Disturbing? Element In tbe New* ol Farther Chinese Complication*— Local Market* Dali. At New York yesterday money on call was easy at 1%@2 per cent.; last loan, 2 per cent. Prime mercantile paper, 3®3% per cent. Sterling exchange was easier, with actual business in bankers’ bills at $4.83%® 4.84% for demand and at $4.82%@4.84% for sixty days; posted rates, $4.S3'a4S3Vi end $4.85%®4.86; commercial bills, $4.82.

Total sales of stocks 232,500 shares, including: C., B. & Q., 11,605; Louisville & Nashville, 42250; Manhattan, 21,450; Metropolitan, 9,220; New Jersey Central, 7,420; New, Y'ork Central, 5,290; North American, 3,950; North Pacific, 35,300; Northern Pacific preferred. 12,190; Ontario & Western, 9,850; Rock Island, 4,225; St. Paul, 11,845; Union Pacific, 12,110; Wheeling & Lake Erie, 3,975; Tobacco, 3,990; Chicago Great Western, 4,000; People's Gas, 9,700; Consolidated Gas, 6,912; Sugar, 37,715. Substantial fractional losses were the rule on the Stock Exchange yesterday. Sugar and Metropolitan Street Railway shares were notable exceptions, showing gains of % and 2 points, respectively. Sugar’s strength was attributable to Washington advices that Hawaiian annexation was improbable and Metropolitan Street-rail-way advanced on talk of further extension. A disturbing element in speculation was the grave appearance of the Chinese situation with Japan mobilizing her forces and Prance reinforcing her Pacific fleet. Another matter that attracted considerable attention was the announcement from Washington that a vote would be taken next Tuesday on the Teller resolution. Commission houses seemed the principal sellers during the day and there were large realizations i.* Northern Pacific preferred, which receded 1 point. Talk of the increased likelihood of consolidation of gas companies brought about an appreciation in value of 3% per cent, in Consolidated Gas. A feature of the arbitrage trading was the buying of Ontario A Western. The drive against New Jersey Central was on the Court of Appeals deciding to allow a review of the Coal Trust eases. The price broke badly and led off at 114 decline, unfavorably affecting the general list. Among the declines were American Tobacco preferred and Tennessee Coal and Iron, one each, and Chicago & Eastern Illinois preferred, 1%. Among the advances were Central Pacific, 1%; Illinois Steel, 114; Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis preferred, I*4. The bond market was quite active, with a parked demand for transcontinental issues apparent. The aggregate sales were $4,048,000. Government bonds continued to sag with the new fours leading.

There Is little worthy of mention in the local markets, Bad country roaus continue to interfere with trade, but prices carry a steady tone and hardening- tendency in some lines. There is a moderate degree of activity in tWe sugar market at unchanged prices. Coffee Is unchanged. Canned goods, rice and such articles are meeting wiihr fair sale at unchanged but firm prices. Choice apples are in fair demand, but poor stock sells slow. Cranberries are In large supply and all tropical fruit is selling well. Oranges on a large supply rule easier. Irish potatoes are in active request and price hardening. In other lines there are no new features, unless it be poultry, which is in better request and firmer.

When the “Sermon on the Mount” is contrasted with other forms of eloquence, Its superiority is at ones apparent. They were for crises. Their fame and usefulness, comparatively, passed with the occasion that gave them birth. They have gone to the oblivion of congressional and parliamentary records. A few of them only find rlace ill neglected volumes of “masterpieces of eloquence.” • • * The glory of Jesus' inaugural sermon is that it addresses Itself to the universal human heart. It has a development of its own running parallel to that of the race. It unfolds itself in practical helpfulness of every emergency. Its principles are ao fundamental as to be always practicable. That is the secret of its perennial pow'er. * • • It was spoken, nearly two thousand years age, to the unsynagogued congregation. That assembly dissolved, but In each successive generation anew and ever-in-creasing throng has come together. As from tlje sounding-board of the open heavens, the old sermon has struck the ear of each new congregation. The sermon Jesus preached Is no dream of ideal eloquence. It lives in every dialect. It is the most potent composition in written speech. Millions know it by heart. Millions live by it. * • * The likeness of some of Jesus’ sayings to the aphorisms of the rabbis may be admitted. But when such rabbinical maxims are put back into their context they are usually found to be on a lower plane, and often moving in a direction opjiosite to the teaching of Jesus. He used modes of speech current in His day, but made them vehicle of diviner wisdom. * * • Jesus stands the original and unceasing teacher of the race. He speaks with authority to the universal human heart, illuminating, inspiring, empowering it. Hs could say, not only “I speak truth,” but “I am truth.” He is original source, not transmitter; fountain, not conduit! Impossible that the stream, as it proceeded from His lips, should be perturbed o. corrupted! * * * He is not the institutor o? a system of doctrine or the formulator of a ritual. He inspires a life in the soul, sets up a kingdom within, consisting not in sacrifice and oblation, but righteousness and its concomitants, peace and joy. So He said, “The words I speak unto you are spirit, are life." MOSAIC FROM COMMENTARIES, Sermon cn the Mount: Platform of the new dispensation.—Whedon.

Blessed: The fundamental formula of the gospel.—Slier. Exordium: Sweet Invitation to the fellowship of true righteousness, and of blesssedness in it. -Ibid. THE TEACHER’S QUIVER. Our great familiarity with the beatitudes is in a sense a disadvantage. We have them too much by rede. They are words with a pleasing sound. We need to find the spirit under the letter. Jesus’ purpose In this sermon was to unfold the principles of the kingdom of heaven. Each beatitude, therefore, has a specific meaning pertaining to that kingdom. It is not the poor in general, or those who mourn on account of bereavement, or those who in a common sense are humble—not such that are felicitated. Only these in particular are congratulated who are conscious of the emptiness and poverty of their souls. In such there Is room for the kingdom. Those who on account of this are sorrowful and penitent are in the -way of divine comfort. Still another subjective phrase is depicted in the word “meek.” The contrast is to the selfsatisfied Pharisaical spirit, which makes the Savior's work a supererogation. Again, a holy appetite is indispensable. Emptiness, penitence, humility, desire —these are the conditions of the entrance of the kingdom; which comforts, enriches and fills. Again, the suitor for divine mercy must himself be disposed to show the same quality towards his fellows. Heart-purity is the sine qua non of seeing God. Seeing, which is the Hebrew equivalent of possessing. Jesus passes now from partly or wholly subjective phases to an objective activity. The children of God imitate their Elder Brother, whose greatest achievement was reconciliation. They have a holy ambition to bring their fellow's into peaceable relations with their Heavenly Father, and to make them all one in Christ. The final felicitation is of those who endure persecution and falsely-grounded reproach for the Master’s own sake. Their reward in heaven is assured. Th.s is tbe martyr’s beatification. Thus as Pressense says, “The beatitudes begin with weeping, and are closed with blood.”

Trust. He who hath led will lead All through the wilderness; He who hath fed will feed; He w’ho hath blessed will bless; He who hath heard thy cry Will never close His ear; He who hath marked thy faintest sigh Will not forget thy tear. He loveth always, aileth never, So rest on Him, to-day, forever! Then trust Him for to-day. As thine unfailing friend. And let Him l?ad thee all the way Who loveth to the end. And let the morrow rest In His beloved hand; His good is better than our best. As we shall understand— If. trusting Him who faileth never, We rest on Him, to-day, forever! —Margaret E. Sangster.

WHEAT FLATTENED OUT THIS WAS AFTER ENGLISH MARKET RAISED THE PRICE A CENT. Evidence that the Letter Crowd Liquidated Some of It* Recent Heavy Purchase*—Pork Higher. * CHICAGO, Jan. 21.—After advancing lc to-day on the remarkable strength of English markets wheat flattened out and closed vnehanged for May, hut July held % , S%c of its gain. Heavy Argentine shipments rather took the wind out of the bulls’ sails. Corn and oats showed a little more activity, but substantially no changes in price. Provisions closed unchanged to 7%c higher. In wheat speculators were treated to a mild sensation at the opening by the action of the Liverpool market. The quotations fiom there were up l%d per cental for futures. No. I Northern spring on the spot had been raised Id per cental. Even the London cargo market showed an advance of from 3d to 6d per quarter. May opened here with a jump to 92%c, with some sales at the same time at ?2%c. The closing price yesterday was 91%c. July started at from 84%c to 84%c, compared with 83%c yesterday afternoon. Outside markets also were very strong, especially New York and Minneapolis, and this had its effect. The reason for the strength of the Liverpool market tvas said to be on account of the growing scarcity of offerings from Argentina.. A cablegram from Rosario said, however, that the farmers’ deliveries in that country were retarded by rain, and that plenty would be forthcoming later; that the area in wheat had been large, the yield heavy, and that no reductions In the estimated export surplus were being made. But another reason for Liverpool’s strength was continuance of drought in India., and, notwithstanding the cablegram from Rosario, Liverpool reaffirmed earlier statements of scarcity of Argentina offerings. There was plenty of selling, both of July and of May, many holders taking advantage of the sharp opening advance to realize, but declines of only about %e resulted In each case. When realizing ceased prices went up. Chicago received twenty-six cars of wheat; Minneapolis and Duluth reported 358 cars, against 364 a week ago and 276 the corresponding day of the year before. Primary Western market receipts, all told, were 368,000 bushels, against 271,000 bushels the year before. Minneapolis stocks for the week were expected to show 300,000 bushels’ increase, and Duluth 500,000 bushels’ increase, and on that basis and estimate of the week’s exports 500,000 bushels decrease in visible is looked for. Last year .the decrease for the similar week was 1,164,000 bushels. Liverpool closing prices showed net gains for the day of %and for March and for May and %and for July. Paris noted 25 centimes decline in January flour and 5 centimes advance in March-June. Antwerp advanced 12% centimes in both red winter and Walla Walla wheat. The clearances from Atlantic and gulf ports in wheat and flour were equal to 633 000 bushels. The market here began to weaken after the posting of weekly shipments from Argentina, which rather confirmed the earlier Rosario cable concerning the large surplus. The shipments were given at 328,000 bushels. Selling became quiet free after that, and it was the impression that the Leiter crowd liquidated some o? its July and May holdings. May declined to 91%e, and was bringing 91%c at the close. July sold down to 84c and closed at that. A fairly good trade was done in corn, without any material change in prices. There was rain throughout the corn belt, cables were strong and Argentine shipments were small. With those helps and the influence of wheat the corn market kept a little above yesterday’s prices most of the session, but lost the slight advantage when wheat turned weak. May ranged from 29%c to 28%©29c and closed a shade lower, at 23%® 29c. Trade in oats showed an improvement, and the market was most of the time quite firm. There was good buying of May for New Y’ork account again. Commission houses bought July and there was a slight narrowing of the spread. The early strength of wheat and a good shipping, demand were influences. May ranged from 23%c to 23%c arid closed unchanged at 23%c. Provisions were active, with a good demand at the start, principally from ’packers. A firm hog market also caused some covering by shorts, and the market scored a fair advance. The market eased off subsequently. in sympathy with the decline in wheat, short-ribs exhibiting the most weakness. The closing was easy. May pork 7%c higher, at $9.77%; May lard. 5c higher, at $4.82%, and May ribs unchixnged. at $4.82%. Estimated receipts for Saturday—Wheat, 38 ears; corn, 400 cars; oats, 285 cars; hogs, 18,000 head.

Dry tioodi. NEW YORK, Jan, 21.—T0-day’s market shows strong price tendencies in all quarters. The demand Is still somewhat limited in all cotton goods lines. Strike conditions are not as noticeable as disturbing factors in the market as has been the case heretofore. The improvement in the print cloth market has been reflected in nearly all branches of the cotton goods industry. How soon quotable advances will be made is as yet an open question. It is probable that strong efforts will be made to sell goods at present prices before advances are announced. Staple cottons show small gains to date. They ure in mild demand in both brown and bleached lines. Print cloths remain strong. Manufacturers are refusing bids for extra spots and early deliveries at 2%c plus 1 per cent. There has been an advance in 38!/ 2 -inch 64 squares, these being unobtainable at 39e. The market on all odd goods is very firm. The demand is said to be spirited. In prints to-day’s market shows no change of moment. Butter, Eggs and Cheeie. NEW YORK, Jan. 21.—Butter—Receipts. 3.16?; packages. Market quiet.

A ROYAL ALLIANCE. Diplomatic Hohmohsi Why Arcbduclie** Elizabeth Should Murry. Washington Post. It is announced in Austrian court circles that the young Archduchess Elizabeth, only daughter of the late Crown Prince Rudolph,, is about to become engaged t<* Prince Rupert of Bavaria, the heir presumptive to the Bavarian crown. While th* prince is a coarse-looking, heavily built, brutal looking young man, whose intrigue* with actresses of the Munich theaters have on several occasions lead to his punishment by arrest, and attracted widespread attention by reason of the escapades in which they involved him. yet from a political point of view there are very obvious advantages in the match. If the young archduchess marries him, she will, in the ordinary course of events, follow the example of every princess of the reigning house o? Hapsburg, who wed* a foreigner, renounce all claims and right* to the succession of the Austrian throne. Indeed, Austrian princesses who wed princes of the Hapsburg family itself renounce their own rights in order to subordinate them to those of their husband. That is to say a princess who is very near to the throne, and who becomes the wife of an imperial prince, who is much further down In the line of succession, loses her own rights and merely becomes a participator in those of her husband. Now, as long as the little Archduchee* Elizabeth, who is In her lifteenth, year, remains unmarried she constitutes a sourc* of danger to the succession of the AustroHungarian throne. True, there are no doubts as to the right of the Emperor’* eldest nephew, Archduke Francis Ferdinand, to succeed to the throne of Austria, where the Salic law has always existed. But there are very serious questions that are certain to be raised about his succession to the crown of Hungary unless ther little Archduchess Elizabeth is placed out of running. For the vast majority of people in Hungary do not believe in the existence or in the legality of the so-called pragmatia sanction, the authenticity of which has been questioned in the Hungarian Legislature without the government being able to furnish any satisfactory reply or even to fur* nish any proof as to Its existence. Now, If this pragmatic sanction does not exist, and if there Is no real hard and fast treaty between Austria and Hungary on the subject of the succession to the throne or Hungary, then in that case th* nonexistence of the Salic law in Hungary renders the young Archduchess Elizabeth as only daughter of the late crown the next heir to the crown of Hungary. This condition of affairs would be undoubtedly taken advantage of by all those natlonalltes In Hungary, who are so bent on bringing about an entire separation between Austria and Hungary, two countrie* that have In reality as little in common a* Sweden and Norway. Russia and Boland or England and Ireland. Moreover, the idea of Archduke Francis Ferdinand becoming King of Hungary Is distasteful in the extreme to the Magyars, the large masses of whom may be described as acU vanced Liberals. For the archduke educated in th< most bigoted manner in a religious, as well as in a political sense, to a firm belief in the divine right of King* and to the traditional rights of Austria to tyrannize Hungary, is so utterly unfitted to rule the Magyars that there are many people who are convinced that the demiso of the old Emperor will result iri Hungary cutting herself entirely adrift from Austria and resorting to civil war. if necessary, to avoid the thraldom of such a King a* Francis Ferdinand. There is no doubt that this danger 1* diminished by the marriage of Archduchess Elizabeth to the future King of Bavaria. <i> A Hateful Man. New York Evening Sun. Mrs. Bargain Hunter came home the other nay with a perfect dream of a purchase (a* usual.) "And what do you suppose I paid for it?" sh? asked (also as usual.)

"Why should I suffer the pangs of hunger any longer?” exclaimed the discouarged, desperate man. "1 will end this misery at once and forever.” Whereupon he rushed out of the hous* and made his way to a clinic, where skilled operators were removing human stomach* free of charge.
