LIQUIDATION OF SHARES MARKED FEATURE OP THE WALLSTREET SITUATION. A Few Notable Advances In a Sea of Reactions The Money Market Conditions of Local Tradlns. At New York yesterday money on call was firm at SJMtt per cent.; last loan, 4 per cent. Prime mercantile paper. E6 per cent. Sterling exchange was easier, with actual business In bankers' bills at l.S3i for demand and $4.S6Viet.80H for sixty days; posted rates. 14.81 4.S2"and UHHSI W; commercial bills,' $4.7öiö 4.S0U-- " Silver certificates were 64g6öic; bar sliver. 4c; Mexican dollars. ;i&c. Silver bars at London were 30J an ounce. According to the phrase of the professional traders In stocks, a reaction in prices was theoretically due yesterday. The reaction was strenuously contested by the bull element, but their efforts proved futile and prices generally show losses on the day. A sudden and characteristic break in Sugar in the final hour bad not a little to do wUh the decisive coursa of the market downward. Sugar suffered from very heavy llqujdation after its recent sharp rise, which was not accounted for by any news. The day's break was eq ially without explanation, except the fact of the previous rise and the resulting realizing. The drop In Sugar extended to 34 points. The weakness was not extreme at other points in the list, profit-taking having proceeded In an orderly and quiet way during the greater part of the day. without serious effect on the prices. In the late dealings manipulation by bears was In evidence, stocks making wide declines on light transactions. The theory which professional operators offer to explain a reaction like that of today 'is that stocks, as a result of a steady and prolonged advance, had passed from strong and organized control Into the hands of weak and scattered buyers outside, who do not command large resources and who lack great skill in speculative methods to protect their holdings. The anxiety to sell of this class of -holders on any sign of reaction becomes a drag on a bull mar ket always in due process of time. There were rumors centered about Brooklyn Transit during the day, which included rumors of change of control of the Metropolitan Street-railway and allegations of a newly acquired interest by the Pennsylvania Railroad in the property. The stock was pushed up an extreme of 54 on these rumors, but fell back 24 in the late selling. In the railroad list Southern Pacific was the conspicuous feature, with an extreme advance of nearly two points and a net gain of Vi. The new Chicago & Alton securities, which were traded in for the first time, advanced steadily for the common fttock, which rose 3 points, while the prefererd recovered a decline. There was nothing in the money market to disturb speculative borrowers. The maximum rate for call loans was 4i per cent., against 5 per cent. Wednesday, and the rate yielded to 4 per cent in the late dealings. There were no deposits, in the subtreasury fur transfer to the interior. Sterling exchange steadied slightly on the firmer mcmey market in London, which resulted from the weak return of the Dank of England. But the improvement in condition of the Hank of France was really of greater importance, as Taris is looked to to conserve the money situation. The French institution gained in gold during the week i2.l73.0oo while Its note issue was contracted Ja.4lo.u00 and loans and discounts of the bank were repaid to the extent of It is evident that New Turk can draw further gold if it is desired, but of a total already engaged abroad for import of Jia.DOO.Ow). less than f4.tC0,0uO has been atuallv received and placed in the banking reserves.

RECOVERING THE LOSSES

WHEAT REGAINS NEARLY A CEXT OX HEAVY CASH SALES. Corn Aided to a Small Gain by the Leading; Cereal Oats and Provisions Substantially Higher. CHICAGO, Oct. 23. Wheat was firm to-day on the big cash sales here yesterday. December closing TiQlc higher; corn closed Ijc and oats HSUc up. Provisions at the close were 124'820c improved. There will be no Board of Trade session Saturday. Wheat started the day active and nervous, December at 72g73c. UQ4c over the previou day's close. Liverpool showed a declines as bad been expected; recelpt3 wre liberal and the weather still engaged in helping the farmer get his grain to market. There was a large short Interest here and in the Northwest, and it was alarmed over the heavy cash sales here yesterday, news of which was not announced till tiw day's trading was over. It was their pressure which started the market upward. Later further cash business was reported, and Liverpool recovered most of the early loss. The Northwest sold moderately early, but bought some also, and later was principally on the purchasing side of the pit. December, without any material reaction, despite some rroftt-taking, advanced to 73fkc, at which the market closed, lc ovr yesterday. New York reported twenty-two loads taken for export. Clearances at the seaboard were equal in wheat and flour to 462,000 bushels. Priaiary receipts for the day aggregated 94LOOO bushels, compared with 968,000 last year. Mltneapolls and Duluth reported 511 cars, against 539 last week and 476 a year ago. Local receipts were 222 cars, four of which graded contract. Corn was quiet. The news was bearish, the Price Current asserting that conditions were unfavorable to any advance of prices. The wheat strength, however, was too strenuous to be overlooked, and com accordingly allowed Itself to advance moderately. The cash demand was more active, but countiy arrivals also showed an increase. December sold between 347,ic and üä4c. closing 4c higher at 354c Receipts were 414 cars. There was a moderate trade In oats, some improvement in the outside trade being noticeable. The wheat strength and buying by cereal food companies helped the price. December sold between 21 vc and 22c. and closed Vulic higher at 22c. Receipts were 151 cars. Shipments were four times as large as the receipts. Provisions were fairly active and firm. Themarket started higher on moderate receipts and an advance In prices at the yards. On covering by shorts the list advanced. Late in the session buying of ribs by influential packers gave that article an upward impetus. January pork sold between $11.10 and $11.20 and closed 2oc higher at $11.174; January lard between $6.524 and $i.65, closing 124c up at $6.624, and January ribs between $5.874 and $5.95, with the clos 124c higher at $5.95.

Of all the extraordinary stories that have found their way into print in connection with the South African war, now drawing to a close, there is none that at first sight appears more extravagant than the one widely circulated in the continental newstapers of the old world, according to which Charles Stewart Parnell, the -celebrated Irish leader and statesman, is not only alive and in good health, but has actually been lighting for several months past in the Boer ranks against the English. Indeed some even go so far as to insist that the elusive General De Wet, the most successful of all the Transvaal leaders, and whose feats in harassing and tricking the English commanders have served to endow him with tuch a halo of fame that in the stories told of him it Is impossible to define the point where reality ends and mere legend begins, is no other than the virtual creator of the home rule party, who is generally believed to have been carried to his grave some ten years ago. Nor is this belief confined to the continental press. It is prevalent among the peasantry and poorer classes in various party of Ireland, where the people appear to be convinced that Parnell, realizing that his existence after the scandal in connection with the O'Shea divorce case would constitute a source of weakness to the cause of his beloved country, resolved to disappear either forever or at any rate until Ireland had obtained her own and tho fad that he was still alive could no longer affect her destinies injuriously. It is asserted that the coffln purporting to contain his remains holds nothing but a mere clay figure or sand, and that, having thaved off his beard, he had without any difficulty whatsoevsr made his escape in lhe guise of a priest. To those who may feel disposed to scoff at this strange story and to dismiss it from their minds as unworthy of any consideration I would point out that Pamell's career and character were so utterly unlike those of the average English speaking statesman and politician, that he was so thoroughly unconventional and original in all that he rid and even tald that he is Just the kind of a man to adopt some such peculiar rrethod of withdrawing from public life and irom public view or else because he had become disgusted at the treatment to which he had been subjected by those of his followers und adherents whom he rlghtJy considered to owe him a deep debt of gratitude and of loyalty. I do not for one moment helieve that Parnell is still alive or that he has anything in common with the Boer General De Wet excepting a fondness peculiar to both of them for investing their movements with the most profound and impenetrable mystery. But what I do wish to sty is this, that If there is any one man whom I have known who in my opinion would be cap-ible of playing such a hoax upon the public it is assuredly Charles Stewart Parnell.

Cattle Receipts. 525; shipments' small. If any different, there was a little more life in the market for good cattle than yesterday, but at the same time there were no urgent orders and salesmen were unable to advance prices.

The hog market opened quiet, because buyers, in keeping with other places, were again bidding lower prices. It did not take long to establish a trading basis, however, and soon, with local packers free buyers and fair competition from other sources, the offerings were changing hands promptly at a decline of 2liff5c In prices, the bulk of the sales being about 5c below yesterday. The close was steady at the decline. Quotations: Good to choice medium and heavy $4.604.70 Mixed and heavy packing 4.504.

In harmony with reports from the general markets, trade opened weak at fully 5c decline. The. supply was rather liberal and was comprised largely of light and medium mixed grades of fair quality and reasonably well suited to the trade. However, there continued a scarcity of prime heavy weights, which are in strong demand at quotations. Light weights, which constitute the largest xortlons of the offerings, have suffered most. Trade ruled quiet throughout, although orders were quite liberal; salesmen were rather reluctant to accept prices. However, all were sold in good season.

MARYS VILLE, O., Oct. 25.-Pep;oneracy is the defense which will be made In th trial of Rosslyn Fcrrell. now in roeret-s here for the alkpt-d rnunlor of Adams Etpress Messenger Charles Lane and the rubbery of the cxpre5s safe. Juror James Shirk, who has b-n ill with measW since last S.aturday, appeared In tho Jury box this mornlnff and the trial was resumed. The State offered numerous exhibits and then reftcd their cate. Mrs. Annie lllggendaff. of Fteubenvllle, was the firit witness called for the defense. She Is the pi Isoner' s aunt and testified that his father and mother are flrnt cou?lns and that his grandmother married htr (the Trandniother'5) uncle. Charles Y Sheets. Emma V. Sheets Itewart. all relatives of the prlisoner. testified regardlnj? intermarriage in the? fam lly and the insanity of several members. ThH afternoon August Orr, his wife and James Stahl, continued in tho i-ame line of testimony on behalf of the defence. Harwood Huntsman, who had worked with Ferrell in the express office at Suu benvüle, testified that Ferrell whs home time referred to as "Crazy" Ferrtll or 'Daffy" Ferrell. Cross-examination, however, brought out the fact that lVrrell's tehavior had never indicated in any way that he was less sane than any of his asso elates. Tobias Ferrell. father of the prisoner, Ttas the last witness on the stand, and hit exar.lnatlon had not been concluded when codTt adjourned until to-morrow. J lis testimony proved to be unimportant. Ha had seen Ferrell about five minutes on Wednesday preceding the crime axd It? toy then appeared very ucrvous.
