Totals 101 7,417 CATTLE There were only a few cars of cattle ln the yards this morning and not many of those were on sale. The market could not be quoted any more than steady. For the week receipts have been quite liberal, as there Is an increase over laat week of about 7,000 head and aa compared with the same, week of last year the gain amounts to about 6,000 head. The market on cornfed steers has been rather uneven all the week, prices fluctua ting up and down quite rapidly. At tho uun vil wwfk, iiuwcvdi, iiiw ptiiiorai market la not over IO&I60 lower than a week ago. One thing that has helped out the market this week to quite an extent as been the liberal shipping demand, men went a long way toward off setting the liberal receipts. The most of tne cattle coming rorwara are only or fair quality, though occasionally a well finished uncn arrives. (Jood to cnoioe oattle are quotable from 84. 65 to 35.00 and a strictly prime bunch would bring a little more than nat. rair to good cattle sen largely from 34.26 to 84.80 and oommon to fair - from 83.50 to 34.00.- . The cow market has followed very much the same course aa the trade on steers. There has, however, been an exceptionally goou aemana lor choice lightweight heirers all the week and such kinds can safely be quoted steady for the week. Canners nave also shown very little change. Good heavy cows and medium gradea of all weights are generally 1016c lower than at ne close cf last week, canners and cut ters are selling largely from 32.00 to $2.40, fair to good from 12.50 to $3.15 and good to choice from $3.25 to $3.75, with some thing fancy In the cow or heifer line a little higher than that. The bull market has been dull all the week. Bologna bulla have not been hard o dispose of at prices rantrlne: from 12.50 to $2.75. Big fat bulls have been very low sale at from K.td to U.Zo. or. ln other words, packers do not want to pay much more tor good to choice fat bulls than they do for the bologna grades. It takes some thing fancy to bring 1B.Z5. , occasionally a sale will be quoted, as high as $3.50, or even Ki.uo, but that is usually a bull that was sold In with a load of steers and welirhed separately. Veal calves have been ln good uemana an tne weeg at uncnangea prices. They sell largely from $4.60 to $5.50, with an occasional aale at $6.76. The atocker and feeder market was active ana nigner tne nrat or tne week, but closed Qua anj lower, as tne country railed to buy the oattle at the higher Drioee aaked. The decline amounts to fully a quarter and in a great many cases me toes is even greater than that. Good to choice cattle are selling largely from $8J0 to $4.00, fair to good from $3.40 to $3.60 and oommon turf from 13.40 aown. HOGS There was a fair run of hogs here this morning, which makes the supply for the week a little In excess of both last week and the same week of last year. As a result 01 ineso uuerai runs tne tendency of the market has been downward most nil the week, ana with todays decline the average cost goes below $6.00 for the first time In several weeks. The net loss for the week amounts to imtjoc unfavorable reports were received this morning from other points, and as a result packers continued their bearish (actlca nt thia market also. The market opened ex tremely Blow and rVfilOe lower than yester day a general market. Trading, though was so siow tnat tne morning waa well advanced before many hoga crossed the scales. It Is to be noticed that hors welvh. tng from 200 to 126 pounds are selling to much better advantage than they were a short time ago, the tendency being for them to come closer to the heavy weights man waa tne cnae a snort time ngo. A spread of 16o now catches tho bulk of the hogs, only those weighing less than 200 pounds selling below and the very choicest heavy bogs going above those flgurea. The big bulk of the hogs today sold from 4 80- t.OO, with choice neavlea mostly at fSOfi, witn a top at is.rn. xne light aturr aold from 84.90 down. The cloae or tr.e market wu verv slow and weak, though most of the hogs were oisposea ot by noon. Representative sales Mo. 10...

OMAHA REAL ESTATE NOTES Rcul estate men unite In the opinion that Omnh.t has not enough modern coungra for rent. Tho expression cf The Dee of somo weeks ago that this field for Invest ment Is most attractive Is now being echoed by all. Tenants for ';ven and rlplit- ronm modern cottages are more plentiful than the cottages, and the demand Is growing rather than decreasing. Mr. George O. Wallace, president of the Real F.state excliango, sixes up the week as follows: Two sales this week attracted consid erable attention. The first, the sale of the Kountse Memorial church property at Six teenth nnd Harney to Judge Neville takes out of the market one of the best corners In the business center. Whether this sale is advantageous to the development of South Sixteenth street, or, for that matter, to the development of Omaha'g business center, depends upon what the purchaser will do with that corner In the way of Im provements. If he ruts up an ordinary two or three-story building, or, for that matter, anything less than a Ave or aix- story, strictly modern block, the purchaso hss hepn nn unfortunate one for that part of the retail business district. This is one of the finest corners In Omaha for a first- class office building, or for a combined mercantile and office building; stores occu pying the first and possibly second and third floors and good offices on the floors above. This corner would readily carry an eight or ton-story building, and. If strictly modern, would be filled aa soon as completed. "The Immediate needs In new buatnesa structures are two good, well finished rooms for stores and up-to-date offices. Every office building In town is now full. and every day there ore Inquiries for more offices. Landlords aro raising rents on nffixa tenants reolllrln the OCCllpatltS OI their buildings to double up to make roo.n for newcomers, and yet there is a steady call for more offices. This is tne next development required In business blocks. Neither will It do to build a cheap or in ferior office building. The new buildings for the purpose must be better than those we have, with greater conveniences, nnd more eleeantlv furnished. There Is the same evolution ln this line as In rest denees. Few well-to-do business men care to live In the same kind of a house tliey lived In fifteen years ago-, they want some thing more modern. So the business man ,. . . . 1 nninA rAnv wnnti nnd is Willing to Pay lor a more muuciii than that he hns been occupying, w m.o . . , ni in i,t more. It will rent u l 1 1 m iniHuniR ..... - " - ' - . . .. . m 1.0 in Kaiiar niv hatter and Will always be in , demand. Th other purchase, which excites Inter . ,. i, . enoeh In "t because It marks a new epoen in Omaha's development. Is the sale Of trie Thurston nronertv at Twenty-fourth and Fa mam to the Hamilton. The new owner propose to erect a great apartment block, whih will ecllDse in sixo. finish and con- venlence anything of this kind ln Omana.

Important epoch In the citj s 8l"; Whnt wo have In that line Is proving verj profltablo, as Btich buildings flo everywnere. Thero is a waiting llBt for every nai duuu- - . . hstter site In Omaha for such a block.

The construction in tne next few years of even half that numbej; will force huslnesa up to Twenty-rourin i leasf. Perhaps It Is the beginning of the fulfillment of a prophecy made some years ago by a shrewd real estate investor, that the younger men then In active busi ness would, many of them, live to see Omaha develop and grow until Twenty fourth street would be the leading norm and south business etreet as Sixteenth street waa then."

Mr. Tukey predicts that Omaha will repeat the same process S -IaiiaI ahvwi n m r 4T s tat vnaa ririfVH ft Or T n faaa nP "i ucvrn,iinc. four years. We are fairly wen. enterea upon It now and the demand for property Is about all we can reasonably expect. The demand Is healthy and our people have money to Invest and are no longer afraid to put It Into real estate. Values aro low, but steady, with a tendency upwards. W have no causa to complain of the situation Recent sales reported by W. Farnam Smith A Co. are ns follows: "Cottage an lot at 709 South Nineteenth street to Ame lla Illlja, for an Investment: two cottage 1760 and 1762 Bouth Ninth street, to Frank Krlss, for an Investment; residence at 621 South Twentieth street to W.

R SITUATION IS PRECARlOtS Generally Understood .tat French Ministry is Ciuti.b'irf. Away. TROUBLES DUE TO SOCIALIST MEASURES While Premier fiiiimba May Ha I'a iloae It Is Expected that Mia- ( latrr Itrlcnnae Will Be lletalacd. PARIS, March 20.-The situation ef Pre- mlir Combes' ministry Is gradually becom ln8" rrecai l.nis ns n irault i f Its recent par- llamentary reverses. It ta not considered that any immediate crisis will occur, but even the best Informed government quar ters describe the ministry as gradually crumbling away. Some of the recent ma jorities have been below the 1-ndltIonal twenty, which Is the limit ot safety. The frrndual sapping of M. Combes' strength Is not duo to the pending law sup pressing nil forms of congregational teach ing. ns his mnjorttlca have, been steadily maintained on that question, but the diffi culties are mainly due to socialist measures for klngnien'B pensions nnd employment nuenclcs. It Is snld he will be nhlo to pnsa the law of congregations about Eaater, and with this principal work accomplished It la not expected that he will wish to remain ln ofllre. The names cf Miller and Ktlenne are tha most often mentioned .11 connection with the pnsslblo reorganisation of the ministry. There Is little doubt thnt the foreign minis ter, Delrnsse, will remain, ns he In consid ered to be the strong man of the present ministry, and his recent treaty achieve ments nre regnrded as placing him among the first afntenmen of contemporary Franc. POPE INCREASES TENSION fanatic. Criticism of French roller Will Change Prcaldent Lonbet'e Pinna Wbtle at Itome. PARIS. March 20.-Tra pope' caustlo criticism of French polity, In the coura of his address to the. cardinals yesterday. Is receiving serious attention In the high est qunrter here. It wa first thought thnt tho unofficial reports of the pope's utterances might be overstated, but ths official version fully bears out the gravity of his remarks. They related chiefly to pnat ond prospec tive lnws for the suppression of teaching by the religious orders. The pope charac terized some of the steps as contrary to liberty and civilization, and he also criti cised the arraignment of three French cardinals before the council of state for writing letters to President Loubet agalnt the proposed extension of law, Tha remarks of tho pope give additional certntnty that M. Loubet will not mnks a call at the Vatlonn during his coming; visit to Rome. The plans for the presi dential trip do not Include Btich a visit. A prominent personage says President Loubet will go tj Rome more like Charle mngne, ss a tepresentntlve of authority Instead of dependence. The visit wfll also be notable In breaking the long atandlnff custom that the visit of the rular of a Catholic country to Rome required a visit to the Vatican. The tenalon belwecn France and ths Vatican promises to be offset by a strength ening of the bonds between France and Italy, particularly concerning thelf Medi terranean Interests. The visit will follow the conclusion of the Franco-Italian arbi tration treaty, which Is another link In tha International understanding which Francs recently has been establishing.
