Ti lde Fluctuation V Frequent, the Close Brine; at a Net fin in Local Trade Helped by Detter Weather. At New York yesterday money on call was steady at 2Q2 per cent. Prime mercantile paper, 2WQi per cent. Sterling exchange was easier, with actual business In bankers' bill at l.87!4 tor demand and KS3 for sixty days; posted rates, RS434.84tf and 4.SS; commercial bills, 1.82iÖ4.83U. Silver certificates were C3H64c; bar silver, 62ic; Mexican dollars. 4$Hc Bar silver at London went below 20d for the first time in months and sold at 28 15-16d an ounce. The Influences in the New York stock market resolved themselves yesterday Into several distinct component parts, which operated in conflict a part of the time and never In clearly defined concert. There was a palpable effort to open prices, high. In fact, brokers in a number of stocks admitted the receipt of orders to make first prices ,as high as possible. This is a familiar device of traders who have gone long of stocks during a rise on one day to get the greatest possible benefit from the relapse. St. Paul and Northern Pacific were conspicuously affected In this way, the former opening up l4 and the latter rising almost as much and then running off again to -near Monday night's level. The same stocks came into prominence again late In the day, after the news had been received of Queen Victoria's death. After that event was reported there was a. pause in the activity of the market, as though awaiting its effect on prices, and shortly afterwards room traders set to work to bid up price3 again. They lifted St. Paul an extreme 4 over Monday night, Xorthern Pacific 2i and the grangers, Pacifies, trunk lines and more prominent stocks generally from one to two points. The same traders were active in Sugar all day. making the extreme advance 2. On the other hand, the sensational movement in Missouri Pacific was brought to a sudden stop after a threepoint Jump at the opening, and the Wabash stocks also fell back. The extreme decline in Missouri Pacific was 7 and it closed at a loss of 3i. This action of the stock naturally caused some incredulity regarding the many rumors afloat on Monday of a coming consolidation of the Southwestern systems and buying by a prominent capitalist for. control. The other members of the Southwestern group were, however, well sustained, and the absorption of Wa bash debenture bonds continued on an enormous scale and at a price level above that of Monday. Missouri Pacific was In urgent demand In the loan crowd and commanded as high as H per cent, premium for use by the shorts. This gave color to the belief of some of the traders that the buying of the stocks had resulted In a corner, leaving a very heavy short Interest with Its requirements unprovided for. Amalgamated Copper again moved wildly. Jumping nearly three points at the opening and then falling back Z. The steel stocks were comparatively neglected, but the undertone was weak. Federal Steel fell away 2 and other members of the group from 1 to lr4 after small opening advances. The late notable rise was not well maintained, especially In the stocks which were bid up most aggressively, and the closing was active and rather easy below the best. The level of prices at the close was, however, substantially higher than on Monday and the undertone of the market during the day waa steady. Standard Oil dropped to $790? 735 a share. The announcement of further gold exports had little effect on the market, as money continues notably easier. The Wabash debenture IVs led the bond market in point of activity. Texas & Pacific seconds rose $ per cent, on light transactions. Otherwise the market was rather dull but firm. Total sales, at par value were' 4.032,CO0. United States refunding twos declined per cent, and the threes, coupon, advanced 4 per cent, on the last call.

Trade Fairly Active, with Steady Prices In Mont Linea. The mild winter thus far undoubtedly has checked the volume of trade In some lines. Still, the wholesale grocers, the druggists, the iron and steel houses and commission merchants have been doing a very satisfactory business, and the loss Is only comparative, as to what might have been. The commission merchants have been able to ship goods with the exception of about ten days, the entire fall and winter, without danger of the shipments being damaged by cold. The produce merchants, as well, have done a larger business than usual, for the last sixty days at least, and poultry, eggs and butter have commanded higher than the average prices, from weefc to week. Eggs have dropped to 15 cents. The packin? houses have teen Joins a good domestic trade, and of late exiort trade has improved Komewhat. The hide market continues dull, and flour Is rather quiet, prices showing but little change.' All staple groceries are steady In price and are moving freely. The local grain market shows a little more activity than la?t week, but the receipts are light.

LOST ALL IT HAD MADE

WHEAT'S ADVAXCi: OP MONDAY FULLY WIPED OUT TUESDAY. Corn nnd Onta Weak nnd Lower In Sympathy Provision Depressed by the Heavy llofg Receipts. ' CHICAGO, Jan. Si-Weak cables, heavy receipts and a slack cash demand caused a net decline of ll'ic In May wheat to-day. Corn closed 8c lower in sympathy and oat9 34c lower. Provisions at the close were StiTVic depressed. Wheat went up a cent yesterday. Today the stuff bought the previous session was sold and .the market dropped back to the place It occupied Saturday. The market was largely a local one. May wheat opened ic lower at TlQTlc, and soon after touched 75c. The Initial depression was based on the fact that Liverpool showed a decline in the face of the advance here yesterday. Northwest receipts were large and it was. generalis believed that reports of yesterday's big export business had been exaggerated, all of which added to the depression. The market struggled along for two houre between 74Q73c without any particular pressure being exerted. The heavy primary receipts and the failure of any cash demand to put in an appearance later caused renewed selling and May dropped to Ti'gC and closed weak, lfilUc under yesterday, at HYs'aliMc. Exporters reported seven loads taken. Seaboard clearances In wheat and flour were equal to 340.-' 0 bu. Primary Western receipts' aggregated 4S7.000 bu, compared with 9)6,000 bu last year. Minneapolis and Duluth reported 303 cars, against 466 cars last week and 210 cars a year ago. Local receipts were. 107 cars, four of contract grade. Corn was quiet and easy in sympathy with wheat. Receipts were 801 cars and there was also a bearish consideration taken in connection with the favorable weather and easy cables. Had not so many Influential people arrayed themselves on the bull side under the theory that there Is a demand for the supply, the market undoubtedly would have declined still further As It was to-day however, the pressure brought on the market was not heavy. The demand was scattered. May sold between 3STisC and 3St3S?8c and closed c lower at 38SSSe. Long oats were for sale nearly all day, and, as the demand for them was tame, they suffered In consequence. The wheat weakness was the Influence. Receipts were 313 cars. May sold between-54c and 2778c and closed 88Uc down at ilTiliSwC. Elevator interests sold, but pit traders. Joined by some commission house agents, were buyers, and the tone on the whole was steady. Provisions were active, but showed an undertone of heaviness. The. opening was weak because hog receipts were heavy and prices at the yards depressed. Buying of pork and ribs caused a rally during the first hour, but prices eased off again In sympathy with wheat and the close was heavy. May pork sold between $13.90 and $13.75 and closed lSc lower at $13.S0. May lard sola between 17.40 and 7.55, closing 5&74c down at $7.37.37, and May ribs sold between $7.02',i'U7.05 and $6.95, with the close 10c depressed at $6.25. Estimated receipts for to-morrow: Wheat, 35 cars; corn, 299 cars; oats, 155 cars; hogs, 40.000 head. Leading futures ranged as follows: Articles. Open- High- Low- CIosWheat ing. est. est. Ing.

Cattle Receipts, 700; shipments. 100. The receipts of cattle were not large and the quality generally was possibly a little more satisfactory than the average the past few days, but there were few really prime kinds represented. In keeping with the healthy condition of the trade everywhere, the market opened with all buyers In the field, and with rather active competition It did not take long to exhaust the supply at fully steady to strong prices, and some dealers quote an advance of 10c.

The receipts of hogs were the largest in over a month, and nearly three times larger than a year ago. The supply was surprisingly large here and elsewhere, and the market, of course, opened very weak, with the bidding decidedly lower, and it took some time to establish a trading basis. Some few scratch sales of really fancy hogs sold at the start at about Vc decline, but aside from these there were probably no sales that were not 10c lower, and not a few were no doubt 12Hc below yesterday. At a very late hour the demand had not exhausted the supply, and It seemed evident that salesmen would either have to make further concessions or carry over some in first hands.

About the usunl variety of animals wer represented, with the larger percentage workers and chunks weighing 1.100 to 1,500 lb The quality was about like the average for several weeks. The demand for cavalry horses was responsible for a good trade in that line at private 6ale, and prices were generally up . to expectations. They required blocky built horses fourteen to fifteen hands high, weighing around 1.100 to 1,200 lbf and they paid from $65 to $S3. The regular auction, sale did not begin until about 1 o'clock, and with a smaller attendance of buyers there was not much life In the bidding. Salesmen, however, were not Inclined to. make any concession in prices, and sales reported up to a late hour did not show that there was any change compared with last week. Good blocks, weighing 1,300 to 1,500 lbs, sold from $S5 to $125, and a few sales of extra animals were reported above that price. There were not many mules offered, and there was a little firmer tone in the market than last week. Elsewhere. CHICAGO. Jan. 22. Cattle Receipts, 4.500, Including 600 Texans.

THE WARD FAMILY DIFFICULTIES IX THE COURTS. A Fine Legal Point Is Involved in the Case Other Cases In the Conrts. A unique suit involving a fine legal point and a family estrangement Is pending In Judge Leathers's court." The plaintiff brings suit as next friend to her granddaughter against her own son to set aside a deed. Some time ago Mary Ward, as next friend to Jennie Ward, filed a suit against Thomas Ward to set aside a deed. Ward'3 wife held three lots In her name, which were deeded to him before she died, instead of being divided between her ch'ldren. It is alleged that after Ward's wife died he became the victim of a designing woman, mortgaged the property to get money and there was danger of his squandering all the funds which belonged to her children unless the court inter, vened. . Thomas Ward and his brother, Steve Ward, were formerly partners and conducted a prosperous pawnbroker business. After Thomas Ward's wife died and the cause of the suit now pending against him became apparent, they failed to agree and dissolved partnership. Steve bought his brother's interest and Thomas started a place of his own. In the motion to dismiss the suit filed by Thomas Ward, he says the suit to set aside the deed was Instituted without the knowledge or consent of his daughter, who Is nine year3 old. that It was brought to embarrass him and cause an estrangement between him and his children,, and that his mother and brother are his avowed enemies. Jennie Ward and the other three children also filed affidavits that the suit was without their knowledge, and that their father has provided for them. The point of law involved is whether or not -a suit can be brought 'as next ft lend without the knowledge or consent of the plaintiff in reality. Telephone Case Decided. An interesting decision was handed down yesterday by the Appellate Court through JTldge Robinson. It was in the case of the Rushvllle Co-operative Telephone Company against Arthur B. Irwin. Irwin's telephone was disconnected because he had not paid rent for it on demand. He held a claim against the company which he had acquired by purchase, and on which he offered to credir his debt for telephone service. This offer was declined. He demanded that his telephone be reconnected, but was refused and brought suit against the company for $100 under the statute Imposing a line of $100 on a telephone company In this State that refuses to give service to any person In Its territory on equal terms with its other subscribers. Later he made nine other demands for telephone service and being met with a refusal In each instance brought suit for $100. which was consolidated with the former case. Irwin obtained judgment for $1,000. The case was reversed on the ground that a telephone company is not required to . adjust claims against it when collecting rent for telephone service. From the decision it appears that Irwin's Judgment for $1,000 would have been valid if he had not refused to pay his rent. Woman Fainted In Courtroom. Edward McGee, Walter Blasengym and Gfeorge Jones were tried by Judge Alford In the Criminal Court yesterday on a charge of burglary and grand larceny. They were charged with breaking into the Big Four shops and stealing brass. Blasengym and Jones entered pleas of guilty to petit larceny and Blasengym was sentenced to serve sixty days In the county Jail, while Jones was released on suspended sentence. McGee was already tinder suspended sentence, which was set aside ond he was sentenced to from two to fourteen years In the Indiana Reformatory. Shortly after the sentence was pronounced his mother fainted in the couttroom. Sheridan Brick Works Receiver. Charles A.
