.MUBIEL'S STORMY VOYAOE.
Fourteen Days of Severe Gales.
Snow, Hail and Lightning.
Port Townsend, Wash.. Jan. 16, The
schooner Muriel, after being buffeted
about on tempestuous seas for forty
days in trying to reach Hakodate from
Kobe, has arrived here almost stilppcd
of sails and some of her spars gone.
The Muilel sailed from Kobe for Hako
date with a cargo of sulphur.
After leaving Kobe the Muilel en
countered severe gales for fourteen
days, at the expiration of which she
found herself some hundreds of miles
further away from her destination than
on the clay she sailed, with sails tat
tered and torn and some of her spars
carried away. In this condition Cap
tain Carleson deemed it impossible to
reach Hakodate with his ship In that
condition, and sailing befoie gales, with
what reefing sails he had, lie headed
for Puget Sound.
On ono ocension, during the first four
teen da,-s out. Captain Caileson icpoits
having cncounteied a severe storm of
snow, hall and lightning. Tho night
was very dark and the wind was blow
ing with hurricane force. Sleet and
hall rattled on the deck, which, with
the force of the wind, endangered the
lives of the sallcis. Gieat sheets or
lightning swept the sea. and at timet.
It appeared that the vessel was salllm;
In a sea of flie. Captain Carleson says
that was tho most feaiful expeilenee
ho over had duiing his life at sea.
IBON AND STEEL FOB CHINA.
Shipments to the Orient Have
Helped to Raise Prices.
San Francisco. Jan. 16. Chailes L
Wagoner, of Pittsburg, Pa., who !s
latgely Interested In iron and steel ship
ment from this city, said:
"Overland shipments via this poit to
China, Japan and Slbeiia. ate monopo
lizing all the available ship room. Im
mense supplies for the Eastern Chinese
railway and other branches of the gieat
trans-Slbeilan road have been foi
warded from this countiy. Those facts
account somewhat for the jump In tho
pilces of steel and Iron, as tho cxpoits
to the Oilent increased from $300,000 for
eleven months in 1S9S, to $1,700,000 for
the corresponding months of last veur.
Thcro was an Increaso In the exports
of almost all classes of machinery, es
pecially agricultural implements and
scientific apparatus.
'Tho cotton cloth trade with China
shows an increase of about $3,000,000
for tho first eleven months of last year,
as compared with the corresponding
period of 189S."

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
Now York, Jan. 16. Professional oper
ations In stocks fell away considerably
tndny and as there Is no other Interest
In the market tho dealings made further
progress towards a condition of Htitgna.
tlun. Thcro was somo slight speculation
In Sugar, Tobacco nnd the local trnctlons,
but these represented little more thnn
"swapping Jack knives" among tho board
room tnulers, ns maybe Judged from the
dnv's smnll net changes. Thcso specu
lative favorites nro higher on the dav
after various fluctuations. Thero Is no
better Indication of their having gono up
than that they went down jesterdny.
Thero vvns evidence of a desire on the
part of tho shorts to cover In Tobacco,
which pulled It up' sharply In tho Into
dealings and tho rest of tho market with
It. It was emphatically a waiting mar
ket and It was bv no means clear what
It was waiting for. The fact that the
dullness was sbnred by tho other great
speeulatlvo centers of tho world gives
point to tho supposition thnt tho devel
opment of conditions In South Africa Is
annltcd. Money conditions continue to
mnko progress towards greater ease all
oxer tho world, without the slightest ef
fect on speculation. A period of stng
nation nfter so drastic; a liquidation an
that of last month Is by no means unique
o? abnormal, without counting tho South
Afrlcnn situation. It Is very generally
believed that a Btltlsh sticeiss there
would causa a sharp rallv In prices, If
for no other reason than from tho cov
ering demand by tho bears, who have
sold tho market In spite of skepticism
over nnv early chnnge In the situation.
It would bo necessary to go back two
vears to tho time of uncertainty preced
ing our war with Spain to find u parallel
for tho I'bsolute listlessness or patient
waiting which are tho characteristics
of tho current stock market. Hates for
tlmo money were shaded below C per cent,
on choice collateral under the Influence
of tho large accumulation of reserves
which Is coming Into tho New York
bnnks. Total sales today 06,300 shales.
Dealings In bonds were on a Inrger sealo
than those In stocks and prices were
more llrmly held. Occasional large In
dividual transactions reflect tho con
tinned flow of capital Into fixed Invest
ments. Total sales, par value, $l,KG5,ono.
