .. May Jul j Corn-Jan ...

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 21. In most de partments trade was a little dull to-day, which was attributed to the weather largely, it being rather mild for mid-winter. The dry-goods and boot and shoe men feel the dullness more than other departments. In prices there were no important fluctua tious. Some changes in the dry-goods market will be noticed, more in the way of an adjustment. Bleached cotton goods aro very firm in tone; in fact, nearly all cotton goods have become firmer, and with the improved wool market woolen goods are strong in tone. Tho produce men report

trade limited bv the goods that they can get hold of on commission or purchase. The demand for apples and potatoes is in excess of the supply. Eggs are firm at the advance , to 20 cents, and shippers report receipts very light. Poultry, especially turkeys, in good demand at, the higher prices. In all lines of goods there seems to be an upward tendency. Staple groceries are moving fairly well, and sugars show an unexpected strength. The hide market is active and prices are firm. GRAIN. The local market was in better tone today. No. S red wheat advanced to 9520, aud even better prices would be paid were the offerings liberal. Corn and oats both rule firm and steady.

The sooner the ground can be plowed in the spring the better, especially on heavy soils. During the warm days that sometimes occur in the winter plowing may be done, provided the ground is not too wet for work. It will not interfere with later plowing, for the later, plowing will only serve to reduce the soil to a liner condition. No doubt an objection may be urged against plowing at a time when the ground may be wet, but the frost will pulverize the lumps and make the soil mellow. To plow early, leave the ground in the rough, and cross-plow later, then harrow down tine for the crop, will be of great advantage to the crop, allowing more plant food, lessening the damage from drought and warming the soil, as well as preventing the baking of the top soil to a certain extent When the manure is not decomposed in the heap it must decompose iu the soil before the plants can utilize it as food, and the sooner the manure is spread the better it will be for the crop. As it is difficult to spread manure on plowed ground, owing to the labor of hauling over the rough, soft ground, the method practiced by those who plow twice is to spread the manure on the unplowed ground, plow it under, and leave the ground in the rough (not harrowing), and when tho ground is cross-plowed later on the manure is more intimately mixed with the soil. The early plowing also destroys cutworms and grubs, and allows the frost to go down deeper into the ground. It may be mentioned that the frost will pulverize the soil much better than can be done by any mechanical process, and it will save labor if allowed to work on tho clods and lumps, which are reduced by the expansion and contraction of cold aud heat. To plow twice instead of once appears laborious, but it is not economical to withhold any labor or other expense that will result in a gain later on. If better results can be derived from tho manure, and the ground can be worked more easily in the summer by reason of the excellent condition of the toil (due to the careful early preparation) the labor of the summer season will be lessened, the only increase of labor being in harvesting the larger crop, to which no fartuer will have any objection. Guinea fowls will go into a house to roost if they have been accustomed to it, though they like to choose-a place for themselves, and have a decided liking for trees. It is necessary to keep them in pairs, as they are monogamous. They nearly always steal their nests. They are not remarkably belligerent, but it is not advisable to conline them with other fowls. Pheasants will displace turkeys next. The Chinese pheasants introduced into Oregon some years ago have thriven apace and are now estimated at a million. The beautiful birds are spreading over a wide extent of country.
