IMPORTANT NET GAINS STOCKS MAIXTAIXEI) A FIRM TO.M1 OX SMALL Ut SIX ESS. Con I em Ilrrame the Ffatnre of the 31nrket, and Stiffened I' p Local Business Very Quiet. At New York, yesterday, money on call was easy at 129 2 per cent.; last loan, l";i; closing offered at Wz'nZ per cent. Prime mercantile paper, ZxYn per cent. . Sterling exchange was steady, with actual business In bankers' bills at W.Wtfi 4.aG?i for demand, and JI.SlUiiLi for sixty days; posted rates, ll-Sv-'-l.iVzI commercial bills. Jl.JvJt;. Silver certificates. 6365Uc; bar sliver, C3c. Mexican dollars. MTic At London bar sil ver closed at 23 13-l$d per ounce. Total sales of stocks, S0.217 shares. In eluding the following: American Sugar, 5,700; Burlington, (,500; Chicago Gas, 3.C00; Delaware &. Hudson, 3,200; General Electric, 2.700; Louisville & Nashville, 3, GOO; Reading, 5,900; St. Paul, 8,000; Union Pacific, 3.S0O. Yesterday's movement in stocks was ir regular, but a firm tone rns discernible in spite of a light volume of business. The anthracite coal shares were again the fea tures, but displayed improvement on covering and some purchases for the long account induced by the more seasonable weather. It is believed, however, that a short Interest of fair-sized proportions still exists, based on the long continued unfavorable conditions affecting the industry and anticipation of discouraging annual re ports by the Delaware & Hudson and Lackawanna companies. It has been as sumed that the last mentioned has suffered us heavily as the former in point of loss of earnings, and the probability of a reduc tion of dividends from the present 7 per cent, basis has not been overlooked. The high loaning rates current for the shares has also been regarded as to an extent manipulated to conceal long" selling. On the rally there were realizations at frequent Intervals, but Lackawanna gained ana fair ly well held 1- per cent., Delaware & Ilud son and New Jersey Central 1, and Head lntr. per cent, improvement. In the gen. eral list the grangers and some of the high priced industrials were well supported. Slight reactions occurred in the forenoon on profit taking and the market afterwards became intensely dull. The apathy of the speculation was relieved in the final hour by heavy Washington purchases of stocks said to bo inspired by the more favorable outlook for the International treaty. Lon don houses sold moderate amounts of the low-priced shares, but at the same time bought a considerable aggregate amount of speculative bonds. The high grade invest ment stocks were more conspicuous than for some time past and In many instances scored substantial gains. New ork Cen tral, however, developed decided weakness and sold off 1"h per cent, on dealings of 2.UU0 shares. There was no news on the stock and decline was attributed to llnuiua Hon of speculative holdings. Long Island stock was traded in at 41. Monday's closing price, hut at the close yesterday jumped to 4S bid. GO asked, on the impression that Air. Little's report confirms the figures submitted by President Baldwin to the syndi cate. The market closed strong at im portant fractional net gains generally. The bond market was fairly active, and decidedly strong with a good European in quiry apparent for speculative issues. The pales were Jl.Za3.uW. The? principal advances! were: Louisville & Nashville fives and Union Pacific gold sixes. 1U; Union Pacific Pinking fund eights. 1; Atchison adjustment fours. 1?8, and International & Great Northern seconds, Knoxvllle & Ohio firsts. ' Peoria & Eastern firsts, and St. Paul. I. & M. division firsts. 1 per cent. The Hocking alley issues continued to display weak ness. reflecting the unsatisfactory condition of the bituminlous coal industry, the lives declined 1, and sixes 12 per cent. Government bonds were neglected, but slightly higher all around. The transactions were J2.000. The following table, prepared by L. W.

Mayor Taggart yesterday attached his signature to tho ordinance prohibiting the v;earing of hats in theaters and it will be in effect in about two weeks. This ordinance has stirred up a good deal of opposition among those women who never wear a large headdress to the theater, but do not vant to remove their small bonnets, which are really so insignificant in s'ze as to amount to nothing in the way of obstruction. There are many of this class of people in the city. For a long time it has been the custom among the better class of women here to either remove their hats when they go into a theater or wear a bonnet so small that it did not obstruct the view at all. ENDEAVORERS AND SALOONS. Will File Affidavit The .Mayor and the Complaints. Some young men who belong to the good citizenship committee of the Christian Endeavor Society have started in at the work of punishing the saloon keepers who break the law and incidentally of bringing confusion on the heads of Mayor Taggart and his policemen. For some weeks these young men have been visiting saloons on Sunday anel after closing hours at night, merely to see if they could get in. They experienced no trouble in getting In, they say, and they told Mayor Taggart about It. The story runs that the mayor turned them off with promises to see about It. He failed to see about it, however, and the young men called on him again with a like result. Now they have determined to take a different course. One of them. Charles Xewiin. was averse to saying much about the matter Just at present, and refused to state just what conversation he and the others had had with Mayor Taggart. "Some of us have been engaged in this work in a quiet sort of a way for a number of weeks." he said, "and have accumulated considerable evidence, as any one can do who cares to make the rounds. We have been to Mayor Taggart several times, and have received no satisfaction. He does not even make any promises. Now we shall take a different course. "We shall get our evidence into shape and shall tile affidavits against each of tne offending persons. In this way we hope to put an end to the lawbreaking that is going on. Just when and how we shall do this 1 do not care to say now." A Journal reporter also went to Mayor Taggart with the story, and the following conversation ensued: "What do you know about a complaint made to you about thirteen saloons being open after hours?" "Who made tho complaint?" "Two voung men wtio had visited them. "When did they make it. "I don't know; just a few days ago. "You will have to Kot me Konie more definite information before I can answer you." "Haven't you had such a complaint?-' "I guess you are mistaken. 1 know of no such complaint." Captain Hitter on llie Farce. Captain Hitter had his inning yesterday with the Hoard of Safety. He had not even been notified that the case which he had filed against Saloon Keeper Qulnn was to be disposed of Monday, and said he was very much surprised when he read in the Journal yesterday an account of the farce that the board called an inquiry into the charges made. The fact that the board did not call a single witness who knew anything about tho matter, but received from Superintendent Colbert a lot of statements of people who, from their own words, were not competent witnesses, except in rebuttal, seemed to strike the funny side of Mr. Hitter's nature. As a lawyer he did not see how a trial could be had when the complaining witnesses were not present or given an opportunity to testify to what they know. Y'esterday morning Captain Hitter sent another letter to the boartl demanding that the trial be held according to some rule of procedure that would give an opportunity for those who know something to testify. The letter follows: "I am informed that Thomas Colbert, superintendent of police, to whom you have reierred this matter, has made a report. I had no information, neither had my clients. that Mr. Colbert was proceeding with the investigation in that case. His investigation has evidently been secretly conducted. I should have been glad to have aided him in getting the actual facts in that ease, and could have furnished him the names of witnesses who knew and would testify to tho facts alleged in the compiaint liled with you. It seems that these witnesses have been carefully avoided, and others sought who knew- nothing. In the complaint liled with you in this case information was given you of gross neglect of eluty by your otiicers. It was also asked that you lix a time and issue subpoenas for witnesses for the purpose of ascertaining the truth in tho case. The parties in this proceeding still urge you to lix a time and i.sue subpoenas, and grant a hearing in the usual and only way by which the truth can be reached; that witnesses be compelled to attend before you. be examined and cross-examined; that you see them and hear them, and have a chance, to reach an unbiased conclusion. I have no purpose, neither have my clients, as 1 believe, to do anything in this matter other than to bring out tne actual facts. This the-y insist shall be done. I am nowengaged in a trial, and will be for two or three days yet. after which I will be ready at any time you may designate to present this matter to your boord. "Justice to yourselves and to all parties concerned, as well as to the public, requires that this matter hhall not be terminated by your beard In the summary and ex-parte so-called investigation by the superintendent of police, which has just been made."

BAD NEWS FOR WHEAT

HEARS TOOK ADVANTAGE OF IT AM) IIAI.MEKEI) THE PRICE 1 7-SC. Weakness Extended to Other Markets, Which All Scored Losses, Pork Declining Slightly. CHICAGO, Jan. CG.-Wheat had a greater decline to-day than on any previous day for several weeks, and sold below 7Sc for the first time since the middle of October last.' May brought 7?c at the start and sold at 77ssC near the close, finally resting at TTvgC. a decline of lTc for the day. Corn declined Uc. Oats made a new low record for both January and May, tho latter month resting at a vie decline. Provisions declined 5074. In wheat the marked weakness of the opening Liverpool quotations was all that was necessary to make a decidedly wabbly start, as traders, disappointed at the effect of the government figures on forthcoming crops, needed but little to start them to unloading. Opening sales for May were made at 7S"8079c; compared with yesterday's closing prices of 7347a7!sC and by 11 o'clock the market had declined to 7Sc. The government, besides its estimate of the home crop, published a cpmmunication from Minister Buchanan, representative In Argentine of the United States, to the effe-ct that Argentine would have 18,000,000 bu wheat for export. Minister Buchanan's letter was dated Dec. 9, and, of course, relates, to a condition of affairs which later advices show to have changed very much. Tho report, nevertheless, had some effect. Chicago and Northwestern receipts were again very light, but that was ascribed to the efi'ect of the extreme cold on transportation facilities. Chicago got 43 carloads, against 131 a year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth reported receipts of 127 cars, compared with 268 a week ago and Wi cars the corresponding day of last year. Atlantic port clearances were equal, with wheat and lloiir, to 315.000 bu. Bradstreet's world's visible showed a decrease for the week of 1.137.000 bu. The heaviness of the market here increased as the close of the session approacred. There was a general giving up of the ship by the bulls in the last fifteen minutes and a drop of another cent per bushel in price. May had recovered to 7S8c and declined to 77c, with 77c the last figure. The temporary advance to 7V4c was caused by a 4d closing recoverey at Liverpool. Corn was slow and weak, influenced by the break in wheat end the expectation of larger receipts to follow the cold weather and the probable rcductio of retail freights from the Interior. There vas considerable liquidation and u fair amount of short selling. The price was already so low, however, that only a He decline resulted. Mav opened a shade lower, at 24T23TbC, declined to 22'tiZZ4C and closed at 2334C Oats established a new low record to-day and that fact was the principal item of news. The feeling was weak from start to finish and closed at the low price of the day. Tho decline was brought about through sympathy with wheat, although some liquidation was going on in a small way. May opened a shade lower, at E4,c. and declined to lilTc. where it closed. Trading in provisions was extremely dull. The sellers were chiefly confined to packers, and even their offerings were light, so that the pit was half deserted during the greater part of the session. They were sufficient, however, to produce a small general decline. May pork closed about 7;c lower, at $7.f2Vi7.?5. May lard about '.-c lower, at $4f 4.02!2. and May ribs about 5c lower, at ?4. .';.
