The New York stock market yesterday was dull and Irregular, with a lower tendency. The forenoon trading was narrow, although the grangers were a trifle less sluggish than the general list. Lower Iondon prices and foreign sales stimulated bear aggression, but the market received effective support at intervals and covering was quite apparent in some of the specialties. Around 1 o'clock the market sold off tdnrply on the announcement of the St. Paul bank failures. Although the news of the suspension was attended by statements of belief that the troubles were merely local, the effect was to unsettle the coniidence of conservative interests. The bears were also helped by the prevailing uneasiness regarding possible congressional action on tome important financial measures. Heading was conspicuous In the reactionary movement despite the decision of the attorney general of Pennsylvania affirming the validity of the company's charter. General Electric was Influenced by profit taking and declined l1?. Manhattan rose a blight fraction on the denial of the application to have the attorney general begin suit against l ho company to restrain the dividend and remove certain officers and directors. The large security holders in the leading shares continue to augur hopefully of thv.- Immediate future of the market owing io the high price of and sharp forelgw demand for wneat, the exceptionally large accumulations of funds, expectations of reviving general business and the easier tendency of money abroad. The boars lay stress on the absence of outside Interest, the bank failures and dullness of general trade. The closing was dull and weak at Important fractional net losses in many shares. The railway and miscellaneous bond market showed a decided tendency towards a higher level on Investment purchases.

One of These Ofllclul Replten to CritielMiiin by Other Writer. To the Editor of the Indianaindis Journal: If ono from another State were to read the Journal for the last month he would think that Indiana had the worst set of robber officers ever known in the persons of township trustees, rivaling the famous Tweed ring of New York. It seems there is nothing too bad for them to do. I often wonder how many of these prolific writers know the difference and how applied and how. obtained between township and tuition tax or any other of the various township funds. was discussing with a man the much-talked-about graded school In recent numbers of the Journal, and asked him if he knew the difference as to the different funds. He admitted that he did not, and he was a good strong average man in general Intelligence. 1 would like to ask some of these prolific writers the same question. There arc plenty of ieople who are good at objecting, but are as barren as a sand hill when it comes to a remedy. There seems to be a widespread belief that when the State Association of Township Trustees meets on the 14th and 15th of this month they are going to hatch up some additional gigantic robbery. I see by a Journal of recent date that some paper of another State has already called the attention of its readers to the doings of the trustees of this State, so you see the efforts of these writers are already calling attention to the trustees of Indiana. There are in this State ovet 1,1'X trustees, and I venture the assertion without fear of successful contradiction that a more conscientious set of officers, considering the number and the responsibility, cannot be found in this nor any other State. The great mass of the trustees of the State realize their power ,and are doing their best to exercise It so as to bring about the greatest good to the greatest number of citizens, and will continue to do their duty, notwithstanding all of these adverse criticisms. So much in defense of the poor trustee. As to publishing these reports, I do not believe the average trustee; has any objection to publishing statements showing what he has done with the township's money, but how to get at the matter was what puzzled us and others. Under Instructions irom the county attorney the trustees of Rush published a short recapitulation of their work for the year. With all of tho fuss by the people about tho extravagance of trustees, not one man in my township said a word to me about it. This shows how much Interest they take in the expenditures of the trustee. The law says that any citizen of the township shall have access to the books at any time, but not one citizen has ever demanded access to my books. If this power is to be taken away from the trustees, who are you going to give it to? lo the Circuit and other courts and County Commissioners says one writer. And who has more power than they, pray tell. I see by the Journal that the commissioners of Marion county gave two lawyers &.000 out of the county funds for legal service, which is more than all the trustees in Rush county get for a year's work, any one of which did vastly more work than did the two lawyers. In fact, it takes a smarter man to be a good township trustee than it does to be a lawyer. As to the poor, I wish there could be some way devisea to take care of them with less expense and with more satisfaction to the taxpayers. As far as the trustees are concerned, the great bulk of the money that is spent by them for the poor is spent by the trustees of the towns and cities. I know this by my own county. The trustee of Rushville township spends more money for the poor than all of the trustees In the county put together. I know this by the report he makes to the County Commissioners and by the quarterly reports. It is not his fault that the expenses are so large; let the law tell him what to do. I do not see how wo are going to help spending large sums on the poor unless we can do away with them, but the poor you have always with you. One thing ought and can be done, and that is let the County Commissioners, wherever they think the trustee's expenditure for the poor is 'too high, cut it down. I see by Saturday's Journal that there was to be an effort made to give the high school another boost; also, a free library In every township In the State; also, the State Board of Agriculture wants the Legislature to appropriate $o.".noo for a free State fair; also, the State University at Bloomington wants $250,000 for a new building, and I do not know how many other demands are in sight. There are the penal, charitable and reformatory institutions of the State and the salaries of our State officers: also. $100,000 to pay the incoming Legislature, besides county and township taxes. Where is all this money to come from with corn at 17 and IS cents ijer bushel and everything else that a farmer has to sell at corresponding low figures? O. W. LOONEY, Jr., Trustee. Rushville, Ind., Jan. 4. The Cost of Publication. To the Editor of the Indianapoli3 Journal: You have given much of your space for the "newspaper side" of publishing trus tees' reports. The trend of your communi cations has been that to be a trustee is to be a rogue. I believe that most of the trustees of the State accepted -the office, not for purposes of stealing, but to pursue their duties In a legitimate way, and as they are selected by their neighbors it Is presumed that their habits and qualifications are better known and more carefully scrutinized by the electors than any other official, as their bailiwick is more compact. But now to the point. The lowest amount paid in this county for printing trustees reports, as construed under the r.ew law. was $12. and I take it that rates for public printing are the same all over the State; bo if It costs but $70 per township, U less than our lowest, it would cost the taxpayers of the State $7o.S40 to print the reports one year, or $2.210 for a trustee's term. Even in the days of Pollardism this is a larger amount than was ever taken from the taxpayers by dishonest trustees. I am not objecting to the guard thrown around trustees to protect taxpayers, but let us have It In a form to accomplish that end In a more economical way. he law now requires trustees to make a reiort to the County Commissioners of receipts and expenditures, with receipts accompanying, where they are scrutinized bv the commissioners and are open to the in spection of the taxpayers. The law also requires trustees to post "outstanding indebtedness" at the door of the office, where every taxpayer may examine it. To summarize: Ix-t the Legislature pass a "penalty act" to the section reouirinr a 11m -f outstanding warrants or indebtedness to be posted at the door, or even publish that portion of the report In the papers. This would give the proper protection and would economize for the taxpayers, in this way, when you select honest trustees the taxpayers are out nothing. TRUSTEE. Crecnsburg, Ind., Jan. 4.

WHEAT TUMBLED AGAIN

Gil RATI It PORTION OP SATtltllAVS ADVAMJE LOST VESTEIU1AV. Foreign ew Wan Iliillinh, lint Financial Trouble In the orthwet Marled a (ienernl Decline. CHICAGO. Jan. 4. Wheat to-day lost nearly lc of the lsc it gained Saturday, chiefly on account of the general taking of profits, which were sufficiently enticing at tho opening advance. The Northwest bank failures were also influential to a degree. Other markets were more or less affected, corn declining about "mc, oats Uc and provisions V-SalZc. Liverpool was a decided factor in wheat at the opening. Opening quotations In that market were all the way from Id to l!d higher. At the same time it was known that the amount of wheat on ocean passage had decreased very heavily, and that the world's shipments to Europe last week were small. Beerbohm's report called the decrease on passage S,41G,0u0 bushels, and the total amount put afloat for the week bushels. With that to start, wheat, which closed Saturday at S4"c, opened with buyers at anywhere from 85c to S-Vc and S,V,4e the most general price. There was an abundance for sale at these prices by people Vhose previous purchases showed a handsome profit, considering the heaviness of the quantities some of them deal in and had on hand, the result being a gradual but almost steady decline, until the price of -Slay was down to 84Uc about 11:30 o'clock. Some of the selling came from outside points, notably St. I-rfuis, and was influenced by signal-service reports of snow in the winter wheat district, allaying greatly the fears of damage to that crop from freezing after the almost unprecedented mild weather that has prevailed. Chicago receipts were sixty-five cars, and r2.0U0 bushels were Inspected out of store. Minneapolis and Duluth got only C01 cars, in comparison with 64$ on the corresponding day of last year. The world's shipments last week, as finally reported, were 5,20,000 bushels, against 3.7S4.U00 bushels the week before and fi.621.0iH) the corresponding week last year. The visible supply showed an Increase of 20S.OOO bushels, instead of a decrease of about that much. Closing cables were very firm from Liverpool, at a total gain of 2d since it closed Thursday last; London tid per quarter higher and Berlin 12 marks higher. The market here, however" was kept down by steady selling out of long wheat, a great deal of which during the last hour was caused by several bank failures in the Northwest. The price of May finally got down to SSc, and closed easy at Corn opened a shade better. In sympathy with the better tone In wheat, but turned weak as the leading cereal declined. Trade was light but little from outside sources. May opened a shad higher, at 25Ti2&c. and declined with several fluctuations to 25c, where it stopped. Liquidation was the order of the dav In oats. Tho market opened steady but weakened later. In sympathy with whert. and on the decline several good-sized lines were disposed of. The visible showed an Increase of 513.000 bushels, which had some effect. May oiened a shade higher, at WThC. sold between 19'ao and KV. closing easy at V.c asked. Provisions were rather tame and appeared to be as much under the Influence of the wheat fluctuations as were the other grain markets. Tho opening In-the products whs at a little advance, because of the disappointment in the number of hogs received. The market lost the firmness as wheat began its decline. Packers were moderate sellers, and some long pork and ribs were likewise said to have corne cn the market in small lots. At the close May pork -vas liVc lower, at $7.S0; May lard lower, at $:j.rt72: May ribs about 5c lower, at $.'5..74. Estimated receipts for to-morrow Wheat, 4S cars; corn, 210 cars; oats, 230 cars.
