JtiJ.30t) The banks now hold $43,&0,439 In excess Of the requirements of the 3 per cent. rule. Total Bales of stocks were 62,102 shares. Including: American Sugar, 6,300; Burlington, 2.190; Chicago Gas, 7,700; Distilling, 1,300; General Electric, 2.5O0; Louisville & 'Nashville, 1,900; National Lead, 10,651; National Lead preferred, 1,990; Northwestern, 2.CO0; Heading, 1.600; St. Paul, 4,000. The leading feature of Saturday's speculation on the Stock, Exchange was the renewal of the liquidations in Lead com.mon. These chares were heavily pressed lor sale, it is believed by insiders, who are In a position to know the company's affairs. The character pf the selling, therefore, caused more credence to be given to the rumor that the common stock was to . be taken off the list of dividend-payers. At the opening the shares were per cent, lower and a rurther sharp decline of 44 per cent, took place. In the later dealings . recovery of 4 per cent, was recorded, of which 4 per cent, had been lost at the close, making the decline i per cent.; Lead preferred declined steadily throughout tho day in sympathy with the common and Is down 2 per cent, from tho final , Hales of Friday. So far as is known there t is nothing in the condition of the company to account for this depression in the value ,,. e Ehare!. but the street accepted the celling as indicative of the views of those acquainted with the true situation. Chicago uveueu -,d lower, ana then advanced .. vuvciuig vi iate contracts, a report teing current that a settlement between l," imprests in tne company nad been Hffprttti-?

Most of the other industrials are uown on the day's transactions. London was a email seller of St. Paul at the opening, but without depressing the stock, . which .was held firmly on the reported Increase of $11,808 in the December net earning. The other grangers were strong, in sympathy. Most of the railway stocks traded Jn show declines at the end of the lay. Speculation was generally heavy in tone except within the last half hour, when a covering movement set in. which was ,lUftt belIef that immediate action would be taken by President , Cleveland with a view to restore confidence in the financial situation, which had about reached a point when such a step Is regarded as absolutely necessary. , And on this point of view the market closed firm. -The week has been disastrous to the value of railway and industrial shares, and the low point of the month was reached in sixtyu of "II "tocks traded in, while some shares sold below the bottom figure of last year. The continued heavy shipments of gold was one of the most depressing influences of the market involving as it did a serious decrease in the treasury gold reserve ZH$ut awy ?raw on tho K,d cl1 in the vaults of the treasury available for the reUe.nptton. of gold certificates. Liquidation was plainly dlscernable in the shares of the receivership roads and in several of the low priced stocks. Heavy blocks of I.-ad common were thrown on the market, leading It to a belief in current rumors that the payment of dividends on the stock would be discont nueel and talk that the forthcoming annual statement would be unfavorable. 1 he net loss on the week is 8 per cent, which is within U per cent, of the lowest! ,Lead preferred also shared in the weakness and made a decline of 5 per cent. Heading was subjected to a considerable liquidation owing : to the threatened foreclosure proceedings, and gave way 4 to 8Vi. the last salo being above the lowest. Reports that the stock would be heavily assessed were S-' ain.d..the Ja-twth,liJ a Prominent insider was Jetting his holdings go was another factor of weakness. The onds also suffered severely. Northern Pacific preferred on a reiteration of the statement that an asBold down 2T4 will a final rally s 97 or.th?rn, Pacific common touched 2. the ' lowest price ever registered. The Cordage shares; while less unimated. continued on their downward career, and sales were made of the common at 4: Cordage preferred at ?W aniJ Cordage -guaranteed at 17, the prices of the two first named being the lowest yet recorded. On the week these stocks are off l, m and 1 respectively. Union Pacific attained an advance of U per cent.-in the early part of the week, but towards the close llquldaii?n.,i,.ont &cc,vU,nts caused a declina of J.0,8! Ihe c'os,nff Price being V4 below last Saturday. Missouri Pacific was subjected to a drive which carried the shares uown from 23 to 21. the last price being wade at 217. The Southern railway seeulties were hammered down on a report that the company employes were preparing to strike, which was officially denied The common fell off 1H to 9'. and the preferred to o24. wh ch are the lowest figures made since the stocks were listed The rpective losses on the week are lkz ner cent. Illinois Central broke 2 to 874? mainly on Pales for the foreign account hugar was marked up lj to 90', on Monday on the announcement of the decision in favor of the trust 'by the Supreme Court, but . reacted to 89ft. recovering in the final dealings. and closed unchanged on the week. The grangers T ejr, ? week, but when the feenate reported the pooling bill without amendment there was a sharp rallv. A sub?!qu?n announcement to the effect that the bill would be subjected to a vigorous attack by those Senators des'rlng anvn.lrient to it. brought about a reaction which was partly recovered in the final trailing on buying induced by St. Paul's f.ivoia- , Me December statement. The losses on the week are igi?, the latter in Ro?k Ifland. The coal shares made material recessions, extending to 4V in. New Jersey Central un1 3'i In Delaware & Hudson, with a recovery of 1-irt New Jersey Central, the others closing at the lowest.

The bond market was quiet and generally heavy during the two hours of Saturday. The aggregvte pales were $451,500. The speculation in the bond market for the week has been heavy and the general bond trend of prices downward. The aggregate sales were $6,123.U0O. The main feature of the trading was tho Heading Issues, nome sales of which were registered at the lowest, ever made.

WEEKLY REVIEW. 113 Henry Clews, of New York, in hH review of business in Wall street last week says: "Business in Wall street remains dull. In the investment department, the transactionsfall considerably below what is uual at this season, though prices for nrsc-ciass mortgages, yield.ng about 4 per cent., are quite steady. Speculative transactions are almost entirely confined to room operators, and all efforts to stimulate buying are spasmodic and fall flat. At the moment, the bears seem to have the upper hand, perhaps mainly because holders cnoose to give them rope in order to entangle them in a squeeze. The strong feature in the market lies in the fact that there are so few weak holders, and that the owners of stock regard securities as intrinsically t-heap at current quotations and theretore will not sell except at an advance upon present prices. "The market is in a mood to seek an occasion for postponement of operations; and it finds one ready to hand in the treasury situation, the currency question, and the tardiness of Congress in doing something towards settling tnese issues. It is generally conceded that in the way of legislation on the currency question, nothing is likely to be done at present, nor indeed can be properly done within the brief time remaining for the present Congress. The feeling in favor of the appointment of a national commission on the question is quite general, and the recommendation to that ertect by the Chamber of Commerce is likely to strengthen that sentiment. With respect to providing authority for borrowing to strengthen the treasury, the feeling is one of growing Impatience, expressed in strong denunciation of the negiect of Congress. This postponement Is more inexcusable because the inevitable necessity for the thing being done leaves so little room for de.ay arising from differences of opinion. The uneasiness on this account is increased by the suspicion that the inaction of Congress Is due to fears that action in thi3 matter may bring up again the eternal silver question, with all its disturbing influences. The question of the kind of money in which the treasury bonds shall be made payable applies the match to a great deal of explosive congressional material, and the Washington leaders hesitate as to what is the best way of getting around the difficulty, the more so as the silverites are evidently awaiting the occasion for wresting from the sound money men some sort of concession to silver. As usual, Senator Sherman steps to the front as a ready compromiser, and, instead of strengthening public confidence by proposing that the bonds shall be payable in gold, introduces a bill providing for an issue of 3 per cents, payable In coin, which means silver as well as gold. The Senator insists that as the word coin has always been used in government bonds, it should continnue to be. In taking this stand, he seems to lose sight of the fact that when that word was originally inserted In the bond,silver (which is as much coin as gold) was at a premium over gold, and when the present bond act was passed which Is now the only authority for the issue of bonds silver money was not in circulation in this country.. Senator Sherman must know that since that time, silver has depreciated from a premium over gold to less than 60c on the dollar, hence the word coin has not now the ring that it once had. Senator Sherman would make a good heathen Chinese if in China, because in that country they still continue to use the old-fashioned war weapons which they commenced with, and do not even now deem it necessary to change them to meet the conditions called for by modern warfare. It is for that reason the little Japs have driven them to the wall. The United States Treasury, I fear, will be equally as badly crippled as the Chinese are at the present time, if Senator Sherman and Congress do not infuse the word gold into our bonds, which modernized conditions call for with firstclassi nations. The. nation that keeps abreast of the times, whether in its money or its weapons, will conquer in the end. Feudalism has passed forever. The enlightenment of this generation is not likely to give way to another dark age. If Senator Sherman will allow his mind to wander back over the past forty years, he will realize that the progress in everything connected with the human race has been greater that for all previous time, which calls for revolutionary changes in methods. This country, therefore, must recognize gold as does England, France, Germany, Austria and Russia, as the money standard, and should put the word gold in future bond contracts by legislative enactment. This country will then be on a secure basis for the people of all other nations to deal with us. , There Is very clear evidence of progress In public comprehension of the nature of our financial difficulties. It is seen that the bank currency question is only indirectly connected with the treasury question; and that the treasury question has two distinct branches, one relating to deficiencies of revenue, and the other to the retention of gold .in the treasury, each of which requires distinct methods of adjustment. The gold reserve is the most acute disease and will, perhaps, prove the latent to yield to treatment. It cannot be finally remedied until the banks feel at liberty to resume their former methods of paying out gold, and there are reasons to hope that some means may be ultimately devised by which the obstacles at this point can be overcome. Eight to dawning; and the way out of our embarrassments is becoming daily more visible." . Sntunluy's Dank Clearing. At Ch'.cago Clearings, $10,905,000; for the week. $81,222,000.

Steady Prices Continue, with Only a Fair Volume of Hus!neim. In all departments prices in the week ending Jan. 26 ruled unusually steady, and in most lines very Arm. Dry good.-", which had been weak in tone, became steadier, and a fair volume of trade In that line was experienced. The grocers had a good week. Sugars and coffees both had an upward tendency but neither last week advanced as had been looked for. Provisions are moving well; prices steadier than at any time in months. The week closed with poultry and eggs easy at quotations. The cold weather, it Is thought, may lead to an advance In eggs, but poultry is In large supply, and present prices are likely to cover that market for some days at least. Choice fruits and vegetables are In good request at the range of prices quoted. Good oranges ate very scarce. It is expected that California fruit will be In this market within ten days, but It is very difficult to find a Florida orange which has not been chilled. The local grain market ruled dull all week.- corn. In fact, being the onlv cereal which was in good request, but it will be noticed that corn Is lc lower than on Monday for most grades. Little is said about wheat. The week closed with track b;ds rul'ng as follows: Wheat No. 3 reJ. 52c; No. 3 red. 50c; wagon wheat D2c.; Corn-No. I wuHOt Wjfii No, 2 white, 40;

CHICAGO WHEAT CO.VTIM.ES O.V ITS RECORD-DREAKIXG DECXIXE. Loss of S-8e on the Day for the Lead Jng; Cereal, wIlU Corn , LSc OB nnd Provisions Tending: Higher. CHICAGO, Jan. 26. Wheat continued its record-breaking slide for . oblivion to-day, touching 52Tc for May and closing c lower than yesterday. Better cables caused an early advance, but free selling wiped it out. May corn closed 4c lower, May oats unchanged and provisions slightly higher. The wheat market opened in a manner to encourage the hope that liquidation had run its course. May, which closed yesterday at 53, opened at 53c bid with sales at 54!4c at the same time. After hanging around 4c for a whiie it gradually weakened and about 11 o'clock it was down to 53c, 'wbich was its previous lowest point. The cause of the recovery at the opening was an unexpected gain of 'd in the price of futures of American red winter wheat at Liverpool. That started w)me local buying, but as soon as that ceased the dark view of the future again predominated and the decline reported was the result. Chicago receipts for the day were forty-eight cars, against fifty-five a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth received together 220 cars, against 196 last Saturday and 149 a year ago. Bradstreet made the week's exports of wheat and flour from both coasts 2,840,000 bu, compared with 3,564, COO bu on the week before and 2,917,000 bu a year ago. Primary market receipts all told amounted to 212,000 , bu, against 224,000 bu the previous Saturday ana 196,000 bu on the corresponding day the year before. Guesses of the visible supply for Monday range from 500,000 bu to o0,000 bu decrease. St. Louis shipments of wheat this week amount to 518,000 bu. Selling became liberal as the session advanced, May closing at 53c, having made a new low price record at 52c. The corn market, compared with wheat, was firm on fair buying although in the end ower than yesterday's close. May started strong at 45c, or c improvement over last night. Owing to the heaviness of wheat and some slacking up in the demand for shipment the opening advance could not be maintained. The close for May was 45c against 4514c yesterday. Fair business was transacted in oats. Values at the start were somewhat firmer and gradually eased off, closing a shade lower, but within a very small fraction of yesterday's last prices. The steadiness of the cash market and some demand from the stock were reported as the causes of the early firmness and sympathy with, wheat influenced the decline. May sold from 29c, the opening price, to 29V2C, and closed at 2929c Tne provision market was steadied by the small receipts of hogs. Shorts were the buyers. The range for May pork was from $1).80 at the opening to $10.60 and back to $10.65 at the close. May lard opening at $6.73, sold down to $3.70 and closed at $6.724 as against $6.672 yesterday. Ribs for May etarted at $5.60 and left off at $5.55, which was also the closing price on the day before. Estimated cars for Monday Wheat, 27 cars; corn, 133 cars; oats, 60 cars; hogs, 30,000 head.
