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 amounts.

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.

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.

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.— An Extended Popularity.
