COMMERCIAL AND
The opening: of the new month brought
a good demand for staples, and trade In
most lines was vyy satisfactory. There
Is an over-supply of some kinds of pro
duce, and some weakness In prices, but?
on the whole, trade Is in such shape that
but few complaints are heard. San Fran
cIbco has received more potatoes recently
than the market would absorb to the best
advantage, and the local market is af
fected sympathetically. Fifty cents was
quoted yesterday as about the best price
for Burbanks, and the demand was only
moderate at that figure. The street failed
to clean up on poultry yesterday, and
from present indications there will be
some liberal stocks carried over today.
Good, live turkeys were offering yester
day as low as 9 cents per pound, and the
top price for dressed was V2& cents. Eggs
are easy at 24 and 25 cents, and butter
Is weak all along the line.

PORTLAND MARKETS.
Grain. Flonr. Etc.
The wheat markets were rather tame
and uninteresting yesterday. Liverpool
was lower, but the East braced up a lit
tle at the close. Locally there was not
much business doing. For Walla "Walla
H and 56 cents was quoted, some buy
ers refusing to go above 55 cents, while
others were willing to pay the top fig
ure mentioned. Freights are holding
steady, with no new business reported
for near-by ships, but an occasional new
crop vessel taken up when offered at a
reasonable figure.

NEW YOR1C STOCK MARKET.
Erratic Strength Dae to Manipula
tion of Professionals.
JCEW YORK, Feb. 1 Fluctuations in
the stock market today were very pro
nounced in a number of cases, and pro
fessional operators were successful in
reviving bullish interest practically as
they saw fit. They resorted to palpable
manipulation at times, in order to ac
quire a following, and after successfully
bidding" up a reading group, realized on
their holdings and began anew In another
quarte. As a '-eult the market dis
played at on' t'n.c o another, proiounceJ

strength In every division. To what ex
tent, if any, the public figured in today's
movements remains conjectural. Reports
of combinations of various properties
continued to be heard, thereby increasing
Interest In the minor railroads, which as
sumed considerable prominence In the
day's dealings. Later In the day a re
port was current that Union Pacific had
secured control of the Southern Pacific.
No official confirmation could be had of
this statement, but the fact that the
market for "Union Pacific boiled for a
time with the stock rising 4 points on
transactions of 225,000 shares, was suf
ficient In itself, according to the views
of the traders, as being authoritative.
It was admitted that a leading interest
in Southern Pacific had sold out to a syn
dicate, presumably representing Union
Pacific. This announcement, coming- on
top of the varied reports about impend
ing dividends, extraordinary earnings,
trade combinations and so on, which
were rife early in the day, threw the
market into excitement and blocks of
from 1000 to 3000 shares changed hands
with as little hesitation as If they were
fractional lots. At the outset, the im
provement in prices which gradually
gained strength was assisted by the
higher range of prices from London. For
eign houses bought early, but subse
quently unloaded about 100,000 shares of
Southern Pacific. That stock strength
ened somewhat after the London selling
had ceased and was practically about the
only issue which did not have a bull
following. During the general selling to
ward the close It sagged to 46Vi, com
pared with 4SV4. the opening figure. A
factor which was instrumental in advanc
ing the market today was the lack of any
gold engagements for tomorrow's steamer,
to Europe. The market for sterling ex
change was called easier this week, de
mand bills selling at $4 87.
The forecast of tomorrow's bank state
ment Indicates a gain In cash of $1,500,000,
exclusive of the probable addition to this
figure by Government disbursements for
Interests, the Sub-Treasury today having
a debit balance of $1,346,940 at the clear
ing house on this account. The gold ex
ports this week of $2,334,000 were entirely
offset by the movement of money from
the Interior, the net gain of this ac
count being $3,533,000. Recurlng to the
stock market, profit-taking became quite
general in the late dealings and material
inroads were made on the highest prices
of the day in some stocks. On the other
hand, there were points of renewed
strength, and the market closed very
animated and Irregular.
Important advances were made In many
prominent bonds today and exceptional
gains were made of G& and 7 points re
spectively In Peoria and Eastern in
comes and Central of Georgia first in
comes. The aggregate transactions footed up
the exceptional figure o'f $7,295,000.
United States coupon 3s declined Yi
per cent on the last call.
The stock market this week has been
largely In the hands of professional trad
ers of abundant resources, and while the
general demand from the outside public
for stock, has been rather languid, the
professionals have been able to manipu
late prices at will. The contest thus in
volved of skill and alertness on the floor
of the Stock Exchange has caused an
erratic and Irregular market and con
siderable show of activity, but it Is doubt
ful whether there has been much actual
transfer of stock ownership.
Circumstances indicate that in more
than one case the advance In the price
of a stock has been part of a plan to
frustrate an intended purchase for con
trol. It Is the belief In Wall street that
such plans, which are held In abeyance
on account of the level of prices which
has been at present attained in the stock
market, would be tenaciously followed up
at the most favorable opportunity. Al
though the officially sanctioned assertion
that the "St. Paul deal" was off somewhat
chilled this confidence, the latter an
nouncement of the proposition for the
transfer of control of Mobile & Ohio to
the Southern Railway revived that con
fidence, as It indicated the continued
pursuit of plans of consolidation and the
transfusion of ownership of railroad prop
erties by the same financier who has
beei the moving spirit in the attempted
Northwestern amalgamation and in the
anthracite field.
The strength showed by the steel stocks
in the face of the week's developments
has somewhat allayed the recent uneasi
ness over the future of the properties
represented by these stocks. The state
ment Issued by the Steel and Wire Com
pany was not regarded as reassuring as
to the trade condltionstdlsclosed, and the
Iron Age frankly admits a disposition to
halt In the trade. Some apprehension
continues to exist concerning the final
settlement of disputes at issue between
the powerful combinations in the trade.
As to the money market, the outflow
of gold is regarded with equanimity, as
it is withdrawn from a fairly plethoric
market. The course of the foreign ex
changes during the week shows 'the in
creased force of London's attraction for
gold compared with Paris,, indicating the
satisfaction of Paris claims in London.
The maintenance of the Bank of Eng
land's discount rate at 5 per cent this
week. In spite of the large recuperation
already effected in Its resources, and Its
continued borrowing from the market In
the face of the market's demand upon
it for loans, shows its purpose to attract
gold to London from New York. This
policy, of course, has In view the coming
flotation of the British war loan. Esti
mates as to the size of this loan-run as
high as $250,000,000 to $300,000,000. The In
crease of the Bank of England's reserves
during January has been entirely from
domestic sources, and it is evidently con
sidered necessary to increase the gold re
serves within the Kingdom before at
tempting to float the wnr loan.
Business in railroad bonds has been
large and at advancing prices.
The abundance and cheapness of money
has thrown investment funds into the
bond market.
United States 3s advanced H per cent
and new 4s 4 per cent over the call
price of a week ago.

CHICAGO, Feb. 1. Wheat was dull and
easy at the opening, under the Influence
of easy cables, liberal Tecelpts and heavy
Argentine shipments. May opened c
lower, at 7a?476Vic, with considerable
pressure on the market from both local
and outside Interests. Early reports of ex
port sales turned the market, however
Shorts became frightened and covered,
with the result that May rallied to 76?gc.
On the bulge, profit-taking became the
order of business, but the close was
steady, May 8c higher, at 76c.
Corn was quiet, with the trade mostly
local, and without features, May closed
c higher, at 39c.
The trade In oats was very light and
the market Independent, responding nei
ther to the early weakness nor to the
latest strength of wheat and corn. May
oats closed c higher.
Provisions were dull, closing fairly
steady. May pork closed a shade lower;

Advance in "Wine.
SAN JOSE, Cal., Feb. 1. A general ad
vance In the price of wines is announced
here. Sweet Wines, especially, fcave gone
up, and are now held from 9 to 12 cents
per gallon higher than heretofore. Clarets
and white wines will be quoted hereafter
-Chamber of Commerce
at an advance of from 5 to 8 cents per
gallon.
Th& cause for this advance Is explained
by the local dealers as due to the reduced
production from drouth -for two- or three
years, and Increased phylloxera. Tho last
vintage especially has felt its ravages.
INSULTED THE DANES.
Action of United States lri 1807 Re
Srardlna; St. John and St. Thomas.
Washington correspondence Chicago Record.
The arrangement with the Danish Gov
ernment about the purchase of Its West
Indian colonies St. Thomas and St.
John Is contingent entirely upon the
consent of Congress and the appropria
tion of $3,000,000 as purchase money. It Is,
a wonder that the Danes will even talk
about si trade after their experience some
years ago. During the Johnson admin
istration an attempt was made tq buy
the islands because the Civil War had
demonstrated that the great military
weakness of the United States was In the
lack., of t a harbor of refuge and a source
of naval supplies in the West Indies.
Negotiations were begun by Secretary
Seward, and Senator Doolittle, of Wis
consin, who happened to be inEurope
at that time, arranged a treaty with the
Danish Government for the sale of the
Islands for the sum of $7,500,000, with the
understanding that the inhabitants
should ratify the transfer.
The Rev. Dr. Hawley, pastor of the
church Mr. Seward attended at Auburn,
N. Y., was sent to St. Thomas as a com
missioner to 'look after the election, tfnd
on the 9th of January, 1867, a vote was
taken with great ceremonies and fes
tivities. On the Island of St. John there
was no dissenting ,vote and on St.
Thomas "only 22 persons cast their ballots
azalnst annexation. When the news
reached Copenhagen tho Parliament rati
fied the treaty without hesitation, but
Mr. Sumner, who was chairman of the
committee on foreign relations of the
United States Senate, put it in a pigeon
hole, where It was forgotten In the excite
ment over the Impeachment of Andrew
Johnson. The following August the
treaty was revived and on .two later
occasions the time for Its ratification by
the United States was extended, but as
ldng as Mr. Sumner remained at the
head of the foreign relations committee
he would permit no action to be taken,
and finally the Dutch Government be
came disgusted and withdrew from tho
arrangement.
The present arrangement, as under
stood here, is conditional upon the ap
proval of the House of Representatives
as well as the Senate, and the appropri
ation of $3,240,000, a much smaller price
than was offered 30 years ago.
Buddhism In China.
Max Mueller in The Nineteenth Century.
The circumstances under which the re
ligion of Buddha was introduced from In
dia to China, are matters of history; and
unless, we mean to doubt everything In
Eastern history for which we have not the
evidence of actual eyewitnesses, the In
troduction Into China of Buddhist teach
ers 'by the Emperor MIngtl In the year 65
A..D. has a perfect right to claim Its
place as a historical event. It may ba
quite true, that thp fame of Buddhism
had reached China, at a much earlier time.
A Buddhist missionary. 4s mentioned' in
tho Chinese annals as early as. 217 B.'-C,
and about the year 120 B. C. a Chinese
General;- after defeating some barbarous
tribes In' the north of the Desert of Gobi,
Is reported to have brought back among
his trophies a goldon tatue of Buddha.
But -It was not till tho year 65 A. D. that
the Emperor MIngtl gave practical ef
fect to his devotion to Buddha and his
doctrines by recognizing 'his religion as
one of the state religions of his large em
pire. It would seem most extraordinary
that the ruler of a large empire in which
there existed already two state religions,
should, without being dissatisfied with his
own religion, have suddenly asked the
teachers of a foreign to settle In his
country, and' there, under tho protection
of the government, to teach their awn
religion, the doctrine of Buddha. The Chi
nese Idea of religion was evidently very
different from their own. Religion was to
them giving good advice. Improving the
manners of the people; and they seem to
have thought that for such a purpose they
could neVer have enough teachers and
preachers. Legend may no doubt have
embellished tho events which actually
took place. No wonder that visions seen
by the Emperor in a dream, were intro
duced; but even such visions would not
help us to explain, what certainly seems
a most extraordinary though real vent
In the history of the world, the Introduc
tion of the Buddhist religion into China
and the rest o Central Asia.
