STOCKS AM ) HONDS.
Operation * In Securities for tlio Outftldn
Account Were Not Important.
NEW YOIIK , March 1. Operations In thn
stock market for outstdo account were nt avery -
very low point today , but a decidedly profes
sional appearance was Imparted to their deal-
Ings. Thd market showed great strength In
the forenoon , but the buying was entirely to
the short account , and when this slacked away
the bears took hold of the list , and the early
advances were In many cases wiped out ,
while a few substantial losses were estab
lished , mid great Irregularity was shown at
the close. The buying nt the opening Vns
very urgent , and especially In Sugar and
Northern Pacllle preferred. An Impression
that considerable surplus will remain after
the payment of 3 per cent on Sugar for the
next dividend had been carefully cultivated ,
and as the charter compels such distribution ,
the hope still remains In some quarters that
an extra dividend will follow.
The shorts bought heavily and the stock
was advanced from 1.M1 } to 12G'j , but as In
other stocks n full supply was found nt the
topllgnres , mid brokers who had been Instru
mental In turning the market the other day
became heavy selleis , and were followed by
the traders with the result of uncovering
many stop bus 01 dors , and Sugar was beaten
down to 121li. A sllu'ht rallj followed , but It
closed with a net loss of l' per cent. A
favorable Interpietatlon was put on the
answer of the Northern Pacllle to tie | report
of the stockholders committee , and Northern
Pacific piefeired was bought freely In the
forenoon until It showed n net gain of 2 per
cent. H resisted the Into decline belter than
most storls on the list , and dually closing at
41 , with a net gain of l'g percent.
There was nothing specially new In Reading
affairs and It took a position second to Sugar In
the market , but was advanced to 28 from
wheio It was driven down to 20. The
reiteration that the .statement will probably
hf Issued tomorrow and make a bad showing
aided In the drop of 2 pc'r cent to 20.
Its llnal change , however , was Insignificant.
The weak spots In the list were found
among the Industrials , hut Cordage was the
prominent example ; It broke 2 per cent In the
early dealings , but rallied above Its opening
price , after which It was again beaten down
nearly 6 per cent , rallying 2 per cent toward
the close , when It still showed a loss of 2j ! per
cent. Distillers was specially strong In the
early dealings , rising 1'4 per cent , but It
dropped away 2 pur cent anil finally closed
wlfh n small loss.
The railroad list , as a rule , showed largo
financial advances during the forenoon , and
Omaha at one tlmo was up ? i percent , but
these gains were generally wiped out , and the
llnal changes were small and Irregular. The
leading operators In the room switched over
to the selling side In the afternoon and the
traders , quickly followed. The lack of outsldo
buying became very evident ami prices
changed readily throughout tbo list. The
effort to cover In the Into dealings stiffened
the market toward the close , which , however ,
was barely steady nt the Improvement.
The Post says : That the current of liquida
tion has for tbo tlmo nearly run Its course
was apparent during the early hours of tbo
stock market today. Several bull pools In the
specialties renewed their operations and this ,
combined with selling by traders against pur
chases made at the recent low levels. Im
parted a brisk buoyancy to the market , which
carried prices up all along the line. The
ellorts or the bears were feelde and futile , and
their operations weio handicapped by the cir
cumstance that they were endeavoring to
maintain prices already unusually low , In the
face of some favorable conditions ,
In the llrst place there Is n growing belief
among operators ( hat the Incoming adminis
tration will offer some solution to the vexed
Inanclal question. This prospective relief ,
combined with n present relief by reason of a
iVeakness In foreign exchange , thus rendering
ess probable any Immediate gold shipments ,
contributed materially to the pronounced rally
n prices.

WiiNisiAV : , March 1.
March opens out with liberal receipts of all
finds of stock. The unusually heavy supplies
vero due to Monday night's blizzard , which
lelayed stock fully twenty-four hours on
icarly all roads. Heceipts for the three days
'oot up 9,017 cattle , 0,930 hogs and 3,008
slieep , against 10,274 cattle , 9,948 hogs and
10,300 sheep the llrst half of last week.
Heceipts of cattto were the heaviest on
record ( or this point. Tbo 299 cars reported
n contained "nearly 7,000 head , the heaviest
irevlous run being 0,781 head , whl'Jli occurred
JctoberlO , 1891. Ily far the greater proportion
of the offerings were beef steers , the quality
as a rule being very fair. The buyers
liad decidedly the best of the situation.
Offerings were far In excess of the require
ments of the trade and eastern markets were
ill lower. There was a good line of buyers on
liand , but prices naturally ruled lower. The
good the choice heavy cattle that the shippers
were after and the handy fat grades that just
tinted the dressed beef men sold early about a
: llmo lower than Tuesday. Medium and com
mon grades were In tpdln'oient demand and
considerably lower from the start , and after
the llrst round ( no market got worse and bids
were lOe to20o loweivon all grades. Sellers
weie slow to accent the situation and trading
dragged along all day , the market closing
weak with a good many unsold , Good
to choice 1,200 to lCOO-lb. beeves sold at
from W.00 to J5.2.ri.with fair to good 1.000 to
1,200-lb steers at from $ I toil.00. Poor to
fair stuff was neglected and a drug on the
market at from * 3 tOJ4. ,
llutcher stuff and dinners were In active de
mand and sold at uboiH steady prices notwith
standing the heavy run. In faet good to
choice cow.s and heifers In many cases sold at
materially stronger prices from $3.40 to * 4.20.
L'ommon and canning grades sold from Oc to lOe
lower In many casOhat from $1.00 to $ ' 2.20 , but
Hie bulk of the falnto good cow.s and heifers
sold at right aroundTuesday ! prices from $2.00
to $3.20. There whs-no particular change to
the market for bulls ! oxen aluTstags , prices
ruling fully steady tit from $2.30 to $4.25.

Mr. Michael Cudahy , not content with his
business at South Omaha and Kansas City
has cast his eyes coastward and proposes to
erect : v slaughtering house In Los Angeles ,
which he hopes will eventually control the
Pacific coast country , now supplied by
Omaha , Kansas City and Chicago.
In addition to securing permission to erect
the necessary slaughtering houses in Ix > s
Angeles ho has bought the Nadeau ranch ,
about four miles distant from the
southwest limits of that city. Kvor.v
acre Is good land , mid much of It is virgin ,
and upon none of it has anything s.ivo barley
mid alfalfa been grown. It is all excellent
for alfalfa , on which hogs thrive as well as
upon corn , and into that It all is to be thrown.
as Mr. Cudahy has bought this ranch , pay
ing spot cash for it $180.000.
Another ranch ot ii.OOO acres that adjoins
this one is likely to bo sown to alfalfa when
the business of raising hogs will commence.
AH acre of this food will support liftccn
hogs , with something over for cattle or
horses. Mr. Cudahy says that in thrco
years ho will have 40,000 head on his ranch.
The neighbor ranch'Will ' have more and about
twenty miles distant there is another ranch
of 20,01)0 ) acres that now renls at $1 an acre
to different growers of barley , that will , If
the market for hogs is not then supplied , bo
changed into an alfalfa farm and stocked.
Then the great p.ekcr will have under his
control , in three divisions , a hog nasturo
containing > , SOO acres. In it will bo Il'jT.OOO
swine.
There is opposition in Los Angeles against
his invasion , hut Mr. Cudahy is not to bo
hindered. He has announced that ho thinks
ho has in progress a gooil thing , and that ho
is prepared to stay with it. As if to make
his Jlxedness of purpose moro plain he has
purchased a ! 0,000 residence for himself
during one-half the year.
