The portrait was formally presented by Clement C. Chase in the name of the society with a brief sketch of Washington and of the portrait of which this was a faithful copy.

The five days' re- ceipts foot up 7450 cattle, 29,260 hogs and 5,519 sheep, as against 6,633 cattle, 31,28 hogs and 1428 sheep for the same period last week, From this it will be noted that there has been a small gain in the receipts of cattle, but a loss in hog receipts. The receipts of sheep have been unusually large this week. There were forty fresh loads of cattle in the yards today, a very light run, but as a considerable proportion was made up of beef steers the offerings in that class of cattle were fairly liberal. There was a fair demand, and the market was a little stronger on handy little cattle. The bulk of the offerings changed hands early. There were some very good cattle in the yards today, as high as $ being reached by one bunch. This is the highest price paid on this market since the holidays. Over on half of the beeves on the market brought # or better. Pracucally everything was sold before the close. Cows and mixed butchers' stock were in moderate supply, there being fifteen to elghteen loads, all told. The cow stuff as a rule was not cof very good quality, there being a good many cattle on the common- ish order. Desirable cattle were strong and met with very ready sale. The common- ish stuff_did not move off quite 8o frecly and in some cases holders were calling the trade slow. Veal continue in £00d demand at firm prices. Stockers and feeders were fn very light supply. There was some demand from out. side buyers and the feeling was that good feeders would have sold stronger. Repre- sentative sale No. Av. Pr.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2—R. G. Dun & Co.'s weckly review, which fssues tomorrow, will say: The surprising success of the fiew loan and the great confidence it has given to Investors on both sides of the water and to business men here eucourages many to hope that it may be the beginning of a real recovery. In twenty-two minutes the subscriptions are supposed to have been at least five times the amount of the bonds offered, and in two hours at Lon- don they were twenty times the amount there offered. Considering the power which the contral of these bonds gives to regulute forelgn exchanges and to prevent exports of gold, the transactions ve indeed greatly changed the financial situation, in ¥pite ‘of the fact that the government revenues are still deficient and that domes tic trade shows scarcely any guin as yet. The industries are not enlarging produc- tion, nor have the prices of farm products improved, but a very Important source of apprehension and hindrance has, for the time at least, been removed. Wheat fell 'to 5 cents Saturday last and has recovered to cents, oniy 1y cent be- low the price a week ago, while corn, cot- ton and pork are unchanged and hogs and lard are a shade lower. Western receipts of wheat are nearly as large as last year, though for three weeks about 40 per cent smaller, owing to the storms, The exports are a little larger than a year azo, and yet are not large. Cotton has refused to advance, though there has been much talk about curtailment of acreage this ear and receipts have sharply de sed, The decrease Was apparently owing to the un- precedented weather at the south, and the market is more influenced by the certain oversupply for the next six months than by the possible shrinkage in yield next fall. As the market for goods 15 dull here and abroad the fact that visihle stocks of American are about 300,000 bales larger than in 1892 at the same Jate justifies the expectation that the surplus carried over will be large. Dealings in iron and its products are moderate in volume, with some discourage ment in most branches, though structural work at Pittsburg is very heavy and the demand for wire nails and barbed wire has never be-n surpassed. Bul nothing is doing in rails, plates are quict and bar is as slow as ever, though in rather better demand for car' works. Sales of pig have been moderately large, with one transaction at Pitts of 10,000 tons December at $10, but fx e8 do not improve. Tin is weaker at 133 cents fcr February. The Calumet & Hecla has reduced its price for copper to $9.95 the January output being 11,691 tons and the forelgn 7,144, Lead has declined to 3.1 cents, while tin plates are lower, withslarge arrivals, Tex- tile products show few chang but those downward. Cottons are meeting an indif- ferent demand, and New York mills 4-4 bleached has been reduced to 9% cents and Lonsdale 4-4 bleached to 5% cents, and in_ cheaper goods and brown sheetings prices are irregular. A better demand ap- pears for the finer prints, but fancy cali- coes are quict and there is only the aver- age reorder business for dress goods. In light woolens the reorders ntinue later than usual, and the preliminary purchas of medium and low heavy grades are larger than a year ago, some mills hav- ing quit business until April, while in the higher grades there is a more promising demand. The términation of a strike at Philadel- phia set more carpet mills to work, and the demand is ir, while in dre: goods little 1s doing. Sales of wool at the chief markets in three weeks of February were 15,722,050 pounds, against 18,010,80) pounds two vears ago. The failures' for this week have been 302 in the United States, against 288 last year, and in Canada 36, against 51 last year. London Stock Quotations, LONDON, Feb, 22.—4 p. m. closing: Ohn.
