Wil liams Commission company, Coates block, riattsmouth, Neb.: Wheat Market opened this morn ing slightly higher than last night's close in sympathy with the advance in corn. There was also favorable foreign cables. Later In the day the market was some stronger. The effect of the government crop report was not marked in this cereal, as it was not nearly so unfavorable as it was toward corn. A sharp upturn caused by shorts covering In the closing minutes of the session advanced prices strongly. Corn Market opened l-2c higher than last night's close and quickly advanced all along the line, May selling up beyond 62c. The full ef fect of the tremendous reduction in the estimated yield, as shown by the government report, Is commencing to be felt. Foreign cables indicated the effect of the government report on the market there and assisted In aiding the advance. The tremendous Iofs In the past few months has re duced the total probable crop below that of last year, which Is a strong bull argument. Oats The market Is slightly higher than at the close yesterday owing to sympathy with corn, as the figures in the report do not Indicate any reasonable cause for the ad vance outside of this. The market Is not high enough to warrant expecta tions of any material advance in this cereal in the near future. Hogs Market opened strong with hogs 5c higher. Receipts 12,000 head, against 19,000 head, estimated. Hogs a year ago 14,000; 4,200 left over. Cattle Market strong and steady. Receipts 4,500 head. Sheep Market strong with re ceipts of 17,000 "head. tj Wenllu'r Map. IMncis-Ohio valley, 64 to 72; cloudy. Des roinese, trace. Daven port, .02; rain. Duluth, .024; rain. Peoria, .04. Chicago, .04.

The Inter-Ocean says: A loss of over 500,000,000 bushels In the pros pective corn crop was made In the last two months. It Is about the largest loss In any year. The reduc tion last month was 341,000,000 bushels, nnd on the present indica tions the total crop, based on govern ment figures, is 61,000,000 bushels less than the final crop last year. It was the greatest disappointment that the country has had, because the early promise was the best In years, Indicating a record crop of close to 3,117,000 bushels. The loss has been due to extreme heat and drouth, the excessive supply of moisture early in the season preventing the crop from making substantial root and putting It into condition, where it could not withstand a long, dry spell. In the seven surplus states the crop Is esti mated at 290,000,000 bushels less than u month ago, yet 80,000,000 bushels more than last year and 32, 000,000 bushels in excess of 1 907. Oats In the oats crop there was a reduction of 20,000,000 bushels in the Indicated yield last month, but an Increase of 172,000,000 bushels over the final figures last year. The pres ent Indications, if confirmed, will make the crop the second largest on record. The record crop of 987,000, 000 bushels In 1902. Thirteen lead ing states were cut down 17,000,000 bushels last month, but have a prom ise 173,700,000 bushels over last year, and an Increase of 207,800,000 bushels as compared with 1907.

Board cables opening: Wheat, 3-8 to l-2c higher; corn l-4c higher. At 1:30 p. m. wheat was 1-8 to l-4c higher; corn l-4c higher. Droomhall cables Wheat: The strength in the American market yesterday and the Russian offering support made the outlook for winter and spring wheat easily 20,000,000 bushels larger than last year, caused shorts to cover and values at the start were 3-8c to l-2c higher. Fol lowing the opening the market further gained on higher American offerings, and an Increased demand for spot. Toward midday the mar ket developed some pressure owing to a feeling of skepticism degardlng the estimate, the correctness of the Russian report and September lost 3-8c. At this time the market was euc'er and 1-8 to l-4c higher than yesterday. Corn was steady at the start and 1 -4c higher, being affected by the American government report. Later the market became easier on the pressure to sell La Plata parcels. Primary movement Corn: Re ceipts 1,069,000, ngains 694,000; shipments 338,000, against 39,000.
