Daily market from the M. L. 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.

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.
Losses lu the condition of oats last
month were small except In Indiana,

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.

William Patterson Tukes Prize.
The clock which was to have been
opened promptly at 3 o'clock yester
day afternoon at the store of C. E.
Wescott's Sons was opened at that
time, and the time at which It had
stopped observed. It had stopped nt
3 o'clock 19 minutes 55 seconds. W.
3. Drown was present, holding the
ticket of William Patterson of Mur
ray, this ticket being the one closest
to the time nt which the clock
stopped. It read 3:53:52. Mr.
Drown received the three green dol
lars, which were offered as a special
prize for the one guessing the near
est to the correct time. The next
opening of the clock takes place on
Wednesday, September 15, at 3
o'clock p. m., when tho same prize
of $3 will be given to the one guess
ing the nearest to the correct time.

sons holding tickets in the store yes
terday afternoon when the clock was
opened, and the manifest fairness
of the matter was noticed. This

one for Wescott's Sons, and is popu
lar. They give a ticket with every
dollar's worth purchased of them,
and the person buying is permitted
to guess tho time at which the clock
will stop, the dial of the same be

time wins the money.
