all of tbs Important advances. Susquehanna
and western stocks were moat conspicuouaand
notwithstanding denials of a deal in the prop
erty. buying goes on with confidence, ap
parently born of some poeitive knowledge. The
other prominent slocks were Wheeling and

among the more active stocks Lackawanna and
New Jersey Central. Wneeling and Lake Erie
has been very strong of late. reason assigned
being the fact that Sidney Dillon had become a
director of the company, but to-day a more in
fluential reason was given, in effect that the
April dividend on preferred stock would be at
the rate of 5 per cent, per annum, an increase
of l per cent. Other low-priced securities
which have broom - prominent of late include
Oregon Improvement. Richmond and West
Point, and Missouri. Kansas and Texas. Taere
was no stock pressing for sale to-day, though
there was some selling by London and a little
hammering by the bears wherever they thought
there was a vulnerable spot, but these efforts
resulted in nothing, and tne improvement in
prices wont forward steadily until-t e close.
Pacific Mail was again advanced upon favor
able rumors in regard to the shipping bill, and
at times St. Paul, Union Pacific, Rock Island,
and Atchison led the movement among tne
usually active list. The strength in the last
named was most remarkable, in view of the
miserable showing of the net earnings for Do
cemb r whion was reported to-day. The effect
of tnese, however, had in all probability been
discounted during last week. There is. however,
a rumor current of a bull combination which
has been formed to operate this week, and this,
in addition to the daily diminishing fear of ad
verse financial legislation, renders the general
sentiment more bullish from day to day,
especially as the money market remains in a
state of assured ease. North American became
the feature late in the day, and scored a ma
terial gain in addition to Sugar stocks and
Chesapeake and Ohio first preferred. Move
ments in the rest of the list, however, were
confined to small limits, and the market, while
closing dull and firm to strong, was only slightly
changed from aturday’s figures. The sales of
stocks were 197.000 shares listed and 18.000
shares of unlisted.

The Suns cottou review says: “Futures
opened steady and further improved, presently
declined, closing easy at 1 point decline from
Saturday's closing prices. Liverpool took our
market quite by surprise this morning in re
porting an advance of l-64d or 2-64d, and a
more active spot market. We responded to it
In a moderate way, and for a time the deal
showed much strength, notwithstanding
gointers as to large port receipts for the day.
ut after the last call the market weakened.
Orders to sell were received from the south
(Washington!, and it was speedily rumored that
the report will come to-morrow from the Ds
partment of Agriculture making on estimate
that the quantity of cotton remaining on the
plantations is much greater than one year ago.
Under this influence the early advance was
lost. Large interior receipts, especially Mem
phis, contributed to the depression. All de:
pends upon the markets for spot cotton, and
how they will be maintained, and reports from
the south are now scanned with unusual close-
ness. Spot cotton was dull. ”

Chicaoo. Feb. 9.—lt was a day of surprises in
the wheat pit. May is %c higher than the close
of Saturday. The marset opened fairly steady,
followed in a few minutes by decided weakness.
The chief disturbing factor to holders near the
opening was the heavy receipts at primary mar
kets. Cautious local speculator- wore indis
posed tosell short after a week's decline, ag
gregating 5c per bustled, and easily persuaded
themselves, when prices began to recover, that
the least dangerous operation was to buy fora
turn, and price advanced to 97%®'.)sc for May,
followed by a rapid decline, commencing after
the visible supply was posted, and 96%c was
reached, with every appearance of a further
break, when it was whispered around that L v
erpool stocks had decreased 600.000 bushels In
a week, and the crowd, having soil itself short,
again became alarmed, and in their efforts to
clear themselves the price shot to 97%c in five
minutes, rhe opening strength of wheat made
first trades in corn close to the last quotations
of Saturday. The market soon became weak,
and when receipts for to-morrow were esti
mated at 478 cars the market lost all rallying
power and was upheld only by covering pur
chases by thosepreviousiy short hs prices grad
ually shrank. The lowest price on the decline
was 52%0, and at the close sellers were offering
at 62% or 52%c lower than on Satnrday. Oats
attracted comparatively little attent.on, the
market being rather dull, with moderate trading
in all active futures. The provision trade was
scarcely prepared for receipts of 60.000 hogs,
which was the number early advices from the
stock yards announced. Later receipts were
even further increased 2.000. There was a rush
to sell at the opening, pork standing 15c under
Saturday’s closing figures, and lard and ribs at
a decline of 10c. These prices were too tempt
ing to be resisted by the shorts and conse
quently there was a rally and steadier feeling
after the first few minutes, and in the course of
the day a recovery, which left a loss to specula
tive holders- measuring it by the closing prices
of to day and Saturday, only 2%c on pork, 5c
on lard and 7%c on ribs. Estimates of receipts
of hogs for to-morrow are 45,000

A CONFIDENCE CAMEh
It may be a surprise to most of our citizens to be told
that there is a Confidence Game of the strongest kind
IN FULL OFEUATIOIsr
In our midst. But it is so. The editors of this paper have
been aware that for a long time this Confidence Game has
been in existence. There are many of our best citizens
who are
BOLD OPERATORS
At it every day. The community seems rather benefited by
it than otherwise, and the Confidence Game
MAY BE SEEN ANY BAY
By stepping into the large establishment of the GLOBE
SHOE STORE, IG9 Broughton Street, where the confidence
shown by the buying public in the goods and prices there
offered is remarkable
