At New York, yesterday, money on call was firm at 23 per cent.; last loan, 24 per cent. Prime mercantile paper, ZM'QiM per cent. Sterling exchange was firm with actual business In bankers' bills at ILSTJ-ST for demand and $4.S44.84li for sixty days; posted rates, J1.S54.SS; commercial bills, J4.S3UT 4-84. Silver certificates were GlYzfiGZc; bar silver, 61 Vic; Mexican dollars, 43c. Dar silver clod at 2$d an ounce In London. The annual report of the Pennsylvania Ilallroad, published yesterday morning, proved to be the mainspring of the market. That document showed such a mass of convincing evidence of the high prosperity of tho railroad business that it attracted large and substantial buying, not only In that stock, but in many other high grade railroad stocks. The Pennsylvania system is always accepted as a representative system, owing to the great diversity of its traffic and the extent of territory embraced in its ramifications. Therefore, the showing made of the growth of traffic lr. both freight and passenger departments, the enormous increase of earnings and tho great work accomplished in improvement and betterment, with promise of increased efficiency as an instrument of transportation, had a great lntluence on the values of railroad stocks. The first Influence was felt in the trunk line group, especially those lines in which Pennsylvania has secured an influential interest. It spread to all the principal railroads operating in the trunk line territory. Including the coalers, rnd later In the day to the stocks of railloads in the Western territory. The princlpal stocks affected including the leaders in the grangers and Pacific groups show gains of 1 to 3A points. Pennsylvania, itpelf was up 2V... Delaware & Hudson 3U. Baltimore & Ohio preferred 3Vi. Great Northern preferred 31, liurllngton 3 and Norfoik & Western preferred -v. It was very noticeable that the market as a whole did not respond notably to the movement In special stocks. There were instances of strength scattered all through the list besides those already mentioned, especially among the high-priced industrials, but the movement was quite free from excitement, and the day was singularly free from stories of new combinations or speculative sensations. In the railroad list the buying was based distinctly on the large earnings. There was an Important speculation in Sugar, as is invariably the cast? on a dividend day. The stock got above Monday night for a brief time alter the declaration ot the regular quarterly dividend, but fell ZVi In the late dealings closing with a net loss of 1. Monday's movement In Amalgamated Copper continued in force to-day, carrying that stock up an extreme 41. closing practically at the top. The gas stocks showed continued strength, Jaclede Gas leading the day's movement with an advance of ii and a net 'gain of 5. tlneral Electric rose 4 points. Pacific Mall lost as much but recovered 2 points. The bituminous coal carriers showed signs of strength. The stcl stocks were decidedly neglected, the common stocks as a. rule being rather heavy while there was some strength among the preferred Issues. United States steel was rather dull and about steady in the outslue market. The bond market showed some Increasing activity and strength, but continued Irregular. Standard Jtope Cs broke S points.

Indiana iolis 84,506 LOCAL GRAIN AM) PRODUCE. Few New Features on the Local 3Iarkets Prices Steady ns n Itulc. Local markets present practically no new features. Eggs are weak at recent declines and poultry Is unchanged, with an excellent demand for fat. healthy fowls. Dried fruits are weaker on account of large holdings for so late In the season. Canned goods are steady. Local dealers have not as yet advanced prices on coffees, although the tendency is in that direction. Green stuff Is feeling the effects of the frosts in the South last week, which has curtailed shipments. Oranges, lemons and bananas are very firm at quotations. If arrivals of oranges thls wie reach expectations a decline In prices probably will follow. Trad with the dry goods houses is Improving. Provisions rule steady, notwithstanding the fact that the good demand seems :o warrant higher prices. On Commission row potatoes are slow movers, while apples are strong and steady. OM onions are firmer and navy beans weak. The local grain market Is slow on light receipt. That they should be so light, with good country roads and the prevailing high prices for cerals. is surprising.

WAITING TO BE BURIED

PRODUCTS OX Tili: HOARD OF TRADE ALMOST LIFELESS. Wheat Gains a (Jaarter of a Cent and Corn Loses Same Oats Unchanged, Provisions tt Shade Down. CHICAGO, March 5. Leading speculative markets on the Board of Trade were dull to a record-breaking degree to-day. Save for a few minutes at the opening and an instant at the close the lethargy was unbroken. Wheat closed (ic higher, corn lower, oats unchanged and provisions a shade depressed. Had the wheat market more than the barest spark of life left in it, it would have showed a more decisive response to the various pieces of intelligence ordinarily influential in determining prices. May opened unchanged at 3U'S75?bC, and on a bit of outside buying advanced to ZMc. A few thousand bushels offered sent tho market back to 75Uc where it steadied. and for hours together brokers had scarce ly enough business to keep them awake. Toward the end of the session a commission house wanted to till an order, and the price was bid up to 75c when the gong sounded. The trade was actually made at 7."kc, high price for the clay, after the close, but the oflicial close remained at räc. iUc over yesterday. The lightness ot offerings, and It was tills that sustained the market, was due to the cold wave over unprotected fields, and to light Northwest receipts. Exporters reported 12 loads tak en, seaboard clearances in v.neat anu flour were CQual to 42J,UoU bu, while primary receipts vere u,w0 bu, compared with 4C1.000 bu last year. Minneapolis and Du ll th reported 213 cars, against 210 last week and 5C7 a year ago. Local receipts were 1C7 cars, 7 of contract grade. Corn was less dull than wheat, but the rrarket at that was quiet enough. There was consldrtable selling of long corn ut the start on the qold weather, liberal receipts, 313 cars, and the Increased stocks. The pressure was soon removed and the market ruled steady and profoundly dull to the close. May sold between 404u'ic and 40Tslt41c, and closed Uc lower at 40vsC Oat? were dull and neglected, not only in cptions, but for the cash product. May sold between 25?sc and 254c, and closed unchanged at 2öc. Itecelpts were 377 car. Provisions opened a shade higher, but this seemed scarcely a fitting response to the light hog receipts and advanced prices In the hog market. This easiness was due to moderate sales of lard. May pork closed a shade lower at 314.1214.15; May lard unchanged at 37.43 and May ribs a shade down at $7.05. Estimated receipts to-morrow: Wheat, 60 cars; corn, 220 cars; oats, 1G0 cars; hogs, 24,000 head. Leading futures ranged as follows: Articles. OienWheat . Ing. Mch ... 73 April .. 744 May ... 75V4-75.

There was not a liberal supply of cattle, and In harmony with other places the market opened with rather a good Inquiry fcr the choice gradts, especially in the steer line, and active comje-tl-tlon exhausted the supply early at strong prices, there being posrtbly some advance In certain instances. Sales included cattle weighing upwards of 1,600 lbs at $5.50, which Is the highest price paid in this market since Jan. 3. Other sales included 1.550-lb steers at $5.25. and l,052-lb kinds at $1.25. The demand for heifers was hardly as liberal as at the close of last week, and prices were not entirely satisfactory to some salesmen, but potr'sibly no lower. Good cows were In demand at ctrong prices. Heifers sold as high as $1.40 and cows as high a $1.25. The. top price for bulls was $i and for calves $6.50.

Th receipts of hogH continue of small volume and the quality to-day was generally as good as the average recently, and a few decks of strictly prime hogs wer represented. The market opened with a very good inquiry from local packers, but shipping orders were not urgent and principally for light hogs. Competition at the start a. strong enough to encourage salesmen in asking higher prices, and the first sales indicated an advance of 5c over yesterday's average. After the first round there was a little easier tendency, but finally packers cleared up the supply at about opening prices. Aside from one sale of fancy heavy hogs at $j.65, the top was $5.624. and the bulk of the supply sold at $,".57 4' 5.60. There were' several sales at $5.55, and that was1 prac tically tho low point.

UNION STOCKYARDS, INDIANAPOLIS, March 5. The receipts of horses for the regular sale of W'artnan, Black, Chamberlain & Co. Tuesday were comparatively liberal, about 2W head, against 250 the same time last week and an equal number the corresionding time a year ago. The offerings included some of all kinds, there being a few good harness and heavy horses. bu,t medium-sized drivers and workers of fair to good quality predominated. There was not a large attendance of bureis. and the auction sale did not begin until afternoon. Quite a number of ales were made at private terms, and prices realized were muert the same as equal kinds soli for last week. High acting coach horses that could show a good amount of sjeed sold as high as $225, and other sales were at $1230150. About two loads of cavalry horses sold at private sale, but buyers received Btop orders late yesterday, and a large number of horses bought in the country for that purpose had to be sold for other purposes. The afternoon auction sale was very disappointing to shippers who had stock on the market. Manv of the consignments had been benight with the exjtectatlon that last week's prices would pr?vail this week, but on account of the liberal supply and lessened competition buyers took advantage of the situation, and prices were gr nerally considered $10 to $25 per h-ad lower, tho greatest change, of course, being on the class of horses suitable for cavalry use. Quite a number were rejorted around $55Ti'75 ier head that would have sold at $700 S5 per head last week. Heavy horses that have been commanding around $20) ier head were slow of sab belrw $175. and the good Eastern and farm chunks shov ed about the same change as other grades. Among the well-known shippers on the market were B. J. Smiley, with forty-four head Irom southern Indiana; George Warman, Arcadia, one load; J. M. Fleming. Anderson, one bad; Frank Warman, one load from southern Illinois; Harry Witwer, Bluff ton. one load; Alonzo Young, Crawfordsvllle, one load; Clarence Vestal, Greencastle. one load; Perry I?wls, Sullivan, one load, and there were a number of other shippers with less than a load.
