At New York, yesterday, mohey on call was easy at 1 per cent. Prime mercantile paper, S'n'-c. Sterling exchange was dull, with actual business in bankers bills at $ 1.87 for demand and at HSt'j 1.83 for sixty-day bills; posted nites, Jl.SCyi.SS; commercial bills, $4.S3-VI.S1. Silver certificates. d;jCC!;c. The total sales of stock were 133,000 e-hares. The share sitt-culation 011 the Stock Exchange wa3 slajrnant during the greater part of the day. the dealings bclnjr In the hands at the board traders, who are not Inclined to operate very heavily on. either tide cf the market at this Juncture. Commission houses report an absolute dearth of orders, and the London houses added very little lot transactions. Fortunately for stability of values, there Is quite a large short interest In the market, which is more disposed to cover than to extend its lines, and consequently the pressure to sell is not heavy. Were it not for the Industrials the dealings would hava been very Email Indeed. Sugar was most active, selling up Irs per cent, in the earlier dealings cn buying fur a ihxjI, which, later in the day, retired aa purchaser?, whereupon the price ragged off l'i, leaving a gain of Distilling made tux advance or per cent, on the uay, bein below the highest point touched. The buying in it was on orders from Washington arid the West Rubber, on purchases of "0 shares, rose Z per cent. Cordage, on sales of 2,Z( shares, declined l'i. General Klectrfc was in good demand. luring the morr.liig, on a rercrt that the company had obtained some additional valuable iatent rights, it rose 1U rer cent., reacting in the general depression at the close. it. Paul was second on the list of transactions, but lluctuated within 1 per cent.. advancing at the opening and declining 1 ier cent, in the trading later, closing at the lowest point. The question of the next dividend is being again discussed, the Hurlington dividend being also considered in douht. A lioston dispatch to a New York tinancial agency asserted that the directors of the last-named company would meet in Koston next vik and declare the usual dividend of Pi. Burlington lost on the day. Western Union was well held until after delivery hour, when a drive was made on the stock, based on a report that the statement of the company for the quarter en.IJng .March 31 will show a material decrease in earnings. An early advance of 3 had been made, from which a drop of 28 was made, with only a recovery of 1$ at the close. The general market was fairly firm throughout the morning and during the first part of the afternoon, but during the last three-quarters of an hour was quite heavy and closed weak. The principal declines of the day not already mentioned are Iouisville & New Albany preferred, l7; .Louisville, Ft. Louis & Texas, lv. I,ake Shore, 1U; Pittsburg. C, C. & St. L. preferred, 18, and Susquehanna & Western. 1 per cent. A strong tone characterized the dealings In the bond market until late in the day, when a reaction took place, but in the final stage the market became firm again. Government bonds were steady and State bonds dull. The following table, prepared by James K. Bern. Itoom 16, Board of Trade, shows tha range of quotations: Open- High- Low- ClosName. Ing. est. est.

Silver took another drtu to-day. the jrie of bar silver n-arh-lng the lowest point known here in many yeain. The market Is Hat and the price 1j quoted at 21 15-101 jer ounce. The fall of silver rupeo paper and Indian exchange monopolizes attention In tinancial

circles here. The India Council sold to-day eight lakhs of rupees in telegraphic transfers at 11 1-32 pence. This Indicates that the council will allot practically at any rate the market tenders. There Is an utterly despondent feeling In the silver market, but It Is not thought that the India mints will reopen. NEW YORK, Feb. 7.-Bar silver was quoted at 64ic per ounce to-day. LOCAL GRAIN AND PIIODUCC A Rainy Dny ClioeUert Trade, Fluctuation In Vnlne Helng Few. Trade on the wholesale streets was a littie ofT yesterday. Mall orders were light ar.d the morning trains brought in few buyers. Dry-goods merchants are beginning to come in and select spring andi summer g.Xfds, but they watch not to get large b5ils, being disposed to wait a little and see how business is a little later. Said one: "There is but little danger of any advance on any line of dry goods within the next thirty or sixty days, so nothing Is lost In delaying purchases." Grocers are having a good trade. Canned goods and dried fruits are moving better. California prunes now have the ewing, there being no Turkish prunes on the market The high price cf apples Is proving a good thing in increasing the demand for California dried fruits, which, fortunately, this year are better than usual. Provisions are moving quite freely. On Commission row some improvement In business Is reported, but prices on, most articles are weak. The poultry and egg market Is not in as strong a position as a week ago. , , . It was a quiet day in the local grain markft, with attendance on 'Change small and bidding lacking snap.

Spraying orchards to protect the foliage and fruit from the attack of insects and fungi may now be considered as one of the regular duties conneeted with the growing of apples. Those who have had experience In this direction are practically unanimous In saying that not only does it pay to spray apple orchards, but it generally pays well. Doubts as to the advisability of making npidioationa to orchards are rapidly disappearing, and now r.r'se the questions, what to apply and how and when to make the applications. Spraying Is hard work, unless the pump Is- "run by horse power, and this can be used with profit only by owners of exceptionally large orchards. The vast majority of apple-growers are necessarily forced to use hand pumps. The pump should be powerful. It requires double th? amount of liquid with a small pump than Is necessary when one of ample size is used. In general, a pump used for orchard work should have a cylinder at least two and one-half inches In diameter, the stroke being from four to five inches in length. The handle should be long, as greater power can then be obtained. Working part3 which are exposed to the action of the materials applied should be of brass, or else brass lined, for Iron soon corrodes. The air chamber should be rather small, especially if the pressure of the liquid can be utilized in keeping the nozzle free from obstruction. In such cases, the one who pumps should be able to Increase the pressure of the liquid in the nozsle by one or two quick strokes of the handle. A large air chamber defeats this.

i Free Selling at Chicago Yesterday

Sent May to 62 l-8c. Receipts Have Been Heavj? and Indications Point to a Good Crop Provisions Higher. CHICAGO, Feb. 7. The wheat market continued Its downward course to-day and landed May He lower at the close, with a new low-price record. Free selling, large receipts, weak cables and mild weather were responsible for the decline. May corn closed unchanged after an early break and a new low-price record. May oat3 closed ";c higher and provisions slightly higher all around. Wheat started weak, with May c lower, at 62ysc Cables were lower, Liverpool being quoted depressed and Hd lower. Northwestern receipts were again heavy, Minneapolis and Duluth having 313 cars, compared with 207 on the corresponding day last year. Primary market receipts cf wheat to-day were 417,000 bushels, against 237.000 bushels last week and 353,000 bushels on the same day le-st year. Primary market receipts of wheat for the first three days of this week were 516,000 bushels over the three same days last week. The weather was mild and there were no indications of weather to Injure the crop. Under the depressing conditions prices declined, with slight fluctuations, until May touched 621;c, a new low-price record. The selling became free and general, being led by Lamson, Schwartz-Dupee, Geddes-Klrkwood, Ramsey-Chandler and Pope-Lewis. Bangs was a very largo seller, presumably for Seaverns, and Seaverns nimselt" sold, as iild Armour & Co. Eastern wheat and wheat which had been held for a long time for country speculators came out very freely. Bradstreet's decrease in the visible supply and the more liberal export clearances had little effect in sustaining prices, and May closed but He above the bottom figures of the day. May opened at 628c, advanced He lost c and reacted c, to close at 62V4C in corn still lower prices were recorded, the low marks on May being 36-4c, and July 7r;ic Opening trades were at Vc lower, ana on continued liquidations of long com the price was forced down another ViC one line estimated at 300,000 bu coming on the market on this break. There Was also free selling by several of the larger receiving and elevator interests, and tnls also helloed depress values. The decline was followed by Improved demand, ami this caused values to react ?s&Hc, when the price held steady for a time, again sagged back a fraction, and closed with no change. The action of the wheat market and the liberal receipts were the principal factors in creating the weakness which prevailed early In the day. and cables were weak and unfavorable to holders. There wa.s only a moderate trade in oats, and, considering the weakness in wheat and corn, prices held remarkably steady. Selling by longs was surprisingly light, and tnis, combined with the late rally in corn, was the chief cause of the rally of from the bottom figures. The available supply decreased 2i'J,0 bu. which also elded In firming up the market, and May closed He from the top figures of the day. Provisions were somewhat nervous and Irregular early, opening higher and advancing on a few shorts covering, and then losing the advance on the brealc in wheat, and recovering on a little buying on outside account. A moderate break followed on increased scattering offerings, no one in particular selling. The- volume of trading was moderate. A firmer feeling prevailed on a little support to the market later, presumably by the packers and snorts, a good advance from the inside xriees being scored. The final figures were at the outside for the day for Jard and nearly so for pork andi ribs. Compared with last nlsrht May pork i .13c higher, May lard .02ViiC higher and May ribs .10c higher.

Quotation at St. I.oul, Philadelphia. Baltimore nnd Other Points. MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 7. Receipts of wheat to-day were 241 cars; shipments 77 cars. The demand was rot very brisk for any style of wheat, and prices declined EsC from the closing Tuesday. Business continues to be mainly in May, with some turning over to July. In th? cash wheat mirket trade was slow and prices were weaker. No. 1 hard brought less premium over No. 1 Northern than previously. The latter sold fairly well at 3?-';G0c, closing rt Zc. Wheat that came in over the Milwaukee and Great Nortnern roads brought about a eiuarter of a cent a bushel more than that over other roads, mainly due to elevator and switching causes. The premium for No. 1 Northern over May ranged from to -c. Closing prices: February. SSc; May, 59',c; Julv.

A 3Ian Who I'ujm for u Seat in a Car 3Int Have It. New York Tribune. "Let the company thank God and take courage," are the words used by a Mississippi Judge of the Supreme Court of that State in affirming a Judgment against the L, N. O. & T. Railroad Company in favor of a passenger for whom the conductor failed to provide a seat. The case was decided a short time ago. and the facts, as well as the judge's decision, make It picturesque. In fact. It has peculiar Interest for everybody who travels, ami If the Northern courts would adopt ihe same view?, they might greatly Increase their popularity and the respect of the community generally. A man named Patterson bought a ticket at Vlcksburg, Miss., and board ea a train eui the railroad mentioned. The train consisted of three coaches a smoker, a coach for the colored passengers and one coach for first-class white passengers. Mr. Patterson went Into the first-class coach, but found the seats all occupied, and the conductor told him he could r.ct get a m-;u 111 that car. Some of the passengers were asleep, and occupied two seats each, and some of the seats were filled with baggage, but none of the seats were vacant, The passenger Insisted that the conductor should get a seat for him, but he refusal to do so, and told Patterson to get a seat In the next coach. Patterson followed the conductor's suggestion, and took a seat In the next coach, which was the one reserved for colored passengers. A few minuter later the conductor ordered him out of that car. because It was the coach set apart for the exclusive use ot colored passengers. Patterson then went to the smokln car, but he found it Impossible to remain their long, becau.nj the smoke nauseated him. Once more he went to the conductor and insisted that a seat be found for him by the conductor in the first-class coach, threatening to sue the com:ny if the sat was not provided. The conductor replied that he cculd get no seat in the first-class coach, nnd he could F'ae and be blanked. Patterson s:ied the company and pecured a Judgment for $73. Th? tvmpany carried the case to the Supreme Court of the State, where the Judgment was affirmed, with the following picturesque opinion: "The appellee paid for a seat In a firstciass coach, and was entitled, as a matter of rl2ht. to have the servants of the railway ccmrany who were in charge of th? train furnish him with such rat, ' unless a sudden influx of passeners rendered this Impracticable. It Is perfectly cler from fill thD evidence In this case that the conductor In charge of the train count and should have made provision for seating the arpcllce. It Is equally certain that a projer application of the . appellee? to that effect provoked not only a, refusal from the conductor, but subjected the audacious passenger to an explosion of profnn? and on-te-rrptuous wrath from that official. That a Jury awarded the trivial sum complained jef ti. proof positive that no undue prejudice existed agiinst the corporation. Iet th3 company thank God and tako courage. Affirmed." How to Take Cure of the Teeth. One of the most skillful dentists in New York gives these rules for the care of the teeth: "Use a soft brush and water the temperature of the mouth. Brush the teeth up and down In the morning, before going to bed and after eating whether it Is three or six times a day. Use a good tooth powder twice a week, not oftener. except in case of sickness, when the acids from a disordered stomach are apt to have an unwholesome eftVct upon the dent.ne. Avoid all tooth pastes and dentifrices that foam In the mouth; the lather Is a sure sign cf soap, and soap Injures the gums, without In any way cleansing the teeth. "The very best powder Is of precipitated chalk; It is absolutely harmless and will clean the enamel without effecting the fc-ums. Orris root or a little winter green added gives a pleasant flavor, but in no way improves the chalk. At lnst a qur.rt of tepid water should be u.-'el In rinsing the mouth. A tcaspoonful of Li.terlne In half a gliss of water, used as a wash and garble after meals. Is excellent; It 13 goud for Kore or loose gurrs: it sweetens the mouth, and is a valuable antiseptic, destroying promptly all odors emanating from diseased jrums and teeth. Coarse, hard brushes and soapy dentifrices cause the gums to recede, leaving the dentine expose!. Use a quill pick if necessary after eating, but a piece of waxed floss Is better. These rule3 are worth heeling." Two Plinn in View. Cleveland Plain Denier. Solicitor Professor, I hear you are going to e!o some heavy advertising In the near future. Professor Yes. sir. I am thinking of it. "How will you place itr 'Tin not decided whether to go to Chicago and apply for a divorce or jro to New York and poison my wife."
