HECHT'S SATURDAY DOINGS.
Mr. John Daly, the exiled Iiish pa
triot, arrived in Washington lust oven-
ing: at 10:30 o'clock. He was met at the t
Sixth street depot by a delegation rep-
resenting the un.ted Irish organizations I
of the city, who tendered the distin- j
guished patriot as warm and enthusi- j
astic a welcome as was ever offered a j
visitor on his arrival at the national j
capital. Mr. Daly was accompanied by
Mr. John Devoy, who has been closely '
identified with the former in his fight
for the betterment of the condition of i
the Irish during the last thirty-live
years.
Immediately on the arrival of the
visitors they were driven to the Hotel 1
Xormandie, where an informal recep- i
lion was held. i

The reception committee and the -. is-
itois left the depot in carriages in the j
following order; First carriage, Mr. I
John Daly and Messrs. Haltigan, Me- j
Enemy and O'Brien; second carriage,
Mr. John Devoy and Messrs. Frizzell, ,
J. J. Pursed and Donatus O'Brien: I
third carriage, Messrs. J. T. Ryan, Pat- ,
rick PursJll, Edward Tobln and John 1
O'Mara.
On arriving at the hotel the 'distin- '
guished visitors were shown to rooms
Xos. 20S and 210, which they will occu- j
py while in the city. Shortly Mr. Daly !
and Mr. Devoy descended to the parlor, ,
where they were presented to the mem
bers of the committee individually and 1
also to a large number or Irish-Ameri- j
cans, who had assembled to greet them. ',
In the absence or the Hon. Mr. Maha- ,
ny, who was called to New York today '
on urgent business, the visitors were
presented by Mr. Joseph McEnerny to .
the treasurer of the local arrangements I
committee. 1
In a general conversation wbirii fni ! 1
lowed, during which Mr. Daly told of j I
suffered at the hands of the English. 1
Mr. McEnerny remarked that he should '
be thankful that he is alive. Mr. Daly j
replied: "1 have no thanks to give the I
English for that." Mir. Daly then in a
general way spoke of the way which i
for years he wa hounded down by the ,
British authorities, and this, he said, 1
after "giving them the service of the
b-st years of my 1 fe." ,
Of course, the object of Mr. Daly's
"visit here is well known; it is to create
sympathy for the cause of the Irish,
and incidentally to raise funds for the
centennial celebration, which will take
place in Ireland next year in commem
oration of the "Revolution of 'SS." With ;
this object in view, he is delivering a
series of lectures throughout the United '
States.
In response to the invitation of the !
united Jrish societies of Washington,
Mr. Daly has come to deliver an ad-
dress at the New National Theater on ;

Her majesty's first day was spent

the St. Cloud notel. During the after
noon Queen Lavinia informed Brother

fear of losing the crown manifested It

Largo Increase in Loans Accord
ing to Weekly Statement.
Market yustorday Irregular, Nar
row nnd Weak Washington Ad
vices Caused Ifeallzing.
New York, Feb. 11.- Further advances
in wheat and cotton were gratifying
developments in the situation today,
and a large number of railway tralllc
returns, covering various periods, were
encouraging showings as a rule. The
statement made bi' the Union Pacific
Company was particularly noteworthy,
showing increases both In the net and
gross returns.
The weekly bank statement was pub
lished today and showed a further
large increase in loans and a decrease
in surplus reserves. Cash holdings de
crease f 1, 120,000, a rcllectlon of the cov
ering into the treasury or the Union
Pacific payments, and in consequence
or an increase in deposits of $4,856,000
surplus reserves decreased ?2,3-i4,000.
The banks now bold $32,437,0ri0 above
the lawful requiretucriP!. Today's stock
market was irregular. A buoyant
opening was succcje"dqd
action and the markfct subsequently
by a general re-
strength and
possible at any
of the market
varied rapidly befcweei
weakness. It va not
time to assign definite reasons for the
course of prices.
The early strength
was largely due UJUhe renewed heavy
purchases of stocks b foreign banking
houses, which attained an unusually
large total, but simultaneously with
this buying and subsequently out
weighing it was rthe extensive selling
by local houses, particularly those with
direct Washington connections and
hence credited with exclusive Informa
tion upon the diplomatic situation. The
press dispatches contained nothing of
an alarming nature bearing on the situ
ation but the character of the selling
noted led traders lx infer that addi
tional surprises in relation thereto
might be expected.
The double holiday ahead has the
natural tendency to restrict trading
and in the afternoon there was a mark
ed decrease in activity. Trade was
large in the grangers, with Burlington
in the lead, Louisville and Nashville
was also active. These stocks followed
the general course indicated. The mar
ket closed easy.
Dun's weekly review of trade will say
today:
"Business is pushing toward spring
activity rather eai;ly. Events which
have controlled are good buying of
iron by the largest makers, the rise in
cotton with strength in goods, the great
railway consolidation, and the Cuban
insurrection. The latter, with its possi-
ointies, operates as a brake on specula
tion, nnd foolishness of local traders
gave foreigners a much-desired oppor
tunity to buy stocks on balance about
45,000 shares. Thus, with consolidation
of Central and Lake Shore and others
expected, and with the largest earn
ings ever known in January to life
prices, sl.-aky speculators sold, and
prices were Irregular, nevertheless ad
vancing on the average 1.10 for rails
and 32 cents per share for trusts. Jan
uary earnings $3S,017,417 already report
ed, are 10.G per cent better than last
year. The great consolidations in prog.
ress or in prospect mean far-reaching
changes in railway management to
which Investors are not blind. The de
cision as to Kansas Pacific also has
importance. The output of pig iron on
February 1 was 229,82,1 tons weeklv, the
largest In the history of the business,
but the reported buying of 130.000 tons
Bessemer iron by the Carnegie Com
pany and 100,000 by another of the
largest steel concerns nevertheless
means decision by the ablest manufac
turers that the unprecedented output
of pig iron will soon prove too small for
the growing demand for finished prod
ucts. Kail contracts already cover, it
is said, more than last year's produc
tion, tile railways buying earlier than
usual. The expected wire association
causes some increase in purchases."

Bradstreet's review will say:
"A number of favorable circum
stances and events present themselves
this week. Perhaps the most notable
of these are the renewed activity and
confidence in the iron and steel mar
ket, accompanied by prompt nnd even
rapid advances in several grades of
crude pig iron and steel and the ad
vance in the price of raw cotton long
predicted, but unrealized until the
present week. "What might be regard
ed as a minor feature of the business
situation is a quite general improve
ment in distributive trade and demand
in the central and South. The unfa
vorable features of the week are the
slowness of spring trade In dry goods
to develop at New York and other
Eastern centers, except Boston. Al
though the advance in cotton has been
claimed to be too rapid, it has undoubt
edly imparted a much more cheerful
tone to the Southern business situation.
"Wheat, corn and oats are all higher,
partly on speculation, as are also lard,
pork and beef, sugar and lead. Some
makes of woolen men's-v.ear goods are
slightly higher.
"Prices of lumber, boots and shoes
and tobacco hold recent advance."

The withdrawal or the clique support
on the general Cuban situation, and
perhaps a little to the coming of two
holidays together caused the reaction
tha't was to be expected yes
terday in the stock market.
There was weakness, irregularity
and slowness all day after a little
time at the opening, and the result of
the day's business was a drop of nearly
a full point all around. There is too
much that may happen between now
and the opening on Monday to allow if
any reasonable estimate of the tone of
the market next -week. The situation
at the present time Is all in favor of
further weakness and reactions. It
was noticeable that the houses with
Washington connections were the
heaviest sellers, and it is probable that
there was much manufactured "news"
sent out from her6 on the Cuban situa
tion to make temporary profits on the
short side. Such manipulation is un
fortunate. There is likely to be enough
real news before man days.
The earnings statements yesterday
were the best features of the situation.
There were a large batch of them and
they were almost uniformly good. Cana
dian Pacific earnings for the first week
of February increased $53,000. Texas
Pacific for the same period $20,000. Nor
folk and Western decreased $866. Ches
apeake and Ohio increased $5,800. Union
Pacific for the month of December
showed a net increase of $270,000. The
Nickel Plate reports for the quarter
ending December 31 a surplus of $190,000
against $129,000 last year. Manhattan
earned in the December 31 quarter
$509,000. Ontario and Western earn
ings for the first week in .February de
creased si 500.
The circumstance may be pointed out
as an indication of what may be ex
pected next week in Metropolitan that
the stock of the concern went up 22
points in the five days of this week.
The next indication Is that after all this
gain there was the first hesitancy and

Short Interest Lik;ly to He Piuehed
by Letter.
Chicago, Feb. 11. The strength de
veloped in yesterday's market was re
newed today, the .May sellins up to
9S&c, closing at 974.
Outside markets were all higher,
Liverpool showing an improvement of
?a to Id., and Paris 15 to 25 centimes. The
stimulating feature for the day was the
probability of the shipment mentioned
yesterday of a large portion of the
cash wheat held by the Leiter interests.
If the short interest in May is as large
as estimated shipments of any consid
erable amount of wheat now in store
would give quite a bulge in prices of
options.
The strength in wheat and prospect
of light receipts encouraged liberal buy
ing of corn nearly 2,000,000 bushels hav
ing been taken by local traders this
morning. A further advance in wheat
is of course in favor of better prices for
corn.
