Points and Tone. To-day. day. To-day.
The feature of the day's business, apart
from the small amount of trading, was the
selling by receiving' houses against pur-
chases In the country. The moderate re-
ceipts to-day and still smaller arrivals ex-
pected to-morrow were, presumably, the
cause of the buying, and freer receipts at
country points w 1 t'h an absence of demand
front the seaboard or other eastern points
undoubtedly influenced the selling. There
was a good trade around the opening and
for about nfteen minutes thereafter at
from 381,t'u381/ic; after that the trading al-
most ceased until within a few minutes of
the close, with a downward tendency to
prices with no apparent rallying power to
any extent. The market rallied a little in
the last fifteen minutes of the session and
stopped with May but tic from the bottom.
Oats participated in the general dullness
and followed corn In Its fluctuations. Buy-
ers were few and scl'ers about equally
scarce.
Provisions were irregular but in the main
weak. The receipts • of hogs numbering 35.-
000 head instead of 29,000, as had been esti-
mated, with 30,000 looked for 'to-morrow,
was the chief source of the generally weak-
er feeling. There was a lively rally after
an early break, but as It was entirely due
to the covering of a considerable line of
short pork by Steever, supposed to be for
the account of the C'udahy packing com-
pany, and of ribs, about a million pounds,
by the Chicago packing company, when
those parties withdrew the market renewed
its early weakness. A fair demand devel-
oped at the decline and the close was firm.
Compared with last night May pork is 5c

unchanged. Estimated receipts: Wheat, 40
cars; corn, 1G0 cam; oats, 127 cars; hogs,

MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH
PRODUCE.
Chicago, 111., March 14.—Wheat had that
tired feeling to-day and closed %c lower
than yesterday after a range of but %c.
Cables were discouraging, the weather fine,
and demand light while firmer northwestern
markets prevented a marked decline. The
session was featureless and May closed at
the bottom. May corn and oats are each
%c lower. Provisions were fairly active and
were alternately weak and firm, several
times ending with a slight gain in prices.
Wheat opened dull with very little dispo-
sition on the part of local speculators to
enter into fresh transactions, a feeling
which, in the absence of news, continued
throughout the day. Orders from outside
were few and far between and such as were
received were for such small amounts gen-
erally as to have ltttle effect upon the
Srioes. For two hours the fluctuations in
lay wheat were between the range of 58%c
and 58%c, with the bulk of the limited trade
midway between those slightly divided ex-
tremes. Liverpool early cablegrams report-
ed. that market at former prices. North-
western markets were again firmer than
those elsewhere. The price sank in the
latter half of the session to 58%c and could
not be lifted again for more than a few
minutes at a time. The fine weather con-
tinued to be a bear factor and after iaiily
advancing several times a fraction from the
bottom May closed wearily at 58%c.
Corn was extremely dull and rather weak.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
New York, March 14.—Except during the
hour between 12 and 1 o'clock to-day, the
share speculation was fairly active and
the business was well distributed through-
out the list. In the early dealings the
market was strong in tone, with good buy-
ing, in which London participated as a
purchaser of Atchison, St. Paul and Louis-
ville and Nashville, and to a small ex-
tent In Missouri Pacific. As the day ad-
vanced the buying movement became less
pronounced, and unfavorable influences af-
fected special stocks, and not only de-
pressed these particular shares, but commu-
nicated weakness to the general market,
and at the close the active list, with but
few exceptions, showed a decline 011 the
final figures of yesterday. The almost cer-
tainty of gold shipments being made 011
Saturday and the unanimity of the opin-
ion that the enactment of the seigniorage
bill would increase the flow of gold to Eu-
rope, were disturbing elements of the spec-
ulation, and encouraged the shorts to hope
for a lower range of values. Western Un-
ion was sold down in opening deals on
rumors of an unfavorable quarterly state-
ment, which confirmed the report put in
circulation, showing as It did an estimated
deficit of over $378,000, against a surplus
ot over $156,000 for the same quarter of
1893. Atchison was more prominent in
the trading than for some time, being
bought for Boston as well as for foreign
account, and selling up % per cent in the
morning hours.
In sympathy with the rest of the mar-
ket the stock reacted % per cent in the
afternoon, rallying %. It is said that ne-
gotiations relative to the collateral trust
reorganization plan are under favorable
consideration by prominent houses here
and in London. Missouri Pacific felt the
influence of the favorable annual report
published yesterday, which Induced pur-
chase of the shares, causing an advance of
1%_ per cent in the early trading.
The railway and miscellaneous bond mar-
ket was very fair all day.

The men -who are writing speeches for the
politicians should take warning of the fate
■whiWh has overtaken James Fairfax Mc-
Laughlin of New York. Mr. McLaughlin
was a friend of the late John Kelly and iu
the course of their acquaintance an under-
standing was -arrived at between them
under which Mr. M«La<ughlm wrote many
learned addresses for the great Tammany
leader. He wrote political and rellgiious
addresses and lectures, besides articles for
the newspapers, dn which what purported
to he Mr. Kelly's ideas were given in gram-
matical English. During the lifetime of Mr.
Kelly. Mr. McLaughlin did not receive pay
for his services, but when his employer diet
av
1
he put In a. bill and attempted to collect tha
,'imount of it from Mrs. Kelly. The latter
did not propose to pay it, and Mr. McLaugh-
lin took it into court. It was sent to a ref-
eree by the iudge and the referee has just
made his report. He -has found that Mr.
Kelly gave all his lectures for charity and
diki not profit financially by the services
of the man who furnished him wi'th Ideas
and -words In which to clothe them. He
concludes, therefore, that Mr. McLaughlin
is not entitled to any money. It would
have been -much better for Mr. McLaughlin
if he 'had done a cash 'business.

A SMALL STILL VOICE.
Detroit Free Press.
They say that the mountaineers of Ken-
tucky, Tennessee -and adjoining states have
no sense of humor, and possibly they have
not. Be that as It may, as I rode by a mis-
erably poor hillside farm one day on the
headwaters of the Big Sandy, I saw the
farmer sitting on the fence, chewing a bite
of long green very complacently.
"Good morning, ( I. said; how far is it
•to Fanshaw's mill?"
" 'Bout three miles In the way you've got
to go," he replied in a whisper.
