THE BOYCOTT ORDER.Michigan Central People In-

structed Not toDeal Withthe Soo.

Statement of What Are Al-leged to Be the Facts in

the Controversy.

Letter of the Presidents ofthe Boycotting*Lines Giv-

ing- Notice.

Surprising 1 Developments inElectric Train Service

Promised.

Chicago, Jan. 29.—Taking effect thebeginning of the coining week, theMichigan Central has instructed itsagents to issue no tickets or check nobaggage to points upon or b> wayof theMinneapolis, St. l'aul & Sault Ste.Marie railroad. The facts as stated offi-cially are that for a year or more past acontroversy has existed between theDuluth, South Shore it Atlantic andMinneapolis, St. Paul «& Sault Ste.Marie railways on the one side and theChicago lines of the Minneapolis &St. Paul on the other relative tothrough rates to Eastern points.Frequent meetings have been held bythe representatives of the lines in in-terest, at a number of which the Mich-igan Central and (J rands Rapids & In-diana railroads have been called in toaid in the effort to secure harmoniousaction. Allof those efforts, however,have proved unavailing. The Michigan

Central and the Grand Rapids & In-diana railroads have been drawn intothe strife by the two lirst-mentionedlines making through rates overthem to cut the rates viaChicago. This was objected toby the Michigan Central and the(hand Rapids & Indiana railroads,they claiming that through tariffs orrates should not be made over their re-spective lines without their consent andapproval. After some discussion ontiiis point the president of the Duluth,South Shore & Atlantic recognized theimportance of the principle held by theMichigan Central and the Grand RapidsitIndiana, and agreed to the positionthey assumed. To this, however, themanagement of the Minneapolis, St.Paul »fc Sault Ste. Marie refused to as-sent, eliciting the followingcommuni-cation from thfl presidents of the Michi-gan Central and Grand Kapids it Indi-ana railroads:

lleferrinK to our letter of Dec. 2o and ourconference this morning, Ihave to adviseyou that, no agreement having been reachedinregard to ihu i*si:e of joint tariffs readingover your line, this company willnot. afterJan. 30, lfflti, honor the tickets issued byyour company purporting to entitle partiesholding Use Eame to transportation over anyportion of the lines of this company; norwillit receive or transport baggage underchecks issued by your company; and thiscompany will not." alter such date, issuetickets purporting to be good over any por-tion of your road, uor cheek baggage overthe same.

WILL NOT MOVE.

St. Paul-Chicago Lines and theSoo Cut.

Tliero Is no disposition, at least forthe presont, on the part of the St. Paul-Chicago lines to meet the "cut" whichthe Soo road will inaugurate on the Istprox. There are two reasons for this:First, the St. Paul-Chicago lines havelroin experience learned that it is im-possible lobring the Soo road to time inv rate war. Whatever reduction theymight make is certain to be met by theSoo, no matter how ruinous may be thecut. This was illustrated in the springof IS9O, when a very bitter rate warraged between the St. Paul-Chicagolines and the Soo, the rates droppingto the very bedrock. In the end the St.Paul-Chicago lines found that itwas im-possible to bring the Soo to their wayof thinking, and &o a compromise wasmade, which practically gave the Sooall that was asked. Having this view,the St. Paul-Chicago lines are not at alllikely to meet the Soo "cut." Anotherreason is that just now the traffic issomewhat light,and receipts will notbe very much affected by the reducedrate.

ELECTRIC TRAINS.

The Wisconsin Central Likely toKniiThriii Soon.

Chicago, Jan. 29.— General ManagerAinslce, of the Wisconsin Central, saidtoday: "1am not able to give you in-formation of a definite character, but Ithink that we shall run trains on theWisconsin Central by electrical powerbefore the Columbian exposition is over.The discoveries of the uses towhich electricity can be put and itsadaptability to moving: trains are farahead of what is generally supposed.As to the Northern Pacific properties,Mr. Viilard has had personal charge ofsuch matters and he alone can give outthe results. 1 think they will find,however, that some one of the threegreat electrical companies— tho Edison,the Westinehouse and the ThomsonHouston— will make public some sur-priaing developments at an early day."

Upontheir advice he acted as many othernu-n in this city have done; lie decicleewithout hesitation to try the efficacy ofPaine's celery compound, having heardmuch of its wonderful results.

He was not disappointed. His ex-perience with this great remedy was sosatisfactory, and so gratifying to hisfamily and friends, that a few weeksago he sent the proprietors a strongtestimonial which speaks volumes andadds conclusive proof to the statementsof the physicians, that of all the reme-dies that can be had Taine's celerycompound stands far above all others inhonest and great results.

EVERYTHING DROPPEDNews of a Bearish Character

Affected ChicagoMarkets.

Only a Moderate Demand, ButFree Selling by Weary

Holders.

Lower Markets Abroad andWeak Cables Helped the

Decline.

New York Stock Market IsHolding Up Well Under

Hammering-.

Chicago, Jan. 29.— Wheat was lower andvery dull in the early trading this morning.The news was mostly ofa bearish character.Hrithsh cables were unchanged, but conti-nental markets were lower, followed by Brit-ish markets luter. The receipts in the North-west and here indicated h little freer move-ment. The estimate of the agricultural de-partment ofINorthDakota made the last sea-son's ivheat crop of that ttate amount to 64.---700,000 bu. or about 12.500,030 bu more thanthe government estimate. Pardridge addedhis mile by free selling duriug most of thesession. Allof thesa things gave the marketa heavy look around the opening, and there-was free selling by tired longs, with only amoderate demand. "^SchwartzDupea soldgenerously on their weak continental cables.; Private New York advices reported export-ers doing verylittle,and the acceptances oncable offers extremely light. Logan, Mil-niiue-Bodman nnd Kennett-llopkins werepood br.vers. .Aftera period of dullness andweakness the market began to show somenervous strength; itwas reported that theexport business at the seaboard was showingevidences of revival;that nearly 50J.0J0 buof wheat midHour were cleared" yesterday,and that thirty-nineboatloads had been taken(itNew York and out ports today. Thisstarted early sellers. to covering, und therewas a quick rally,but the advance broughtout free sellingagain, and another period ofweakness followed. Then the crowd grew

nervous and bought again, sending Driccs upto outside figures: but the advance did nothold,and there was another lapse and weak-ness which continued to the end of the ses-sion, and the market closed easy nearly atthe bottom figures.

The late cables were all lower and a dis-patch from New York said there was abso-lutelyno demand for freight room and thatseveral vessels had bought wheat to make upcargoes. It looked as if news was beingmanufactured for the purpose of see sawingthe market. May opened at DlVsc. againstOHacattbe close yesterday: held for sometime within a range of 9l@9lUc sold up to

91&&C, reacted to 01Vie, rallied to UlSfce, brokeagain duringthe last hour toDJsic aud closedeasy at 91%c.

Corn was again fairly active and the in-fluences which led to yesterday's advancewere still effective gat the opening thismorning. . The market opened firm and alittle higher than it closed yesterday. Atthe start \u25a0 there was some -disposition tosell, but the advance reported inNew York,the fact that out of the 243 cars inspectedinto store nota car graded contract and thenervous feeling in wheat soon turned themarket and there was 11 slight further ad-vance which held fora time, after which themarket weakened. New York was said tohave been a lib^tilbuyer ofcorn here today,the purchase on this account, it was thought,would aggregate over 1.000,000 bu.During the last hour ridge became the

controlling feature in the market and hissales, coupled with the weakness In wheat,caused a break and the market closed at bot-tom figures. May started _at 41%)C, against41Vtc us the last figure yesterday, weakenedto 41Vise, advanced to 41Agc, weakened toandclosed at 41c.

Oats sympathized with corn, and Mayclosed ai3o^c. a loss of %c. „

Hog products started higher, on the mod-erate receipts of live hogs and the advanceof lC@lse at the yards. But realizing saleswere free, and some or the leading packersoffered product freely and the market booneased off. There were several fluctuationswithin narrow limits thereafter, and theclose was at slightlylower prices than thoseat the end of the session yesterday.

. SPECULATION BULLISH.

Hesitation Disappears Witla tlioAVar Scare.

New York, Jan. 29. Bradstreet's weeklyWall street review says: The subsidence ofthe Chilian war scare, followed by tenders ofa pacific nature from that country, seems tohave putan end to the hesitation "which hadbeen created .in speculation and permittedthe reassertion of the bullish tendencieswhich, in spite of the unsettling manifesta-tions of the last three weeks, have neverthe-less been apparent in the action of the sharemarket. One of the most noteworthy evi-dences of this fact was the fairlylarge buy-ing for foreign account which followed then'jws that the Chilian government had madea satisfactory auswer to the demands of theUnited States. \u25a0.-

Atthe same time it was exceedingly plainthat duringthe depression stocks had to alarge extent passed into strong hands, andthat powerful financial and speculative in-

-1 terests continue to be convinced that the ul-timate tendency of prices is in an upwarddirection. Last week the deposits of theNew Yorkbanks for the first time on record

•almost touched 5500,000,000. while the ab-sence ofany large demand of either commer-cial or speculative character has forced mon-eyed corporations and large capitalists toturn their attention to the stock ana bondmarket in order to find employment for theirsurplus funds.

At present the bond market is bare of theclass ofsecurities which is attractive to suchpurchasers, aud there seems tobe reasonablefoundation for the current reports that insome instances the heavy buying ofa divi-dend-paying stock may be attributed to suchinterests. The plethoiaof money constitutes.Infact, a controlling factor in the situation.The clearing up of the short interests nat-urally facilitated the rapid advance of themarket which commenced Wednesday last,though at the same time the stronger partieswho had acquired stocks on the decline werenot slow to display their inclination andabilityto assist the market.

Inthis connection the action of the groupof stocks with which Mr.Gould's name isusually connected is both significant and in-teresting.

"Ailidea offurther friction in the

Western Trafficassociation has disappeared.Under these circumstances the rapid ad-vance of Manhattan and the strength ofother members of the same group is consid-ered specially significant.

Among the specialties Louisville, NewAlbany & Chicago were conspicuous, themovement being attributed to the fact thatarrangements have been coucluded by which

'

the road willfurnish the Chicago outlet forthe entire Richmond Terminal system, theconnection being furnished by the Louis-ville Southern road, which has lately passedInto the hands of interests allied both withthe Richmond Terminal and the Louisville,New Albany & Chicago. The noteworthyfeature of the •'industrials'! was the distill-ers, which was depressed by manipulation ofa professional kind.

DUX'S REVIEW.More Business, But Disappointing

Prices.New York,Jan. 20.—R. O. Dun & Co.sWeekly Review of Trade says: It is notice-

able that there is a considerable feeling ofdisappointment. More business, but at lowerprices, seems to be the rule. That the vol-ume of trade Is gradually increasing, even inbranches which have been dullest, thereseems to Be no doubt. But in an unusualnumber ofcases increased sales appear to bethe result ofsome yielding in prices, bo thntthe average decline in prices of all commod-ities during the past week has beeu morethan half of1per cent

There is more husiness done Iniron,butincrease in weekly output since the unpre-dented report of Dec. 1 has weakened theprice. Bar iron is dull at Philadelphia andweak at Chicago, and the market is demor-alized bylarge production. Copper is lowerat 10.8 cents, with moderate exports and agreat output. Tin is an eighth lower at 19.ticents, but lead is stronger ai 4.2 cents. Coalis unsettled.

Reports from other cities generally indi-cate a gradual increase in the volume oftrade. At Boston there is not much change,and trade is rather disappointing, but theteare more orders for boots and Ehoes.aud the Jobbing trade in dry goodsis good, with large Western ordersIron weaker, and many branches of the glassworks are closed by dull trade. Collectionsare improving. At Chicago trade ingeneralmerchandise is equal to last year's, and re-ceipts have iucreased in most products, butdoubled in wheat, flour and com; eollec-

lions are satisfactory; money plphty and'

prospects brixh'. At St. Louis ih:"reta.ltrade isstrong, and wholesale average andgrain receipts large. At Milwaukee tradep-o*i>ects are good, but there is very little

eculatiod.At St. Paul jobbing trade mil collections

are better, and at Minneapolis trade is goodfor the season and

'Collections satisfactory.

At Kansas City an increase in trade is noted,and at Denver -business is fair. AtMemphisand Nashville trade is quiet, and at New Or-leans cotton is lower, with heavy, re-ceipts;, sugar, tteadv and rice is quiet.At savannah trade is fairly good. In drygoods there seems to be rather less activity asto cotton goods, mid in knit goods somedullness; clothiers are conservative andwaitingforindications of the popular fancy,aud hence the men's wear woolen trade is

rplexing.There is abetter feeing in the woolmar-

kit,however, at New York, as at Boston, andthe continuing sales piove that nianfactur-.ing has by no means ceased. Cotton is aneighth lower. While both receipts and ex-ports fall somewhat behind those of last yearfor the same week, the indications still pointto a very large crop. Corn is half, a centhigher, with heavy receipts at the West, andpork products a little stronger. But wheat isa quarter and oats three-fourths of a centlower than a week ago. Wheat receipts havebeen quite large, wnile the exports tor thelast week or two have somewhat declined.Oilis nearly a cent lower and coffee a quarterstronger.

The money markets throughout the coun-try are unusually well supplied, but in partbecause the demand is moderate. Collec-tions are generally improving or decidedlygood. The course of ioreign trade makesthe absence of gold imports somewhat note-worthy; exports from New York for fourweeks of January have been $11,193,000 or42.9 per cent larger than for the same weekslast year, while in imports' there has been aslightdecrease, which would point to an ex-cess of exports over imports, amounting toabout g32.000.0Q0 for the month against $20,---000.000 last January. The business failuresoccurring throughout the country during thelast seven days number 297, as comparedwith totals of 328- forlast week. For the corresponding week of last year the figureswere 320.

New York.New York. Jan. 29.— The stock majket

again showed the effects of continued ham-mering by the bears and their allies; thetraders, but a firm temper was maintainedduringthe greater portion of the day.and not-withstanding the pressure of the rrofessiondlelement, prices yielded only slightly,andeven in the specialties, which weie attackedas particularly vulnerable, few. show lossesof moment. The foreigners were both buy-ers and sellers in ' the market, Louisville &Xashvilie being specially pressed for sale byforeign houses, and that stock is the onlyone of the usually active railroad shareswhich showed any material loss for the day.

The selling, however, had more of the ap-pearance of professional pressure for effectupon the rest of the market than of genuineliquidation oflong accounts, and the stronginfluence which it, had on the rest of thelist indicated the temper of holders in gen-eral. As usual oflate, a few stocks monop-olized the marked movements, and while afew were very strong others were equally asweak.

The feature of the forenoon's trading wasthe unusual activity and strength inDenver& Rio Grande preferred, which scored ahandsome advance and held it throughoutthe day. Rumors were afloat,to account forthe movement, that the road was about tobecome a part ofa new through line, but itis understood that the affairs of the com-.pany are now inbelter shape than for years,and the time has come for a movement inthe securities of the road. Lackawanawas also a strong point, but its prominencein he market has been heavily diminishedduring the last two days. The movement ivManhattan seems to have reached its limit,and that stock further retired duringtheday, while amomr the specialties EdisonElectric came to the front with a. large ad-vance onlighttrading. The weakest stock,however, was Distillers, wnich steadily lostground all day long, and showed increasedanimation on the decline. The rest of themarket was quiet all day, and traded in with-innarrow limits.

The close was quiet and steady to firmatsmall losses inmost stocks; Distillers, how-ever, is off 2V2. Louisville and Nashville 1%.and Manhattan 1per cent, while Edison rose4M», Michigan Central 3, Denver &RioGrandepreferred Us, and Lackawanna lt'2.

The Post says: The remarkable discrimi-nation in favor of dividend-paying stocks.-which has characterized the whole of thisweek's market, again controlled the move-ment ofprices today. In one respect themarket contrasted "singularly with that oflast week and the week before. Itwas so farfrom being a professional market, in theusual acceptation of the term, that the ap-pearance of a room trader as the leadingbidder-up ofprices— which happened at thestart in Manhattan— was the signal foranimmediate suspension of other people's pur-chases. Indeed, itcannot be doubted thatat least a large proportion of the roomtraders are enlisted against the present mar-ket; a fact that willnot greatly disturb thosewho have watched the receut achievementsof these worthies.
