MARKETS OF THE WORLD Local, Eastern and Foreign Commercial Dealings WALL STREET SPECULATION Argentine Wheat and the Decline of Farm Products The Administration and the Position of Sil ver—Changes Noted in Prices of Prod ucts Produced Locally Argentina lias been a very formidable oompetitor for the wheat trade ot Europo in the past year. In 1894, that country exported 57.600,000 bushels; in 1896, 37,600,000 bushels, while this year it ls estimated at only 20,000,000. A speaker at the Midwinter fair in San Francisco made the statement that owing to cheap land, cheap labor, cheap transportation and the premium on stold, Argentine farmers growing wheat on a large scale could lay the grain alongside •hip at tidewater for 16 cents a bushel, gold. A line ot railroad runs from the foot of the Andes to the ship's side, 212 mile* over a plain so level that there is not a curve in Its whole length, nor a cut nor a fill of over three feet. The descent is so uniform, only enough steam is required to ■ ton and start and control the brakes.

The annual production of wheat in this country is 510,000,000 to 520,000,000 bushels 1 Year. Of this the exports amount to 133. --000,000 to 150,000.000 bushels a year. The average corn crop is 1,750.000.000 bushels. The loss at 33 cents a bushel on wheat and 14 cents a bushel on corn is a very serious one. Seeretar/ John G. Carlisle in a recent letter to Mr. Patterson, a member of con gress from Tennessee said: "Since the beginning of this administra tion, nearly $110,000,000 in gold has been produced in exchange for other forms of currency. Of this amount. $8,913,812 has been procured in exchange for silver coin, and $10,015,330 in exchange for silver certifi cates. The department has never refused to exchange silver for gold when It had sliver that could be lawfully used for that purpose, ana If it had so refused I am wholly unable to see how it could be con sidered a discrimination against silver. Is a refusal lo pay out gold in exchange for silver a discrimination against gold? If not, it of course follows that a refusal to pay out silver for gold is not a dfscrlm inarion against silver. "In response to your verbal inquiry con cerning the coinage of standard sllverdol lars during the present administration, you are advised that it amounts to the sum ot' $6,662,000 up lo the 15th day of this month, while tiie whole amount of such dollars coined In this country from the establish ment of ihe Mint. In 1792. up to February. 1878. a period of eighly-six years, was $8,030,000." Current Quotations In local produce eggs are higher, extra select, all candled in a small way, selling at 13U cents.

ON 'CHANOE Buslneis Transacted and Prices Paid at Hosse and Abroad NEW YORK. April 14.—A further in crease in trading was noted today in the slock market and there are indications of commission house buying to a moderate extent. Interest centered In the Indus trials. London came lower for Americans, but the local market opened animated and strong. Trading was affected by the con siderations that have recently been noted, the seasonable weather, ease of money, weakness in exchange, more encouraging advices aa to the crop outlook and a belief that no disturbing elements are likely to occur In the near future regarding the Cuban question. The market at the outset was quiet, but the movement decreased Later and the afternoon operations were only of moderate interest. The reports denoting the substantial position of the sugar industry and buying of the stock by the pool have caused considerable anx iety on the part of the shorts, as the manip ulators appear to be able to manipulate the price at will. Sugar rose 1% per cent to 123, closing with a net gain of a point. The advancing tendency in the general market was checked at times by profit tak ing, but the depression was only momen tary. Such of the railways as were active fluctuated with narrow ranges. In the final dealings general realizations caused fractional recessions and Imparted an easier tone to the closing. The ex changes recorded slight gains as a rule. Railway bonds were active and higher on a wide distribution of business. The more substantial gains were scored ihe usu ally inactive issues. Central Washington firsts trust receipts jumped 1% per cent to 52 on the prospects of favorable treat ment in the Northern Pacific reorganiza tion. Government bonds were strong on sales of $85,000.

BOSTON QUOTATIONS. _ ~ BOSTON, April 14.—Atchison. 1614; Bell Telephone. 202; Burlington, 78%; Mexican, 9%; San Diego, CHICAGO MARKET The Day's Transaction* on tho Bo»rd of Trade CHICAGO, April ll— There was Just a fair speculative trade in wheat. Tne start was strong at %©%c advance, and gradually sagged back %c. rallied %c, de clined l%c and closed steady. The early firmness was Influenced some by the higher cables, both English and continent al, Liverpool, according to public advices, showing %d advance. Berlin and Parts Also showed moderate gains. There was a falr-sixed out inspection and crop dam age claims from Ohio which also imparted some strength to the situation. At the advance offerings were larger, especially of July, there being considerable selling by the elevator interests and exports mak ing a disappointing showing, caused early buyers to sell and prices receded. The weather continues the all-important fac tor, the warm showery conditions in the winter wheat states having a bearish in fluence. Another influence which aided the decline was the sharp drop in prices at St. Louis which was said to be due to the change in the rules regarding the delivery on contracts of Kansas hard wheat. Northwestern receipts were much larger than a year ago, and there were selling or ders here from that section. The signal service preuicted favorable weather for the winner wheat belt, but not so for the Northwest, where snow flurries and colder weather are indicated. Advices from parties now traveling through the Southwest stated that the crop in Southern Indiana and Illinois looked much better since the late rains. The market rallied on the good buying by room traders. The very free selling at the advance caused tho sharp reaction to Inside prices. When hold ers wanted to realize they found there were no buyers and a heavy feeling result ed, the very limited export clearings and the fine growing weather making buyers cautious and longs sold. There was a little more doing in corn. Prices kept within 'ie range. The close was steady at yester day's price. Oats were active only at In tervals. The feeling was easier, influenced by free offers and sympathy with wheat. Provisions were upheld for a time by the demand for pork by those who were short. That sustaining Influence was not sufficient to bold up lard and ribs in the latter part of the session. CHICAGO. April 14.—The leading futures closed as follows: Wheat No. 2—April. 64%; May, 60; June, CHICAGO LIVESTOCK. CHICAGO, April 14.—Today's transac tions in cattle were at barely steady prices, with comparatively few sales above $4. Choice cows and heifers. $2.500 3.70; bulls, $1.750 3-25: calves in liberal supply at lower prices. There was a fairly good demand for hogs today, all kinds except light weights average 6c lower. Sales were on a basis of $3.350 3.80 for heavy.. Prices were, steady at $2.750 3.75 for poor to strictly choice sheep and $3.8504.60 for lambs.

BOSTON WOOL MARKET. ROSTON, April 14.—Business has been confined to the sales of small lots in the wool market here this week. The market shows an entire lack of demand and with this feeling prevailing prices are somewhat fluctuating and the buyer in need of wool has no trouble in securing what he requires at his own figures, if they are anything within reason. Dealers are now in hope of improvement in the market for the new clip and prospects of doing better after the fall elections. Dealers express the opin ion that the election of a Republican presi dent will help values.
