GLASS TAKES A DROP IN PRICE

HARDWARE MEN REPORT A PALL OF FROM 15 TO 25 PERCENT. MANY ARE PLALIfIG ORDERS For the Article While it is DownReason Given That the Demand is Small. 'Hardware men report a big drop in the price of glass within the past month, and all grades are selling for from 15 to 25 percent cheaper than they did last fall. The price of glass has been going down steadily for several weeks, and it is thought that is has now reached its lowest point. Many contractors and greenhouse owners and others who have use for a great deal of glass are now placing their orderh in order 1o take advantage of the low prices. The drop does not apply particularly to plate glass, but to "blown" :Iass, of single and double strength, like that used in ordinary windows. The winter demand has been small, and that has caused the drop in price. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. Edward Ramler and wife to Anna E. Thomas, lots 4 and 5 in Hittles Add $14S0 William McMahon to Cora B.

CHICAGO MARKETS

Damage Reports Kept Wheat Market Firm; Some Fields Unprotected by Snow Shipping Demand for Corn. VISIBLE GRAIN SUPPLY. New York, February 13. The weekly report of the secretary of the New York Produce Exchange on the visible supply of grain shows: Wheat, today 47,783.000 bushels, year ago 3.,0.SS,000 bushels, increase 000 bushels; Corn, today L3..'527.0 00 bushels, year ago 10,.")0-1.000 bushels, increase 423,00) bushels; oats, today 20.327,000 bushels, year ago 17,"803,000 bushels, increase 8,404,000 bushels. Compared with last week: "Wheat, decrease, 7.")4,000 bushels; corn, increase 477,000 bushels; oats, decrease 328,000 bushels. Chicago, February 14. A fair demand by commission houses created a steady wheat market here, despite a moderate decline in prices at Liverpool. Reports from the winter wheat belt of the United States were that in many localities where the temperature was severe the ground was almost bare of snow. Fears of damage to the unprotected crop was the chief reason for buying. May opened a shade lower and sold up to SSc. Corn Receipts Smaller. The corn market was firm on an increased shipping demand and receipts which were somewhat below the estimated amount. May opened unchanged to a shade higher, and sold up to 43S8e. . There was little business in oats, and the market was dull and steady. Active buying by shorts caused a strong provision market. Chicago Grain and Provisions. (Furnished by O. G. Murray.) open close.

Six Twenty High Price For Hogs; f "Rnllr nf Snrmlir finlrl fnr CC 1 n wf irJ wvv. vi yuau to $6.15 Fair Average Cattle. Indianapolis, February 14. Receipts, 5,000 hogs, 1,500 cattle and 100 sheep against 9 ,542 hogs, 1,S42 cattle and 333 sheep a week ago, and 4.914 bogs, 1,311 cattle and 9i -sheep a year ago. Small receipts and a strong demand were factors that contributed to another active hug market at a good advane? in prices. Competition was stiong from outside sources, and trading Avas active at a general advance of 10c Li"'nl packers were slow but finally were free buyers and paid, the top price. The rania was from sffi.OoO? (5.20. and the bulk of the supplies sold at !r6.1. 00.15. The top was the highest since the beginning of last September, over 1 higher than the close of last November and .$1.05 higher than a year ago. Fair Cattle Receipts. Although there was not a liberal supply of cattle receipts were a fair average for this time in the week. All kinds were represented and there were more good heavy steers than heretofore this week. There was an active demand for female butcher cattle as well as for the good to choice light steers at "steady prices. The market for the heavier grades of cattle and especially those that were a little plainer in quality or fat, was quiet but steady. There was a steady local demand for feeding cattle, but little inquiry from the country. Bulls were steady, good calves steady, but others lower. Sheep Supply Small. Sheep and lamb supplies were too small to establish new prices for all kinds. Most of the offerings were lambs, and they sold promptly at steady prices compared with yesterday. A much larger supply could have been sold on the same basis. Most of the best lambs sold at $7.25, and culls to good kinds, $5.007.00. The best sheep sell as high as $5.00 and culls as low as $3,000. . Cattle.

SLUGGISH DEALING FEATURED STOCKS

i PRICE MOVEMENTS DULL IN EITHER DIRECTION. DECLINES PREDOMINATING. .. STOCKS THAT SUGGOfiBED To Pressure at Outset Were Reached by Buying Orders and Some Recoveries Resulted. New York, February 14. Aside from a few prominent features, the dealings at the opening of the stock market were small and the movement of prices sluggish in either direction, with declines, predominating. Realizing in Amalgamated Copper brought out 6,000 shares, which were sold at 116 to 11510, compared with 116 last night, and Anaconda ran off 6y on varying quotations. Buying orders were reached in the stocks that had succumbed to pressure at the outset, and there were pretty general recoveries. Confident "buying of the Hill stocks and Reading assisted materially in improving the general tone of the market. Anaconda rallied 7 points to above yesterday's closing and Amalgamated Copper 1. The more active features were sold to take profits on the recovery and the market yielded to about the lowest again. List Carried Down. The 'decline carried Union Pacific Southern Railway preferred and National Lead a point under last night. An active demand sprang up for Southern Railway, which carried it up a point and Louisville and Nashville gained 2. Northern Pacific extended its rise to 5y. The general list remained sluggish and dull. Aggressive operations on either side of the market, were confined to a few stocks with slight effect on the general list. A demand for Union Pacific on the dividend declaration and an upward spurt in New York Central carried them up a point each, but their gains were lost when the entire market yielded sharply on the large gold engagements to Argentina. Amalgamated Copper fell back 2y8. NEW YORK STOCKS. (Furnished by O. G. Murray.) open close. Amal. Copper 116 113 Am. C. & F. pfd 46 45 Am. Locomotive 7414 7414 Am. Smelt. & Rfg 164 164 Am.
