The stock market to day was left almost en
tirely to room traders and professionals, who,
being bearish in their views, gave the market a
weak tone, which lasted until near the close.
As usual during the week fluctuations were con
fined to small fractions only, about two orthree
of the active stocks ranging over as much as 1
per cent. New Jersey Central was the marked
exception, developing special weakness and de
clined over 1 \>ev cent. The bank statement was
a disappointment to the bears, and after its
issue there was an attempt to cover, which re
suited in apa rtiai recovery. The opening was
weak at declines extending to % per cent., and
further losses were sustained ranging up to %
per cent, in the general list, while New Jersey
Central dropped 1 % per cent. The market then
became very dull and little progress was made
in either direction until after the issue of the
hank statement, when prices improved some
what and the close was dull but steady to firm
at insignificant changes from opening figures.
The day’s transactions amounted to 139,000
shares, 'lmost everything is lower to-night
and Richmond and West Point preferred lost
1%, New Jersey Central and Hocking Coal 1%
per cent, each, and the remainder fractional

Green & Cos. 'a report on cotton certificates
says; ’There lias not been a very heavy move
ment, but considerable irregularity and the
final result favoring bears. At tne outset buy
ing orders were rather free from outside sources,
and, assisted by some covering, took au upward
turn of 6<gß points. At this, however, the line
of stop orders was reached, which brought out
more liberal offerings, and port receipts running
in excess of estimates the feeling became tame,
leading to a reaction t hat closed the market 3@4
points under last evening, but steady. The gov
ernment statistician renewed his belief in the
original bureau estimates of 630,000 bales."

Chicago, Nov. 26.—At the outset there was a
fairly firm but by no means strong tone to the
speculative market on 'Change to-day. The
conditions prevailing on the outside were far
from inspiring buoyancy of spirit on the part of
traders, and as a crowd they were affected far
more by the dismal and depressing state of the
weather than by what little gossip they could
get hold of affecting prices. Wheat started out
exactly where it stopped, 82%e for May, and
for a quarter of an hour only fluctuated %c,
and that was downward. Corn was about
steady, May opening at 50%e, selling at 50%@
50%c, and theu back to 50%c. January pork
started out at sl4 27%, and sold at sl4 30.
During the first hour pork fell off 10c, January
being quoted at sl4 20. Grains firm and slightly
tinder local inquiry, wheat recovering to 82%c
and corn to 50%e. Pork fell off 10c up to noon, a
sympathetic decline taking place in all other
articles of bog product. All the country talk
on corn was bullish, but this did not prevent
some heavy selling in a local way. At no time
did May get over %e higher than it opened, and
50%c brought out some heavy offerings. One
operator sold about 300,000 bushels, and with
the following he induced, worked the market
down to 50%@50%c. -After this it recovered to
50%c, and at noon was steady at this price.
Shortly before 10 o’clock there was a disposi
tion to sell corn, which broke prices quite
sharply to 50%c. It came entirely from local
operators. May closed at 50%@50%c. Wheat
was also hammered to 82%c, closing at 82%c.
January pork dosed at sl4 02%.
Cash quotations were as follows: Flour
dull but steady. Wheat, No. 2 spring 75%®
75%c; No. 8 red 75%0. Corn, No. 2, 46@46%c.

OUR FORESTS.
They Cover 500,000,000 Acres of the
United States Area.
From the American Agriculturalist.
The forest lands of the United States, ex
cluding Alaska, embrace 500,000,000 acres,
or 28 per cent, of the entire area. The
farmers own about 38 percent, of the forest
area, or some 185,000,000 acres. The rest is
owned by railroad corporations, mine own
el's, charcoal burners, tanneries, lumber
men and speculators. The farmers nre the
most desirable class of owners. They know
the value of their woods and devote rime
and thought to them preservation. Tiny
wrought sad havoc with the forests in ear
lier days, when the clearings were
made, and when the trees had no
positive value and had no market.
Now they cherish their wood lands
and add yearly millions of trees for shelter
and beautification, and for subsequent profit
to those who will come after them. The
farmers’ area of forest is increasing in all
the Western States, and groves are as plen
tiful as in the days of the Druids in
England, or of the classic deities of Greece
and Italy, and are put to much better pur
pose. One thing is to be noted, that trees
will flourish on land which will not return
remunerative crops. The conifers will thrive
under apparently most inhospitable con
ditions. Forest trees return to the soil the
nutriment they take from it, thus
maintaining its productive power and
encouraging their own growth. The
routes of transportation now render
access to market easy, by land or water,
and those facilities, with the extension of
railroads, grow better every year. The
railroads need many hundreds of ties for
each mile (60,000,000 a year in all, at an
average of two ties to a tree), and these ties
must tie renewed every seven or ten years.
One acre of land may contain and perfect
from four to six hundred trees. In a few
years these trees will produces rich harvest
of tics, and the surplus wood will give an
immense supply for fuel or fencing. The
farmer with a big wood yard may well ask,
“What shall the harvest bei” and then
lookout for a rich profit. As matters go.
the 38 per cent, owned by the farmers will
now soon be 75 per cent, of the tree area.—
