CHICAGO, IirL, March 20.—It was believed this morning that Wheat should have a recovery, the near ending of the week, with probably a fair short interest having been created on the down turn, being the arguments on whigh the theory was based. The unexpectea happened, however, and instead of an advance there was a decline in prices. The receipts in the Northwest were agaln heavy at 509 cars against 330 last Friday and 366 & year ago. Thaiand the fact that the cold wave did not prove & very scrions one, were the import- ant_considerations affecting the tone. Liverpool cables were quiet and steady. Recelpts at Chicago were ten cars and 139,588 bushels were taken from store. Export clearances were fair at 205,628 bushels. Closing Continental cables were all lower. About noon prices firmed and recovered the entire loss of the morning, butt- ing by “shorts” being the strengthening factor. May wheat opened from 6174c 10 621jgc, sold be- tween 6214 and 61%5c, closing at 621/4C bid, 14@ 1ic under vesterday. FEstimated recelpts for to- morrow 18 cars. CORN—Was susceptible to weakness to-day, and hy with wneat, therefore, caused prices to depreciate. The receipts, 429 cars, were large although not fully up Lo the estimate. There were no withdrawals from store. Liverpool cables were tand steady. EXport clearances were large 81,421 bushels. The rally in wheat later as- orn. but the full loss was not recovered. May corn_opened at 2915@2054c, sold between 2954¢ and 20%5c, closing at 2035@293gc bid, Lic under vesterday.

Din & Co. will say to-morrow in their weekl, trade: Failures for Lwo weeks of March cover | ities of $6,709,397, against $7,372,471 last year. Failures for the veek were 261 in the United States, against 278 last year, and 49 in Canads, agalnst 35 last year. Movement toward better things is still the ex- cept:on. here is beiter business in shoes and small industries, and there has been a squeezing of short sellers in cotton. but the general tendency of indvstries and prices is not encouraging. znd those who were most hopeful a month ago are still waiting, not so hopefully, for the expected re- covery. Obsiructions to recovery are not to be songht either in the investmeni or the money market, but in the industrial reaction, after the unnatural expansion of demand and prices last year. It1s a striking fact ihat the only great industry which is now rapidly gaining in business is the one in which prices have been generally cut down to last year's lowest figures. The boot and shoe makers had a reason for hesitation in the prices of leather, which still average 6 per cent higher than a year 2go, though hides are 13 per cent lower, having again declined the past week abou. 3 per cent. 1f the manufacturers get narrow profits of none they are at least doing a business which will keep most of the works in operation. The woolen-mills bave different conditlons, and with prices already reduced below last year's lowest average and wool 5.3 per cent higher than it was then they are not getting business to keep the works in operation. Sales of wool were the smallest in any week for a g ¥e 3 sharp decline fn the price of cotton goods is the comment of the mills on rising cotton. Goods now average lower than sirice May, 1895, having declined 4.2 per cent for the week. The fron industry shows but a siight average de- clipe in prices, as combinations still insist upon the highest prices of last year, and the demand is natorally curtailed. Quotations are deceptive be- cause lower prices are _constantly made 10 secure bus ness. Minor metals change little, but alumi- num quoted erroneousiy last week sells at 50 cent: ~peculation in co:ton hxs caught shori sellers tronbie, and just because they thought prices musy £0 lower, the shorts are forced to put them up. "The market in wheat has been weak though rather stagnant, but the welght of facts is felt, as Western receipts for three weeks of March have been 8.982, 481 bushels, agalust 5,624,929 last year. Atlantic exporcs, flour included, also snow & de- crease amounting 1o 4,084,064 bushels for three Weeks, against 5,097,090 last year. Ihe movement of corn continues very large and prices have declined 1c for ¢ A'troublesome feature of the Situation is the stringency in commercial loans, not because of scarcity of money, but because banks are disturbed by fallures of some import- ance.

COAL—Harrison’s circular says: “During_the week there have been elght arrivais from the Coast coilieries with 15.390 tons of Coal; from Cardift 2277 tons, Swansea 3093 tons ana Australia 5164 tons. Business in this line still remains aulet, es- pecialty in all grages which are principally used for ouse Durposes. The large consumers of steam and gas Coals are utilizing their usual quotn, as the weather cuts but a small _figure with their require- ments. There is little or no change of prices, as with the exception of a scarcity of some Australian grades there is a full stock of all others: in fact, the yards show a large accumulation of Welling: ton and Swansea Anthracte. The quantity of English and Australian to arrive within the next thirty days will be cousiderably less than the amount which will be consumed within that time, hence our stocks must become materially dimin- ished. The total amount of Swansea Coal listed to be loaded and already afloat is about 30,000 tons, being the total which will arrive here in the next six months: whereas fully 50% more will be required. The amount listed from Sydney and New- casile will foot up 85,000 tous, but some of these vessels will not be loaded for several months.” Wellington is quotable av 88 3 ton: New Welling- ton, $5 B ton: Southfield Wellington, 87 50 # ton; Seattle, $5@5 60; Bryant, 85 50: Coos Bay, £4 50; Wallsend, #6 50; Scotchi, $7 60: Brymbo, $7 50; Cumberiand, $13 50 in buik and $15 in sks; Pennsylvania Anthracite Egg, $13; Welsh An- thracite Egg, : Cannel, $8: Rock Springs, Castle Gate and Pleasant Valley, $7 60: Coke, $10 50 in bulk and $12 50 B ton in sacks.

One day last week Mr. Reed was saunter- ing along a fashionable uptown street dur- ing calling hours while ladies were alight- ing in_droves from their carriages. Two colored brothers, decidedly the worse look- ing for wear, and belonging to the faction which, by casting from ten to twenty-fi votes apiece, recently secured the election of a Reed delegate from this district to the National Republican Convention, were hanging around watching the scene. As Mr. Reed was passing they tugged at the battered remnants of hats surmounting their pates -and said: “How do, Mr. Speaker.’” Instantly the hand of the Speaker was elevated, his hat was removed clean from his head, bis_body was bent forward in a bow deep and profound, and the habitual cynical smile which plays around his lips melted into one of extreme cordiality as he replied: “Good morning, gentlemen.” e An estate that was worth $20,000 when it got into the law courts twenty-five years ago was settled last week in Los Angeles, Cal. The estate was left by Encarnacion Buelna, in 1870. There was nobody to claim the 42 cents that remained when the Public Administrator offered it in the Superior Court last week, and the - Judge made an order directing that it be paid into the county treasury. — e — THE CALL CALENDAR.
